Sequential Prophet 5 is a must-have for anyone that's serious about synths. The Prophet 5 was described by Dave Smith as "the best of all Prophet-5s", it doesn't get much better than this. The Prophet 5 boasts five voices and two multi-waveform analog oscillators. It is the combination of all the greatest aspects of the Rev1, Rev2, and Rev3 editions. Rest assured knowing you're getting nothing short of excellent. The Prophet 5 comes complete with premium quality Curtis analog VCOs and filters, as well as all new 2140 low-pass filters. Engage the Rev switch to alternate between these two unique filter designs.
Not only did Sequential go to great lengths to source the original hardware components for maximum aesthetic appeal. Detailed research was made into recreating its desirable, organic tone. They realised that much of the Prophet's appeal was based on the subtle fluctuations and different response times between each VCO, filter, envelope, and amplifier. Take this one step further by adjusting the all-new vintage knob. This allows you to dial in the "perfect" amount of "imperfection". The varying stages allow you to achieve a seemingly infinite number of sounds.
The inclusion of 200 factory presets and an additional 200 user-defined programs allow you to achieve great sounds straight out of the box. What's more, the Prophet 5 includes the original 40 presets from the first Prophet released in 1978. These are the very same presets that have found their way onto may iconic albums and soundtracks. All of which are now available at your finger tips.
Ex-Demo: This product may be ex-display, have light signs of use, have slight cosmetic marks or may have non-essential parts or software missing. The original box, packaging or manual may not be included. Each item is checked by our team of repair technicians to ensure it meets our high standards.

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.
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.
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!
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!
