Audio Rate Modulation on a Prophet 6 Analog Synth

Catch the full episode with Marcus Wiles:
EP #106: Prophet 6 Hardware Synth Rig with Marcus Wiles #prophet6 #worshipkeys
video upload by The Worship Keys
"This episode focuses on synthesizers with a deep dive on Marcus Wiles’ Sequential Prophet-6, while also thanking sponsor Aerospace Audio and highlighting their Arrow Pads app and Atmosphere Pads pedal features, sound packs, pricing, and routing ideas with Ableton. Marcus explains why he chose the Prophet-6, how its simplicity and poly mod section shaped his synth programming, and why hardware can feel more like an instrument. He demonstrates practical sound-design concepts that translate to any synth or Omni sphere, including using unison and stereo spread versus chorus, preparing patches for mono or stereo systems, shaping sounds with envelopes to turn a basic patch into bass, plucks, brass, and an 808-style sound, adding texture with audio-rate modulation and effects (including distortion after reverb), and using the Prophet-6 sequencer for writing inspiration. The episode ends with a call for viewers to submit their own key rigs and a teaser for the next episode on the Nord Stage 4."

"Another very nice-looking instrument which has obviously sat around for many years not being used.
Brief report: Looked to power up OK but a very noisy cooling fan. Display showed correctly and it made sounds, albeit random noises so the presets seem corrupted.
Turned it off an on again and it went through the autotune OK but turned it off again as I didn't want it to overheat.
Turned it on a third time but no lights, nothing. I removed the mains but the mains input pins on the Memorymoog seem loose."

"Roland Juno-106 in excellent cosmetic and working condition. The chassis is almost immaculate, with hardly any visible scratches, making this a very clean example of an increasingly sought-after classic. It has also been recently serviced, so you can buy with confidence knowing that everything works exactly as it should. The synth has been thoroughly cleaned and is ready to be plugged in and enjoyed right away. A fantastic opportunity to own one of the most iconic analog polysynths ever made — perfect for collectors, studios, and musicians looking for that unmistakable Juno sound."

"The Roland SH-5 is possibly the most feature rich vintage mono synth ever made by the legendary Japanese company. With 2 LFO's, 2 VCO's, 1 variable state VCF, 1 bandpass filter, 2 Envelopes, 1 VCA, S&H, Ring Mod and a simple but powerful switch matrix for routing modulation this synth is more than capable of making some of the most incredible tones and textures you can imagine!
Made in the late 1970's 'green face' Roland era, when their synths had a certain magic sound that is hard to describe. Fizzling and alive with electricity!
A handful of patch points on the back give you access to all the essential controls via CV so that this can play along nicely with a modern set-up.
This particular SH-5 has just been fully serviced in our Synthesizer Rejuvenation and Wellness Centre and comes with a 90 day warranty of good health. Original lid included."
