Sequential Prophet-6 / Output Level
« Last post by herr_dreier on Today at 02:36:48 AM »
Hello,
is there an output level switch in the globals of the Prophet 6 to reduce the level?

The background to this is that some (but not all) preset sounds override the input of the GFI Specular Tempus, which is connected directly to the stereo output of the Prophet.
I want to use the full control range of the Master Volume control and the GFI has no Input Level control. An output level switch like this would be a help.
Some vintage synths like Polysix or JX-8P have such a switch.

Alternatively, a -6 or -10db pad in the plug could be an option.

Any ideas for this?
Thanks in advance


addendum:
Calbritation was performed, but did not change the Problem

Prophet-5/Prophet-10 / Replacing alternative tunings, HOW?
« Last post by Mend on Today at 01:38:47 AM »
So how does one do that? The manual says it's possible and the file needs to be in sysex format, but it doesn't elaborate on how it's done. Can anyone chime in?

If any of you started experiencing these problems after updating to 1.8, that’s most likely the issue. It wrecked my unit till I downgraded. What it caused was:

1. Pitch problems nonstop, especially after warming up.

2. Hissy noise on notes 5 and 6, again, usually  after warming up.

3. Calibration hanging on 43, also after warming up. It would pass calibration if the unit was cool.

The fix is to email support and get a copy of 1.74 and reinstall it. Why a new OS would break certain units is beyond my knowledge but it clearly is happening. Hopefully they can make a newer update that works universally.

That is, if it even needs many updates at this point… Cheers.

Hi there. The 2.0.4 beta OS is stickied at the top of this P5/10 forum thread. It's here: https://forum.sequential.com/index.php/topic,4873.0.html

That was helpful. Thanks!!

OB-X8 / Re: Next firmware update?
« Last post by rpernett on Yesterday at 02:04:39 PM »

Some thoughts,
  • Unless I am missing something the modulation paddle is normally only effective in one direction. When the modulation paddle is pulled downward it proportionally engages modulation. It doesn't seem to have a function when pulled up.

    Can we give it a purpose? Perhaps in Page 2, give settings for what get changed and range. Options like filter modulation, filter amount, OSC2 pitch, macros?

    I would like the option for non-quantized oscillator pitch settings, combined with allowing for specific tuning chances to be save with the patch. When using cross modulation, the pitch can drift considerably. Essentially allowing for a patch that sounds great, but is hopelessly out of tune to be made usable.

    Split and Double modes could benefit from allowing a different base tuning for the constituent patches.

    I have one problem when I play... I run into the Transpose Up button causing a jarring change in pitch. A way to optionally lock them, or a mode requiring two click to engage the change would be helpful. Otherwise, I'm going to have to become a better player ;)

    I love my OBX8!

Sounds really cool.  Was hoping this update would drop before the long weekend.

That would have been nice, indeed. 

Another side of me kind of hopes they take their time to get it right and test thoroughly before they release it, as being a beta tester is time consuming too :)   As far as I know all of the Groove team have day jobs and do this in their spare time.  Pretty amazing what they've already accomplished!

Prophet Rev2 / How to copy "half" a preset onto another preset
« Last post by nubba111 on Yesterday at 11:19:15 AM »
Is there a way to copy the "A" part of a preset onto the "A" part of another preset? I can't figure it out!  Thanks in advance!

Hello, all -
Is this 2.0.4 OS a beta or an official release?  On Sequential's support area for the Prophet 5/10 there is only listed 2.0.1, nothing more recent.  Any clarifications much appreciated, as I am hesitant to update from 2.0.1.
Thank you.


As a new owner, THIS. A bit confused. Mine shipped with 2.0.0, so I went to the Sequential download page and updated to 2.0.1 (no change log found???), then I find out there's also a 2.0.4, but can't even find the download for it...

Have not seen this in the manual:

- While holding down Global and selet Program 5 (the global option buttons) there is an option that says 000 and can be set to + or - values. What is that?

- When then hit one more time it says Jup, what is that?

Global + 5 is for CV calibration - more details on Page 54 of the manual. It gets cal'd from the factory, so you generally shouldn't have to adjust these settings.

Enter cv cal mode   "Hold Global + 5
2) Prog 1 = CV out lo; 2 = CV out high; 3=CV in lo; 4= CV in high . Inc/Dec to change value
3) Hitting 5 does cv in auto cal
4) Hitting 8 exits cal mode, at any time"
