The
new Prophet-5 “Rev 4” is Dave Smith's timely return to the analog poly synth
that changed the world. It’s “the best of all Prophet-5s” because it embodies
all three revisions of the legendary synth—Rev1, Rev2, and Rev3—through the use
of genuine Curtis analog VCOs and filters (as in the Rev3) as well as new 2140
low-pass filters designed by Dave Rossum, the modern equivalent of the 2040
filters he designed in the original Rev1 and Rev2. A Rev switch lets you
choose between the two filter designs.
The result is as pure a renewal of an analog
classic as you could wish for, with the authentic, muscular sound of the
original and the roadworthiness of a state-of-the-art modern instrument.
To give even more authentic mojo to the new
Prophet-5, we created the Vintage knob. Use it to dial in as much
old-school randomness as you’d like and it will loosen up the oscillators and
envelopes just like they were in the good old days. It lets you dial in
progressively more vintage character as you go from a stable 4 (as in Prophet-5 Rev4) all the way to
1 (as in Prophet-5 Rev1,
the rarest and most temperamental of all
Prophet-5s).
We’ve even included the original 40 Prophet-5
factory sounds.
