Prophet 600 // SOUNDS GREAT but why is it underrated and much maligned?

video upload by Starsky Carr

"Before the release of the Behringer Pro-800 I thought I'd take a look at the original vintage version from 1982. The Prophet 600 gets a really bad press (in some cases it's deserved ed), but the tones are great, and if you can put up with dodgy envelopes and a laggy processor... no-one will notice in a final track :)"

Behringer's Pro-16 Prophet-5/16 Clone?

Behringer shared these pics with the following:

"Prototype completed. Firmware development in full force."

The number in their product names usually indicate the number of voices, so I'm guessing a 16 voice Prophet.

Curious what the status of the Behringer PRO-800 is.

New Behringer Pro-800 in the Works

According to Behringer:

"What an exciting day!!! The PRO-800 is alive!!! Some time ago we started a wonderful journey with the famous synth designer GliGli who rose to fame for his highly respected improvements around the Sequential PRO-600.
Together with GliGli we have taken this beautiful synth to the next level. The PRO-800 is now an fully polyphonic, 8-Voice Dual VCO synth with many new features.

We’re working hard to get it to you below US$ 600 while shipment is targeted for coming January."

Casio HT-700 Programmable Digital Synthesizer with Analog Filters

Published on Nov 6, 2016 Patrick Manderson

"This demo contains a number of short MIDI sequences and arpeggios highlighting the filter and wavetable-like oscillators. MIDI sequences were driven by the Yamaha RS7000 Sequencer. Arpeggios were provided by the Novation Bass Station II. One some sequences the Boss Dr-660 played drums. A few pieces of outboard gear was used. Alesis, Behringer & Art Pro Compressors. Delays and reverbs were added from a number of devices: Lexicon MX200, Behringer REV 2496, Zoom MS-CDR70, Digitech RDS 1900.

There is a built-in "stereo" effect using a BBD chorus circuit but it was disabled throughout. I found it a little noisy and a distorted.

The LFO only affects the oscillator. It has depth, delay, speed and 4 wavforms (tri, ramp, reverse ramp, square, random)

It has 31 waveforms for the upper voice and 16 waveforms for the lower voice.

4 part multitimbral - upper voice, lower voice, bass, PCM drums
(8 voices in single mode or 4 voices upper, 3 voices lower, 1 voice bass). The individual drum sounds cannot be triggered over MIDI but the drum patterns to transmit.

One programmable analog filter for the upper voice, another analog filter for the lower voice. The bass voice has no filter.

The resonant NJM2069 filters are very similar to the Korg Poly 800, DW 6000, DW 8000, DSS-1. The DCA and VCF envelopes have fast ADSR and level parameters. However maxing the attack and decay unfortunately isn't slow enough in my opinion. You can hear the filter envelopes at their slowest settings in the Filter Sweeps demo at 10:44.
