Because I'm demented. I said it before.
The alternative was to send it back. The end-result is much more
gratifying than the initial product.
As I said, I had to relinquish the warranty. I knew this all along,
and I'm OK with it.

>>>All you had to do was get a Kurzweil midiboard and hook it up
to the Prophet 08.<<<

Are these still available?


> 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.<<

Right you are, friend. For now, I'm really enjoying this patchwork
instrument, and have no regrets. If I find a used Midiboard, I'll
buy it and incorporate it into this "project"
