Sequential Prophet X

De Dave Smith Instruments Sequential Prophet X z’n naam is niet alleen een mondvol, ook z’n specificaties zijn enorm uitgebreid.

De nieuw ontwikkelde soundengine kan 2 sample engines én 2 digitale oscilatoren aansturen die allemaal door analoge filters worden gestuurd.

We kunnen stellen dat deze synth een combinatie is van een sampler en een Prophet synth.

We hebben even snel alle specs hieronder (voorlopig in het Engels) even opgesomd.
