Overview

The return of a legend or the beginning of a new era? The Prophet '08 is an eight-voice synthesizer with a 100% analog signal path. While the Prophet '08's overall sonic character will be familiar to anyone who knows Dave's work from the '70s and '80s, it is much more than just a vintage reissue with a few new bells and whistles. Of course, it includes features we now take for granted, like velocity and aftertouch. Add to that performance features like an arpeggiator, gated 16 x 4 step sequencer, and the ability to split or stack sounds. The modulation possibilities are much deeper than anything Sequential ever produced, making it capable of producing sounds the "classics" simply could not. Dave has always said that he is only interested in moving forward. The Prophet '08 is the product of evolution, not nostalgia.

• The only affordable, full-featured polysynth with a 100% analog signal path.
• Classic, real analog sound—including legendary Curtis analog low-pass filters—married to a modern feature set.
• Compact size, huge sound.
• Tons of knobs for direct, real-time editing and performance.

This monophonic, performance-oriented synth is the latest addition to the Evolver family. The voice architecture is identical to its siblings, but it sports a 3-octave keyboard, pitch and mod wheels, and enough knobs and switches to put a smile on the face of even the most jaded tweaker.

Features

• Monstrous four oscillator voice architecture: two analog and two digital.
• True stereo signal path with separate Curtis analog low-pass filters in each channel.
• Dedicated onboard effects (feedback, delay, distortion, high-pass filter, etc.).
• Highly accessible sound control for easy, intuitive operation: 58 knobs and 33 switches.
• 16 x 4 step sequencer really brings the Evolver to life with evolving “pseudo-polyphonic” sounds – you won’t believe it's mono!
• Stereo audio input for audio processing of external stereo or mono signals, enabling the synth to act as a unique stereo effects processor.
• Everything (sequencer, LFOs, and delay) syncs perfectly to MIDI.
• Easy-to-navigate matrix-style interface for quick editing and real-time control of 8 parameters simultaneously.
• Multiple Evolvers can be daisy-chained for increased polyphony.
