It would be absolutely hilarious if the next two Sequential products this year are an OBX reissue and Pro One reissue. Dave may as well just sell the company to Uli at that point.
I understand that vintage reissues are not what you're looking forward to, but isn't your perspective a bit biased toward personal interests, while ignoring the bigger picture? To me, comparing Dave Smith to Uli Behringer is something approaching blasphemy; simultaneously, I do understand where your comments are coming from based on what you and I have discussed in these forums in other threads.
But the reality is that to my knowledge, nobody else is doing proper reissues of vintage poly synths at the moment, thoroughly replicating the sound / feel/ vibe / magic of the original. Meanwhile, we have LOTS of companies creating new, innovative products, inventing new approaches to synthesis, etc., not to mention all of rapid progress and very economical innovation that happens at the purely software (in the box) level.
So taking that fact into consideration, and considering this clearly defined imbalance in the vintage hardware space, wouldn't it be mostly self-serving to suggest that Sequential should stop being the only vendor on the planet doing it right, so that your needs can be addressed?
Let's say the situation is flipped, and Sequential starts trying to reinvent the wheel and spends a lot of R&D money to come up with something that has never existed, those of us who would like an OBX need to look to another company for authentic and well-executed vintage synth remakes. What company do you suggest I turn to? Don't say Uli, because he doesn't pass the authentic and well-executed criteria. Fly-by-night companies that are run by 2 people with very limited industry experience that aren't going to be in business in 5 years don't count... the company must have a track record of standing behind their products and great warranty service.
I'm not knocking your opinion or perspective here. Just suggesting that you consider more than that and look at it from all sides.
