Another variation of the legendary Prophet, a creatively rethought Dave’s keyboard. Modern approach to classic analog architecture, dual effects engine, polyphonic step sequencer, Poly Mod. No trouble with programming, a 6-voice instrument is amazing for live performances. 2 discrete filters, 2 discrete VCOs per voice and a sub. Among most pleasant specs there is a studio quality digital effects section, analog stereo distortion, and built-in multimode arpeggiator syncable to external MIDI clock. A knob per function concept of the front panel satisfies the requirements for a performing keyboard – a 4-octave semi-weighted keyboard with velocity and aftertouch support.

The voltage-controlled oscillators feature continuously variable waveshapes (sawtooth, triangle, variable-width pulse waves). A 2-pole resonant high-pass and a 4-pole resonant low-pass filters contribute into precious altering of the sound. Prophet 6 is based on the all-analog signal path which comprises analog oscillators, discrete filters and voltage-controlled amplifiers.

Poly Mod was taken from Prophet 5 and integrated into P6. The Unison mode, two modulation sources (filter envelope and Osc 2), and a 64-step polyphonic step-sequencer allows for 6 six notes per step are at your disposal.

You get 500 factory programs and 500 user ones. The digital dual FX section provides you with reverb, delay (both classic and “bucket brigade”), phase shifter and chorus. True bypass and a stereo distortion are the only analog features among the effects.
