“It’s not often you get to buy a synth owned previously by Nine Inch Nails / Trent Reznor.

I can post this with DPD tracked to your door or you can collect in person from Blandford Forum, Dorset or Bournemouth, Dorset if easier.

This Korg DW-8000 was bought from the band’s official ebay site ‘ningear’ back in 2009 when Nine Inch Nails sold their studio and tour gear after calling it quits (thankfully they reformed later!).

I’ve included the original pictures from the auction so you can compare or for a bit of reassurance this is a genuine sale. The serial number matches up with the serial from the listing. You can find numerous sites online still like NME which mention the band and selling their equipment through ningear. I also have the confirmation email from ebay when the auction was won originally if you need to see it, I’ll obviously forward you a copy too. ” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“Korg DW8000 Classic polyphonic synthesizer. 1985. Fully working. Lovely condition. Been looked after well. Had this since 1990’s. 8 note poly synth with aftertouch. This is a hybrid synth because it uses digital single cycle waveforms to trigger the digitally controlled analogue oscilators. As well as the usual saw, square, tri .its got approximations of other instruments which gives it more scope for sonic variation. the filters are powerful self resonating analogue with its own character. This synth can sound big dark and deep. Has loads of editing parameters with full midi control. also has a lovely arpeggiater. Manual and original power cord.”

“I acquired this along with a load of other bits of vintage audio gear, and I can’t get this running sadly. It’s not totally dead, you power up and you can hear the output relay energise after a few seconds, but that’s about your lot. I suspect the CPU itself has died, but if you have a spare board or know these synths in details…

The Keyboard as a whole is complete, but it is missing all the screws that hold the casing together – the previous owner had obviously took it apart and put the screws somewhere safe, known only to him. If you’re thinking of having a go with it, then this is as far as I got:

PSU – Replaced the 7905 and 7805 regulators, powers up fine and gives correct voltages as per the service manual. Also replaced mains switch and re-wired although currently on a flying lead as I don’t have the correct C-9 mains connector, although one on order so will be here by the time this auction ends.

CPU board – Battery had corroded, removed battery cleaned PCB and fitted new battery with a holder. Left overnight to completely empty ram, still would not fire up. Powered up just the CPU board externally on the bench, not drawing excessive current on any of the supplies. Tried also pressing 5 + 8 on power up etc.. nothing, hence the assumption that the CPU is dead.” Click here to visit listing on eBay

Case is dusty and awesomely vintage. Rips around the edges

When I flip the switch the power lights flicker on and off. I don’t know if it’s a blown fuse or a loose wire but it could be an easy fix. Someone along the way had dropped this and it shows signs of damage. I think it’s in the right hands could be fixable for somebody that knows what they’re looking at.” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“This is a Korg DW 8000 Digital Waveform Synthesizer with Analog Filter. It has been meticulously serviced. I added the super rare Angel City Turbo Mod last year, but sadly I couldn’t get the sticker for the front face. The Turbo Mod’s manual is included. The internal battery has been replaced, and a new battery and holder is included.. Also included is the original EPROM, as is all kinds of extra key pads, inputs, and any other spare parts I have.

I loved this synth. It was one of the first I ever purchased, and I’ve babied it since then. I hate to see it go, especially since I never got to play around much with the Turbo Mod. Hope someone loves it as much as I do! ” Click here to visit listing on eBay

As for the unit it’s self, it is in used condition, some of the haul is scuffed and dinged but the manuals are in great shape, less some mild yellowing. Every function of the keyboard works as intended: voice and envelope editing, filter, delay, and tape.” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“This auction is for a fully functioning Korg DW-8000 synthesizer. This synth is a part of ’80s history and marks an interesting change when synths were going digital, but still had analog amplifiers (VCAs) and analog filters (VCFs).

I did some maintenance on this synth a year ago, including:

All 22 front panel switches were replaced. All buttons work perfectly with no glitching.
The battery was replaced and a battery holder was installed to make the battery easier to replace in the future. (See photos.)
The Program Up and Damper jacks were replaced. (These are the gold plated jacks in the photos.)
The original factory presets were re-loaded.
A new 8-foot power cable was purchased and is included with this sale.
I am an electrical engineer and did all the rework myself.

Aftertouch works on this synth! This is somewhat rare for a DW-8000. It takes some pressure to activate the aftertouch, but from what I read that’s normal on this keybed.

The joystick works in all four directions.

All LEDs work.

All keyboard keys are in excellent condition – no chips or cracks.

This is a great synth, and it uses the 16 digital waveforms Korg continued to use in the M1 and other classics that followed. The filter is just fantastic, and the arpeggiator and key assign modes are a joy to use.

I have owned this synth for about 25 years. It has never been out on the road since I’ve owned it, so any scrapes and scratches happened before my time. A couple of the screws on the bottom of the synth case are missing, but the unit is totally solid. I’m selling this because I just don’t use it. (I’m actually a guitar player.)” Click here to visit listing on eBay
