Portable
With 44 full-size keys and a total width of just 26 inches, its form factor and control layout perfectly balance compact size with direct access to the most commonly used sound controls.
Powerful Synthesis
The five voices get their distinctive sound from a combination of two analog VCOs passing through a resonant 4-pole analog filter. The result is classic Sequential — smooth, warm, and weighty. Dual Digital effects ensure it can cover a wide range of sonic territory from vintage to modern.
The Perfect First Poly Synth
For customers wanting to get into analog poly synths but put off by price or complexity, it’s the perfect gateway to subtractive synthesis and the creative power of Sequential’s more advanced designs. Sequential sound and quality at a price within reach!
OSCILLATORS
- Two analog VCOs per voice
- Continuously variable wave shape (sine, sawtooth, variable-width pulse) per oscillator
- Hard sync: oscillator 1 syncs to oscillator 2
- Square wave sub-octave generator (oscillator 1) per voice
- Keyboard tracking on/off for each oscillator
- Front-panel FM (frequency modulation)
MIXER
- Oscillator 1 amount
- Oscillator 1 sub-octave amount
- Oscillator 2 amount
- White noise amount
LOW-PASS FILTER
- Four-pole, resonant, analog low-pass filter per voice, based on Prophet 5 Rev 4 design
- Filter can be driven into self-oscillation with the Resonance control
- Bi-polar filter envelope amount
ENVELOPES
- Two 5-stage envelope generators (ADSR + delay) with variable routing (filter, amplifier, gate)
- Velocity modulation of each envelope amount
- Envelopes freely assignable to multiple modulation destinations
LOW FREQUENCY OSCILLATOR
- Five wave shapes: triangle, sawtooth, reverse sawtooth, square, and random (sample and hold)
- Clock sync (internal or external MIDI clock)
- Freely assignable to multiple modulation destinations
DIGITAL EFFECTS
- One dedicated reverb with damping, pre-delay, decay and tone
- One multi-effect with stereo delay, BBD delay, tape delay, chorus, flanger, phaser, ring mod, vintage rotating speaker, distortion, high-pass filter
- Dedicated Overdrive effect
VINTAGE KNOB
- Recreates the characteristics of vintage synthesizers by introducing micro-fluctuations in oscillators, filter, and envelopes per voice.
AFTERTOUCH
- Source: channel (mono) aftertouch with bi-polar amount
- Aftertouch freely assignable to multiple modulation destinations
CLOCK
- Master clock with tap tempo
- BPM control and display
- MIDI clock sync
ARPEGGIATOR
- Up, down, up+down, random, assign modes
- Syncs to MIDI clock
- Re-latching arpeggiation
SEQUENCER
- Polyphonic step sequencer with up to 64 steps with ties and rests
PERFORMANCE CONTROLS
- Full-sized, semi-weighted, 3.5-octave premium Fatar keyboard with velocity and aftertouch
