Unison

When unison is on, the Prophet Rev2 functions like a monophonic

synthesizer in that only one note can be played at a time. However, that

one note can be powered by as many as 8 or 16 voices, depending on

how many you choose to use (and whether you have an 8 or 16-voice

Prophet Rev2). With many oscillators powering a single note, you can

create some very dense, speaker-rattling sounds.

If you want to create an ultra-heavy synth bass, try using Unison!

Unison gives you control over not only how many voices to stack, but

also the amount of detuning between the oscillators (with the

unison

detune parameter in the misc params menu), and what note gets priority

if you happen to play more than one note on the keyboard. (This is called

the key assign mode or note priority. See “Key Modes” on page 53 for

details.)
