Korg poly 800 speaker
The Poly-800 could be run off batteries and had guitar strap pegs, allowing a performer to wear it like a guitar. Further it had three digital envelope generators, a noise generator, an LFO, and a chorus effect. In multi mode, each key pressed in turn triggers the filter envelope, even if other keys are still pressed down. In single mode, the first key pressed triggers the filter envelope, and unless all keys are released, the filter does not re-trigger. Like a monophonic synthesizer, the filter was switchable between single or multiple modes. It featured one analog resonant low-pass VCF with 24 dB/oct which was shared for all voices.
