Sequential Pro 3 – Hybrid Mono/Paraphonic Synthesizer
The Sequential Pro 3 is a powerhouse hybrid synthesizer that combines two analog oscillators, a wavetable oscillator, and three selectable analog filters in a flexible mono/paraphonic design. With deep modulation, sequencing, and effects, it bridges the gap between classic analog warmth and modular-style sound design in a compact 37-key instrument.
Key Features
- Hybrid oscillator engine: 2 analog VCOs + 1 wavetable oscillator (32 wavetables, 16 waveforms each, wave morphing)
- Selectable filters: Prophet-6 low-pass, Moog-style ladder, OB-6 state-variable with LP/HP/BP/Notch
- Mono & paraphonic modes: Play as a powerful monophonic synth or in 3-voice paraphony
- Advanced modulation: 3 syncable LFOs, 4 loopable DADSR envelopes, 32-slot modulation matrix
- 16-track sequencer: Automates notes and parameters with up to 64 steps, 4 patterns per sound
- Dual effects: Reverb, delay (standard & BBD), chorus, phaser, plus analog distortion and tuned feedback
- Performance controls: Touch strip, pitch & mod wheels, aftertouch, and extensive real-time modulation options
Customer Benefits
The Pro 3 offers the sound-shaping power of a modular rig in a single, integrated instrument. Its blend of analog and digital oscillators, versatile filters, and deep modulation makes it perfect for creating everything from classic synth tones to experimental textures. Compact yet powerful, it’s designed for both studio producers and live performers.
