Prophet REV2 - Harsh? Bland? Static? Lifeless? - Really??


video upload by Orano Music

Note Orano Music has done demos for the Sequential OB-6, OB-X8, Prophet-6, Prophet-5/10, and Trigon-6, as well as the Novation Summit and Moog One as seen in previous posts here.

"I have read so many reviews about the REV2 being too 'static', 'lifeless', 'harsh' 'Brittle' and so on...

The REV2 is an extremely capable synth, and with some careful programming can compete with the best of them.

This Patch has no effects, nothing, it is completely dry. and to me sounds very organic, full of character, and very analog indeed. This was not using any analog modelling techniques, doesn't use the step sequencer for variants. which if used would make it sound even more analog! (if that's possible)

in a nutshell, the REV2 requires some work to achieve the same results as you would get from its upper range counterparts, but talk about value for money, this synth is very impressive!

if in doubt, grab one!

Custom REV2 Patches will be available soon at https://www.orano.co.uk/shop

enjoy!
Scott."
