Prophet-10 User’s Guide
Pitch and Mod Wheels
Pitch and Mod Wheels
The Prophet-10 has a spring-loaded Pitch wheel and a Mod wheel. You
can use these controls to enhance live performance by bending notes and
adding modulation in real time as you play.
PITCH MOD
The Pitch and Modulation wheels
Pitch Wheel
The Pitch wheel allows for a broad range of effects from subtle vibrato,
to half or whole-step note bends, to full-on guitar whammy bar-style
bends. By default its range is set to a semitone (a half step) but you can
change this on a per-program basis to up to an octave.
To use the Pitch wheel:
1. Hold a note and move the Pitch wheel up or down. The farther you
move the wheel from center, the wider the pitch variation.
2. For a vibrato effect, try rocking the Pitch wheel back and forth.
To set the Pitch wheel bend range for a specic program:
1. Press and hold the freq a button in the wheel-mod section.
2. Use the group select (decrement) and bank select (increment)
switches to choose the desired range from 1- 12. A setting of 1 equals a
semitone. A setting of 12 equals an octave.
