ARTURIA – PROPHET V - MANUAL

Oscillator Section on the Prophet VS
The main oscillator settings are:
The pitch determined by the oscillation frequency. You can set the frequency of the
oscillator with 2 controllers:
• The tuning parameter (“FREQUENCY”) allows you to tune the oscillator by semi-
tones on range of 5 octaves.
• The fine tuning parameter (“FINE”) finely tunes the oscillator upwards by a
semi-tone. This parameter gives a bit more life to your sound when you use
several oscillators simultaneously, due to difference in frequencies between the
oscillators.
The waveform which determines the harmonic richness of the audio signal. On the
Prophet V, 6 waveforms are available:
• The saw tooth presents the richest audio signal of the 3 waveforms (it contains
all of the harmonics at decreasing volume levels in high frequencies). Its sound
is ideal for brass sounds, percussive bass sounds or rich accompaniments.
• The square possesses a more «hollow» sound that the saw tooth (it only contains
odd harmonics) but none the less, its rich sound (notably in low frequencies) can
be used for sub-bass sounds that will come out well in the mix (the square
