If i remember correctly i used Arturia Prophet V3 as a reference .

That's what i thought too.

I would like to be in Beta test too.

Which Beta test do you mean?

AFAIK for Repro-5 there will be a public Beta like there was one for Repro-1 and also Diva.

Hehehe, the bliss of trying to work around, you know, naming things.

I would love to find a way to say "this synth is inspired by that synth" without making it a possible copyright violation or unfair business.

I don't speak more than four words in German, but this interview's excitement always is infectious.

With SC going bust in '87, who picked up their copyrights and patents, was it Yamaha or Korg?

Can they still enforce copyright claims, or has it reverted back to DSI ?

Yamaha owned the Sequential brand for years, until recently, they gave the rights back to Dave Smith (hence, the "Sequential"-brand Prophet-6).

So Dave owns the name again, now...

As far as copyrights and IP goes, probably still officially belongs to Yamaha, unless they also gave the IP back to Dave as well, but he only mentioned they gave him back the name, so who knows..?

Wow just gotta say that 2.8 update looks soooooo nice

almost like we get a new synth

What's so wrong with mentioning by name the synths that inspired a product? We're talking about a synth that first came out nearly 40 years ago and isn't being made today. Is it because the prophet name is being used again? Is it bad form?

And will be available in only a few weeks

Did he say that tongue-in-cheek, or for real?

Gotta start putting aside some money.
