Go to Korg.com and click on the specs of both and compare them side-by-side. That takes less than a minute.

i already deed it . :) but thanks anyway.

i found that the radias have more parameters .:

radias have two filters with more shapes \ MS get one with basics shapes
in virtual patch section. Radias can do 6 diferent "routing" \ MS only 4.

the step sequenser in radias is longer and bit smarter.

the display screen in radias is larger

from all the checkin that i made ... it seems the Radias can do things that MS NOT be able to do.

im afraid that im misss somthing .... or maby im wrong abuot everithing.

My new question is :

What MS2000b can do that the Radias Dont ???

please i need your help to be sure .

thanks again

The Radias is Korg's replacement for the MS2000, so you won't find that they decided to eliminate any useful features.

The polyphony limitations of the MS2000 are reason enough to justify the upgrade to the Radias (or R3). The vocoder is more powerful too, with the ability to store formant data. The Radias also has an envelope follower that is very useful for guitars, keyboards, or other external input sources.

I've never heard the term "fat" used to describe either the MS2000 or the Radias. now I have heard people say the sound of the MS2000 is more "raw" whereas the Radias is definitely cleaner.

Feel free to invite "some people" to come here to share their opinion personally, and I'll be pleased to set them straight and to see exactly how qualified they are to make such a claim. Some people think they were anal probed by aliens and implanted with tracking microchips so they could more easily be tracked by the black helicopters.
