The Prophet VS was the last synthesiser to be released under the Sequential Circuits name. After the takeover by Yamaha in 1987, the following synthesisers were released under the Yamaha name.

Here is a demo track only made with the Sequential Prophet VS vector synthesizer from the year 1986. I use only self programmed sounds and the internal arpeggiator.

Sequential Circuits' last synthesiser in the 1980s was the Prophet VS, a hybrid synthesiser that was launched in 1986. It was the last synthesiser developed by Sequential Circuits before the takeover by Yamaha.

The Prophet VS was a digital synthesiser that differed from the company's previous analogue models. It was based on vector synthesis, a technique that made it possible to mix between different waveforms to create complex and versatile sounds. Although the Prophet VS was a digital synthesiser, it included a number of features that set it apart from other digital synthesizers of its time, such as its ability to change and manipulate sounds in real time.

This cover song series contains my own recreations of my favourite songs from the last 50 years. The original music from which I take inspiration belong to their respective owners. I recreate tracks only for personal passion and to pay homage to these tracks.
My intention is not to create covers that sound exactly like the original (if you want to hear identical sounds, please listen the original). It's more of an inspiration with my sounds from the old synthesizers from the past and of course the great appreciation for the original performers and producers.
Check out the original songs with the original artists here on YouTube.
Thank you.

"The definitive Italo-Disco groovebox. 15 crunchy 8-bit PCM drums, analog bass & lead synths running SSM 2044/CEM 3350 filters, and that lush triple-BBD string chorus that melts in stereo.

Arranger & sequencer in one box. 24 preset rhythms + 24 fill-ins, 64 fully-programmable patterns, chord memory and arpeggiator let you write entire tracks without a DAW.

Pro I/O that rivals modern gear. Individual outs for eight drum voices plus separate bass & ensemble outs; full MIDI in/out and tape interface for old-school backup.

'S' upgrades over standard 24. Extra crash-cymbal EPROMs, expanded 8 kB RAM, and—most important—factory 110 V transformer for hassle-free US use.

Undervalued sleeper. Boutique sample libraries (UVI Program 24, ClusterSound, etc.) try to clone this exact box—own the real silicon instead."

Today another synthwave track from me. You know that my heart beats especially for this genre. The music always puts me in a good mood, no matter if I listen to it or make it myself. It always awakens positive feelings in me.
That's why I'm showing you my track Relaunch today. It was made exclusively with the Roland Juno-106, drums: Linndrum and Simmons.
