So this is weird. This is a Dave Smith synth for $799 with four analog voices. The device, called the Tetra, lets you play straight through with a MIDI keyboard or use the synth via USB to program your own sound.

I personally don’t understand this thing at all but it looks like you can make some amazing music with a few knob turns.
