[linndrum9000]

Please put this in a keyboard...PLEASE!!!!!!!. $ voice mopho in a mini mek type keyboard would be a dream come true!!!

Cool idea...

I think I have a love/hate relationship with DSI. I've owned all of his products (except the PEK) at one time but in the end never kept any. I did not particularly dislike any of them but in the end I liked something else better and it was usually down to sound quality. I guess I'm not a huge fan of the synth-on-a-chip analog sound. That's not to say that I hate the DSI sound character, I just like other stuff a bit more... For the money though, no other company gives you as much bang for your buck.

This has a great many possiblities. The mopho has the bass that the P'08 seems to be lacking. If this could be used both as 4 monos and polyphonically it's a very cheap way to get a new poly analog if you can live with only 4 voices and perhaps not the best interface. Used as monos this could easily serve as a four voice drum machine if you can't wait for the Linndrum.

I think it's a pretty win idea, I imagine he sells more mophos than evolvers or p08s.

but not everybody likes using computers and I know I'll never plug my mopho into some editor I have to download. and having a polysynth I need an editor for is balls. I think it will not be popular with the old school plug and play/tweakers.

But a polysynth in a small box like that with a cheap price will probably sell pretty well but he might as well make it a 6 voice... 4 is just weird.

Could this be as simple as a prophet 8 in a mopho box? Meaning no sub osc, etc.

Also I wonder if this might have some relation to the analogue side of the LDII.

That's what I was thinking. LDII will need a board with a 4 voice analogue synth on it, it shouldn't be too hard to put that board in a different case and have it as a stand-alone synth.

i just want a poly evolver...

... or we could think of this as Dave's Expander for the P08 to make it 12 voices with a sub osc.

wouldn't it be 4 voices because of the doubling thingy that they always do with polyphony? i mean it tends to go 1, 2, 4, 8, 16 etc...6 doesn't really fit in to me

this is a pretty hot idea for a synth tho. i think a tetr4 (i do not love the name) plus an evolver would be just killer!

conversely, I had the PEK and eventually decided I liked the MEK a LOT more. 4 voices was both too many and too few. In this case, I would probably see myself just wanting a p08 (not that I do, but...) maybe the whole idea is 4 monosynths rather than a 4-voice synth, especially in that small size.

My evolver is in the shop, and during communication with Chris, he mentioned a product release in 2 weeks...

God damnit....

I was meant to have bought a car a year ago, but gearlust keeps screwing me over!!!

I was going to buy a car in a few weeks with my tax return, but if this tetr4 business is out soon... well.. I guess I wouldn't need to leave home so much if I had one.

[JSRockit]

cartesia, you need a better job sir.
