DSI are doing it right combining wavetable with analog filters on the NAMM Prophet 12. Waldorf *only* placed real analog filters on their Microwave 1 and although the Microwave II/XT/XTk can make sounds only until NOW have ever hear ANY synth make, the Prophet 12, those analog filters make a night and day difference and that can be heard in A/B comparisons between Microwave 1&2 AND on DSI Evolver series where a real analog VCF LPF is on each R/L of stereo path and then of course Evolver has a digital HPF further down path on both sides as well.
That YouTube demo of sound design examples made for Prophet 12 demonstrate to ears how much an analog high pass filter ALSO makes a HUGE difference. THIS synth is appealing to other "Waldorfians" than myself and this DSI Synth is more of the evolution many would have liked to have seen come forth from Waldorf (the Blofeld is a VERY powerful and capable synth with many cool filter algo's--no complaints here).
I could see adding the prophet 12 a little later on down time's road and then I would be personally forced to decide which to hold onto, the virus KB or the KC for shear space...maybe!
