Dave Smith Instruments Prophet '08 Eight-Voice Analog Synthesizer description:

The Dave Smith Instruments Prophet 08 is an eight-voice synthesizer with a 100% analog signal path.

While the Dave Smith Instruments Prophet 08's overall sonic character will be familiar to anyone who knows Dave's work from the '70s and '80s, it is much more than just a vintage reissue with a few new bells and whistles. Of course, it includes features that can now be taken for granted, like velocity and aftertouch. Add to that performance features like an arpeggiator, gated step sequencer, and the ability to split and layer sounds.

The modulation possibilities of the Prophet 08 are much deeper than its vintage predecessors', making it capable of producing sounds the "classics" simply could not. Dave Smith has always said that he is only interested in moving forward. The Prophet '08 is the product of evolution, not nostalgia.
