Quatschmacher Posted August 24, 2021 Author Share Posted August 24, 2021 It was £1100 everywhere else so may have been a blip. I’m sure it’ll drop a bit once they hit the shops. This is still a lot of synth for £1100. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRedX Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 It seems a lot of money and it's not even available to own yet. I'm not a fan of this pre-release hype. If I see something I like and I can afford it I would want to buy it now for delivery before the end of the week. Pre-release stuff gets me all excited but if I wanted a synth with that spec RIGHT NOW, I'd have to buy something else, and if I was just vaguely interested, I'm sure that by the time it's available to buy in the shops with immediate shipping there will be something even better and cheaper available on pre-order!

It is available already. Some dealers already have stock. Sequential only ever makes announcements when the stock is ready to go out of the door.

Do you have some links for a store where I could either buy one and take it home with me or have them ship it to me before the end of the week? All the ones I found that were listing this synth were still "pre-order" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the ones I found that were listing this synth were still "pre-order" yes, but most likely US only for now. Obviously distribution to our island takes a little while, especially during a pandemic.

GisserD Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 I'm going to take the plunge on this. It seems like the synth 8ve been waiting for. FYI my previous have been the novation BS2 and morpho x4. I've been considering the peak for weeks now. But for similar money I feel the additional keyboard, analogue oscillators and simplicity of design will be more to my taste. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct, Sequential are now part of the Focusrite Group, which is nice haha. Unfortunately I've not tried one yet, Sequential are of course still based in the US and so I haven't seen one in the UK office yet, REALLY want to try one though.

Si Si, will Sequential stuff be made available through the Focusrite store? Will any UK-based warranty work be carried out here or will fills still have to ship back to the US?

Business as usual/before for now, but that may change in the future. Cheers Si 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave_bass5 Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 (edited) Wow, that synth is sooooo 80’s, and sooooo me 😁. Top of the list for my next keyboard. Ive been using Prophet sounds quite a lot recently, but only samples of them in my MODX. I also use iProphet on my ipad, triggered from the MODX, but its a work around to not having the real thing.
