DSI MONOEVOLVER KEYS [2012 – 2015]

I was lusting for a PolyEvolver Keys for years, but it always felt like a bit of overkill. I think that I had come to realize just how much of a monosynth guy I really am. So when Dave Smith announced that he would be discontinuing the MEK, people started buying them from wherever they could find them. I found mine from Thomann, and just in the nick of time, as the next day they were sold out.

Sonically, it’s really impressive. It’s got both analog and digital oscillators (2 of both), a nifty sequencer and crunchy effects. I’m always on the hunt for the bass sound of Ultravox’ We Came to Dance, and this one (think PPG, or rather Prophet VS) comes quite close (Blofeld actually did that too). 

I lost it to Judgment Day, but this is actually one I could buy again.
