"Immaculately restored, this legendary instrument has undergone a meticulous overhaul, including the replacement of all electrolytic capacitors and the installation of a brand new battery, ensuring flawless performance for years to come.
The addition of a CHD MIDI kit allows you to seamlessly integrate this iconic synthesizer into your contemporary music production setup, bridging the gap between vintage charm and modern technology.
Ultimate Polyphonic Power San Francisco, CA — Today, Sequential announced the desktop module of the powerhouse Trigon-6 polyphonic synthesizer, their modern take on a true-classic analog design. The desktop version is a compact and portable instrument that still packs in all the sound generation capabilities of its formidable keyboard sibling. It features three oscillators per voice and a ladder filter that has been updated with a dedicated drive and feedback control, making it easy to go from silky and smooth to bold and crunchy with the twist of a knob. This versatility makes Trigon-6 the perfect companion for your studio or live performance.
The desktop module is more than just a smaller version of the keyboard Trigon-6. It’s an expressive and potent instrument that delivers warm, organic, analog sound in its own right. “Desktop module designs continue to be a popular choice with our players,” said CEO David Gibbons. “We spent a little extra time on MIDI polyphonic expression capabilities as we finalized this one, in anticipation of people pairing it up with some of the awesome MPE-capable controllers on the market. We’re looking forward to hearing what people will do with it!”
Three is a Magic Number The Trigon-6 desktop module offers a classic three-oscillator synth architecture with an enhanced ladder filter, inspired by some of the most iconic analog synths of all time. The three oscillators provide a rich and flexible sound source, with familiar waveforms from triangle to more complex saws, and variable-width pulse. You can mix and match the oscillators to create intricate harmonics, detune them for thick chorusing effects, or sync oscillator 2 for hard-edged growls. Meanwhile, the ladder filter completes the heart and soul of the Trigon-6, providing a smooth and musical response that can shape your sound from creamy and mellow to mangled and aggressive. The filter has a 2/4-pole switchable slope and adjustable resonance that can add a distinctive peak or even self-oscillate for screaming leads and sci-fi effects. And with Drive and Feedback engaged, get ready to melt some faces!
Greater Expression Through MPE Now Trigon-6 lets you shape every note with MPE. MIDI Polyphonic Expression (MPE) is an extension of MIDI that allows compatible devices to control multiple parameters of individual notes within MPE-enabled synths. This provides for more expressive instrumental performances, as each note can have its own pitch bend, filter cutoff, amplitude, and other modulations. You will be able to bend, slide, vibrato, swell and morph your sounds with unprecedented feeling and subtlety. Experience the classic 3-oscillator, ladder filter sound like never before with Trigon-6, the groundbreaking polyphonic analog synth that lets you truly perform every nuance of your music with MPE. The Trigon-6 synthesizer is a testament to Dave Smith’s legacy and innovation. It has all the best qualities of Sequential’s acclaimed Prophet-6 and OB-6 synths — 6-voice polyphony, unrivaled playability, and easy programmability. It also features a global LFO, a polyphonic step sequencer, an arpeggiator, and a dual effect processor with chorus, ring modulation, flanger, phaser, delay, and reverb effects. Don’t miss this opportunity to get your hands on the Trigon-6 desktop module, the polyphonic power-synth that fits your studio, your music, and your life.
Specifications Trigon-6 desktop module weighs approximately 10.9 lbs. (4.95 kg) and measures 22.00” L x 8.45” W x 4.54” H (55.88 cm x 21.46 cm x 11.53 cm).
Trigon-6 desktop module is available for pre-order now, with a US MAP price of $2,499. Shipping worldwide in August. For more information about the Trigon-6 desktop module, visit us at: https://www.sequential.com/product/trigon-6-desktop-module/
About Sequential Originally launched in 2002 as Dave Smith Instruments, Sequential was founded by legendary electronic instrument designer Dave Smith. His many accomplishments included the creation of the Prophet-5 — the world’s first fully programmable polyphonic synthesizer — and his legacy as the primary driving force behind MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface). Now helmed by CEO David Gibbons, an audio and music industry veteran, Sequential creates innovative synthesizers with the highest level of craftsmanship and care for discerning musicians around the world.
"The Prophet 10 is a wonderful analog synthesizer. However, from tuning issues to dropped notes, there were a few bumps in the road to reach my destination. Follow me on my journey as I explore this amazing instrument!

Replacing the Main Board in a Sequential Prophet 5/10
"I had to replace the main board in my Sequential Prophet 10 because when the Rev 1/2 filters were selected, some of the notes would drop out. This is, however, after I had already replaced this keyboard because my first keyboard would not stay in tune. I'll be posting another video touching on this in the near future.
Sequential sent me new boards and I recorded a quick, down and dirty video documenting the procedure for anyone else who might have to replace their boards and wanted to see what's involved.
I followed these instructions provided by Sequential Support:
Hats off to Sequential Support. This company really is top-notch and despite the issues I had with the hardware, I can tell the Sequential team really cares and is extremely helpful and supportive! Thank you, Sequential!"
"I love the retro Juno 60 and 106 but with the crazy prices as of late, I am not ready to pull the trigger on investing in one. However, the Roland JU-06A is scratching that itch until the day comes I have my own Juno 60!
Enjoy seeing me turn two JU-06A synths together into an 8-voice Juno 60 and 106!"
"Testing out the Arturia Drumbrute Impact and a Ibanez AD202 Analog Delay.
This Delay has a Chorus (not used in this test), Flanger, Doubling and Delay Mode.
Recording in mono and to catch some high boost level i used an ART PWM Limiter.
In the last part of the demo i use a lot of input distortion.

"Update 1.0.3 introduces a new 'Freeze' Mode, which enables you to switch between already recorded sound (snippets) and the dry input signal. This means, you can toggle between 2 (totally) different sounds now.
Molli Looper is a realtime stereo effect for looping and filtering.
Intended mainly as an easy to use live performance tool, no preparation is needed to trigger loop recording - input is constantly recorded in the background to be triggered whenever it is needed.
You can use Molli Looper either as iOS Standalone app or as AUv3 plugin.

"Winter Plankton Zaps firmware has been updated to V1.1. We have introduced new randomize template modes for quickly creating bassdrums, snares, and other percussion sounds, simultaneous control of both oscillators (for melodic lines), a new trigger delay setting to get proper slot changes with mot sequencers and an screen saver among other things.
New features and improvements:
New 'Randomize' templates for creating Sounds and Banks: Bass drum 1, Bass drum 2, Snare drum, Low drum toms, FM percussion, FM and AM percussion, Glass AM, Pitched FM tones, High tones, Multi-drum 1, Multi-drum 2, Chaos, Dirty 1, Dirty 2, Retrigger envelope 1, Retrigger envelope 2, and Full set template (for Banks).
Simultaneous CV IN control for pitch 1 & 2: You can now control both oscillators with just one CV source.
New Trigger delay setting: for all the Gate and CV sources that change the CV after rising the gate, we have added a configurable trigger delay, so once the trigger is received we wait x ms to read the CV. Screen saver: We added a new adjustable screen and energy saver following user requests. Now it's possible to randomize a slots or banks via CV IN trigger. Added CV in control for Retrigger time and Slope type. Improved SLOT buttons behavior in MUTE, now we show both muted slots and playing slots (with a more intense light) Bug fixes:
Fixed a bug where the HPF noise fader CV value was not being sent when it was assigned as an output. Fixed a bug where the slope parameter was not responding well to random values. CV in 'Morph to' bug fixed Fixed a bug where the morph destination was no correctly reset after removing the cable from the cv input. CV 6 input was not working with CV BANK Change. Other minor bugs fixed.
