..I also have a MicroKorg and an MC-303 which is just nasty and digital. The Low-pass filter doesn't even do anything, it just trims the high-end of the samples. Ugh.
Astonishingly, the Yamaha PSR-220 ROMpler that I'm about to sell to a cow-worker sounds better and phatter and more analogue than most of the digital synths I've heard from the early nineties. I'm embarassed to own that instrument.

JV-80 (£40)
JV-1010 (£30)
Yamaha DS-55(!) (swapped it for something - like a biro maybe)
Roland S-220 sampler (ahem, "special" discount at a shop where I worked)
GR-30
Novation X-Station (which I quite like).
I use the 1010 as a zero-overhead composition module before I load up full soft-sampled stuff.
