Download the factory presets and load them into your Prophet-6 with whatever SysEx software you use: http://www.davesmithinstruments.com/prophet-6-factory-sounds/

Although, "The Prophet-6 contains a total of 1000 programs. 500 are permanent and 500 can be overwritten. Banks 0-4 are User Banks that can be overwrit- ten. Banks 5-9 are Factory Banks that are permanent. You can edit the programs of either bank, but you can only save them to Banks 0-4. As shipped from the factory, presets 000-499 are identical to 500-999."

That's not a contradiction. By factory sounds I meant banks 0-4. There's nothing you can change about banks 5-9, as these are set.

Hello Paul,

My factory presets (500 - 999) have disappeared. Do you know if there is a way to restore those in some kind of expert way? This has happened after the Prophet was opened, 1 voice card was taken out and the cable connection the bottom mainboard with the mainboard under the controls. These were disconnected and placed back again how they orginally were connected.

Cheers,
Rogier

I figured out that with the Soundtower P6 Editor you can override also banks 5-9 so I managed to restore my original factory presets to these banks :-)
