Prophet V

Arturia

Where to get itAvailable from Arturiaarturia.com

Prophet V is a software synthesizer that emulates the classic Prophet 5 and Prophet VS synthesizers in a single plugin. It combines subtractive synthesis with vector synthesis capabilities, offering authentic analog emulation through Arturia's TAE technology for warm, characterful sound. The three interface modes (Prophet 5, Prophet VS, and Hybrid) provide flexibility for creating everything from classic polyphonic pads to complex evolving textures.

Key Features

0154 synthesis parameters in Prophet 5 mode with 2 oscillators, mixer, 24 dB/octave low-pass filter, and dual ADSR envelopes
024 oscillators with 96 waveform samples in Prophet VS mode using vector synthesis with 2D joystick mixing
035-point envelopes with loop function for complex modulation beyond standard ADSR
0496 wavetable samples for diverse sonic palette
05Modulation matrix for routing any source to any parameter
06Hybrid interface combining both synthesizers simultaneously with audio connection matrix
07Aliasing-free oscillators via TAE technology with PWM and FM support
08Direct filter circuit modeling emulating analog 4-pole low-pass filter with self-oscillation harmonics
09Stereo chorus (3 types) and stereo delay with independent left/right control
10400 factory presets organized by synthesizer type and sound category
11Real-time MIDI controller assignment with NRPN support
12Sound Map preset explorer with morphing feature between up to 4 presets

Things to Try

  • 01Increase resonance on the filter cutoff to enable self-oscillation and create whistling effects characteristic of analog Prophet sound
  • 02Use the mixer envelope in Prophet VS to automate joystick movement between 4 oscillators by setting 5-point positions and time values between 800-3000 ms
  • 03Add LFO modulation to filter cutoff by clicking the modulation matrix intersection point between LFO1 source and Cutoff destination, then adjusting the modulation amount
  • 04Layer the Prophet 5 and Prophet VS in Hybrid mode via the audio connection matrix to add a fourth oscillator source and route it through different filter types
