Korg Prophecy ... Holy Forksticks!!!

[avasopht]

Had this since launch and had used it here and there ...


But today I finally realized what all the fuss was about ...


Oh ... my ... goddddddd ...

Can this thing beef up a track!

It slides right up in there and gives me a faaat bass while raining heavy across the whole spectrum.

Neighbours must think I've kidnapped Timbaland or something!!!

Just a heads up that this just received an update

Version 1.1.0

• [PC/Mac] VST3 format support.
• [Mac] Native Apple Silicon support.
• [PC/Mac] The sound engine has been improved to more closely resemble the original hardware.

I thought it was pretty damn spot on before, but I can tell the difference with the latest improvement. It has been many years since I played my hardware Prophecy.

The wind instruments in particular seem to play better now IMO.

KORG Collection - Prophecy, a legendary physical modeling synthesizer developed with the aim of offering freedom of expression beyond analog synthesizers and unprecedented sound creation possibilities, has evolved even further in its expressive capabilities. In version 1.5, the quirks of the hardware Prophecy can now be expressed even more precisely thanks to deeper creative input from the brilliant minds in the original Prophecy development team.

Version 1.5 also adds 180 new programs. This unique sound collection brings out the individuality of the Prophecy, ranging from fresh, software-only sounds to those that pay homage to the original Prophecy and pushes monophonic sound design to all new levels. Please enjoy the new programs created with the participation of the original Prophecy sound designers.

These new patches are really good! And there's so many of them! A lot of excellent polyphonic ones in there. And the further engine refinement...
