ABOUT quite like a Prophet 5/10 but with Velocity and polyphonic aftertouch (!), also more voices than a P5.. the top model in fact they all said: hey, Dave you want poly pressure on the new (yes!) midi standard just for this synth! (no other synth exept the cs80 had poly pressure "Aftertouch" that time) it is mainly a velocity equipped dual prophet 5. no more , no less. to my ears it is a bit thinner than a p10 or p5 but more expressive (velocity and pressure)
ABOUT Ist dem Prophet 5/10 sehr ähnlich, hat aber Anschlagdynamik und polyphonen (!) Aftertouch und auch mehr mehr Stimmen als ein P5.

SEQUENTIAL CIRCUITS known or written as SCI or Dave Smith

Dave Smith was founder of SCI, he runs Dave Smith Instruments today and continued what he started in the late 70ies building the first synth based on SSM chips (later Curtis) and it was polyphonic. Yamaha aquired the rights for SCI and Prophet later, so Dave won't name his synths prophet in the future..DER HERSTELLER
THE MANUFACTURER
Dave Smith war der Gründer und Macher hinter SCI, heute arbeitet er weiter unter dem Namen Dave Smith Instruments und führt fort, was er mit SCI begann. SCI startete ende der 70 mit dem Prophet 5. Basis der Idee war einen polyphonen Synthesizer auf Basis der damals neuen SSM (und später Wechsel zu Curtis) Chips zu bauen. Die Namen SCI und Prophet gehören heute Yamaha.
