The Evolver is a monophonic desktop synthesizer module from Dave Smith Instruments, combining analog and digital synthesis with a true stereo signal path. Featuring four oscillators, dual filters per channel, and an integrated 16-step sequencer, it marked Dave Smith's return to hardware synthesis after his work at Seer Systems.
Mono Evolver
Desktop monophonic synthesizer derived from the Evolver, combining analog oscillators and filters with digital wavetables and a four-track sequencer.
Mopho
A monophonic analog synthesizer derived from the Prophet '08, featuring a fully analog signal path with two DCOs, two sub-oscillators, and the signature Curtis lowpass filter at an accessible price point.
OB-6
The OB-6 is a six-voice polyphonic analog synthesizer born from a collaboration between Dave Smith and Tom Oberheim. It combines a classic SEM-based Oberheim sound engine with the modern architecture of the Prophet 6, delivering authentic vintage Oberheim tone with contemporary reliability and features.
Poly Evolver
The Dave Smith Instruments Poly Evolver is a four-voice analog/digital hybrid synthesizer combining Curtis analog filters with digital wavetable oscillators, dual feedback loops, and four independent 16-step sequencers in a 5-octave keyboard.
Poly Evolver Rack
Rackmount version of the Poly Evolver, providing four voices of hybrid analog/digital synthesis without the keyboard.
Pro 2
The Dave Smith Instruments Pro 2 is a paraphonic hybrid synthesizer combining four digital oscillators with analog filters and signal path, offering an extensive modulation matrix, a powerful step sequencer, and dual ribbon controllers in a sturdy 44-key keyboard.
Prophet '08
The Prophet '08 is a modern programmable analog synthesizer with eight voices of polyphony that revives the classic Sequential Circuits Prophet lineage. It features a 100% analog signal path with digitally controlled oscillators and Curtis filters, combining vintage tone with contemporary performance capabilities including velocity, aftertouch, and full MIDI functionality.
Tetra
The Tetra is a compact four-voice polyphonic analog synthesizer from Dave Smith Instruments that combines the analog circuitry of the Prophet '08 with the desktop form factor of the Mopho. It offers multitimbral capability with a 100% analog signal path, essentially packing four Mophos into one unit.
The Tempest is a hybrid analog drum machine and synthesizer co-designed by Dave Smith and Roger Linn. It combines six voices of analog synthesis with 16 velocity-sensitive pads and a step sequencer, functioning as a drum machine, drum synthesizer, polyphonic synth, and analog groovebox all in one.
