@Marlowes @Quai I think that lately I am more of a collector than a player.... Which why I actually could buy both! You can justify anything if you are a collector!

Yes, true, that's why on your picture, you have a Prophet 5 and an Oberheim 4 voices right? But they are not in your signature?

I must confess that my profile picture was taken in a music store in Stuttgart, they had a "forbidden" vintage room that they let me go into and that is where I took the picture. Sadly, most of the gear was not functioning. Only thing that worked was a Korg Lambda!

Yet, I am not a true collector... I am missing a Moog!

Yeah, I know, Moog Sub Phatty 37 would be the catch for me as I'm also missing a Moog....but I bought a Prophet 08 instead last time...so....

Getting somewhat off topic, but I actually tried out the MSP37 and it didn't connect with me as well as the DSI Pro 2 did.

Back on topic, I just bought (but haven't received) the New VAXMIDI 8 Octave midi controller that features polyphonic aftertouch. I just asked DSI and they told me that this synth (like all their polysynths) will respond to polyphonic aftertouch. I can imagine doing great pads with aftertouch modifying each note for complex vibratos, fading in/out individual notes, the possibilites just expand!

[OT] You know what Gustavo, I haven'tried the MSP37 yet but I also got a great feeling when I tried the Pro2 at the shop, I just wish it didn't cost that much... [/OT]

So... are you going to buy the OP6 and play it with the VAXMIDI? :mrgreen:

Maybe, no need to play it with the VAXMIDI, I assume that the OB6 Keybed Will be as good as the Prophet 08 that I like a lot....

I already bought the VAXMIDI, it's just a matter of a couple of months to get it and then buy the OB6.

I will use the VAXMIDI to control the OB6 so that with the poly AT I can articulate each note separately
