Videos
• Introduction & Overview (02:37) - Tyler begins by giving you a look at the broad aspects and nature of the Arturia Prophet V, as well as a bit of history before digging further into this recreation of Sequential Circuits' classic synthesizers.
• The User Interface & Basic Operation (06:04) - In this video, we take a look at the main interface and general layout of the Prophet V so you have a good idea of its workflow when we get into more specific topics later in the course.
• The Prophet 5 (13:05) - Here, we look at the first and more traditional section of the Prophet V, the faithful emulation of the Prophet 5. This instrument employed subtractive synthesis, which is common among analog modeled synthesizers, but this instrument was a classic for a reason... learn why!
• The Prophet VS Pt. 1 (10:13) - Now we'll move into the Prophet VS section, which is almost as if we're traveling to an entirely different instrument. The Prophet VS employs digital Wavetable or Vector Synthesis to create its sound, which gives us a different outlook and many more opportunities with a new set of options to work in.
• The Prophet VS Pt. 2 (05:41) - Here we continue through the Prophet VS, and finish up with an in-depth look at the modulations and audio/effects tabs.
• Prophet Hybrid (07:06) - The Prophet V allows you to put to use both the 5 and VS versions to create a Hybrid mode, which gives you the flexibility to take features from either and even combine them to make exciting new sounds.
• Preset Management & the Browser (07:09) - Here, we explore the Prophet V's browser and its wide selection of awesome sounds included by Arturia. Then, we learn how to add our own presets and get them organized for future use.
• Prophet V Sound Design Techniques (09:41) - In this video, we put the many controls we've been through into action by implementing a number of sound design principles to visualize the sound and see how we can edit and use it.
• Sound Design: Bass (06:43) - Learn how to make a fat bass sound that uses the Prophet V's digital and analog modeled features.
• Sound Design: Lead (06:25) - Now discover how to create some lead sounds that make use of the Prophet V's numerous features.
• Sound Design: Pad (10:06) - In this video, you'll learn how to design an evolving pad sound perfect for pad duty.
• Review & Conclusion (02:29) - Now that you've covered the technical aspects of the Prophet V and creatively implemented that knowledge with some sound design examples, Tyler sums things up with a quick recap and a few comments to get you on your way to making great sounds with these virtual recreations of classic instruments!
