Chapter 2: Prophet X Controls
This chapter explains all of the controls on the Prophet X, section by
section.
As explained in Chapter 1, the most frequently used controls on the
Prophet X are located on its front panel, with many additional controls
(as well as numeric display of values) visible in its main display.
For example, adjusting a knob or switch in the Mixer section reveals the
instrument level and oscillator level parameters in the display. The
display also reveals additional parameters not found on the front panel
such as panning. You can select and edit these additional parameters
using the four Soft Knobs and Soft Keys located above and below the
display.
The Soft Knobs are detented encoders that are useful for dialing in
values with precision. The soft keys select between various menu tabs.
