Wave 2 and Stage 4
Wave 2 and Stage 4
I am lucky enough to even have a Stage 4! but I have an opportunity to pick up a used Wave 2 for a VERY good price......Even though a lot of the Wave 2 is already IN the stage 4, I am banking on the fact that there is still loads of other functionality that will make it worth it, especially for this price........I also use a Moog ONE, Prophet 10, YAMAHA MONTAGE 8 and most of the great VST's. any thoughts here.....Thanx in advance

I love my Wave 2, but it sounds as if you already have enough synth power to do anything you would need to do sound wise with all the other instruments. You could always buy it and if it doesn't add anything useful to you probably sell it for what you paid (if the price is low enough).

Re: Wave 2 and Stage 4
Here are my thoughts about the Wave 2, especially when comparing it with the Stage 4:

Re: Wave 2 and Stage 4
I think I would just stick with the NS4 and the other gear you already own. The NS4 really keeps a lot from the NW2 and what is removed seems to be quite minor overall (velocity morph would have been nice though.)
