Product Description

The Prophet-VS V is a groundbreaking exploratory vector synthesiser that brings the legendary sound of the original hardware into modern software form. Combining the precision of digital oscillators with the warmth and character of analogue filters, it offers a uniquely hybrid sonic palette. With over 450 waveforms across four oscillators, users can navigate and blend sounds with a joystick, creating dynamic, evolving textures that span genres from hyperpop to ambient film scoring. Its flexible modulation, LFOs, envelopes, and arpeggiator make movement an integral part of the sound design process. Enhancements to the original architecture, including an expanded mixer envelope and additional modulation options, ensure creativity without complexity. Whether performing live or producing in a DAW, the Prophet-VS V delivers expressive, multi-dimensional soundscapes, echoing the sci-fi tones of the 1980s while embracing modern production workflows. This synthesiser is ideal for musicians, composers, and sound designers seeking a powerful tool to explore new sonic territories.

Features
  • Joystick-Based Vector Synthesis:
    Control and blend up to four oscillators in real time, exploring an expansive, multidimensional sonic landscape with unparalleled expressiveness.
  • Hybrid Digital-Analogue Sound:
    Experience the crisp clarity of digital oscillators combined with emulated Curtis analogue filters and VCAs, producing rich, evolving timbres.
  • Advanced Modulation and Effects:
    Utilise LFOs, envelopes, arpeggiators, and three FX slots to create intricate, evolving patches suitable for any modern production style.

Sound Design Freedom:

Prophet-VS V empowers users to sculpt sound in four dimensions, assigning over 450 single-cycle waveforms to its oscillators. The joystick allows seamless morphing between timbres, producing textures that range from icy digital tones to warm analogue character. Its enhanced modulation capabilities include multiple LFO shapes, looping envelopes, and function generators, enabling highly dynamic patches. Built-in effects and a flexible mixer envelope provide further sonic shaping without overcomplicating the workflow, making it ideal for both intricate studio design and live performance.

Immersive Preset Library:

The synthesiser includes a diverse selection of presets for bass, leads, pads, sequences, keys, and strings. Each preset is crafted to highlight the capabilities of vector synthesis, allowing musicians to quickly find inspiring sounds. From retro 1980s tones to modern hyperpop textures, these presets provide instant creative options while demonstrating the instrument’s expressive potential. Users can explore the sonic possibilities without losing workflow efficiency.

Modern Workflow Integration:

Prophet-VS V is designed for seamless use in modern DAWs or as a standalone instrument. Its redesigned interface maintains the original layout while enhancing usability, and in-app tutorials guide users through all features. MPE and microtuning support, alongside comprehensive modulation and effect options, ensure complete control over every aspect of sound creation. The instrument’s hybrid architecture makes it equally suited to performance, sound design, or studio production.
