Full Description

Propel your creativity

The classic sound of the original Prophet 5 wasn't achieved via just its filters and oscillators. The on-board Poly Mod played a large part too. Eager not to leave anything out, this is also present in the Prophet 5. Just like its predecessor, the synthesizer offers modulation sources in the form of oscillator B and a filter envelope. Some of the destinations included in the Prophet 5 are Oscillator A frequency and pulse width, as well as a low-pass filter. A new addition to the synthesizer is the inclusion of Unison mode, this boasts an adjustable voice count, allowing you to choose between one to ten voices. Take this further with the ability to detune and glide.

A modern take on an old favourite

Although Sequential's mission statement was to create a synthesizer that was as accurate, detailed, and faithful to the original, they simply couldn't help themselves! Because of this, the Prophet 5 features a handful of contemporary developments to take your expression when performing above and beyond. Use the all-new velocity sensitivity and aftertouch to have greater control over filter sweeps, LFOs, and amplitude changes.

Easy to program

Not only does the Prophet 5 look and sound great. It's incredibly easy to play and program. The inclusion of the front panel grants you access to immediate sound-shaping possibilities. Should you desire, toggle off the preset button to establish live-panel mode. This allows the Prophet 5 to perform based on where the knobs are currently positioned. The unpredictability of this mode is sure to yield fun and exciting results!

Wide range of controls and connectivity

Thanks to its wide range of controls and connectivity, there's nothing holding you back from achieving great sounds. The inclusion of five-full octaves provide massive scope for musical possibility whilst the semi-weighted Fatar keys are a joy you'll never want to put down. Dive right in and get creative today!

Specifications

  • OSCILLATORS:
    • Two authentic CEM 3340 VCOs per voice
    • Simultaneously selectable wave shapes. Oscillator A: sawtooth, pulse. Oscillator B: sawtooth, triangle, pulse.
    • Pulse width per oscillator
    • Hard sync: oscillator 1 syncs to oscillator 2
    • Low frequency mode (oscillator 2)
    • Keyboard tracking on/off (oscillator 2)
  • MIXER:
    • Oscillator 1 amount
    • Oscillator 2 amount
    • White noise amount
  • LOW-PASS FILTER:
    • Four-pole, resonant, low-pass filter per voice
    • Switchable between authentic versions of the Prophet-5 Rev1/2 filter and Prophet-5 Rev3 filter
    • Rev1/2 filter is a Dave Rossum-designed 2140, the modern counterpart of the original 2040 filter found in the Prophet-5 Rev1 and Rev2
    • Rev3 filter is a Doug Curtis-designed CEM 3320
    • Filter can be driven into self-oscillation with the Resonance control
    • Keyboard tracking: off, half, full
  • FILTER ENVELOPE:
    • Four-stage (ADSR) envelope generator
    • Velocity modulation of envelope amount
  • AMPLIFIER ENVELOPE:
    • Four-stage (ADSR) envelope generator
    • Velocity modulation of envelope amount
  • LOW FREQUENCY OSCILLATOR:
    • Three wave shapes: sawtooth, triangle, square. All waveshapes can be engaged simultaneously
    • Both Initial Amount and mod wheel control
    • Mod destinations: oscillator A frequency, oscillator B frequency, oscillator A and B pulse width, filter cutoff
  • POLY MOD:
    • Sources: filter envelope and oscillator B
    • Destinations: oscillator A frequency, oscillator A pulse width, filter cutoff
  • VINTAGE KNOB:
    • Recreates the characteristics of various Prophet-5 models by varying the behavior of oscillators, envelopes, amplifiers, and other parameters. Go from a very stable “4” — as in Prophet-5 Rev4, (the new version) — all the way to “1,” as in Prophet-5 Rev1, the rarest and most temperamental of all Prophet-5s.
  • AFTERTOUCH:
    • Channel (mono) aftertouch
    • Destinations: filter cutoff frequency, LFO amount
  • PERFORMANCE CONTROLS:
    • Full-sized, semi-weighted, premium Fatar 5-octave keyboard with velocity and aftertouch
    • Mod wheel
    • Spring-loaded pitch wheel with selectable range per program (1 to 12 semitones up and down)
    • Polyphonic glide (portamento)
    • Unison (monophonic) mode with configurable voice count, from one to all five voices and key modes
    • Preset switch: when off, the front panel is live; what you see is what you hear
  • PATCH MEMORY:
    • 200 user and 200 factory programs in 5 banks of 40 programs each
    • Direct program access, including Prophet 5-style single-button access to the current set of 8 programs
