Trading In Prophet Rev2 + BassStation 2 for a Peak or Summit
<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>Howdy! I’m always looking to see how I can pare down my setup to maximise creativity with only as much gear as I truly need to make the sounds I like. </p> <p>I currently have a few things, but two of my main synths are the Rev2 and the BS2. </p> <p>There’s lots I like about the Rev2, but I find it has a small sweet spot for what I like. I’ve grown to sort of dislike the filter, the arpeggiator is quite uninspiring, and the effects section leaves a lot to be desired. I like how immediate it is, and it is a lovely instrument to play. </p> <p>The BSII is cool, but I don’t really like the patching experience, and - again - I find it has a small sweet spot for what I like. </p> <p>All that in mind, I’ve been using Ableton’s Wavetable synth a lot more to make my sort of ‘workhorse’ sounds, but I still really value engaging with a physical instrument so I’m looking at maybe selling the Rev2 and the BSII to go towards a Peak or Summit. </p> <p>The better effects section, more interesting arpeggiator, wavetable capabilities, and more versatile filter section has me fancying the Peak/Summit. </p> <p>I’d love to hear your thoughts on this, especially if you’ve had a similar experience!</p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> submitted by <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/MushyKrungold"> /u/MushyKrungold </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/qq0n50/trading_in_prophet_rev2_bassstation_2_for_a_peak/">[link]</a></span> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/qq0n50/trading_in_prophet_rev2_bassstation_2_for_a_peak/">[comments]</a></span>
