I don't know why you did that. All you had to do was get a Kurzweil midiboard and hook it up to the Prophet 08.
Also, the Prophet 08 supports Poly aftertouch Midi IN only. So you can control the aftertouch like a CS80. You just need that Kurzweil controller. Mono aftertouch is a waste. Poly is the only way to go.
