General

Bet you didn't see this one coming! Sequential have re-released the Prophet 10 which, for the uninitiated, is basically a double Prophet 5 synthesizer from the 1980s. In total, the new P10 features ten voices with two oscillators each, plus a noise generator, a filter with ADSR and a master/volume ADSR. Both the original P5 and P10 are monstrous synths, not just in terms of potential, but in terms of support, which explains why they were so loved by producers and composers. Meanwhile, the Prophet 10 has become extremely rare and is virtually impossible to find. It remains an icon nonetheless, even if only due to the dual-keyboard design.

The Sequential Prophet 10

The new P10 isn't as bulky as its predecessor since both the original dual-keyboard design and the sequencer have been taken out. And who cares? Most sequencing happens on a computer these days anyway, but if you do prefer to work with an external hardware sequencer, you can hook one up via the MIDI and CV/gate ports. Under the hood, the only functional difference with the P5 comes down to the number of voices which, as we've already mentioned, have been doubled to 10.

Additional Features

The Prophet 10 comes equipped with an amazing touch-sensitive Fatar keyboard with aftertouch, and modern MIDI and USB-MIDI connections. Also, if you ever find yourself missing the sonic character of the filters that came with earlier revisions, you can switch the synth back to an older rev model, and there's a special Vintage control fitted to mix in some of that more unstable, old-school sound. While it is a beauty to behold, the Prophet 10 does come at a pretty crippling price that not everyone will be able to cough up. But if you do have the money to spare, you're getting a genuine piece of freshly revamped and improved music history in return!

Tuesday 15 September 2015

The rumour mill is back! It's time for speculation, and this time, it's about the new Roland Boutique! Roland has us going before with their sneak preview of the Aira machines, and that all turned out well. But now, let's sit back and enjoy some good old-fashioned guesswork!

Roland Presents Boutique Synthesizers

Thursday 1 October 2015

From a rumour to a leak, and from a leak to a formal announcement: Roland finally presents the Boutique Series! A few weeks ago, there was some speculation about the new Roland Boutique synthesizers.

Novation Circuit: What Is It Exactly?

Thursday 1 October 2015

Is it a controller? Is it a synthesizer? Is it a drum machine? No, it's the Novation Circuit! This new groovebox looks a lot like Novation's studio controllers, such as the Launchpad, but it's much more than that...

NAMM 2016: Korg Minilogue Analogue Synthesizer

Monday 11 January 2016

Another rumour is rapidly spreading throughout the synthesizer community! This time, the stories are about a new synth called the Korg Minilogue - a clever play on words, combining the terms 'mini' and 'analogue.' Both in looks and sound, this promises to be a great little synth!

NAMM 2016: Casio MZ-X: A New MZ-2000?

Monday 11 January 2016

The image below recently turned up on the internet. Based on the text and the accompanying specifications, we assume that Casio is trying to lure us to their NAMM booth so they can present their latest keyboard/synthesizer: the MZ-X. This will likely remind keyboard enthusiasts of the MZ-2000, an old Casio model that, considering the words 'Reinvented, Reimagined, Reborn' is apparently about to be brought back to life. Rumour has it that two models will be released, the MZ-500 and the MZ-1000, but take that with a grain of salt; it's very possible that MZ-X is indeed the final name for this workstation.

NAMM 2016: Back to the '80s with Electro Harmonix

Tuesday 12 January 2016

Late last year, Electro Harmonix introduced the Crash Pad Analog Drum Synth, and at NAMM 2016 they'll be unleashing the Super Space Drum. Where the Crash Pad creates electronic cymbal sounds, the Space Drum generates a typically '80s drum sound - electronic yet warm and full of character. It can be used as either a standalone unit, or in combination with a looper or clock generator, for instance.
