Description

Prophet-VS V captures the crisp digital precision and stirring sci-fi sound of an instrument that pioneered vector synthesis. Pick your waveforms, perfect your sound, and explore multiple digital dimensions simultaneously with an enhanced softsynth workflow.

A prophecy retold
The razor-sharp precision and overtone-rich sound of digital; the silky warmth and edgy crunch of analog; the flexibility and expressive creativity of software instruments; why choose one when you can have all three?

Prophet-VS V faithfully unites the crisp sound of digital oscillators with the grainy character of analog filters and VCAs, just like its legendary hardware predecessor. This is vector synthesis brought to life in software form, letting you move between hot and cold, rough and smooth, analog and digital - a hybrid relic reborn for effortless modern production.

4-dimensional sound
Go beyond crossfading and blending waveforms with Prophet-VS V’s authentic joystick oscillator section. Assign any of the 450+ waveforms to its 4 oscillators, and seamlessly modulate and navigate the near-limitless space between them for a breathtaking sonic spectrum.

Unashamedly digital
Prophet-VS V channels the crystalline clarity, rich harmonic depth, and icy layered timbres that early digital synths were known for, then runs it through emulated Curtis analog filters and amps for an abrasive hybrid sound, overflowing with aliasing imperfections; perfect for hyperpop, trap, EDM, and ambient sound design.

Automate, modulate
Prophet-VS V’s sound is all about movement. When you’re not navigating the space between its 4 digital oscillators, employ its LFO groups, flexible envelope generators, and built-in arpeggiator to make your patches dance and evolve in a few clicks.

Simple yet advanced
While the original Prophet VS’ digital architecture afforded it plenty of flexibility, we figured a little more wouldn’t hurt. Take its sound further with tasteful enhancements to original features like the mixer envelope, plus extra modulation and built-in effects - without over-complicating your flow.

The future was digital
At the start of the ‘80s, analog was dominating. But the introduction and gradual widespread adoption of microprocessing foreshadowed a massive change that would shape not just keyboards and synths of the future, but the very music they were designed to make.

Legendary synth designer Dave Smith and his team at Sequential Circuits had been early advocates of microprocessor technology, putting them to use in the Prophet-5 to program and store presets. By the mid-80s, single-cycle waveforms were becoming the go-to for low-memory sound generation. Smith envisioned a way in which this technology could be used to create detailed sound combinations, and in 1986, this vision became a reality with the Prophet VS.

Find your vector
Set a course for a vibrant trip through the sought-after sounds of vaporwave, hyperpop, future bass, ambient film scores, and beyond.

Explore digital sound on an unprecedented scale, with millions of possible waveform combinations, and a multi-dimensional spectrum to discover within each combination with the joystick and modulation interface. The sonic possibilities of this vector synthesis machine are staggering.

Put simply, Prophet-VS V lets you immerse your projects in the fluorescent keyboard tones of the ‘80s, the knife-edge sounds of hardcore and future pop, the iconic suspense of sci-fi soundtracks, and universes beyond.

Preset library
For when you need quick results, Prophet-VS V comes equipped with a library of expertly-designed presets for any style. Hone in on the sound you need in seconds without interrupting your flow.

Bass
Electro Slapper
Fat and juicy bass sound, versatile across different musical genres.
90s Club Bass
Solid electronic bass uses sawtooth and square waveforms for maximum energy.

Leads
Love Me Hard
Harsh tones lead sound uses a Rate modulated Function to create a constantly changing character.
Divas Chord
Super tight house chord uses identical waveforms tuned to a minor 7th scale.

Pads
Padalog
Classic analog warm choir pad with a touch of slight moving.
Artistic Facts
This atmospheric pad sound is created with effects in mind, you can disable those by turning the time and movement macros to zero.

Sequences
Drifting Pressure
Polyphonic synth preset with rhythmic modulation on the oscillator waveforms.
Driven Vectors
A hard driven sound with a touch of chorus.

Keys
Dreamy Clock
Soft keys patch that slightly changes its tone during its decay phase.
Blue Bells
Bright bell-like synth, typical of the original unit.

Strings
04 STRING_1
Prophet-VS V original factory preset.
Wide Open Spaces
Super wide strings.

Easy as A, B, C, and D
We’ve rebuilt Prophet-VS V as a standalone instrument - now you can get hands-on with its redesigned main panel, retaining the key features and layout while streamlining it for your DAW workflow.

What we added
If 450+ waveforms and a host of slick digital-synth-inspired features weren’t enough, we expanded Prophet-VS V with a little more of the stuff you might need.
Combine and customize with an expanded version of the original hardware’s Mixer Envelope, designed to draw unique shapes with the joystick, or deep-dive with 2 additional envelope types.
