Easy to fit, works well
Victor Lazzarini 20.05.2019
Once I figured 8 voices was not enough, I've ordered this expansion board. It came with instructions that were easy to follow. No soldering needed, just open the synth, fit some standoffs, then push the board in place, close the synth, turn it on -- 16 voice.

Best upgrade for your Prophet Rev2
Emanuel Suceu 13.12.2022
Super easy to install and the benefits are immediate: no more note stealing and a more coherent performance when using poly patches with long sustain/reverb tails. I created a video to describe the installation steps. Enjoy! https://youtu.be/AfnJpD9Za6g

Makes a difference
bennyblanco 06.03.2021
Definitely makes a difference when having the Prophet Rev 2 with 16 voices, instead of 8. Splits, duos sound much better and complete. Sound in general is fuller, more complex chords can then be played. Recommend this upgrade.

Worthwhile upgrade
Keyboy 16.04.2026
I initially opted for the 8 voice Rev 2, but ran into note stealing. Although 8 voices is definitely usable, using a "stacked" patch with two layers halves the number of voices available per layer reducing each to 4 voices without the upgrade.

The upgrade immediately allows more flexibility using stacked/split options, making the instrument much more satisfying. However, if you do not use the stacked/split feature often the 8 voice model is likely sufficient.

The installation is very straightforward and fortunately does not require strong DIY skills! I did have to make a couple of attempts, so worth checking that all voices are working as expected before putting the case back on the instrument.
