Sequential Prophet-6 Synthesizer
EAN: 855346000777
The Sequential Prophet-6 from Dave Smith Instruments is a modern, all-analog 6-voice polyphonic synthesizer that pays tribute to the original vintage Prophet 5, but with several enhancements. The synth features true voltage-controlled oscillators, filters, amplifiers, envelopes, and an LFO. Additional enhancements include studio-quality effects, a polyphonic step-sequencer, and an arpeggiator; all of which can be synchronized internally or via external MIDI clock.
The four octave, semi-weighted keyboard offers velocity sensitivity and channel aftertouch, while the control panel offers knob-per-function control with no menu diving. There are 500 permanent factory programs and 500 user programs, which are organized into 10 banks of 100 presets. The Prophet-6 offers an ideal combination of portability and power for the project studio or the gigging musician.
Classic Tone, Classic Vibe
Dual Effects
Poly Mod and Poly Step Sequencing
Easy to Program
Easy to Play

Classic Tone, Classic Vibe
- Two discrete voltage-controlled oscillators (plus sub-oscillator) per voice
- Continuously Variable Waveshapes: Triangle, sawtooth, and variable-width pulse waves
- One 4-pole, resonant, low-pass inspired by the original Prophet-5 filter
- One 2-pole, resonant, high-pass filter
- VCA: Voltage-controlled amplifiers
Dual Effects
- Dual Effect Engine: 24-bit/ 48 kHz resolution
- Studio-quality reverbs, delays (standard and BBD), chorus, and phase shifter
- True bypass maintains a full analog signal path
- Independent stereo 100% analog distortion effect
Poly Mod and Poly Step Sequencing
- Modulation Sources: Filter envelope and oscillator 2 (both with bi-polar control)
- Destinations: Oscillator 1 frequency, oscillator 1 shape, oscillator 1 pulse width, low-pass filter cutoff, and high-pass filter cutoff
- Unison Mode: Configurable voice count (1-6 voices) and key modes
- Polyphonic Step Sequencer: 64 steps with up to 6 notes per step with rests. Syncs to an external MIDI clock
- Arpeggiator: Syncs to external MIDI clock
Easy to Program
- Knob-per-function front panel offers instant access to virtually all Prophet-6 functions
- 1000 Presets: 500 permanent factory programs and 500 user programs organized into 10 banks of 100 programs
- Live Panel Mode: Switches from a preset to current knob and switch settings
Easy to Play
- Four octave, semi-weighted keyboard with velocity and channel aftertouch
- Programmable Backlit Pitch Wheel: 1 to 12 semi-tones
- Backlit modulation wheel
