Synths | History of the Prophet Synthesizer (1978)

The History of the Prophet Synthesizer

One of the most interesting stories of the synth world is that of Dave Smith and Sequential Circuits. I decided to try to tell some of it via their flagship series, from the Prophet 5 in 1978 to the Prophet X in 2018. With the help of a dozen other people who were incredibly generous and equally excited by their instruments, this film is the result: The History of the Prophet Synthesizer.


Massive and heart-felt thanks to all of these awesome Prophet people, this film would be very short without you!
