Description

Essential Information About the Sequential Prophet Rev2 16-Voice Synthesizer

  • 16-voice polyphony for playing large chords, layering two 8-voice layers, or splitting the keyboard into two independent instruments.
  • Punchy analog sound thanks to resonant Curtis 2/4-pole low-pass filters, with a characteristic 70s/80s vibe.
  • Two layers per program (Layer A/B) for dense textures, effective live splits, and evolving combinations in the studio.
  • Waveform modulation (Shape Mod) to sculpt moving timbres, including on single-oscillator sounds.

A Modern Classic in the Prophet Lineage

The Prophet Rev2 continues the legacy of the Prophet polysynths, which have become essential in production and on stage. It builds on a solid and immediately musical sound foundation, notably through Curtis filters known for their distinctive character, and expands with a more contemporary approach to modulation and performance. The result: a polyphonic synthesizer crafted for "modernized vintage" sounds, equally comfortable with wide pads, punchy basses, and cutting leads.

Who Is the Prophet Rev2 For?

This synthesizer is aimed at advanced and expert musicians seeking a true sound design instrument, yet remains accessible thanks to a direct interface rich in controls. It excels in electro, techno, synthwave, pop, ambient, and film scoring, with expressive patches (velocity and aftertouch) and an architecture ideal for sound design. In the studio, its two layers and deep modulation allow stacking, animating, and breathing life into timbres; live, the split function, arpeggiator, and multiple outputs simplify setups.

Features and Innovations

The Prophet Rev2 is a subtractive synthesis synthesizer based on two digitally controlled oscillators (DCO) per voice, complemented by a white noise generator, then shaped by a resonant 2/4-pole Curtis low-pass filter and a VCA to preserve attack and impact. Its 16-voice polyphony offers true arrangement freedom: wide chords, complex pads, or stacking two sounds via two layers per program (up to 8 voices per layer). On the modulation side, it features 4 LFOs and 3 envelopes (VCF, VCA, and assignable) for precise movements, while waveform modulation (Shape Mod) adds a particularly effective timbral dimension on the four available shapes (sawtooth, saw + triangle, triangle, square). For rhythmic and melodic creation, the Rev2 includes a polyphonic sequencer up to 64 steps (6 notes per step), a 16x4-step gate sequencer, and an arpeggiator. Finally, the memory offers 512 factory programs and 512 user programs, all fully editable, with two layers in each program, and connectivity designed for both studio and stage (USB, MIDI, multiple outputs, pedal input, and pedal/CV input).

After a few days the order arrived in good condition, complete and on time with GLS transports. Very complete keyboard the REV2 16 is top quality! Pleasant touch, small screen but sufficiently readable, varied factory sounds, some very good but quite technical to modify. Navigation is particular, a complex system, but once you understand the principle... I recommend Woodbrass for the very professional responsiveness and the empathy of its staff. Well packaged product and delivery ok.
