Korg 01/WFD

The Korg 01/WFD is a workstation synthesizer from 1991, using subtractive and digital sample-based synthesis. It is basically the Korg 01/W but with expanded sequencer memory and an internal floppy disk drive.

Phil Collins' Korg 01/WFD
Phil Collins, alongside Tony, received the Korg 01/WFD in 1991 around the time of We Can't Dance. It became one of his most important keyboards along with the Korg Wavestation, after the grand piano. He used the 01/WFD a lot on the Both Sides album.

Also, the 01/WFD was the first keyboard that enabled Phil to function creatively while on the road during the Both Sides tour: "The sequencer I use as a notepad to remember and create ideas I get, sometime after a gig, sometimes during the day. I'll sit and doodle and from that will come ideas that will often go further. It goes everywhere with me, I carry around a lot of the sound cards all the time and I flip between them, saving it all onto different discs."
