For monophonic synths, it seems that there are currently quite a few reasonably priced options available. I'm most surprised about the monotron. It could be so much more with a bit of controls added... Dave Smith Instruments Mopho[1]. $325 (1 voice) Tetra[4]. $800 (4 voice) Prophet 8[6]. $1550 (8 voice) Evolver[7]. $550 Doepfer Dark Energy [2]. $625 Korg Monotron [3]. $50 MFB-SYNTH LITE II $327 The Dark Energy supposedly[2] uses the curtis VCF (CEM3320) which I thought was no longer manufactured. They must have some own stock then. The warbly, distorted resonance is from that chip then? The Mopho has some internal feedback mechanism. I wonder what that's about. EDIT: main out -> filter in if the input jack is not connected.
