A unique sample is utilized for each octave, and the waveforms were created using additive synthesis, which were then encoded onto the ROM chips. The DW-8000 features two oscillators, offering controls to modify their relative volumes and detune the second oscillator, creating a rich chorus-like effect.<sup id="cite_ref-mz9173-here-in-black-and-white2_4-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-mz9173-here-in-black-and-white2-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-:0_3-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:0-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-mz6772-korg-dw8000_5-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-mz6772-korg-dw8000-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>There are various key assign modes, including polyphonic and polyphonic <a href="/wiki/Portamento" title="Portamento">portamento</a>.
