There will be an upside to this, I'm sure–as there are plenty of used Prophet '08s out there (keyboard and module) in sufficient numbers to keep everyone satisfied, just as there are sufficient numbers of Evolvers of all shapes and sizes out there in the used market.
My only regret for the Prophet '08 platform was the omission of the dual sub-octave generators featured in the Mopho / Tetra, which really made a difference in terms of extending the voice flexibility (e.g., set Osc 1 to 8' with PWM on LFO 2, Osc 2 to 4' with PWM on LFO 3, with a bit of the sub under each)–by that account, I was much more bummed about the demise of the Tetra (which remains screamingly good value for money)–as every other DSI offering provides sub-octave functionality.
