So no Prophet 12 or Pro 2?
My main reason for liking the Evolver is the digital sounds on a solid analog foundation. Would love to see a new take on that concept (as you may have heard before).
Well, I'm ultimately interested in
everything that DSI makes, but I'd like to limit myself to four keyboard synthesizers, and those four have to cover the right sort of sonic ground. Having a mixed bag, such as a Poly Evolver, Prophet 12, and a Pro 2 all in one set up would make no sense to me. I need only one polyphonic digital instrument. That would mean either the Poly Evolver or the Prophet 12. The rest need to be strong analog instruments. The Pro 2 still interests me because I like the voice architecture, the filter seems to be really strong, and because I could supplement it with an analog module or two. So, I'm only considering one instrument these days, to replace one of my Poly Evolvers. It will have to perform heavy monophonic duties. So, It could be a Prophet 6 plus a module, or a Pro 2 plus a module. Or else, some other classic analog mono synth.
DSLSynth, I know fairly well your interests. Why don't you do as I'm doing? Forget the idea of having it all under one hood and pair together a couple of modules - one digital and one analog. Take a SEM or a Boomstar and add to it some digital piece that impresses you. It's the surest way of satisfying your ideals.
