DSI Mono Evolver vs. Korg MS-20 Mini

<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>I recently picked up a Dave Smith MEK for $440 at a pawn shop. It works brilliantly and is in great shape. $440 is more money than I intended to spend this month but when you see a minty DSI synth under $500, you buy. Was unfamiliar with the synth but now understand its complexity/reputation. Still have barely scratched the surface and never owned a synth with more than 2 oscillators.</p> <p>I have an MS-20 Mini that I've enjoyed, really gotten a lot of use out of it. I have never taken the time to properly learn the patch bays so I know there are capabilities I haven't unlocked yet. Was considering selling it to justify the MEK.</p> <p>Is the DSI MEK a capable replacement for an MS-20? How much am I missing out on with my under-utilized patch bay? What can the MS-20 do that the MEK can't? Any opinions on either synth would be lovely. </p> <p><a href="https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evolver_(synthesizer">DSI MEK (wiki)</a>)</p> <p><a href="https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Korg_MS-20">KORG MS-20 (wiki)</a></p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> submitted by <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/BlessedBeaver"> /u/BlessedBeaver </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/na42k8/dsi_mono_evolver_vs_korg_ms20_mini/">[link]</a></span> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/na42k8/dsi_mono_evolver_vs_korg_ms20_mini/">[comments]</a></span>
