Can Urs Heckmann's ghost be summoned to this thread, please?

I'd like to inquire if your ghostly highness will get the new Prophet-5 in order to gain access to Dave Rossum SSI chip, dissect it and give us Rev1 and Rev2 in Repro-5 V2, perhaps?

Also that precious "Vintage knob" for Rev4 and additional fuckeries and random naughty behaviors. Yes, please.

Cyberpunk is actually a literary genre that has been co-opted by the film industry. But I think it perfectly describes what we do, too.

After replying last night, it occurred to me that ROAD, from our current album, is absolutely Post Punk -

They should have gone with separate rev4s and rev4c models, and a lower price. Either that or let you use both sets of chips simultaneously in different modes.

to the original question: yes, anything can compete. it's a matter of personal taste.

not in terms of quality of emulation

No nothing can successfully compete with them. Not even the hardware upon which they are based.
Any claim to the contrary is just a bunch of chimp noise.

We need chimp noise on Diva

cut corners and lower prices are Uli Behringer's delight.

I don't think Dave Smith's interested. by 2020 he must have a fully developed vision of what Prophet-5 should be and how it should be.

I was going to say sommat clever like “synths shouldn’t compete with each other, only for the attention of your imagination.”

But now I’m wondering whether cybergoths can compete with New Romantics. Get them all on Takeshi’s Castle and let’s see.

better yet, let's make a Gladiators reboot and have them face off against technoviking

Like my old Dad used to say, "you can't compete with the elite unless you stand on your own two feet."

what about pirate kings?

Can anything compete with DIVA or Repro in 2020?!
