FAST ‘n’ EASY USB INSTALL GUIDE + PATCH LIST

Install Requirements
1. A Prophet Rev2 (Keyboard or Desktop)
2. A PC (Windows 7+) or Mac (macOS 10.9+)
3. The free program MIDI-OX (PC) or SysEx Librarian (Mac)
4.

IMPORTANT!
1. Before installing the patches, you must calibrate your Rev2 (Globals > Calibrate) to ensure the patches sound
as we intended. This is super important, because all Rev2 synths drift out of calibration over time and the
patches may not sound like they do in our Youtube video if you don’t calibrate.
2. When playing the patches, use the mod wheel as well as aftertouch - they’re used to great effect on over 90%
of the patches.

VINTAGE VOICE CHARACTER


We implemented our special Vintage Voice Character programming in many of our patches to get very authentic vintage
synthesizer sounds. Ultimate Patches above patch 100 in Banks U1 / U2 (named “VINTAGE TEMPLATE”) are our Vintage
Voice Character template you can use to create your own patches that will have automatically have vintage character. Just
do not edit Mod slots 7+8 and sequencer slots 1+2 in order to maintain our Vintage Voice Character in your patch.

INSTALLATION PREPARATION - If you haven’t loaded patches into your Rev2 before, here’s how to do it:

1. First, make sure your Rev2 is updated to version 1.1.5.9 or newer:


https://www.sequential.com/updating-prophet-rev2-os/

2. Download and install the free MIDI-OX (PC) or SysEx (Mac) program:
http://www.midiox.com https://www.snoize.com/sysexlibrarian/

3. (Note: The following instructions are edited excerpts from Sequential’s official patch install instructions at
https://www.sequential.com/prophet-rev2-factory-sounds/).
Connect your Rev2 to your PC or Mac using a USB cable. Press the Global button on your Rev2, and use the Parameter
knob to select “MIDI sysex cable” , then use the Value knob to choose USB. The Prophet Rev2 is a Class Compliant USB
device so it doesn’t require additional drivers to be installed to your computer. The Rev2 will appear in MIDI-OX and
other MIDI applications as a MIDI port named “Rev2” (In Windows XP, it will appear as “USB Audio Device.”)

4. Now’s a good time to back up the patches that are currently in your Rev2 before you install your Ultimate
Patches, because patches in bank U1 and U2 of your Rev2 will be overwritten (Ultimate Patches Volume 1
overwrites Bank U1, Volume 2 overwrites Bank U2). Note that your Banks F1-4 (factory patches when you purchase the
Rev2) will not we overwritten when installing using these instructions. To backup, see the “BACKUP - PC / MIDI-OX” or
“BACKUP - Mac / SysEx Librarian” sections in this manual.

Youtube videos are played as demonstrations of the patch and are not included. Our patches have a “U” at the end of the patch
name as an indicator the patch is from Ultimate Patches.
