Moving to the Next Level
This overview just covers basic operation. The Prophet 12 is a deep
instrument filled with possibility and playing it is a lot more compelling
than reading a manual. But we would like to point you in the direction
of a few things that will help you tailor the instrument to your needs.
In particular, check out the Global Settings section of the manual. Read
about Pot Modes and determine which works best for you. You’ll also
find information about MIDI setup to more effectively integrate the
Prophet 12 into your rig, as well as information about using a footswitch
and expression pedals. Also, look for the tips and notes scattered
throughout the manual to gain a better working knowledge of the
instrument.
