Le nouveau Prophet-5 «Rev 4» annonce le retour opportun de Dave Smith au synthétiseur poly analogique qui a changé le monde.
C’est «le meilleur de tous les Prophet-5» car il incarne les trois révisions du synthé légendaire – Rev1, Rev2 et Rev3 – grâce à l’utilisation de véritables VCO et filtres analogiques Curtis (comme dans le Rev3) ainsi que du nouveau filtre 2140 passe-bas conçus par Dave Rossum, l’équivalent moderne des filtres 2040 qu’il a conçus dans les Rev1 et Rev2 d’origine. Un commutateur vous permet de choisir entre les deux modèles de filtre.
Le résultat est un renouvellement d’un classique analogique avec le son authentique et musclé de l’original et le contrôle technique d’un instrument moderne à la pointe de la technologie.
Pour donner un effet encore plus authentique au nouveau Prophet-5, nous avons créé le bouton Vintage.
Nous avons même inclus les 40 sons d’usine originaux du Prophet-5.
Caractéristiques :
- Réinvention authentique du Prophet-5 original en apparence et en son
- 5 voix, avec vélocité et aftertouch, MIDI et un clavier Fatar premium
- VCO CEM vintage authentiques
- Filtres vintage authentiques conçus par Doug Curtis et Dave Rossum (commutables)
– Bois de cœur en noyer noir de première qualité, digne d’un collectionneur, en acier et huilé à la main

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

Gate in/out (1 x 1/4” phone jack). Accepts a 1.5 to 15-volt on/off signal to gate the envelopes of a single voice on the Prophet-5. Outputs a 15-volt on/off used to gate the envelopes of an external synth.
Low-pass filter cutoff expression pedal input
Volume expression pedal input
Sustain footswitch input
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.
