Dave Smith Instruments ups the ante (again) with the Prophet Rev2, a 61-key analog synthesizer that takes over where the legendary Prophet ‘08 left off. Offered in eight-voice or 16-voice version (this is the 8-voice version), the Rev2 is an absolute beast with dual DCOs, a sub-oscillator, and a 2/4-pole resonant lowpass Curtis filter per voice. Other features include bi-timbral operation, waveshape modulation, a beefy onboard FX engine, an advanced polyphonic step sequencer, a crisp OLED display, and USB. The premium 5-octave, semi-weighted keyboard with velocity and channel aftertouch feels just right. Synth geeks here at Sweetwater are excited about Dave Smith Instruments’ Prophet Rev2. Dave has delivered another killer synth — and it's an amazing value.
