    This is the demo of most of the 100 patches included in the "The Voices of the Prophets", a library of sounds for the Behringer PRO-800 synthesizer. This library aims to reproduce the sounds that characterized the music performed with the Prophet serie, made by Sequential Circuit, such as the Prophet 5, Prophet 600, and Prophet T8 synthesizers.
    This library is available at
    www.dsp-quattro.com/dspquattr...
    The library comes with 3 versions: one to use if the PRO-800 runs a firmware version before 1.2.7, one to use if the PRO-800 runs the firmware version 1.2.7, one to use if the PRO-800 runs the firmware version 1.3.7 or newer.
    The patches:
    0:00 From P-00 to P-03
    1:30 From P-05 to P-09
    3:33 From P-10 to P-18
    5:46 From P-21 to P-29
    8:46 From P-30 to P-39
    11:52 From P-41 to P-49
    16:06 From P-50 to P-59
    21:26 From P-60 to P-66
    24:13 From P-70 to P-79
    28:12 From P-80 to P-87
    32:15 From P-90 to P-99
    Only a light reverb has been added to the recording. Used DSP-Quattro on MacOS.

      Like they said!... Hand are a story you can read, I'm 63, and love this sensitivity and expression in the gesture. One music instrument depends to hands who manipulates it, not only the theme or presets. That's where you can listen the real life of the instrument, far more than a technical machine. It's the third time I listen to this video and not the last. That's why I will have it over me Juno 6, with a CME UF 70, or my studiologic 88 midi, I feel the soul of this instrument, particularly with those called 'Presets', really the voice of the prophets, some so well known, others i discover here wich are hand to hand to my music. Love 🙏🧡💚👍👍👍

      YES!!! I like Nick's reviews at Sonic State to understand the architecture of the synth. I am a 35 year veteran of sound design, I have a good idea what a synth can do after Nick's review....but....without a demo from another UA-camr who can play, I only know half the story.

    Ah... Dang It!

I've honestly not heard a good musician play one until this video! Such good playing and the Pro-800 is delightful when played with touch and character... now I wanna get back on the wait list... ugh... thanks!

    Nothing beats a Prophet when it comes to mellow warm brass or string sounds. Sounds where the filter isn't opened up fully. I think it beats most Oberheims for these types of sounds (but the inverse for the more open sounds)! Same with the Roland Jupiter 8 which kind of also does more "open filter" sounds better.

    Your playing is beautiful. These are great, highly playable, highly usable patches. I'm hoping Behringer improves the Synthtribe application to allow for things like named presets (like the factory presets in bank A) and tweaking of features without menu diving. It's a great synth for the money and already two firmware updates since I've had it, so room to grow.

    The design of the Prophet 5 (and by extension Prophet 600 and now Pro 800) being so versatile despite the relative simplicity is on fine display here. Only a couple of missing niceties and the Zilog limitations are long gone. (Hopefully they will add an exponential option to filter envelope amount and kick up the voltage at both ends of the range) All else being equal a P10rev4 is definitely still the king of old school polysynths, but this is 1/11 the price...

    • @stefanodaino
      @stefanodaino  10 місяців тому +3

      The last firmware for the PRO800 allows very good and fast ENV curves. The PRO-800 has an excellent Features/Price ratio, but there are several minor and major things here and there that limit the PRO800 compared to the original Prophets. The most evident is that the POLY-MOD section is ok but not as you would expect. Accepting the velocity and aftertouch, it could be even considered a Prophet T-8 alternative, but unfortunately the Velocity to Filter ENV does not cover the full range, with the result that the PRO-800 always sounds more closed than expected. I hope that will improve this and other things on next releases of the firmware.
