San Francisco, CA – [July, 26th, 2025] – Sequential is proud to celebrate the 10-year anniversary of the Prophet-6, a modern analog synthesizer that has become a staple in studios and on stages around the world. Launched in 2015, the design of the Prophet-6 was led by Sequential founder Dave Smith as a tribute to the iconic Prophet-5, but with a contemporary twist that has captivated world-class musicians and producers ranging from Trent Reznor to Taylor Swift.
Although it builds on the deep heritage of the iconic Prophet-5, Prophet-6 represents a new era of Sequential synthesis. With its 100% analog signal path, discrete-component voltage-controlled oscillators, filters, and amplifiers, the Prophet-6 delivers the warm, punchy sound that has come to define Sequential’s ongoing legacy. And with onboard digital effects and modern stability, Prophet-6 now goes where the vintage models could only dream.
Dave Smith’s intention with the Prophet-6 was to bridge the gap between classic and contemporary synthesis. The result is a synthesizer that is both timeless and forward-thinking. The Prophet-6 has proven itself as today’s analog standard, fulfilling its designers’ vision and exceeding all expectations.
Over the past decade, Prophet-6 has garnered widespread acclaim from reviewers, artists, and satisfied customers alike. Sound On Sound praised it saying, “It looks and sounds beautiful”, while Matt Johnson of Jamiroquai shared his strong feelings for Prophet-6, stating, “I’ve fallen in love with it again.” Many owners have echoed these sentiments, calling it an “absolute beast”, “the best sounding analogue polysynth I’ve ever heard,” and “second to none.”
As we celebrate its 10th anniversary, Sequential is proud that Prophet-6 continues to be a beloved instrument among artists and synth enthusiasts around the world. It has proven itself to be a cornerstone of modern music production, and we look forward to the Prophet-6 continuing to inspire new generations of musicians and producers.
