A Three Generation Legacy: Pro 3
The Sequential Pro 1 and Pro 2 monosynths achieved near-legendary status in their day. So it was only natural that we built on their strengths with an even more worthy successor. Step into the Pro 3, Sequential’s 2-VCO+ wavetable mono/paraphonic synth – setting a new benchmark for raw sonic power and unparalleled versatility.
The power of 3
The Pro 3 features three oscillators, three vintage filters, three LFOs, four loopable envelopes, a massive 32-slot mod matrix, and a 16 x 16 x 4 sequencer. Add dual digital effects and four control voltage ins and outs, and you’ve got a hugely powerful instrument that’s as exciting to program as it is to play.
A classic next-generation
The Pro 3 is a hybrid of solid, old-school analog synthesis combined with versatile digital technology. Its two voltage-controlled oscillators provide warmth and presence, while its third wavetable oscillator provides digital edge and grit. With 32 tables of 16 waves each and wave morphing, the tonal possibilities are vast. Tuned feedback with grunge and analog distortion provides industrial nausea on demand.
Three filters based on vintage designs
At the heart of the Pro 3’s ballsy sound are its vintage-style filters. Filter 1 is a 4-pole low-pass design based on the Prophet-6 filter. Filter 2 is a classic transistor ladder filter with optional resonance compensation to maintain its low-end punch. Filter 3 is a classic, two-pole, state-variable design based on the OB-6 filter that can be continuously varied between low-pass, notch, and high-pass, with an optional band-pass mode. An additional Drive control adds even more punch when you really want to get down and dirty.
Expressive tools
Possibly the sequential Pro 3’s most powerful tool is the sequencer. With 16 tracks, 16 steps and 4 phrases, it features realtime and step input, rattle, variable gate and sequence lengths, multiple playback modes and paraphonic control. It also synchronizes with MIDI clock and external audio input, and input/output control voltages. In addition to notes, sequence tracks can control any parameter in the 171 destination modulation matrix.
Rather a prophet 5 that is also possible
