i’m being offered a prophet 10 desktop now for 2500 euros.
I’m in doubt… should I? anyone here own a p10 and DDRM? different enough to justify?

I find this post confusing. Why are you asking if you should buy a Prophet 10 in the Deckard’s Dream thread?
I’d say you have plenty of analog polys already, but I’m also just not the guy who understands why people need more than one of them. You seem to already have all the variation of analog poly one could need: the elusive dream machine with special sauce but limited use case in the Deckard’s, the limited but trustable P6 and the all rounder and multitimbral workhorse that is Nina which has the best UI of any synth.

@tendingtropic: I also own Deckard’s Dream II, Prophet 10 and Nina. In my opinion DD and P10 sound completely different. Enough to justify? That’s a very personal decision. I would never part with either of them.
@Azzarole: I agree that Nina is a multitimbral workhorse and has the best UI of any synth. Definitely not an “all rounder” though imo. It has a very unique character: quite dark, grungy, characterful. I love the sound but I wouldn’t recommend it to anybody as a first or only synth.

Fair enough, I’m not that well versed with all the differences of the analog polies out there. To me I’d say it has pretty much all of the sound design tools one could want in an analog poly to make basically all of the sounds you look for in such a synth, and then some. The filter might probably limit/color it the most.
But the intention of my post was more to question why we’re discussing if they should get a P10 shortly after buying a Deckard and already owning a P6 (and Nina). That sounds like severe GAS talk to me.
sorry for that, didn’t know where to ask and didnt justify making a new topic. Thanks everyone for you recommendations and experiences.

thanks @rklem we seem to have a similar taste hah! where are you based? im in amsterdam. cheers!
the complicating factor for me is that i already have a p6. so it makes the decision even sillier. oh well. YOLO

Indeed. I’m based in Berlin.
I read that P6 and P5/10 sound quite different, but I can’t comment on that. I never had or played a P6.

…deckard’s dream is the name of one of my most favourite polygrid preset patches in bitwig…
just sayin’… 
but congrats to the handful of people on this planet who actually paid the price for this hw synth…
Love Tim Shoebridge’s voice and cadence… for sampling of course.
one day I want to sample Tim saying synthesizer and Legowelt saying synthesizer and have those two samples battle
