NotesThe MKS-30 Planet S is commonly referred to as a rackmount JX-3P, although it really shares its heritage with the GR-700 guitar synth. The MKS-30 has several advantages over the JX-3P, including simultaneous use of the PG-200 programmer and MIDI, a cartridge slot for storing an additional 64 patches, and velocity response. Polyphony - 6 voices Oscillators - 2 DCO's (digitally controlled oscillators) LFO - YES Filter - cutoff / resonance / envelope amount / key follow VCA - 1 ADSR envelope generator Memory - 64 internal / 64 cartridge Keyboard - none Control - MIDI Date Produced - 1983
