Seems like this is the way to go... freedom from being chained to a CPU:

I used to have a Poly6 made of metal and plastic, with real knobs and keys...   now, why did I sell it ?  Oh yes.....

No midi

These ones have got midi and you don't trip over them when they are stashed in the hallway.
 
I love me some Korg Legacy collection.
 
The digital ones (M1 and Wavestation) are even better because they are pretty much exact clones of the hardware.
 
$50 for an actual M1, I remember my mate picking one up from Charing Cross Road for £1500 IIRC and being totally blown away by getting such a bargain....

+1 JB
I too have the M1 which is an excellent and very useful synth. It was a difficult decision on selecting just one as their whole Legacy collection are top notch. Well done on the Mono/Poly Rain!!
 
(Now if I can only figure out how to play with two left hands......)

I use to own the Korg Poly 6 and the M1. Sold both of them, good to know I can get em both in software format for about $4,000 less than what I paid.  Both hardwares have way less polyphony compared to the software versions....  I might get the Poly, M1 and Wavestation. 

IIRC, Korg has a (yearly) sale where you could get all 3 for $99......I think during spring/summer??

Good to know. :)

Since I bought my first hardware Wavestation back when they were new I can't be without one. I love my software version near to death. I know you're gonna love your Mono Poly too!! Have fun.

Seems I picked the right time - KORG has just announced that their plugs were finally 64 bit, minutes ago. :)

Ol Pal, you're making it difficult for me to resist - that Wavestation looks like something I could spend days messing with. The sound of that thing is amazing. 

Allegedly, it does sound pretty much exactly like the real thing - I couldn't tell, I've never worked w/ one, but it does sound familiar, as such an infamous beast should. (Reviewers noticed minor differences in a couple of others like MonoPoly, which were modernized a bit.)

The Poly 6 is a good choice, but yeah man you may as well go for Wavestation  go get em man!! 

I listened to the demos of Poly 6 and WaveStation on YouTube, they both sound great.  The Wavestation is ideal for creating interesting 'moods', adding nice changes in the arrangements.  

Yeah, I guess I could do w/ something that sounds a bit more "modern". I'm starting to see how I could incorporate some of that in my own music.

The great thing about the WS plug is that it contains ALL the banks from the ROMS and RAMS of all the different models.
