Firmware update is almost ready.
It will be possible to drive an external polysynth, and also create sequences using the TVS pro keyboard as input.

Thanks for the update, Telstar! What does the first point mean exactly?
The ability to drive an external poly synth with the TVS-PRO keyboard while at the same time the Minisequencer drives the two TVS-PRO SEMs.
Thats what Tom told me.

Ah, I see. I was wondering whether it would be possible to chain some more SEMs to the TVS Pro in case one likes to expand it to be a 4-voice, but I guess that's not possible in retrospect.

Here's a few soundbites featuring the TVP.

Those are nice examples! What else did you use for the recordings?

Va-va-voom!  I think that looks much better than the white version, especially with the wood end cheeks.

I prefer the classic look, but it's nice to see that there's obviously enough demand to offer a little variety.

I hope it goes on his website soon.  I'd like to see it from different angles.  It really has a classic look. 

I wonder if the SEMs will be offered in black as well.

Thanks, Paul.  Have you made a decision about the TVP and your other equipment?

I've put that on hold for the time being. But out of sight is not out of mind in this case.

Thanks. I used a Prophet 6, a Sub 37, and some Eurorack modules for drums namely Grids. A Vermona DSR-3 handled the spring duties.

The contrast between the black body and the white print seems very sharp and legible.  It looks like an entirely new instrument.  Beautiful.

Love the Space 1999 beige version. Don't like the black at all. The only thing I like about it, is that they've ditched the "tomoberheim.com" graphics, which is the only eyesore on  the beige model.

Thanks for the info, Telstar! They all work really well together.

Yeah, I'm with you on the original version, although I don't mind the "tomoberheim.com" at all.

One more question: Have you experienced any "signal leakage" so far? In some reviews I've read that the VCA doesn't seem to close fully.

Very nice! Probably the best overview that's out there.

Yes, I'd agree.  The Two-Voice Pro is a very attractive instrument, isn't it Paul?  Ahem. ;)
