I've owned the Rev.2 -16 for a year now and I'm still learning about what it can do. I've been playing keyboards for 20 years and I've owned some great ones from a Korg Triton to a Access Virus KB to the more recent DeepMind 12, but the Prophet Rev. 2 -16 is by far my all-time favorite! It has a lot of great features from the split keyboard to the onboard special effects to the great sound but most of all it's playability is supreme. I cannot recommend it enough if analogue is what you want.

Let me start by saying I own many Moog synthesizers and love them all. I’m a huge fan of the 80’s synth pop sound and electronic ambient music. I debated for awhile about getting a DSI instrument but now that I have one I’m wondering why I waited so long. This is a stunning instrument that bridges the gap I had in my music. The DSI with the Moogs is territory that will be explored for many years. The build quality is superb on the Rev2. All metal chassis and gorgeous wooden end caps. All knobs are tight to the turn and some are tactile. Even resistance between all the knobs on my unit. My unit did come with the new Sequential branding on the box and on the unit in place of Dave Smiths logo. I was happy to see this since the newer units carry forth his company Sequential now. The OLED screen may be small but it serves it purpose fine and its crystal clear. Perfect really. The key bed action is very nice. Not to light and not to heavy. Has a nice resistance to key press. The sounds are incredible with the 16 voice unit I ordered. Plenty of user memory space for creating your own patches. Be sure and download the original Prophet 08 patches from DSI web. Greatness!Well, off to making more luscious sounds and diving deeper into this masterpiece!
