keybdwizrd - Prophet '08 Jazz Fusion Lead (stereo)

While the Prophet '08 synthesizer from Dave Smith Instruments is a great polyphonic synth, I've found that it's great for monophonic leads as well. Here's me soloing with the Prophet, with sequenced backing tracks being played via Digital Performer.

Thanks for music man, you are making me really learn all my modes of scales - your videos have so much insired me and improved my playing. are you self taught? That sound is just sooooo groovy is it a preset "fusion Jazz lead" or what patch did you tweak? If it is a preset I am buying this thing cause I can't make this sound on my Jp8080-trying for a spacey jazz sound and this nails it. Please let me know the preset or if it is one. thanks again!

@realguy640 Thanks, I am not self taught, I took 15 years of piano lessons. This is not a preset - I tweaked something up, and continue to tweak it during the video. But this is inherently what the P08 sounds like - much different than a Moog, for example. Also remember that I have spiced up the P08 by adding external reverb and delay.
