Volca FM or Korg 707?

<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>I am looking for some 80's FM for my rather cheap jamming setup and I am considering a Volca FM or Korg 707. The obvious choice is the Korg and I was already settled on buying it in the near future but then I learned about the Korg. The Korg is just as expensive on the used market as a new Volca and has a keyboard (I don't have a midi keyboard). It also has a higher polyphony. The downside of the Korg are bad presets. But if I understand that correctly the sound engine itself isn't bad. An other downside is that I can't use dexed presets with the Korg (?). Also there are not much presets around. </p> <p>So, is the bigger keyboard and polyphony worth the time making own presets? Am I missing some other pros or cons? Are my assumptions correct?</p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> submitted by <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/Panda_In_Wakanda"> /u/Panda_In_Wakanda </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/qy3yvl/volca_fm_or_korg_707/">[link]</a></span> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/qy3yvl/volca_fm_or_korg_707/">[comments]</a></span>
