End of the first week with the Prophet 5!
I haven't touched my Pro 3. At all. But that's probably to be expected. I'll introduce them to each other soon enough. I still have some space issues, and I'll probably wind up having to stack them on a single stand.
I think it's safe to say that the Prophet 5 is the best synth I've ever owned. Back in the 90s, when I stayed in my music store after close day after day to play around with a two-manual Prophet 10, I observed that it had a huge sound space despite not having that many knobs. The parameters are a perfect balance of focus and capability. The size of the knobs, the placement of them, the feel of them, makes this instrument a pleasure to play and tweak. Oh, and look at.
Say what you want about the general concept of reissues... Dave Smith's best possible decision was to reverse his position on a fourth revision. It's something the world needed back in 2020, and it was done right, without compromise.
I should have some music soon. I'm making sounds now, and getting music into Finale.
