Setting Up the Prophet-5
It’s not always necessary to enter all 3 digits of a program number to
recall it.
For example:
• If the current program is 111 and you want to recall program 118,
simply press “8.”
• If the current program is 111 and you want to recall program 121,
simply press the bank select button as many times as necessary to
cycle around to “2.”
• If the current program is 111 and you want to recall program 211,
simply press the group select button as many times as necessary to
cycle around to “2.”
Pressing the globals button three times in a row saves the current program as
the default program that appears when you turn on the Prophet-5.
Editing Programs
Because all of the sound-shaping controls of the Prophet-5 appear on its
front panel, editing an existing program is simple: just turn a knob and listen
to its effect. Keep turning knobs and pressing buttons and if you like what
you’ve created, save the program. (See “Saving a Program” on page 9.)
How to Check a Parameter Setting in a Preset
When you’re editing a preset, the Prophet-5 has a convenient way of indicat-
ing the programmed (saved) value for any knob parameter: Whenever you
turn a knob and reach the saved value of a given parameter, an LED dot in
the main Prophet-5 display will illuminate.

The dot illuminates when a knob position matches a preset’s saved parameter value
