Common Arturia Prophet-5 V Analog Synthesizer Software Instrument Questions
How do I configure my MIDI controller to control parameters in the Arturia Prophet-5 V?
First, ensure your MIDI controller is recognized by your DAW. Then, in the Prophet-5 V's settings panel (accessible via the wrench icon), map MIDI CCs to specific parameters using the MIDI Learn function – right-click on the parameter you want to control and select 'MIDI Learn'.
Where are the presets saved for the Arturia Prophet-5 V, and how can I back them up or share them?
Presets are stored within the Arturia V Collection directory in your documents folder or your operating system's equivalent. To back up or share, copy the relevant preset files from this location.
How do I use the 'Vintage Knob' feature on the Prophet-5 V, and what does it actually do?
The 'Vintage Knob', located in the top panel, introduces subtle variations and imperfections to emulate the behavior of vintage Prophet-5 synthesizers; turning it clockwise increases these random parameter drifts and component variations.
Why is my Prophet-5 V plugin producing no sound, even though MIDI notes are being received?
Check that the 'Volume' knob is turned up and that the 'Tune' knob is not extremely detuned; also, ensure that the VCA is properly configured (e.g., a sustained note might need an active envelope).
What is the 'Unison' mode on the Prophet-5 V, and how does it differ from the original hardware?
The 'Unison' mode stacks multiple voices for a thicker, more powerful sound; unlike the original hardware, the Arturia Prophet-5 V allows you to adjust the number of voices in unison (up to 8), and often features detune/spread parameters to widen the sound field.
