Prophet Rev2 / Re: What velocity curve do you use? and What aftertouch curve?
« Last post by creativespiral on April 14, 2024, 08:52:29 AM »Just got the rev 2 as my first poly synth. I love it
Congrats! It's an amazing sounding synth with tons of depth and versatility!
I've gone back and forth with the curves a few times, but have settled on "Curve 4" for both... provides great overall playing dynamics and I really like the feel of digging in with aftertouch... especially for playing expressive leads with pressure mapped to vibrato.
I'll try it out. Does it go from least sensitive to most sensitive?
There's some more technical information about the differences of the curves here:

Prophet-5/Prophet-10 / Did I really want this to sound like a piano??? Ouch!
« Last post by Richo on April 14, 2024, 04:29:07 AM »This thing is the King. Long live the King. I love this patch so much I'm not sure what else if anything to add! (but i guess i have to add something haha) And the aftertouch... omg the aftertouch! 
Thought I would share and would love to hear wot other cats are doing with their p10. (or p5)

Prophet-5/Prophet-10 / Re: Firmware [Main OS 2.0.4 / Panel OS 1.1.3]: Feedback
« Last post by Quatschmacher on April 13, 2024, 02:52:34 PM »Here's a miniscule discrepancy I found in 2.0.4 / 1.1.4
First, I love the feature where when you change a panel control, a dot appears in the display when you hit the value saved in the patch.
This does not seem to be implemented for the upper right Velocity and Aftertouch buttons.
I did not check this before update so I can't say if it is new or not.
Thanks,

I think that’s one I reported a while ago, and if I recall correctly, the balance setting is also not shown, at least not in one of the layers.

Prophet-5/Prophet-10 / Re: Voice allocation (round robin vs P5)
« Last post by Chrutil on April 13, 2024, 11:58:20 AM »I found the biggest reason to do this is the addition of velocity sensitivity in Rev 4.
When velocity is active to open the filter and you have a long release (like patch 111) and play repeated notes of the same key - first fast then slow - then with the P5 mode the second 'muted' note will cut off the first brighter one.
This was quite jarring for me first time I played the Rev 4, but luckily the fine folks at Sequential gave us both options.

OB-X8 / Re: Poly After Touch and OB-X8
« Last post by the8bitdeity on April 13, 2024, 09:09:59 AM »In general all of the aftertouch implementations on Sequential synths have a generic "Aftertouch" amount and it will use Channel or Poly based on what the controlling keyboard sends. That's just kind of how they've done it for a long time and I don't expect it to change. Probably easier to change what type of AT your controller is sending.

Prophet-5/Prophet-10 / Re: Poly Aftertouch and P5/10 rev 4
« Last post by g3o2 on April 13, 2024, 05:51:40 AM »I agree that you do not need polyAT for every sound, especially because P5/10 can only route it per voice to cut-off frequency. Plus, polyphonic expression if it is meant to be controlled (vs randomly applied) reduces the number of meaningful fingers per hand to 1-2.
What you could do is get a more compact controller, such as the Linnstrument 128, and use that one to control any notes you would like to have polyAT, while using your regular keys for anything else. Because you’d apply it to specific notes, the isomorphic non-piano layout will not be a problem. Despite its small physical range for (poly)aftertouch, the control thereof is pretty good imo.
In case you used it to control a keyless sound source, add in a MIDI merger to merge the MIDI input coming in from both controllers. Linnstrument is compatible with a wide range of MIDI sound sources and MIDI modes (except 2.0). With MPE you will have polyphonic sliding of up to 96 semitones as an additional expressive option - as well as Yabs and Yrel. For the P5/10 you would only have monophonic pitch sliding limited to the maximum pitch bend range of the Prophet, which can still be nice to have.
LS is not cheap but I personally find it entirely worth it, it’s a very robust design: https://www.rogerlinndesign.com/support/support-linnstrument
