yep the j wire is the biggest problems with these keyboards

i thought the rev3 had the same pratt reed as the memory moog spring loaded

but maybe you got a rev 3 that had the jwire type as there are 2 different keybeds

the pro one only had the j wire

i got rid of mine years ago very un reliable compared to oberheim synths

but then again the moogs were un reliable to i just did a complete refit of a memory moog i had to add gold sockets and better quality silver wire ribbons becuase of bad tuning because theres no velocity or after touch keyboards i fitted a semi weighted fata keybed with a doepfer control thta goes to the midi interface which gives me velocity and aftertoch via the kenton internal midi cv kit

it makes the memory moog a totally different machine

the only prophets i own now is the prophet vs rack and the prophet 3000 sampler

i had a prophet vs keyboard but the after touch kept failing which was pita but the racks dont suffer from this

the scope dsp versions are good very close but the filter models are done by math and as any one knows its the components around the filter and opamps that add to the sound

john bowens prophet plus and his pro one emulation are great with the additional filters that the pro one never had

dave smiths morpho is the new pro one and you use your own keyboard to trigger it

Bud & jhulk, Thanks for your time, and the history lessons! For me, it's good to put these emulations into context, what features stood that model out from others, and maybe even what it's niche was at the time. Kinda like how a trumpet evolved from a bugle...it gives context for the sound of the instrument. I'm finding the Pro-1 sounds better layered with other instruments, as a sub-oscillator as it were.

cost the pro one was affordable by most the pro5 was not and still is not

but there are better cheaper alternatives to the pro one which cot £1000-1600 depending on condition

you can get a 4x morpho for £500-600 which is like having 4 pro ones on a keyboard for a 3rd of the cost

the waldorf pulse which has 3 analog osc is a killer machine and second hand can get for £200-300

no the minataur and minibrute both are good analogs with better features than the pro one

and the dsp versions are excellent in that you have poly

every one wanted the poly and to get it they had several of the same device being triggered by an analog poly keyboard which generated the cv and gate which is how you do it on real modular synths

thats why samplers like the mirage did so wellk as there start price was $2000 then went down to $1000

where the EII was $10000+

lots of stuff was popular because of cost as the big synths was only ever owned by big rock and pop stars or very rich people as you needed to take out a morgage to get one

Well, thanks to Sonic|Core, I have the pro-one to play with in my XITE :) And more importantly (to me) an ARP Odyssey!

Time to get some MIDI configs for all these synths so they can talk to CTRLR. Maybe if we did this methodically in a thread somewhere, it can be divided up in the community and done in no time.

Modular IV has given me wings and I would pay another 350 for it if ever asked.
The 3rd party support is the most gratifying experience I have ever had from purchasing software.
