This was posted on their Facebook page with a teaser-ish vibe, as they usually do before an unveiling:

First...

I'll bet a billion dollars it's a new mono of some sort wit the P6 oscillators...maybe a cheaper desktop type box or a full fledged high end mono keyboard to match the prophet 6.

i bloody hope so!

show me!!!!!

SHOW ME NOW!

It'll be... a keytar

I hope it's a Poly version of the Pro2 and no I do not feel the P12 is that.

P.S. That is a Portamento switch from a P5( with a mystery swirl put on the image) which makes me think Poly something.

not a chance in hell

Poly Revolver

No Portamento button I can see on P5, P10, T8, P1, P2, P12, P08 or P6. They all have glide knobs.

I've seen that before but I can't remember where?

Hope its something sub-$1000. $500 4 voice would be nice to replace the Tetra & complete with the wonderful minilogue. Not holding my breath though.

I'd prefer a Tetra-sized box with P2/P12 specs, doubt it'll happen:(

and more knobs.

Just read somewhere that the pro one was the first synth to have legato portamento ( glide only when notes are held ) , so maybe its a hint at a pro one flavored release ???

I'd be fine with same amount of knobs tbh
I want a super portable module; little live control, strictly for sequencing.

Oh please be a Pro 2 module.

You could be right!


Now for Dave's dilemma: the Mopho's PCB had "Pro One 2" printed on it and he already has a synth called the Pro 2. What would he call this one?

And how many more "second" Pro Ones will he make?

Perhaps a pro 3 ? 3 osc. mono synth with new filter design and new portamento patch randomizer selector extreme switch ?

I like the sound of that. Whatever happens I'd like him to include CV/Gate control.

You are right, and yes I have seen it before as well. It's definitely old school as in Sequential type switch. None of the DSI machines used those switches.

I can bet whatever it is it's probably coming out under the Sequential brand rather than the DSI which leads me to believe it will be something related to the old school.

Oh damn it would so cool to see a modern Prophet VS!

P.S. Why in the hell does it have to be a Mono synth just because of a Portamento switch?

Pro One rehash would be my guess.

Given the way he announced and promoted the Pro 2 I doubt that. He promoted it as the successor to the Pro 1 much like he promoted the P6 as the successor to the P5.

I honestly think this has Poly synth not Mono synth all written all over it. After all look at the ratio of mono synths to Poly's he has always made.

Plus it's interesting that there are no more Evolvers being marketed and while the P12 amd Pro 2 are hybrids they are not like the Evolvers or VS.

Ya I can wish.

Maybe single VCO analogue poly ala SixTrak

Wishful thinking is new Pro One style mono perhaps with both the SSM and SEM filters. No presets. Killer would be the ability to arpeggiate the sequencer (like a Buchla Easel). And while I'm dreaming fully CV patchable.

all week will feed pictures ?

+1 on Sequential p6 related!

yes very important to include CV/Gate

would be disappointing if it didn't have it on a true VCO based Sequential mono

I agree that we are looking at something new from Sequential but why call it portamento instead of glide like on the P6 unless it behaves differently? Is there a difference between glide and portamento? Maybe you don't have to play legato for the notes to glide or maybe it has something to do with the way the amp envelope resets or the way an arpeggio behaves.

isnt glide for only certain or held notes and portamento global?

Sequential Four-Track (4-part multitimbral with mod matrix and CV)?
Sequential Prophet 6 Remote Keytar?
Sequential T16 (16-voice, double-manual)?

think maybe be glide and porto have got mixed up over years.
i thought that with glide ,you play a note and the pitch moves from a set range ,then "glides" to the note you play where as porto moves from one played note to the next plyed note

That would be interesting, like a budget Pro-2/Tempest hybrid for ...


$499?
