Re: [DSI Synths] OT - Used Mopho Keyboard on eBay

2011-09-15 by Jack Johnaldson

I have a virus a and a prophet 600.
The filter section in my virus has 
nowhere near the power of the prophet 
but you just can't beat analog. 
I have owned several analog modelers 
And they just don't have the power

Thanks, Jess

I've never played a Virus but I hear great things about them. Everyone has there own tastes...I don't think there is a "best" filter. It's just what your ears prefer.
