This is a USED item in excellent condition. Home use only. Includes, mains adaptor and 3 month warranty. Sadly no original box or instruction book.

With all the same well loved features from the standard Prophet 08 but with the added addition of potentiometers rotary controls for a more vintage style control, the Prophet 08 PE certainly lives up to expectations! Expect a classic, warm analog sound including the prestigious Curtis analog low-pass filters along with 2 digitally controlled analog oscillators (DCOs) per voice with selectable sawtooth, triangle, saw/triangle mix, and pulse waves (with pulse-width modulation), and hard sync. If you are looking for an affordable polysynth with a 100 % analog signal path, then look no further than the The Prophet '08 PE.

Here's what Dave Smith Instruments say about the Dave Smith Prophet 08 PE keyboard

The Prophet '08 PE (potentiometer edition) has all the features of the standard Prophet '08, but many of the front panel's rotary controls use potentiometers (AKA "pots") for more "vintage-style" control. (The standard Prophet '08 primarily uses rotary encoders. For a complete list of the Prophet '08 PE's parameters and their control type, click here.)

The only affordable, full-featured polysynth with a 100% analog signal path.

Classic, real analog sound—including legendary Curtis analog low-pass filters—married to a modern feature set.

Compact size, huge sound.

Tons of knobs for direct, real-time editing and performance.
