DW-8000

“Korg DW-8000 Programmable Digital Waveform Synthesizer With Original Manual, Acc.

I bought this new in the late 80s. Works and performs as it should. Cool sounds. Includes original user manual and papers, original cassette to load presets as well as the original sound bank card. Also there are a few enlarged paper copies of the sound banks. The power cord is new. There are the usual scratches and dings as any of this vintage will usually have. I have included pics of them. ” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“100% functional. Action on key A#5 is a little clicky-clacky sounding. Cosmetically near mint. Fantastic inimitable sound from an 80s classic synth.”

“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 DW-8000 Programmable Digital Waveform Synthesizer in fair condition. All keys, buttons, dials, sliders and functions work. The korg needs an internal battery replacement, Will have to hold down both the value UP and DOWN buttons together while turning on the unit and works fine when doing so. There is a small chip on the under side of one of the keys( doesn’t affect playability) comes with power cord and a lot of potential. A simple change of the internal battery and you’ve got yourself a very nice Korg.” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“In perfect working condition. Internal battery was recently replaced. Includes power cord, soft case, manual & program sheet. Some of these patches are custom made. Nice fat sounds. This is an Eight voice poly-phonic hybrid digital-analog 61 note keyboard instrument released in 1985. Totally programmable by using numeric codes to change the parameters (synth/voice, tone, etc.). This is highly regarded as being Korg’s first knob-less synthesizer.”

“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.”

THIS KEYBOARD WILL REQUIRE PLENTY OF WORK TO GET UP AND RUNNING. INCLUDES NEW POWER LEAD.”
