General

When the Prophet '08 poly synth by Sequential (formerly known as Dave Smith Instruments) came out in 2007, it was an instant success that's been used in countless music productions since, earning it its well-deserved modern classic status. This time, Sequential presents the Prophet REV2, an 8-voiced polyphonic analogue synthesizer that's essentially a reincarnation of the original Prophet '08, but even better. This Desktop version can be used with your favourite MIDI controllers.

The Sequential Prophet REV2: Pure Playing Pleasure

The REV2 has two oscillators (DCO) per voice and each oscillator offers four waveforms (sawtooth, triangle, sawtooth + triangle, pulse). Furthermore, it offers hard sync and you've got a wide range of filters, envelopes and LFOs at your disposal. There's also a step sequencer and an arpeggiator, as well as modulation options galore. Naturally, this top-notch synth also has all the connection options you could possibly need to integrate it into your current setup. As a joke, Dave Smith called the REV2 a 'monster of a synth' but we agree that it truly is a beast in the best possible sense of the word!
