…and I’ve even used it for some multimedia software projects: My first software deliverable after graduating from University: A multimedia promo for family album software. …and I’ve done other live gigs with it (that’s me in the pink wig)… Stephen Skratt, me, and Karl Mohr jamming on keyboards in 1999. I bought the Wavestation from my friend, Canadian TV/film composer Stephen Skratt, back in 1993, when I was playing keyboards in a band with my schoolmates at Crazy Go Nuts University… Me, circa 1992.
The Wavestation series of synths set itself from the other synths of the era by using a technology called wave sequencing, which could be described as building sounds by pasting sequences of different waveforms together, in a way similar to George Martin’s cut-and-paste approach to the calliope sounds on the Beatles’ Being for the Benefit of Mr. The Korg’s Wavestation A/D is the rack-mount version of the Korg Wavestation EX keyboard synth, which in turn is a revised and expanded model of the original Korg Wavestation.
Over the years, I’ve bought and then sold or given away a number of synths, but there’s one that I kept: A Korg Wavestation A/D. Long before I became an accordion player, I was a synth player. The Korg Wavestation A/D The best damned synth of 1991.
