Prophet Remote

KeyboardDigital

Imagine strapping on a lightweight keyboard controller back in 1982 and owning the stage like a synth-slinging rockstar—Sequential dreamed that up with this rare gem designed exclusively for the Prophet-5 and Prophet-10.

At just under 10 pounds, it features a slim 49-note (four-octave) keyboard perfect for mobility, connected via a 20-foot proprietary multiway cable to your main Prophet. Miniature pitch and mod wheels sit right in the ergonomic neck grip, alongside an aux wheel that routes to the synth's filter or amp CV inputs for real-time expression, while handy program and bank select switches let you switch patches on the fly without missing a beat. No onboard sound generation or memory here—it's a pure, focused controller that keeps all the Prophet's polyphonic magic at your fingertips.

Collectors cherish it today as a quirky piece of history, spotted in the hands of players like Geoff Downes of Asia, though its proprietary link means it's mostly a love letter to dedicated Prophet owners chasing that authentic vintage vibe.
