Fully multi purpose preamp while a twelve o'clock. There is a lamp in between but watch it only serves to warm up the sound. The preamp is fully digital. all classical effects are few and they affect some or APRS before the preamp. The compressor and wah Hush automatically before the preamp, reverb APRS. The others are assignable. Trs complte connection since there is a loop output for another multi-effects device, a tuner input, an instrument between the front and rear, classic midi in / thru, an output ster o mainout to attack an amplifier and an output Record STREO out for connection to mixer or direct recording.
In front was an adjustment of the level of input and output, a keyboard enable / disable the effects of a knob to select a preset and a large display screen. Good as I want to write a novel on the subject river I refer you to the doc that you can freely Tlcharger rocktron site.
The preamp has 4 modes Clean American, Texas blue, british vintage and mega drive. No need to draw a picture that is quite telling of what is derrire.
UTILIZATION
The device is relatively complex but it's still reasonable in view of the possibility of the gear notemment in terms of configuration and allocation of the effects before or APRS prampli. More confusing is the number of equalizer four in all. A comprehensive all presets that can not generally RULES once to calibrate the mood of the room, one at the same preamp with his classic bass, mid, and presence trebble c is the most intuitive, a pre and a post amplification. The ca becomes more complex. each of which can influence the rendering of the other. It gives endless opportunities casi Scult sound but frankly anything but intuitive. Therefore, we must be patient and test a lot of rglages before finding what tickles the ear. The cot of this doc does not help the masses. We can not fail to regret that there have no sound with presets that allow predfinies from a base and just a few paufiner rglages (that apparently corrected in version 2 just released and it's really not bad). Thus the Prophesy does not sound terrible by default and it takes time to get the best. To return the doc, it is not too bad when even well done that I know it is in English. AIM I find more travel tips that save time on rglages but it's still succinct on this point.
Finally it should be noted one of the strengths of its implementation is Prohesy impressive twelve o'clock rgler really allows all settings to MIDI and make this level of an ultra powerful and flexible.
SOUNDS
I play pop up the metal. So I wanted a super versatile aircraft. I plugged the prophesy of a power amp Marshall EL34 100/100 1922 and two speakers.
The sound is pretty harsh gnral which is typical of preamp Rocktron. those who know the grain of the valve such woodu gather this type of sound the same when Prophesy with a superior quality. The hush, a specially Rocktron makes their job really well and output was a sound breathless.
In fact you should mention the 4 preamp modes to qualify. Modes are clean crunch frankly trs trs good. It's clean and without smudges the net you will have no problem to find the nec plus ultra on this type of sound. For two modes for sounds more angry I am more skeptical. If one finds also a good quality sound EHJV by the absence of lamp preamp. It lacks warmth and grain of the typical lamp even if it is not far trs. It's still cold and a bit synthetic, I would say almost too clean. Therefore I think the Prophesy is not the best investment for the extreme metal but if it can satisfy all the rest. For me it is the weak point of Prophesy.
For Multi-party effects a single word is the quality. Particulirement modulation effects (chorus, flanger ...) amazing. Reverb also excellent. Wah wah automatically truer than true. Delay / Ducker .. it would be great if STREO silent. Why on a device of this price and quality that one finds such a gap? Incomprehensible and unforgivable as it exists on machines that are worth half of the prophesy.
What I also regret is that, although in theory one can prophesy the dconnecter the preamp and use it in between other, that they still color the sound and distorts the external preamp. It's not REALLY even more exploitable than the hush only works in the way of the internal preamp is initializing in this case. Is recovered so important a breath.
A final word on the simulation part, although the opportunities are less important as a device ddi POD with a wide pallette of sounds, there is no picture the result is out of proportion not play in ca the same way.
OVERALL OPINION
One word describes the Prophesy is quality effects. It is undoubtedly in the professional category. For the preamp section is not for me the best of the market but I understand that we can love and appreciation. What a shame that rocktron not made the effort to CRER preamp really a lamp and to delay STREO. La, t Prophesy would untouchable in this price range earn less than a ton of racks, each with a DDIS.
It has the advantage of being a while and do things seriously. The Prophesy remains a device that I find a bit expensive although the price is down lately.
The end hesitation APRS beacoup I sold mine a few months of use APRS as lamps aficionado I felt a bit by the camera on this point. But it's true that I am perpetually looking for the grail and I desespre one day get to the nirvana sound.
