Can they really call it MonoPoly?
I have no idea if it's any good.

Seems to be the fake paraphonic 'poly' in this case as for Poly-D.
If they went further and made it true polyphonic would be interesting.

I kind of like the new Behringer MonoPoly. It seems neat and sounds pretty good.
I also have a Behringer Deepmind-12 in my collection, as well as the Minilogue XD and Minilogue XD module.
I have also been looking at the Poly-D but have read many reviews about the volume not being as loud as other synths. It made me wonder if the users who are not happy are using balanced cables or not...
I do not really care about the units being truly polyphonic or not. As long as they have polyphony so I can make chords for pads and play them live, I think that I would be okay with them.

The original MonoPoly was paraphonic also, but I agree they could have included the extra three amps, filters and six more EG's to control them and made a four-voice poly. _________________ Stuff I'm using: Umm right now, well there's a Volca Drum, a Micro Freak, an ADX-1, a Pulse, a Blofeld, a UNO Drum, KeyStep/Beatstep Pro/Keystep Pro (one of each), a Circuit, a LiveTrak L-12 and this nonsense: The Brief-case as it was about a bit over a year ago (the the complete ridiculous GAS monster collection here)and here |

Here the Poly-D "sounds only" real nice sounding
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4CqXRDkoPpk
Not sure where MonoPoly fits in.
They seem to overlap quite a bit.
When reissues it's nice that they modernise a bit.
I think Roland did a good job with Boutique D-05
- 6 factory banks with all the cartridges Roland released
- then room for another 8 such banks
- then an step sequencer not in D50.
- all compatible with D50 sysex out there
Quite a catch I think.
Behringer Pro 800 - with 2 extra voices from original - way to go.
But really fond of Poly-D as well if to get one.....have to make a sitting at Prologue again to cure the GAS..... _________________ MIDI gear: Sequential REV2.16, Prologue-8, Hammond XK-3C, Kawai MP7SE piano, Nord Lead 2X, Roland D-05 |

Helps greatly that whoever scored tune is quite brilliant at what they do.
