Roland JD-800 vs Korg Kronos: why does the JD-800 feel warmer than the Kronos?

why does the roland jd‑800 still rock when i hit the sustain button on a korg kronos? i’ve been tinkering with both lately and the vibes just feel different

here's a quick rundown

• analog subtractive vs digital wave‑folding: jd‑800 uses an all‑analog signal path, korg uses sample‑based wavetable with wavetable morph
• filter section: jd‑800’s 24‑pole resonant low‑pass feels like a 70s tube, korg’s 24‑pole digital filter is crisp but can be sterile
• envelope: jd‑800’s 2‑pole vca envelope is smoother, korg’s 4‑pole has steeper attack, great for percussive leads
• aftertouch: jd‑800 has full aftertouch on all keys, korg only on the synth engine, not the piano
• patch memory: jd‑800 holds 200 patches, korg holds 2000, but jd‑800’s recall is instant, korg needs a 1‑second delay
• workflow: jd‑800 is hands‑on, korg is menu‑driven i feel more in control on the jd‑800

in short, if you want a warm, organic sound and feel like a synth wizard, go jd‑800. if you need a beast of a workstation with insane poly and midi, the kronos wins. what do y’all think??
