The Synth That Changed Everything

Few instruments carry the cultural weight of the Prophet-5.

Released by Sequential Circuits in 1978, Dave Smith's five-voice analogue synthesizer brought polyphony, patch memory and hands-on control together in a way that reshaped how musicians wrote, recorded and performed with synthesis.

Its status has only grown with time, the Prophet 5 remains a benchmark for analog tone, musical immediacy and instrument design: a synthesizer whose reputation extends far beyond its original era.

From Genesis to Radiohead, Madonna to Aphex Twin, the Prophet~5 sound has spanned genres and decades for its versatile and powerful sound.

Some synths don't just belong to moments; they create them.

The Prophet~5 was one of those synths, and its story now continues in software form.

The Official Prophet 5

For the first-ever official Prophet~5 plugin, Sequential has collaborated with GForce Software to honour the sound, feel and character of the original instrument in software.

It brings together Sequential’s place in the history of analog synthesis with GForce's long-standing experience in creating expressive, authentic virtual instruments.

Across the Rev1, Rev2, and Rev3 character models, the Prophet-5 plugin delivers the tone, response, and musicality that made the original instrument so sought-after, from the warmth of the SSM designs to the punch and presence of the Curtis filter. 

All of the original hardware functionality has been included, giving you access to the tones, behaviours and performance character that made the Prophet 5 a fixture on some of the greatest recordings of all time.

The original 38 factory presets from 1978 are included, alongside an extensive, professionally designed modern library of over 420 patches.

Original Spirit, New Expression

While staying true to the spirit of the original, Prophet-5 introduces powerful modern enhancements giving producers and sound designers new ways to shape movement, expression and performance.

At the heart of the expanded instrument is GForce's very own Newly Redesigned X-Modifiers section.

Almost every parameter has its own dedicated envelope and LFO, allowing sounds to move and evolve while preserving the immediacy and tone of the original hardware. 

Prophet 5 also includes two independent layers with Layer, Split and Alternate modes for combining sounds, dividing them across the keyboard or alternating between them as you play.

With an individual arpeggiator and chord mode for each layer, you can easily create stacked textures, keyboard splits and rhythmic contrast within a single instance.

For further control, comprehensive MIDI CC mapping and full MPE compatibility give compatible controllers access to detailed pitch, pressure and timbral expression.

To complete the experience, Prophet~5 includes a suite of premium studio effects, including chorus, phaser, multimode filtering, tremolo, compression, stereo delay and reverb, with extensive modulation possibilities throughout.

A synth that created moments is now ready to create new ones.

The Basics

iLok is a copy protection method used by many of our brands.

It has 3 types of activations, iLok USB, iLok Machine, and iLok Cloud.

Different brands/products will offer different iLok methods. iLok USB is always an option, but the availability of iLok Cloud and iLok Machine methods is at the discretion of the software developer.

iLok Account

For all iLok protected products, you will need an iLok account. You can create one for free here: ilok.com/#!registration

iLok License Manager

To manage your iLok licenses, there is a dedicated app called iLok License Manager. This app is used to register, activate, and move your licenses between locations.

You can download the latest installers from the iLok website: ilok.com/#!home

iLok USB Key

iLok USB

This activation is stored on an iLok 2 or 3 USB key.

It is the best option for portability, if you frequently move between multiple machines, and offline use.

iLok Machine ID

Machine ID

This activation is stored locally on your computer.

While this is a convenient way to work offline, and does not require the additional cost of an iLok USB, there is the risk of a license being lost in the case of a drive failure.

This option also requires extra care when you upgrade to a new computer, the license(s) must be deactivated on your old machine first to ensure you do not lose them.

iLok Cloud

iLok Cloud

This activation is based online, and requires a "cloud session" using the iLok License Manager.

It requires an active internet connection for the entire time you use the plugin(s).
