"The Pro-8 (or Split-8, they are the same instrument) can be thought of as a wonderful companion (or even competitor) to the Juno-106. It may not have the essential fatness of the 106 and its chorus may not be exactly lavish, but it has a few functions the 106 lacks that make it a very serious sound shaping tool:

- VCOs (not DCOs like the 106) which make the unison sound like it should - huge and meaty.

- Programmable split point allowing you to play two patches independently.

- Dual mode, stacking two sounds to form a 4 voice, 2 osclllator synth.

- Poly Mod (not to be confused with the on in Prophets, though) that allows to modulate one patch with another and create FM-ish or spooky, overdriven sounds.

Matrix programming is immediate and very, very fast. The Pro-8 is a joy to use.

The instrument has been serviced, keyboard, pots and switches regenerated and new patch battery fitted. It's in absolutely fantastic condition, it looks almost new."
