    That first patch is SO reminiscent of Lyle Mays. The greatest of all time. Rest In Peace 🙏🏼

    Mellow AF. Just love the vibe... loosey-goosey modulation and all. Makes me wonder if any modern synths can get anywhere near this sound.

    we used to have a Harmonium in my aunt/grandma's side of the house, pedal activated, it's really mesmerizing when nobody hears you so you can sound stupid playing the harmonium, well i was 3 year old

    This might be like the only video on CZcams where someone ACTUALLY makes usable, musical and ultimately beautiful sounds with the Prophet 5.
    But not only that actually knows how to play. You will not believe how rare that is on CZcams.

    Truly exceptional combination of programming and playing. The first patch reminded me of the late Lyle Mays. Very inspirational and going to take this to my next session on my Prophet 08. 👍

    I really do not give this synthesizer the credit it deserves. I always understood how significant it was, being the first of its kind. by the time I first learned about it, I was already becoming attached to the six-note architecture of my JX-8p. Don’t ask me what has failed to tempt me about the Prophet 5 that *has* appealed to me about the Take 5 and TEO-5.

    this video has some of the most beautiful prophet 5 sounds that I heard. it also makes me doubt if the rev 4 is worth it. no chance it can sound as good. and I was very sorry to reach this conclusion. I listened to a lot of different demos of the rev 4 and the prophet 10, and they sound good for certain things but this is a different creature. this thing here sounds smooth, organic, "perfect", my ears do not complain at any moment. when I listen to demoes of the prophet 5 rev 4 it often sounds harsh, metallic, not as smooth and perfect. it has this "to your face", clear and big sound, and the bottom end is very warm but again this instrument here is in another league. thanks for uploading

    Many sounds I like but there are some of this Prophet sounds I don't like. I never get the hype about this synth and the new Prophet 5 Rev4 (I own a Prophet Rev2).

    • @RayyMusik
      @RayyMusik Před 3 lety +2

      I also have a P08 Rev2, and it was my most-used synth for years. But except for the no. of voices and mod slots, the P5/10 blows it out of the water. Open your ears!

    The patch starting at 4:11 - were my eyes deceiving me or did you use the mod wheel to detune the oscillators by turning the LFO waveform off?
