After owning both the Sequential Prophet 6 and the Prophet Rev2 for quite a while, I decided to answer a question I've gotten quite a few times: "why do you have two Dave Smith Polysynths?" I'm sure no one will have strong opinions about which synth they prefer....
0:00 - The Prophet 6 infatuation
1:15 - A new contender emerges?
3:36 - The Rev2 and why it's awesome
6:14 - The Prophet 6 sounds incredible
7:26 - Wonderful limitations
8:19 - Making space for massive synths
9:48 - Summary

They both complement each other perfectly. It's less a question of one over the other, than rather a question of... money, I guess 😂. Btw. there is another great trick that the Rev2 has up its sleeves, especially the 16 voice version. You can turn it into an 8 voice binaural synth, just like the UDO Super 6, but with 2 more voices. Just use the same patch on both layers and dial in some subtle changes using LFO modulations. Now pan one layer left and the other right! It sounds unvelievably wide!

Just discovered your channel with this video and it's awesome. The immersive synths in the background (that are the ones that are tested so putting them in the background really puts them in a concrete musical situation, super smart), nice touch of humor, clarified and non biased/manichean point of view with a lot of details without being too heavy. Great job please keep going 🎹🎹🎹

One thing about the REV2 is that you can set it up to be binaural by setting the mod source for Layer A to DC -127 (Left) to Fixed Pan, set Layer B DC source 127 (Right) to Fixed Pan and then slightly vary one layer from another and get some cool stereo effects. Thanks to Peter Dyer who did a tutorial on this. You can also manipulate both layers at the same time per knob.

The Rev-2 and the Prophet 08 is a synth that I love so much, this synth is special to me since I figured out that it appears on many of my favorites albums from many artists from different genres, Deadmau5 used one on his early albums and this synth is prominent on the album Amok from Atoms for peace's Tom Yorke project and has a distinctive tone, even if it has received critics from the fact that it has DCOs instead of VCOs, I think it's part of its sound.☕🎹🌲🌲🌲

I actually compared both a lot and in the end went for Rev 2 as well. P6 is a nice synth but imo it just sounds a bit different, not better and the price difference and fewer possibilities didn't make it worth it to me.
@hubbarjs
@hubbarjs 2 года назад
I've got both as well and agree with a lot of what you're saying. Got the Rev2 first, absolutely loved it so much I got the P6. The Rev2 is great for mods - you can almost get eurorack type modulations going. It's also multi-timbral, so I've enjoyed playing it with my live band when I need an extra synth. BUT, the P6 is just on a different level for sound (VCOs). Also, I have found that I really like a simple, no menu diving synth. As great as the Rev2 is, I'm considering selling it. I don't think I'll ever sell the P6.

I own both Prophet 10 and REV2, as well as OB6. It was a hard choice between OB 6 and P6, but in the end I liked the filter on the OB6 better. That said, REV 2 was no brainer, as I had P8 at one point and loved it. And even now, REV2 is complementing P10 very well. If P5/10 was never re-issued, I would probably get P6 too. and YES modulating cutoff with noise is my favourite thing to do too.

On the Rev-2 : Its not globa sync, but if you need a rythmic poly lfo. you can get all the LFOs in sync: activte key sync. play all the voices at the same time, deactivate key sync. now the lfos are in sync and you can create a rythmical swell. not perfect but can work sometimes.
@JairoElomina

You can easily play all voices at the same time by setting "Unison Mode" to 16 Voices, turning on unison, play one note and then turn off unison.

I have watched this video a dozen of times. It's very nicely done. Like you, the Prophet 6 has grabbed my attention, but it's out of budget for now. I keep going back and forth, because I could sell my watch, and I'd be able to get both the Prophet 6 and the Rev-2, but unfortunately here in Denmark, we don't really have big stores for buying instruments anymore. I can't go and try one or see it in a store, so I can only experience it through RU-vid. Anyway, keep making these kind of videos! I enjoy the splash of comedy but also the technical aspect and the fact, that you really know, what you're talking about! For now I'm keeping the watch, but it's really tempting to just sell the damn thing!

I became a Sequential Circuits fan back in the early 90s when I bought a Prophet 600 for $200. It was my first polysynth. I bought the Rev2 in 2016. The Rev2 is light years ahead of the Prophet 600. The sound of the 600 is very pure because there are no onboard effects. Otherwise the 600 sound is in no way superior to the Rev2. I know young musicians have a reverence for the older gear, but I prefer the advanced capabilities of modern analog synths.
@StarfieldBound
@StarfieldBound 2 года назад
I also have both a Prophet 6 and a REV 2 and I agree with everything that was said in this video. I would add this. Both synths have a *premium* fidelity to their sound - slightly moreso on the Prophet 6 likely due to its *voltage* controlled circuit design. The lowpass filter on the P6 sounds delicious. The high pass filter a bit boring but can easily be used to fit your patch into-the-mix. The P6 shines with patches that have a lot of dynamics especially when there is subtle sprinkling of *secret sauce* from the *poly mod* . The P6 has fewer parameters but has an extraordinary wide sweet spot - meaning no matter what you do, any adjustment makes sounds great. The REV2 w/16 voices is nothing like anything else on the market. 2 deeply programmable layers with modulatable DSP effects, a *premium* sound full of animation and dynamics. The REV2 is what I call a *programmer's* synth, a synth for *sound design* and a *problem solver* . There are so many well implemented designs on this synth for sound creation and despite its deep programmability its very easy to dig in. If the generous amount of modulations and *mod matrix* can't get you there, the modulation sequencer (gated sequencer) will.

Great video and I do absolutely agree with you. You need both! OK, for me it is the Rev2 and a Trigon-6, but the motivation is the same. I love the Rev2 for being a great companion in nearly all tracks. However there is one thing I don't like about the Rev2 and that is the way you chose your patches. Where the Prophet-6 (or Trigon-6) gives you direct access to the programs, with the Rev2 you have to cycle through banks and programs. A bit annoying. Even with this, I will not easily sell my Rev2. It just is too good.
@crazzylee
@crazzylee Год назад
I think you have it right about the Rev2 it’s more like a choir and the P6 is a lead singer. I think the sound dominance is done by design focusing voltage to one oscillator with the P6. I have a Rev2 and I intend on getting a moog for that same reason you got the P6. I hear your Rev2 is no more which is a decision to each their own. I don’t think I would have.

The Rev 2 has been my workhorse synth for 4 years, and I still love it. Sure, my GAS keeps murmuring “Get the P6, too!“, but I won‘t. Sure, the P6 sounds more similar to the unaffordable P5/10, but you can circumvent some of the Rev 2‘s drawbacks: 1. DCOs: It‘s tedious and eats up some mod slots, but you can simulate that vintage behaviour by voice component modelling (see Creative Spiral‘s channel!). It makes it sound very similar to the P6. 2. Lack of bottom end: who says you should use a poly synth for bass lines? A mono synth will do perfectly.

Great vid, thanks for posting. That's a good way to put it - "heft" I've had a rev2 for a few years now, I love it for most things but I do find just missing something when you just want something simple and rich with a bit of "heft" - doesn't have that guttural "umph" Some VCO synths have. But conversely, it does everything besides that super super well. I got it at the time since a few years ago it was drastically cheaper than the p6. Weirdly now it's more or less a similar price where I am. (4199 aud vs 4500 aud, depending where you get it.) Maybe one day they'll make a Rev3 with the same heft, would like to just have one synth, not two.

for me its down to the p6 or the ob6. i think the p6 sounds darker, warmer, and creamier, and some how tighter envelopes. i can really hear this apparent with arps and plucks. maybe its just the way the sem filter responds to envelopes on the ob which also sounds amazing. fizzy, in your face, ike its a relic from the early mid 80's or a forgotten john carpenter movie...

@digital dirtbag I think they are pretty complementary. There is overlap but it's pretty easy to avoid and there seems to be plenty of sounds on each that the other can't do. The fizz on the OB6 SEM notch filter versus the insane things that are easily done with high resonance settings on the P6 for instance. Overall I find the P6 easier to program perhaps because the filters are separate.

Have you ever tried to quantify the "meat" of the P6 versus the R2? As in, dial up the same sound with both and see if there really is more meat available on the P6? I wonder if maybe the types of controls and layout sort of lend themselves towards the meatier sounds but if some trial and error can achieve the same result on the Rev 2. In any case, there's so much to unpack when comparing two synths. Even something like the knob layout can be significant. It's a paint brush, and we learn to use it.

P6 is a great synth but REV2 is a powerhouse IMHO! an example is ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-_FfJ9aVe0Ys.html ! I have REV2 16V and you can stack and pan across channels to give some amazing depth. Also Creative Spiral has some videos on using the Sequencer to do Voice detuning to give the vintage sound.. (it seems nuts but is really amazing) Only thing I would say is REV2 onboard Fx are its weakest point. I have a TI2 and can run the REV2 through it and its got Amazing Effects so its a bit of a match made in heaven... best digital synth ever built IMHO with a bloody big Analog synth. Cheers!

considering selling my P6 for a Rev 2 lol, but then I have anm OB6 as well and feel thge P6/OB6 are a lot closer than an OB6/Rev2 will be. More voices and versatility, and greater spread.

@@paulmapp8306 I love OB6 its next on my list as it has probably the only unique sound I cannot do on REV2 or TI2 ! When you get P6 vs REV2 I ask can the P6 do this > ?ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-_FfJ9aVe0Ys.html

It's not about if p6 can do a rev2 sound. Function isn't the point, if it was we'd all be using digital with mod potential and massive polyphony. The dco on rev 2 and different filters just arnt as nice. If you need certain functions and p6 can't do those, then its not a synth to consider. If it does then rev2 doing more is irrelevant. The closest direct competitor to rev2 isn't p6, it's peak/summit. I went peak when I had that choice. I am now reconsidering swapping the peak for a rev2 (desktop) as that does have some downsides (like not responding to cc07 for external volume control) BUT as I have a lot of patches on peak I use live, I need to bring the Rev 2 in first (so I have the peak patches as reference, and can contionue to gig the Peak until the Rev2 is integrated) ... hence potentially letting the P6 go to fund it (and make space for it as that is tight) as I have that OB6 (and Pro3). So my post was not really about "which is better, the P6 or rev2" as it was "is the P6 redundant if I have the OB6 and need to raise capital". IF that makes sense.

I agree on 98% I have Rev 2 and pollybrute and the prophet 6 is the best sounding without effects … pollybrute to me sounds like a vst sorry 😢 Make a patch turn off effects vst sounding ..But…. The pollybrute can express more with ribbon etc.. just subbed 🖐

Yeah, I just can’t love the Polybrute (or Matrixbrute) sound … though the laid out, push-button mod matrices/grids are very cool …
