A legend reborn and rejuvenated - the Sequential Prophet-5 embodies all three revisions of the legendary synth and combines them into the ultimate, comprehensive Prophet experience.
As pure and as authentic as you could hope for, this all-analog classic delivers all the sonic magic, charm and character of the original and all the state-of-the-art technology that a modern reincarnation deserves.
Boasting genuine Curtis analog VCOs and filters and a new 2140 low-pass filters designed by Dave Rossum - simply flick a switch to select between the varying designs to adjust the Filter Envelope's shape and response to match the original Prophet Rev 1/2 or Rev 3 respectively.
Complete with modern upgrades such as velocity, aftertouch, full MIDI and USB compatibility AND a unique 'Vintage' control that allows you to dial in some of that vintage character, from the tempremental yet admirable Rev 1, through to the rock-solid stability of the Rev 4.
