Calibrating the Prophet Rev2
Programs can also be dumped directly from one Rev2 to another using
the MIDI DIN jack, if the midi sysex cable parameter is set to midi in the
global menu.
To export a program or bank as a SysEx le over MIDI:
1. Connect two Rev2 synthesizers together using MIDI cables and the
midi in and midi out jacks on their rear panels.
2. Press the global button on Rev2 that you want to send programs from.
3. On both synthesizers, use the parameter knob to select midi sysex
cable, then use the value knob to choose midi.
4. On the Rev2 that you want to send the programs from, press the global
button (if it’s not already on) and use the parameter knob to select
dump prog, dump bank, or dump all banks, depending on which of
these you would like to do.
5. Press write. The program or bank is exported to the other Rev2.
Importing Programs and Banks
You can use a MIDI librarian application such as such as SysEx Librar-
ian for Macintosh, or MIDIOX for Windows to transmit exported
program or banks back into your Prophet Rev2. You will need a
computer and an appropriate software application.
The Prophet Rev2 is compatible with Prophet ’08 sounds, so you can
import any Prophet ’08’ programs and they will sound just as good, if not
better!
To import a program or bank as a SysEx le over MIDI:
1. Connect your synthesizer to a computer using a USB cable (or MIDI
cable, if you are using a dedicated MIDI interface).
2. Press the global button on your Rev2.
3. Use the parameter knob to select midi sysex cable, then use the value
knob to choose either usb or midi, depending on which port you are
using to connect to your computer.
4. Open your MIDI librarian software and congure it to send SysEx
messages to your synthesizer.
5. In the MIDI librarian, open the programs and/or banks you want to send.
6. Transmit the programs. The Prophet Rev2 should load them. They will
replace any existing programs in those memory locations on the synth.
Programs will load back into the same bank and program locations from which
they were originally exported.
Calibrating the Prophet Rev2
Because the Prophet Rev2 is calibrated at the factory, controls such as
the Pitch and Mod wheels shouldn’t require re-calibration. However, if
for some reason you experience unexpected behavior with these controls,
you can use the built-in calibration function to tune them occasionally.
Calibrating the Oscillators and Filters
To calibrate the oscillators and lters:
1. Press the global button.
2. Use the parameter knob to select calibrate, then press the write button.
3. The synthesizer performs its auto-calibration procedure. Don’t turn off
the power while it’s doing this.
4. When nished, the front panel controls will return to normal and you
can play the Prophet Rev2 again.
Calibrating the Pitch and Mod Wheels
To calibrate the Pitch and Mod wheels:
1. Press the global button.
2. Use the parameter knob to select calibrate wheels, then follow the
instructions in the display.
3. When nished, the front panel controls will return to normal and you
can play the Prophet Rev2 again.
