No, the only possible answer in this case.

You proposed two possible solutions and only one is correct for the
specific requirement.

The OP said, quote:

<input type="range" onChange="korgvol()" id="korgvol1" min="0" max="127"
orient="vertical"/>

Well i guess it is not, korgvol() will not know it was called from korgvol1?

(end of quote)

So it seems the onchange handler should not only get the value but also
the information which element was changed. And for *THIS* requirement,
using onchange="korgvol(this)" is a correct way to achieve this and not
onchange="korgvol(this.value)" since the latter one will only pass a
value and not the information which element got changed.

This is a different case:

1) onclick() and not onchange()

2) *set* a value and not *read* a value from control

Sure. But the original question did not include these.
