About This Listing

.

A Modern Classic ReinventedThe module has the same controls with the same the same ease of use as the keyboard version. Best of all, it sounds just as awesome, because its exactly the same on the inside Dave Smiths reimagining of his now-classic Prophet 08 poly synth.The Prophet Rev2 retains all of the key features of the Prophet 08 and expands on them. It has twice the polyphony, twice the mod matrix, waveshape modulation on all waveforms, digital effects per layer in stacked or split voice mode, a polyphonic step sequencer per layer, and more. The result is a true analog powerhouse.You can download any of the many existing libraries of Prophet 08 sounds and they will not only sound identical, but can be enhanced with the new features.8-Voice PolyphonyThis is the 8-voice version of the desktop module which, like the Prophet Rev2 keyboard, can later be expanded to 16-voices with the Expander Kit if desired.Bold SoundThe Prophet Rev2 gets its bold, punchy sound from its 2/4 pole, low-pass, resonant Curtis filters per voice. These are the same filters used not only in the Prophet 08, but in many classic instruments of the 70s and 80s. A separate Audio Mod control adds additional harmonic complexity and movement.Waveshape ModulationA powerful new feature unique to the Prophet Rev2 is waveshape modulation. You can now vary the pulse width of any of the four waveforms (sawtooth, saw+tri, triangle, square). Using the Shape Mod control, you can manually dial in a desired waveshape width or use an LFO or other mod source for continuously shifting timbre. Even single-oscillator sounds take on new depth and dimension. The tonal possibilities are vast.Effects Per LayerThe effects section provides reverb, delays (standard and BBD), chorus, phase shifter, ring modulation, and distortion. In stacked or split voice mode, you can apply a different effect to each layer. Effects parameters can be modulated through the Mod Matrix.Extended Mod MatrixAlso present from its predecessor is an easy-to-assign Mod Matrix, now twice as big, with 8 individual slots and many more sources/destinations. Its a veritable sound designers playground.Poly Step SequencingThe polyphonic step sequencer allows up to 64 steps and up to 6 notes per step. You can create a different sequence for each layer when you are working in stacked or split voice mode, making it a powerful tool for composition or performance. The sequencer also functions as a modulation source in gated mode, allowing you to create up to 4 different 16-step sequences for complex modulation. Sequences allow ties and rests, and can sync to an external MIDI clock. The arpeggiator features note repeats, re-latching, and can be synced to external MIDI clock, as well.Per-Knob ProgrammabilityThe knob-per-function front panel offers instant access to Prophet Rev2 functions. Included are 512 permanent factory programs and 512 rewritable user programs.Eminently PlayableAll of this polyphonic muscle is packed into a compact desktop module with an integrated power supply, USB support, and a crisp OLED display. Whether youre gigging or recording, its an analog powerhouse like no other.Features: 2 digitally controlled analog oscillators (DCOs) per voice (plus sub octave on oscillator 1) with selectable sawtooth, triangle, saw/triangle mix, and pulse waves (with pulse-width modulation) Polyphonic step sequencer with up to 64 steps (6 notes per step), Programmable arpeggiator with up, down, up+down, random, assign modes 5 additional dedicated sources: mod wheel, pressure, velocity, breath controller, footswitch 55 knobs and 35 buttons enable deep and comprehensive editing with little to no menu diving. 512 Factory Programs (4 banks of 128) and 512 fully editable User Programs with 2 layers (2 separate sounds) in each Program Pedal/CV input: responds to expression pedals or control voltages ranging from 0 to 5 VDC Oiled African mahogany wood end panelsGet your Dave Smith Instruments Prophet Rev2 Desktop Polyphonic Analog Synthesizer
