Let me start off by stating that I'm a complete newb when it comes to synthesizers and the principals of sythesis. My background is in guitars but the desire to try a synthesizer has always been there. Once I saw DSI had released the Prophet-6, I had to have it. Sure, it comes with a user guide which is probably sufficient for those familiar with the technology. For me, not so much. When I discovered your video, it was a Hallelujah moment. How anybody could unlock the capabilities of the P-6 without it is beyond me. Thank you so much Matt for this excellent tutorial.
