“I’m selling this Prophet 2000 synth as-is since it has an output issue. I haven’t dove deep into this synth but bought it used last year & each feature I messed with did work, including the disk drive & sampling. But when using factory sounds, either headphones or external speakers, it will play two notes panned hard left, then two hard right, then two left, and so on. Also the first note on the right is a bit buzzy each time. If I load a sample disk, it will do this ping pong panned output issue rotating with 4 notes each side. So no stereo output. At least this is what it was doing when I used it last week to prepare it for auction. I looked for this issue online and found one mention of this problem, but if you work on synths, perhaps this is the auction for you. Maybe it’s an easy fix for someone who knows what they are doing. It comes with the power cable and a stack of disks, half of which successfully loaded & half that either weren’t recognized or had some loading issue, so those could be considered blanks I suppose. The picture with the disks spread out is the stack that loaded properly. Nothing fancy, just a lot of basic sounds, the real magic is sampling your own stuff anyways. Physically, it’s a tank and just has a bit of scuffing & some white marks here & there. Keys are all solid and all work as well as buttons & knobs.” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“Dave Smith’s legendary sampler from 1985. It’s 12bit with variable sampling rates to get the warm, grainy sounds that machines from this era are famous for. It also has the same analogue filters as the Prophet 5.
It’s in near mint condition and has the optional memory upgrade installed as well as the latest 4.3B firmware. It also has a HxC emulator in place of the original floppy drive.I can deliver for the cost of petrol if you’re reasonably close to where I live, or you are welcome to collect. It’s a really heavy machine thanks to the steel case, so shipping would be expensive.” Click here to visit listing on eBay

In reasonable condition, just a minor few marks here and there as shown in the pics. The floppy drive MAY not be working correctly…I only have two discs to try to load from and the load command does signal a movement to the drive but doesn’t seem to achieve a successful load…so today I’ve just been testing with the 12 ROM sounds. The touch sensitive panel seems to be fine…….Sample input NOT tested.” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“Here we have my Sequential Circuits Prophet 2000 which is sadly not in the greatest of health. I’ve owned it for over 10 years, done some gigs, lots of recording she’s served me well. A few months ago I powered it up after not using it for a while and the display showed no power. Flicked it off and back on again and it powered up but no sound. Every other function works. You can select and load sounds, arp works and will control other synths over midi keyboard likewise. With the volume cranked you can hear a click that should be the sound . The filter will even have effect on this click. It has the gotek floppy emulator which has always worked perfectly and has been in it a good 5 years which I retro fitted fairly neatly. It also comes with an original manual which is a binder type and is massively useful and as a bonus was signed by the man who wrote all the sequential manuals Stanley Jungleib. I also have a sound library of about 200 discs on memory card and about 20 odd floppy’s. I’ll be very sad to see it go but I just don’t have the time or resources to fix it and am in need of something functional to replace it with. Remember this is for repair or parts.” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“Hello and thanks for reading this listing for my truly beautiful 1985 Sequential Circuits Prophet 2000 sampler. I really do think this one of the best 12-bit samplers of the era due to the flexible multi-timbrality, build quality and that fantastic rich Curtis resonant filter (as used in many a classic analogue synthesizer, as I am sure you know).
This Prophet is near as damn it in PERFECT condition. Barely a mark on it. I have recently serviced it, and cleaned every key contact ensuring every velocity-sensitive key works and also does so over midi, controlling other modules as required.
The fantastic futurist membrane-buttoned panel works perfectly with every button and LED working as it should. What a great design it is. No crackles from the balance or volume potentiometers. When cleaning the unit I did take note of how easy it is to gain access – 6 screws and the lid flips up, and another 2 release the whole keyboard bed for straightforward cleaning. It’s even signed by a Sequential Circuits engineer inside the case.
Not only is it in amazing condition but this particular 2000 has a library of about 40 disks loaded onto SD Drive which is fitted into the drive bay. This frankly makes the unit far more usable and you can add more to your hearts content. Oberheims, DX7 presets, Hammond samples, Emu library sounds, Synclavier and Fairlight library sounds, even complete EMU SP12 and TR808 kits spread across multi-samples….they are all on here at your fingertips in their 12-bit glory. Truly amazing what you can do with only 256kb of RAM. You can still buy a 512kb upgrade online, but this one is as it came out of the factory and this is just how I like it. If you want to start using the sampler to double up each sample and work in stereo I would suggest investigating that upgrade – Personally I have always used it in mono mode which to my mind gives it the true sound for which it is famous. In either case you have options to expand should you wish.
Did I mention the fantastic sound of this sampler enough already? Pop it through a reverb and away you go…instant Faltermeyer, Jan Hammer, Art of Noise etc. It’s a really, really rich and evocative sound. With a half-decent sequencer and a little planning you could produce a whole track with this item.” Click here to search for synths on eBay

Lovely bit of kit that I no longer use.

“For sale by original owner, purchased 1986, serial #02241. Exterior condition: excellent; never left my studio – but diskette drive needs replaced (“Lh” locked head error msg, will not read disks). (There have been replacement drives on the market – also USB-based floppy emulators from companies like HxC and N-Drive that specifically support the Prophet 2000, but I have no experience with those.)
61-key velocity-sensitive keyboard (no aftertouch)
12-bit sampling at 42K, 32K, or 16K
512K sample memory (two banks of 256K)
8-voice polyphony
Great-sounding analog VCFs (with resonance) and VCAs
Samples can be mapped into 8 layers across keyboard
Loads samples via internal 3.5” diskette drive (or MIDI Sample Dump Standard, SDS, if you can find appropriate software)
Built-in arpeggiator
MIDI In/Out/Thru
Original footpedal & approximately 100 sample diskettes (3.5”) included. (Can’t guarantee that 100% of them will read, given their age and because I can’t load them with its current floppy drive – however, approximately 35 backup copies—smaller boxes in the photo—are also included.)
Spring for pitch-bend was replaced.
