Knobs on the Prophet 08

Knobs on the Prophet 08

2008-01-21 by justmullaya

Hey
I am looking at getting a prophet 08. I was wondering if anyone knew
if the knobs on it are notched like the desktop evolver knobs? You
know how they sort of click as you turn them? I don't really like
this. And are the knobs of a better quality than the desktop evolver?
Mine all feel pretty crap after a few years of use.
Also the shift button on my evolver is buggered. Sometimes it
registers a press as 2 presses or none at all. Anyone know how to fix
this?
Yeah but evolver still rocks! woo-hoo.
