Imagine... You’re looking at your computer screen and within two clicks you find exact recreations of two of the most influential analogue and digital synths existing in the 1980’s:
Then, with another click, you find a perfect fusion of both of these; an instrument giving you a remarkable spectrum of timbres ranging from the digital crystalline to the warmth of analog.
With the PROPHET V, you no longer have to imagine.
Arturia has taken the FIRST and LAST synthesizers created by Sequential Circuits and brought them to you in an easy to use software format. As with all other soft-synths created by Arturia, we bring you a replica of the Prophet 5 and VS both visually and sonically. Using the PROPHET V will be second nature for all you old-pros, and if you’re new to the synthesizers, the only thing you’ll miss by not having the hardware versions is the workout from transporting them to the studio. Since the PROPHET V is designed with Arturia’s TAE® technology, you can be sure you won’t give up sound quality.
There are three interfaces in the Prophet V: Prophet 5, Prophet VS, and Hybrid mode. The Prophet 5 and Prophet VS emulations have all the goodies of the originals (5 voice polyphony, white noise modulators, dynamic waveform crossfading with joystick, etc). You can even import any existing preset banks from the original synthesizers in a format called SysEx sound data. This data was one of the truly unique attributes of the original synthesizers because it allowed musicians to save their presets for one of the first times ever. With Arturia's Prophet V, we have respected this spirit by allowing you to use the presets you've already created in the original synthesizer while playing the synthesizer in its software counterpart.
The Hybrid mode is both synthesizers stacked one on top of the other offering you an entirely new world of possibilities.

Syncrosoft Protection
The Prophet V application is delivered with a USB key containing your Prophet V license and authorizes the software to function. To use the software on a different machine, simply install the software on that computer and then plug in the USB key. In this way, you can use this system key to install licenses of other Arturia products, or other products that use Syncrosoft technology, and carry the license from computer to computer as you wish.
In order to function correctly, the USB key driver must be already installed on your system. The installation program for the Syncrosoft License Control Center is available on CD-Rom and will be launched automatically when you install Prophet V.
Important Note:
Your license number, and thus the key on which it is installed, represents the true value of your software. To lose the USB key is to lose the use of the software on which the licenses are installed. Take special care of this USB key.
