Sequential Prophet-5 5-Voice Polyphonic Analog Synthesizer
The world's first fully programmable polyphonic synthesizer returns with this rerelease of the Prophet-5. The Prophet-5 Rev4 is Dave Smith's faithful recreation of the iconic analog poly synth. The result is a pure renewal of an analog classic. The Prophet-5 synth has the authentic, muscular sound of the original, with the roadworthiness of a state-of-the-art modern instrument. Features 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 equivalent of the original 2040 filter 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 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 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 Power IEC AC power inlet for internal power supply Operates worldwide on voltages between 100 and 240 volts at 50 to 60 Hz Prophet-5: 20 watts maximum power consumption
