Omnisphere 3 Hardware Guide

Sequential Prophet 12

The Sequential Prophet 12 is a deep synth and great for power users. From its panel, you can control Omnisphere’s Wavetables, FM, Ring Mod, and Waveshaper independently for each Layer. It has four LFOs and an interesting Character section that allows you to do Bit-crushing and Sample-Rate-Reduction. It also has a very capable Modulation Matrix, and touch sliders that can be assigned to modulate many parameters in Omnisphere. The Sequential Prophet 12 is great for people who program their own Omnisphere sounds and are looking for a unique vibe.
