Dave Smith Instruments Prophet 08 PE Product Details
The "potentiometer" edition of the Prophet '08 with more vintage feel.
The standard Prophet '08 encoder used as controls and more vintage feel to ensure control by potentiometer were about 38 (AKA "pots") are replaced. The Prophet '08 PE feels even more to a certain extent "valent" to.
The return of a legend or the beginning of a new era? The Prophet 08 is an 8-voice synthesizer with a 100% analog signal path.
While the overall sound character of the Prophet '08 is likely to be known to those who know Dave Smith's work from the 1970s and 1980s, the new prophet is much more than just a vintage reissue with a few new bells and whistle sounds. Of course, it now includes features we now take for granted such as Velocity and aftertouch. Added features like an arpeggiator, a gated step sequencer, and the ability to split the keyboard plus layered sounds. The modulation possibilities are much deeper than anything Sequential ever has produced, so that the prophet is now able to produce sounds, with the old "classics" were simply not possible. Dave Smith said that he was only interested in making headway. The Prophet '08 is therefore the product of evolution, not nostalgia.
The Prophet '08 has been nominated for the prestigious 2008 TEC Award.
