Example would be difference between a Prophet 5 and Pro1.

Aside from the fact the Pro1 is a mono / P5 Rev 3 is poly , the voice architecture is the same except the P5 have voice recall.
The Pro1 doesn’t.

The Pro 1 uses a pot to control the signal.
The P5 uses a pot to control the CPU that controls a VCA (or CV etc) to control the signal.

The difference in sound ? Pro 1 is raw and bitey as F.
The P5 is a classic synth but a tamer character.

I prefer ‘typical’ 303

I’m assuming this most recent run is the last..?
