Sequential Prophet-6, Analog Synthesizer, 49 Key, 6 Voice, Discrete VCOs per Voice, Dual 24-Bit 48 kHz Digital Effects, Dave Smith Instruments Model DSI-2600.

The Prophet-6 takes the best qualities of the original Prophet-5 - true voltage-controlled oscillators, filters, and amplifiers—and adds enhancements such as studio-quality effects, a polyphonic step sequencer, an arpeggiator, and more. The result is pure, unadulterated analog tone with the stability and reliability of a state-of-the-art modern synth. Central to the warm, punchy sound of the Prophet-6 are its discrete voltage-controlled oscillators (plus sub-oscillator) per voice. Continuously variable waveshapes provide the tonal palette with triangle, sawtooth, and variable-width pulse waves. There are two discrete filters per voice - a four-pole, resonant, low-pass inspired by the original Prophet-5 filter, and a two-pole, resonant, high-pass filter. Voltage-controlled amplifiers complete the all-analog signal path.

• The dual effects section provides studio-quality reverbs, delays (standard and BBD), chorus and phase shifter
• True to the original, modulation sources are filter envelope and oscillator 2 (both with bi-polar control
• The knob-per-function front panel offers instant access to virtually all Prophet-6 functions
• Packed into a four octave, semi-weighted keyboard with velocity and channel aftertouch that’s an ideal combination of portability and power
• Walnut end panels and trim
