The Korg OASYS is a workstation synthesizer released in early 2005, 1 year after the successful Korg Triton Extreme. Unlike the Triton series, the OASYS uses a custom Linux operating system that was designed to be arbitrarily expandable via software updates, with its functionality limited only by the PC-like hardware. OASYS was a software implementation of the research project that ultimately resulted in the OASYS PCI, a DSP card which offered multiple synthesis engines.〔http://www.korg.com/services/products/oasyspci/oasyspci.htm〕 The original OASYS keyboard concept had to be scrapped because of excessive production costs and limitations of then-current technology.〔(Sound On Sound: Korg OASYS )〕 Production of the OASYS was officially discontinued in April 2009. Korg sold just over 3000 units worldwide.〔(karma-lab.com )〕 The final software update was released on November 24, 2009.〔(korgusers.net )〕 In 2011, Korg Kronos, a successor of Korg OASYS, was introduced on Winter NAMM Show.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.soundonsound.com/news?NewsID=13520 )〕 == Features == The standard Oasys comes with hardware similar to many personal computers: * 2.8 GHz Pentium 4 CPU * 40GB hard disk drive * 1GB DDR RAM, user-expandable to 2GB * 10.4" LCD touch screen It features Korg's OASYS (acronym for Open Architecture SYnthesis Studio) technology, which allows multiple synthesis engines to be used simultaneously. The OASYS also includes second-generation KARMA technology (with the first generation having first appeared in the Korg KARMA). It has either a 76 key synth-action, or 88 key hammer-action keyboard. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Korg OASYS」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
