Designed to capture the DNA of the Prophet in a smaller chassis, the Prophet-5/10 Module Rev4 delivers the grain and "vintage" response that shaped decades of electronic, pop, and soundtrack music. It embodies the spirit of the historical revisions, with components and an approach that respect the original sonic aesthetic, while adding the conveniences expected in a modern studio.
This desktop-format analog synthesizer is aimed at experienced musicians as well as sound designers seeking organic timbres: thick basses, expressive leads, lively pads, and evolving textures. It integrates naturally in the studio (production, arrangement, film scoring) and proves formidable live thanks to its direct access to parameters. Fans of techno, ambient, synthwave, house, indie-pop, or soundtrack music will find an immediately musical palette with a true "Prophet" signature.
The sound architecture relies on two multi-waveform analog oscillators per voice, paired with a 4-pole resonant low-pass filter and analog amplifiers, with dedicated filter and amplitude envelopes. Modulation is based on a multi-waveform LFO and the famous Poly Mod, which allows routing the filter envelope and oscillator B to several key destinations (including filter cutoff, oscillator A frequency, and pulse width). The "Rev" selector offers a choice between the authentic Prophet-5 Rev1/2 and Rev3 filter characters, while the Vintage knob introduces realistic variations from voice to voice (oscillators, filters, envelopes, amplifiers) to recapture the feel of the historic machines, ranging from very stable behavior to a more "capricious" rendering. The whole maintains an immediate workflow, enriched by modern expressivity handling (velocity/aftertouch), comfortable memory, and comprehensive MIDI/USB/CV connectivity to control software, hardware, or modular environments.
