Glitchy Lofi Beats w/ Rhodes MK2, Digitakt, Prophet-10 | Humid 2025-06-12 by atnr
video upload by atnr
"A track built with the Rhodes MK2, @WeAreElektron Digitakt, and @SequentialLLC Prophet-10—a glitchy lo-fi beat where electric-piano chords, synth lines, and chopped rhythms interlock.
Rhodes MK2: Runs through a CE-5 chorus, then the @ChaseBlissAudio GENERATION LOSS MK II for tape coloration, giving the sound a slightly wobbly feel.
Prophet-10: Plays a simple phrase with reverb from a @strymon blueSky.
Digitone: (using sliced drum hits) reconstructs the rhythm, while the @ChaseBlissAudio MOOD MK II adds reverb, pitch-shifts, and micro-loop glitches."

PlantsSystem-Diminish
video upload by plantssystem
"Precise and organic. PlantsSystem latest track, 'Diminish' is an ambitious work that uses the rough texture of analog equipment from the 70s and 80s to create a futuristic sound image.
The dry and sharp rhythm of the BOSS Dr.55 is impressive for its inorganic hardness while maintaining the precision of a metronome. Layered on top of that is the swell and spread of the sound of the Sequential Prophet-5. The filter changes and modulation movements create gentle ripples in the space. And the Yamaha CS-10 gives the low range a strong outline, firmly supporting the whole.
'Diminish' is not just a retro nostalgia hobby. It combines the rawness of analog equipment with modern architectural beauty to present a soundscape that transcends the time axis. The noise and fluctuations that suddenly appear in the meticulous construction are like the sound of a plant growing picked up by a microphone. As befits the name PlantsSystem, this is a musical experience that shakes up the boundaries between artificial and natural. #dr55 #prophet5 #cs10"

Why J3PO Keeps Coming Back to the Prophet 5/10
video upload by Julian J3PO Pollack
"The Prophet 5 and Prophet 10 (both the reissue and the vintage ones) are iconic synths—but are they still relevant today?
My name is Julian Pollack (AKA J3PO) and In this video, I share my honest thoughts after spending years with the Prophet 10 reissue: what makes it so inspiring, why I can get bored with it,, and why—despite its limitations—I keep coming back to it.
No FX. Very limited modulation. Mono output. No frills. Just that raw, three-dimensional sound that somehow cuts through everything and makes us want to come back for more.
🎛️ Get my Prophet 5/10 presets from my website: https://www.julianpollack.com/shop/p/...
CHAPTERS:
00:00 Intro
01:40 Dry Examples (no FX)
04:03 Lead Patches with FX
04:59 Exp. & Sustain Pedal Tricks
07:10 Sawtooth Patch with Chorus & Reverb
08:36 Patch Demos with FX
11:39 Conclusion
If you're curious about the Prophet 5/10—or wondering why it was reissued and why people still talk about the original vintage ones decades later—this video is for you.
All the music you hear in this video (including the underscore) was created with ONLY my Prophet 10."

"It's a monster! ..yes, it's digital.. but, when you hear a 96kHz synth.. you quickly realize.. if there IS to be a digital synth.. then 96k is where it should be.. at that frame rate.. it's not 'steppy' and a lot smoother than the 'others', IMO. I'm the only owner of this 'lonely heart'. Bought it new, back when Awave was in a tiny arcade next to South Yarra station. It was the only synth that's ever 'tricked' me.. I thought it was analog 'something'. It just sounded too 'pure'.. so, I had to have it.. unfortunately, I haven't used it as much as it deserves.
This Solaris has resided in my smoke free studio since it was purchased new. Never toured, original PSU and manual (not that the manual is much use to anyone anymore.. that is.. with the advent of the newly developed V2 OS). For those that don't know, John was instrumental working alongside the late great Dr Robert Moog, in fact, he was there, in the early 70s, working alongside Dr Bob on the original MiniMoog.. fast forward a few years.. and there he was working alongside the late great Dave Smith @ Sequential Circuits. John worked on the Prophet 5, the VS and the Sequential Sampler, the Prophet 2000.
This was shortly before Yamaha acquired Sequential and retrenched the staff, yep.. that old chestnut.. and John went on to work at Korg where he was behind the WaveStation (basically he took his knowledge of the Korg VS and threw it into the WaveStation, as some might already be aware of). So, with all that history under his belt.. when it was time for John, whom I refer to as 'synth god', John started development on the Solaris.The Solaris is the culmination of all his passed work and synth experience, despite the panel often likened to the Oberheim Matrix 12, John had implemented Filters, Wave shapes, Step Sequencers, and not to forget 'Wave Sequencing' that've appeared in all his passed projects on those aforementioned classic synths, that he worked closely on with 'other' synth gods such as Dave Smith and Dr Bob Moog.
So, you could say.. the Solaris is what a 21st century synth-classic 'ought' to be. And, ultimately, that's why I wanted it, but.. I'm afraid, as good as it is.. it's more synth than I've ever needed...x10! It would be much more suited towards professional sound designers than someone who messes around with Samplers more often that not. Therefore, I'll let it go to another enthusiast.. other esteemed 'registered' owners in the Solaris forum are Hans Zimmer, Harry Gregson-Williams, JJ Abrams, Jean-Michel Jarre, Matt Johnson, Ty Unwin to name a few.
In a nutshell, if had a paragraph to sum it up.. it's like a Matrix-12 integrated with a WaveStation and then there's CEM, SSM, Moog and Prophet 5 'mimicked' filters and oscillator shapes... basically, loads of features and 'flavors' from every 'beast synth' before it.
Main features:
10 Voice Polyphony
4 Oscillators
4 Filters
6 Envelope Generators
4 LFO's (+1 for Vibrato)
16 Step Sequencer
Arpeggiator
8 analog outputs (4 stereo)
Digital (ADAT) Output
MIDI over DIN & USB
15 kg / 33 Lbs
Comes with the original Australian 240v external PSU"

Velocité - full album (Mike Oldfield meets Air & Tame Impala)
video upload by Caught In Joy
"Inspired by the fluid energy of Tangerine Dream, the layered elegance of Mike Oldfield, and the dreamlike pulse of Air and Tame Impala, this album explores the strange intersections of speed and stillness.
Velocité is a deep, cinematic dive into motion, memory, and momentum—an hour-long journey shaped by analog synths, ambient textures, and hypnotic rhythms.
Created live and mixed with obsessive attention to detail, Velocité captures that fleeting feeling of being in transit—somewhere between the past and the future. Best experienced in one uninterrupted listen.
Composed, mixed and mastered by Caught In Joy. Karol Pokojowczyk uses Bitwig, Moog One, Moog Matriarch, Prophet-10, 3x Moog Mavis, TipTop Buchla modules, Make Noise Strega, Strymon Magneto, Arturia V-Collection and an army of guitar pedals. Performed and recorded live on tape with TEAC 80-8.
Timeline:
00:00:00 - 1. Velocité
00:10:16 - 2. Clockwork Pastoral
00:17:11 - 3. Microfilm Memory
00:26:36 - 4. Carbon Copies of You
00:28:12 - 5. Cigarettes and VU Meters
00:36:02 - 6. Beta Tape Ballet
00:44:34 - 7. Elevator to the Ether Pt.1

Crossover Beat w/ Rhodes Mark 2, Prophet-10, OP-1 field, Drums & Bass | Ordeal 2025-03-30 by atnr
video upload by atnr
"A piece created using the Rhodes Mark II, Prophet-10, and @teenageengineering OP-1 field. The Rhodes harmonies repeat in sync with the drums and bass, while the melody goes wild through the MOOD MK II.
On the Rhodes Mark II, I perform with a @BOSSinfoglobal CE-5 chorus effect.
I play the intro and interlude on the @SequentialLLC Prophet-10, adjusting the filter during the interlude.
The drums are recorded and reconstructed in a DAW.
The bass is recorded into the DAW through a SANS AMP BASS DRIVER.
On the OP-1 field, I play the melody while manipulating the @ChaseBlissAudio MOOD MK II CLOCK for pitch shifting. Midway, I adjust the REVERB TIME to create a noisier sound."

"Got 5 hours of sleep last night. Had something frustrating happen (possible loss of $$$), not the worst thing in the world of course, just frustrating. After this track, I'll go back and see what else I can do with the Cirklon.
Moog Minimoog = bass
Sequential Prophet 12 = Main melody line
Sequential Prophet 10 = background chime sound
Radikal Technologies Spectralis 2 = sequencing and lead later in the track
Clavia Nord Drum 2 = drums
Native Instruments Raum = reverb"

"Vintage Sequential Circuits Prophet 10 Dual Manual Keyboard Synthesizer with Flight Case This Prophet 10 is in very good condition, and is fully functional, although the Braemer tape drive has not been tested. Has factory MIDI and sequencer, and the original blue Prophet-10 flight case on wheels. This may be one of the last Prophet-10s made, as the S/N is 0444. It's big and heavy!! Includes power cord, electronic copies of the operation manual and service information, and one original Sequential footswitch. The flight case foam is serviceable, but could use replacement. The synth is wrapped in plastic within the flight case. Full pictures are here [captured below]. By far the most prevalent of the original Prophet 10 models, the Prophet 10 Rev3 was a better built version than the previous 2 iterations for more consistent and reliable performance. It used Curtis Electronics Manufacturing chips, and featured 2 VCOs per voice, a low pass resonant filter with ADSR, LFO, & cv/gate controls. This rarely seen monster analog synth is by far one of the fattest and nicest vintage synthesizers.

Rhodes Mark 2 Prophet-10 Ambient Ø MOOD MK II | Your Dream 2025-03-07 by atnr
video upload by atnr
"A piece created using the Rhodes MK2, @SequentialLLC Prophet-10, and @SONICWARE LIVEN Ambient Ø. Minimal Rhodes tones are layered with electronic sounds from a synthesizer.
The Rhodes MK2 is processed through a send/return using the @BOSSinfoglobal CE-5 for chorus, and a slight delay is applied at the final output via @strymon TIMELINE.
On the Prophet-10, I perform monophonic pad sounds, with the output processed by Strymon blueSky to add deep reverb.
Ambient Ø is played manually while adjusting the parameters on the@ChaseBlissAudio MOOD MKII."

Ambient w/ Rhodes MK2, OP-1 field, Prophet-10 | Forgotten Sands 2025-02-25 by atnr
video upload by atnr
"A piece created using the Rhodes MK2, @teenageengineering OP-1 field, and @SequentialLLC Prophet-10. The sound of a synth pad resonates with the delayed and chorused tones of the Rhodes, while sounds like bells and a rainstick can be heard in the background.
The Rhodes MK2 is processed with chorus via the @BOSSinfoglobal CE-5 and delay via @strymon TIMELINE.
The Prophet-10 is run through blueSky for reverb, with phrases composed of a mix of MIDI sequences and live playing.
The OP-1 field triggers MIDI sequences while its built-in NITRO effect applies filtering, and @gfisys SPECULAR TEMPUS adds Shimmer Reverb. Variations in the intensity of the shimmer and the opening and closing of the filter cause the same harmony to resonate differently."
