Arturia Prophet VS V Vector Synthesis Instrument - Elec Del

Product Description

The Arturia 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

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.

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.

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.

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.

While the original Prophet VS’ digital architecture afforded it plenty of flexibility, Arturia 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

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.
