- Why don't we include the Korg Wavestation while we're at it? But seriously,
- three lists would be a minimum. Even SY77 and SY99 owners will sometimes
- fail to communicate. Also, the TG77 is essentially an SY77 - but wait -
- it has completely different factory presets. The 55/85 have the same
- AWM voice architecture as the 77/99 but does the 85 have the same
- ROM samples as the 99? The vector people are in their own little world.
- What would SY99 users and SY35 users possibly have to share with each other?
- Yes, this definitely needs to be broken down into separate lists.
