Here's a selection of patches designed and played by accomplished electronic music artist Wisdom Water who kindly sent us this video of his playing. The REV2 is available in both 8 and 16 voice versions, (£1439/£1920) with the option to add an 8 voice expansion board to the 8 voice version.

Its compatible with the Prophet08 - its possible to load 08 patches, though not the other way round.

We're working on a review of the keyboard as we post this, and are enjoying the features of the new synth which are:

• OSCILLATORS
• 2 digitally controlled analog oscillators (DCOs) per voice (plus sub octave on oscillator 1) with selectable sawtooth, triangle, saw/triangle mix, and pulse waves (with pulse-width modulation)
