Dave Smith Instruments Sequential Take 5 Desktop Module
The Dave Smith Instruments Sequential Take 5 Desktop Module lets you harness the legendary warmth of the Prophet-5 in a streamlined desktop format. Yet, it does much more. With deep modulation and modern digital effects, this compact powerhouse inspires fresh ideas while fitting effortlessly into any studio or stage rig.
Iconic Analog Sound, Refined
At its core, the Take 5 offers five true analog voices, each with two voltage-controlled oscillators, a robust sub-oscillator, and the revered Prophet-5 Rev4 low-pass filter. You can drive the filter into sweet saturation or set it to self-oscillate for classic sweeps and basses. Every knob is exactly where you expect it, so designing signature tones feels fast and intuitive.
Creative Tools That Spark Inspiration
A 19-slot modulation matrix, dual LFOs, and two 5-stage envelopes open endless routing options. Add movement with the 64-step polyphonic sequencer or keep things evolving with the multi-mode arpeggiator. When you need extra character, twist the Vintage Knob to inject subtle, voice-to-voice variations that recall vintage synth behaviours.
Engineered for Modern Workflows
Despite its compact 21-inch width, the Take 5 Desktop Module integrates seamlessly with DAWs, pedalboards, and live rigs. USB and full-size MIDI ports handle communication, while stereo audio outputs and pedal inputs complete the picture. Built-in reverb, delays, and modulation effects mean your patches can leave the box fully produced.
