Title: I'm back!
Post by: chysn on December 14, 2020, 01:08:31 PM
In the fall of 2010, I bought a Dave Smith Instruments Mopho Keyboard. I joined a DSI-themed forum, liked the other people who hung out there, and had lots of fun with the bright yellow beastie.

Forward to April of 2016, I went totally modular. This, too, was lots of fun. I never really ruled out another keyboard synth, but I was looking for the right one. Basically, I wanted a new Mopho, with the same modulation philosophy but three octaves, VCOs, oscillators as a modulation source, the Prophet 6 filter.

When the Pro 3 was released almost a year ago, I started to weigh whether I wanted to go back to a keyboard synth. When Sequential updated the Pro 3 for custom waveforms, that pretty much sealed it up.

My Pro 3 arrived today. I had a lot to do at work today, so I've only had a few minutes to try it out, but it's a beautiful instrument, and the sounds are fantastic, under both heavy and light modulation.

Just a few more days, and I'll be off for the rest of the year. I'm looking forward to spending a lot of that time learning all about the Pro 3.

And that's when your wife will tell you it's time to spend a lot of quality time together.  ;D

There will be plenty of time for that, too!

But she practically ordered me to buy a Pro 3.

Welcome back. It’s definitely my favorite Sequential that I’ve owned out of the MoPho, Evo, Poly Evo, Tetra, and Rev2. It has all of the pseudo-modular flexibility of those with the sweet filters and oscillators I always wanted.

Hell it’s my favorite monosynth  too! And it plays well with modular.
