About option boards
By installing option boards or memory into this instrument,
you can expand its functionality. The following four types of
expansion are possible.

This adds to this instrument a MOSS tone generator that
provides thirteen oscillator algorithms, including Standard,
Ring Modulation, VPM, Resonance, Organ Model, and Elec-

in program, combination, sequence, or song play modes.
The MOSS tone generator has six-note polyphony.

Each of these boards adds 16 Mbytes of multisamples and
drum samples to this instrument. (The details will differ
according to the series.)

Please note when installing an option
board
• So that static electricity in your body does not damage
the electronic components, touch the ground wire of a
grounded device or an unpainted metallic component
to discharge any static electricity in your body before
installing an option board. Internal components of this
instrument and of the option boards may be damaged
by static electricity.
• Follow the installation procedure, and be sure that each
part is installed correctly and in the correct orientation.
• Please use care in handling option boards. Dropping
them or applying pressure to them may damage the
components.
• Avoid touching exposed metal edges of the circuit
board, or portions that need not be handled during
installation.
• All screws (and washers) that are removed will be
used, so be careful not to misplace them.
• Do not use screws other than those that are installed in
the option board and this instrument. Using screws of a
different shape or length may damage the unit or cause
it to malfunction.
• Be sure to firmly tighten the screws used for attach-
ment.
• Be sure that the option board is inserted correctly into
the connector or slot. After installation, be sure to check
that the board is installed correctly. If the board is not
inserted all the way, faulty contact or power supply
shorts can occur, making the unit malfunction.
• Be careful not to drop parts or the option board into the
inside of the instrument.
If you are unable to retrieve a screw or part that was
dropped inside the instrument, please contact your
local Korg distributor.
