Ever since Sequential brought back the legendary Pro-One spirit, this Special Edition takes it further with a tiltable control panel that lets you dial in at the perfect angle, plus those gorgeous walnut wood side panels that make it feel like a studio heirloom.
At its core, it's a hybrid powerhouse with two warm analog VCOs, one digital wavetable oscillator offering 32 tables of 16 waves each for morphing textures, a noise generator, and sub oscillator. Switch between three killer analog filters—a Prophet-6 lowpass, OB-6 state-variable multimode, and Moog-inspired ladder—for endless tonal flavors, all shaped by four loopable ADSR envelopes, three syncable LFOs, and a 32-slot mod matrix with 171 destinations. The 16-track, 16-step sequencer with four phrases handles ratcheting, real-time/step input, and parameter automation in monophonic or 3-voice paraphonic mode, while dual digital effects like delay, reverb, chorus, and phaser join analog distortion and tuned feedback for grit. Hands-on control comes via a 37-note semi-weighted Fatar keyboard with velocity and aftertouch, backlit pitch/mod wheels, a position-sensitive touch slider, advanced arpeggiator, and full CV/Gate I/O for modular integration—all in a compact 26.5" x 13" x 3.5" frame weighing just 16 lbs.
Players love how it nails everything from fat basses to searing leads and experimental sequences, with the sequencer often called a game-changer for live performance. A few note the paraphonic limit keeps it focused rather than sprawling, which suits its monosynth roots perfectly.
