To quote the article: "The insert effects are impressive, but some of the best effects (the amp simulators) are restricted to monoaural output." All guitars are mono. I believe the analog waveforms on the Radias are generated in real-time because of the random phase location on a note-on command ...

Since I supose that your Radias has no digital output (like all others, includin mine), you are ignoring the audio stages between the digital wave and the "measurement unit". Here you have at least 2 analog amplifier stages (Radias Line Out, DAW Line in) that also are not linear in frequency and ...

Indeed, just check out how coloured the Virus classic sawtooth is. Nice! I think this is standard practice now, you "season" your waveforms because the mathematical models sound a bit unexciting?... The sine wave on my V-Synth XT has upper harmonics, you can lowpass it and audibly change the timbre ...

It's true that generating a sawtooth is not computationally expensive, HOWEVER... Consider that Korg may have chosen a sawtooth wave that is not mathematically perfect. If you sample sawtooth waves from analog synthesizers, they're not mathematically perfect -- the sawtooth slope will be slightly ...
