Prophet-10 Polyphonic Analog Desktop Module

DesktopAnalogPolyphonic

Reviving the legendary Prophet-10 design from the late '70s, this desktop module packs 10 voices of pure analog power into a compact, roadworthy steel chassis with elegant walnut trim—perfect for studio racks or your desk without the bulk of a keyboard.

Each of its 10 voices boasts two authentic Curtis 3340 VCOs delivering sawtooth, triangle, and PWM pulse waves, with Oscillator B doubling as a sub-audio LFO for extra modulation depth. Hard sync between oscillators creates those signature throaty sweeps, while the switchable 2140 or CEM3320 ladder filters—emulating Rev1/Rev2 or Rev3—offer versatile low-pass resonance that self-oscillates beautifully. Knob-per-function panel gives immediate access to dual ADSR envelopes, Poly Mod routing (Osc B and Filter Env to Osc A freq/PWM/filter cutoff), global LFO with triangle/saw/ramp/random waves, and enhanced Unison with detunable voice stacking up to 10 or chord memory. Stack or split modes let you layer or zone two patches bi-timbrally, with CV/gate I/O, stereo outs, headphone jack, and 200 factory/200 user presets for instant recall. Vintage knob tweaks authentic '70s character on demand.

Players love its fat, organic tones that nail everything from lush pads to ripping leads, praising the intuitive programming and rock-solid tuning—though some note the desktop form misses a built-in keybed for live play.
