Title: Looking for analog polysynth desktop/module next to my prophet 6 (with keys)
Post by: tendingtropic on April 28, 2021, 06:57:20 AM

So I'm looking for analog polysynth desktop/module next to my prophet 6 (with keys).

I'm considering the prophet 5 or 10, but there are other cheaper options such as the novation peak.

I mainly make modern/dark electronic music (synthwave, but also more chill out music). My other gear consists of vermona perfourmer, moog sub37, prophet 6 keys, octatrack, analog rytm.

I realise there might be some bias here, but what would you recommend me?

Although it doesn't quite fit the description of "analog," don't overlook the DSI Prophet 12 Desktop.  You can still find them brand new.

I don't blame you!

Does the Rev2 Desktop fit the bill?

Check out Creamware MiniMax, a 12 voice Mini MOOG clone,
or Creamware PRO-12, a 12 voice Prophet-5 clone.
"Vintage" desktops with very analog sound, feel and real knobs and buttons  :)

Lots of options but considering your music tastes, IMO, I would either go for the Novation Peak or the OB6 desktop.
