Korg DW-8000
Cable and MIDI requirements
The Korg DW8000 uses a standard MIDI cable, Parameter 84 needs to be set to the same
channel number that is programmed into the Patch Editor (or set to Omni using Parameter 86).
Parameter 85 needs to be set to 2 to enable SysEx control.

Korg DW-8000 Notes
The DW-8000 uses two separate voice generators which are not VCOs but rather are preprogrammed wave form
generators which change their frequency depending on the note played. The waveforms are generated from
ROM (Read Only Memory) look up tables and the frequencies are calculated in real time by very fast hardware
multipliers and a DAC (Digital to Analog Converter) to produce the final waveform. A more conventional filter and
VCA is used which uses the NJM2069 combo chip for each of the 8 voices.
The oscillators 1 and 2 Range buttons are used to step through all possible octaves. These are 16', 8' and 4'.
The oscillators 1 and 2 Wave buttons are used to step though all possible programmed wave types. These are
Brass & Strings, Clarinet, Acoustic Piano, Electric Piano, Electric Piano Hard, Clavicord ,Organ, Brass,
Saxophone, Violin, Acoustic Guitar, Guitar (distorted), Electric Bass, Digital Bass, Bell and Organ/Whistle.
The Oscillator 2 tune will change the oscillator 1 and 2 interval. Possible interval options are unison (same as
Oscillator 1) , minor 3rd, major 3rd, perfect 4th and perfect 5th. The Fine Tune control on the Patch Editor will
provide Oscillator 2 Detune.
The Oscillator 1 LFO modulation control will effect both oscillators 1 and 2.
The Envelopes in the DW-8000 use extra controls. In addition to Attack, Decay, Sustain and Release there are
break level and slope controls. On page 1 the Patch Editor sets the slope equal to the decay and the break level
to maximum and break time to minimum which has the effect of changing the envelope generators to the four
control system. On page two full control is provided.
The DW8000 has a comprehensive delay section. This has been placed in the unused Oscillator 2 modulation
area, the FX/Chorus rate control & the VCA Level control is used to set the Delay level.
