Arturia Prophet V - VST Plug-in Usage

ARTURIA – PROPHET V - MANUAL
110
To activate this function, select the <<Split>> option in the utility bar. Afterwards, you can
limit the keyboard zone by configuring the lowest note and the highest note corresponding to
the instrument.
Octave configuration
The octave parameter permits you to shift the response from your keyboard from one or several
octaves. This function is great if your keyboard doesn’t cover the octave in which you want to
play, or if you have activated the keyboard zone option and wish to move a limited instrument
range to a lower or higher register of the voice you are playing.
Configuration of audio output
The last selection of the utility bar permits you to select the audio output channel. If the sound
menu offers several outgoing channels, choose the pair of output channels that you wish to use.
8.1.4 Information on CPU usage
The usage gauge of the processor permits you to monitor the amount of CPU usage in real time
for each instance of the Prophet V standalone application.
On PC, this gauge is directly visible in the utility bar of the instrument.
On Macintosh, you can view it by choosing the application menu window->CPU or by choosing
<<Command>> + L
Attention: this reading only shows CPU usage per instance of the Prophet V; therefore it is only part of the overall
usage of the system.
8.1.5 Saving the configuration
Saving allows you to not only keep the state of an instrument, but also the tonal parameters as
well as the MIDI configuration and audio routing.
To save a configuration, simply select the document menu->Save (or document->Save under…
for saving the configuration under a new name)
Attention: This pertains to saving a configuration in the Prophet V standalone application. Saving
the tonal parameters of the instrument has nothing to do with saving the tonal presets of the
instrument itself (see the chapter on management of Prophet V presets). Saving by the means
of the menu does not imply the saving of the current presets.

8.2.1 Installation
Under Windows
During installation, select the box <<VST>> among the proposed format choices of plug-ins. The
installer will automatically detect the VST folder of the instruments used by Cubase. In the case
of another compatible VST sequencer, such as Logic Audio, you will have to manually copy the
plug-in file in the appropriate folder. You will be able to find this file after the installation in
the folder C:\Program\Files\Arturia\Prophet V\. The file is called Prophet V.dll
