Frequently Asked Questions

The aftertouch is subtle but expressive, providing a gentle modulation – not as aggressive as some modern synths, but very musical for pads and evolving textures.
It’s fairly intuitive, but the LED display can be a little cramped for complex patterns; it’s best suited for pre-programming or simpler real-time adjustments.
It captures the essence of the Prophet-5 but with a more modern, refined character; the discrete architecture gives it a slightly different sonic signature, but maintains that classic Sequential warmth.
