Hive 2 is one reason. Very, very comparable, and one that Urs basically called "Zebra in a candy bar" - or something to that effect. I thought, at least at the oscillator level when comparing them, Hive 2 > Dune 3. I do think people should at least have one or the other. Both is probably overkill... which isn't always a bad thing, either.YMMV of course, but it’s a head scratcher to me that any synth lover wouldn’t have Dune high on their list!
Now, if you've mastered Zebra, would you also want/need Hive2? Perhaps, if only for potential inspiration differences in layout and structure. Hive2 is more capable that it appears, but it's no Zebra for flexibility (it trades off convenience and efficiency vs. flexibility).
Zebra is clearly a winner as far as adoption amongst successful professionals, as evidenced by Rctec weighing in. I'm not sure if it's because of that, or in addition, but the other U-He offerings seem to also be getting more notice/use (e.g. Hive 2).
