Sequential Circuits Prophet 5 Rev 3.2

“Up for auction is a Sequential Circuits Prophet 5 – Rev 3.2 Analog Synthesizer, Original Model 1000 from San Jose, CA .

It is in great cosmetic shape, except for one or two scuffs on the backside of the synth and works 100%. It was last serviced approximately Ten years ago here in Los Angeles. The synth does need a new servicing, as there are a few scratchy pots when turning certain knobs as well as the occasion key, hence the lower starting bid price. I hate to get rid of this beauty of a Synth, but times have forced me to sell my favorite Synth sadly.

One of the first fully programmable polyphonic analog synths, the Prophet 5 is the most classic synthesizer of the eighties! It is capable of a delightful analog sound unique to Sequential’s Prophet series in which the P5 was King! Five voice polyphony – two oscillators per voice and a white noise generator. The analog filters, envelope and LFO all sound great and are extremely flexible. The P5 had patch memory storage as well, which scanned and memorized every knob setting for storing and recalling your sounds – a desperately needed feature at the time! If you know the power of this synth, then you know how amazing the sounds that can be made on this beauty.” Click here to visit listing on eBay

Sequential Circuits Prophet 5 Rev 2

“Rare Sequential Circuits Prophet-5 rev. 2 (with the SSM chips) from the late 1970s / early 1980s – the classic, vintage analog polyphonic synthesizer.

This model is one of the most sought-after vintage analog poly synthesizers on the market, which sounds noticeably better / fatter than the later revisions.

Professionally gone through by tech in February 2020, who replaced power supply and a few components that were not working properly, and brought it back up to full specs. Tested everything, including full synth & voice operation, all buttons / switches / keys , cv/gate and tape save/load, etc. all working perfectly.

Everything works great on it and of course it sound absolutely and incredibly marvelous.”

Sequential Circuits Prophet 5

” I have owned and loved this machine since 2015 when I purchased it in a specialist auction. I had Kenton add their midi retrofit to it which works perfectly. I have also had it serviced professionally in 2018.

If you are reading this then I assume you know how good these synths are. The rev 4 is good, but this is the original and there’s no beating that.

The synth is really beautiful looking with no blemishes or marks on the wood. It looks almost brand new. There is a small nick just above the logo, please see pictures. Importantly, there are no scratchy pots and the keyboard plays beautifully. It sounds stunning. Note that, although the digital display looks difficult to read in the photos, I think it just clocks slowly. It looks fine to human eyes!

Like all the earlier models, it does suffer from tuning issues and can take some time to settle down and tune well. It will take some time to warm up and may need to be auto-tuned several times. After it auto-tunes sometimes you still need to manually adjust the tuning pot for it to be spot on. I have also recently noticed that adjusting the cutoff can cause the tuning to go out if you have a lot of resonance dialled in. I spoke to my tech about this recently, and he suggested that it might need the pitch wheel replacing, so please bear in mind that it may need another service. It has also not had much use in the last 3 years hence the sale.”

Sequential Circuits Prophet 5 Rev 3.3

“Vintage Prophet 5 Rev 3.3 Flawless.

This is a beautifully preserved vintage Prophet 5 from a collector (me). It’s likely the best Prophet you’ll find available. It’s been in storage for two decades and will need a checkup for calibration etc. I’m including a brand new midi kit for installation from Kenton, which is IMO the best midi kit available. It’s working fine, however some of the key contacts will need cleaning, and at the same time it will need the usual maintenance such a new battery, calibration, etc.” Click here to visit listing on eBay

Sequential Circuits Prophet 5 Rev 3.3

“Prophet 5 V 3.3 synthesizer with original midi, original flight case, original bound manual, original bound service manual, in exceptionally good condition as per photos. The keyboard has been completely rebushed and all relevant capacitors replaced by Ben at Cyberwave EMS who is an expert in Prophets (he owns a Rev 2). Have you ever seen a P5 keyboard as even as that?! 🙂 It plays perfectly and as new. As you can see the condition is superb – the wood is beautiful and has one mark on the left hand edge as pointed out in the photos, which goes completely unnoticed in my studio. I’m a bit of a perfectionist with classic analogues (you can see a few, but the others, including my Jupiter 8 are also in top notch fettle) and I absolutely don’t notice the chip, which I considered having looked at by a French polisher, but haven’t as it just isn’t obvious in the studio. Ben knows this synth well as he has brought it up to top condition and serviced it for many more years of good service. I have had it dump its memory, but Ben has gone through it thoroughly and found nothing to be an issue and I had tape back ups. Speaking of the latter, I have all the original banks, but one of my own also in there at the moment which I can remove if you wish (but they’re good sounds!). Ben informs me that the Sequential factory midi can sometimes cause this if the buffer gets overloaded and his suggestion was that you could avoid using it, but I have anyway and it’s fine. Even better with CV. :). If you’re wondering why its so well priced for such a collector package, it’s because it’s priced to sell. I buy a lot of synths and know that the prices some people are waiting for is unrealistic . However, I’m not open to stupid offers and I’m not even convinced that I really want to let this one go, but I have the Pro One and my poly duties are waaaay covered by my other synths. Can you have too much Sequential? Probably not, but I’m not a collector and I use the Pro One more right now.” Click here to search for synths on eBay
