Imagine... You’re looking at your computer
screen and within two clicks you find exact recreations of two of the
most influential analogue and digital synths existing in the 1980’s:
Then, with another click, you find a perfect
fusion of both of these; an instrument giving you a remarkable spectrum
of timbres ranging from the digital crystalline to the warmth of analog.
With the PROPHET V, you no longer have to imagine.
Arturia has taken the FIRST and LAST
synthesizers created by Sequential Circuits and brought them to you in
an easy to use software format. As with all other soft-synths created
by Arturia, we bring you a replica of the Prophet 5 and VS both
visually and sonically. Using the PROPHET V will be second nature for
all you old-pros, and if you’re new to the synthesizers, the only thing
you’ll miss by not having the hardware versions is the workout from
transporting them to the studio. Since the PROPHET V is designed with
Arturia’s TAE® technology, you can be sure you won’t give up sound
quality.
There are three interfaces in the Prophet V:
Prophet 5, Prophet VS, and Hybrid mode. The Prophet 5 and Prophet VS
emulations have all the goodies of the originals (5 voice polyphony,
white noise modulators, dynamic waveform crossfading with joystick,
etc). You can even import any existing preset banks from the original
synthesizers in a format called SysEx sound data. This data was one of
the truly unique attributes of the original synthesizers because it
allowed musicians to save their presets for one of the first times
ever. With Arturia's Prophet V, we have respected this spirit by
allowing you to use the presets you've already created in the original
synthesizer while playing the synthesizer in its software counterpart.
The Hybrid mode is both synthesizers stacked one on top of the other offering you an entirely new world of possibilities.

Syncrosoft Protection
The Prophet V application is delivered with
a USB key containing your Prophet V license and authorizes the software
to function. To use the software on a different machine, simply install
the software on that computer and then plug in the USB key. In this
way, you can use this system key to install licenses of other Arturia
products, or other products that use Syncrosoft technology, and carry
the license from computer to computer as you wish.
In order to function correctly, the USB key
driver must be already installed on your system. The installation
program for the Syncrosoft License Control Center is available on
CD-Rom and will be launched automatically when you install Prophet V.
