Sequential Take 5
The Take 5 packs true 5-voice analog polyphony and a Prophet-5-inspired filter into a compact 44-key body, earning a solid 74 in pro tier. It's the move for players wanting genuine analog poly and that signature filter without a large footprint. Skip it on a tight budget, or if you regularly need many more than five simultaneous voices.
