Sequential Prophet rev2 // a unique sounding synthesizer

The Sequential Prophet rev2 is a unique sounding synthesizer, I have read so many things about it, a lot of people say it doesn't good, some say it's the best synth ever, well....I love it!
Does it sound like a Prophet 5? No
Does it sound like a Prophet? Absolutely yes
Is it better or worse than a Prophet 5? it's different, it has its own sounds and I really like it, you can dial in any sound really, and it does sound big!
There is one thing though that I've read and I do agree with, it's not an "easy" synth, and by easy I mean that it does take a little bit longer in order to dial in a certain sound that you are looking for.
It offers infinite possibilities of modulation, maybe too many, but it's very easy to use and intuitive.
The possibilty to split the keyboard or to stack two layers of sounds makes it a beast!
Hey, I have just started learning how to play the keyboard so please do not comment on my playing!! haha!

lovely!

@@neuronist thanks a lot!

[@m_g_tek5525]

very cool. I wish this synth wasn't so expensive

[@daniel_mana]

@@m_g_tek5525 thanks man. well it is expensive that's true but if you consider what you get it's a reasonable price, this could definitely be the deserto island synth that you can use for everything, 16 voice polyphony, full analog path, tons of modulation and effects.

The more complex the sounds, the less complex the arrangement should be. Sounds good to me!

[@daniel_mana]

@@StefaanHimpe thank you, I totally agree with you! another reason is that I am learning to play the piano haha...started taking private lessons in may because I really want to be able to use synthesizers the best I can, especially mono synths deserve to be played well...they need a good pkayer in order to hear the best of what they can do. thats just my opinion though.

[@StefaanHimpe]

@@daniel_mana I think that's true of all instruments :) Good luck on the piano lessons!

[@daniel_mana]

@@StefaanHimpe thanks!!

[@daniel_mana]

@@StefaanHimpe yea....it's actually true on all the instruments

I sold mine after a couple of years and purchased the Summit. After having the Summit for a year now i must say i really prefer the Summit. I think the Rev 2 has a better highpass filter however, but the Summit is much more capable of creating different and varied sounds and patches, a much broader pallet. I walways felt a bit limited to the Brassy tonality of the rev 2 and fizz of the curtis filter. The Summit also has the very best Effects on any hardware synth I've played and a really really nice keybed and action.

[@daniel_mana]

thanks for your feedback man! yeah I agree with you in describing the rev2 sound, it really depends on personal preferencies

Well done 🎹

[@daniel_mana]

@@NicolasMelis thank you buddy!!!!

[@GrantBeasleyMusic]

Love the sound of this patch. Is this a square wave LFO into pitch to get the effect?

[@daniel_mana]

thanks!! I think it is, there is other modulation too but I can't remember I'm sorry.
