The Korg 01/W is a 61-key digital synthesizer music workstation released in 1991. It's a followup to the Korg M1 and Korg T-Series synthesizers, introducing the expanded AI² synthesis system and the Waveshaping feature on top to generate its tones. It features 32 voice polyphony, a significantly larger display, and a 16-track sequencer.[1]
The Korg 01/W was released with a floppy disk drive variant known as the Korg 01/Wfd. The main utility of the floppy disk drive was for acting as a secondary memory unit was for being able to store Program, Combination, Drum Kit, Global setup, and sequencer data onto a floppy disk. It also increased the overall sequencer memory from the stock 7,000 notes to up to 48,000.[1]
Variants

The KORG 01R/W is a 2U rackmount version of the Korg 01/W.
Korg 01/W PRO/PRO X
The Korg 01/W PRO and the PRO X are 76 and 88 key variants of the Korg 01/Wfd respectively. that introduce a new detailed piano multisound (255 A. Piano) and 10 new drum multisounds, overall increasing the waverom size to 10 megabytes[2]. The PRO X (88 key) model features a weighted keybed.
Korg 03R/W
The KORG 03R/W is a scaled down 1U rackmount version of the 01/W released in 1992 with a smaller waverom (5MBs to the 01/W's 6MBs)[2], reduced display, no waveshaping, but features GM support. It can be used with the Korg RE-1 Remote Editor. While the 03R/W supports 01/W PCM cards, it does not support the companion 01/w PROG/SEQ cards (patch data) due to waverom differences, but has its own set of data cards that can be used with existing 01/w PCM cards at the time.[3]
There is also the Korg 05R/W, but in spite of its name, it is actually a desktop module version of the Korg X3R than related to the Korg 01/W-series.
