that would be some damn expensive antique chairs, I tell ya! at least one French king Louis pressed a few farts into. the older Louis it was, the pricier!
@@theARDISAN in retrospect, the hardware synth does sound little brighter and more detailed. The plugin is a little muted, though I don't think that's the correct word.
Ladys and Gents, today I'll reveal the answers to the challenge. In two weeks, no one has managed to have all correct. Closest guess has been 8/10 and the average 5/10. So here they are: 01: Prophet 5 02: Repro-5 03: Prophet 5 04: Repro-5 05: Repro-5 06: Prophet 5 07: Prophet 5 08: Prophet 5 09: Prophet 5 10: Repro-5
I just tested myself. I got all right except for 8 and 9. That's 80% correct. But when you were doing the back and forth in the first half of the video I couldn't hear any differences. Strange.
Watched your video again and damn, they are so close. Uhe nails this one almost perfectly. News: they made an update for Diva which saves some CPU, wanted to share a those amazing news. Have a great time.
I bought the Repro-5 (and 1) straight away. Amazing bit of engineering, a work of art one might say, as is probably all of U-he's stuff. You play well btw :)
God this makes me want to get a lot better at playing keys. Absolutely beautiful voicings and movement. I tuned in for the comparison but almost immediately turned off the analytics brain and just enjoyed what I was hearing. I would buy an album of music like this and I'd pay at least $25 for it.
I think to say they are "getting quite close" is an understatement. I monitor on PSI A25m through the Mytek DA and on that it sounds dead on. Pretty great job matching the sounds in "Part 1". I think in the first patch the actual Prophet sounds like it has a bit of a pitch bend on some notes (maybe a touch of portamento or a bit of envelope to oscillator pitch) but that's a programming difference (and a subtle one at that). You could adjust on the Repro I'm sure. On a top notch monitoring system it's difficult to hide anything and the Repro is there. Again great job programming the sounds to match.
Exactly my thoughts, monitoring in a mastering studio here (am a mastering engineer) and this is SPOT ON. Slight variations in pitch are typical for analog gear, not even one Prophet sounds like the other anyway, so th e software could just be "another" Prophet too - not better, not worse, just a 100% match what they´ve done there - crazy times!
Good thing 90 percent of people listen on ear buds and shitty car speakers... yes it's a cool debate but it's funny even shitty guitar samples people just go owe nice guitar on the track
Well I'm listening on Beyerdynamic DT-880 and also Genelec 8351B in a treated room and I can hear the difference between some patches and the real P5, specifically the first patch he plays when he hits that low A#, the P5 has definitely more heft in the low end. Listen to it again. That said, this could be down to programming and sure they sound almost identical for the most part.
@@manny_f Yep you'll have differences. It's pretty hard to match settings with programming and there will also be some deviation from unit to unit etc etc. Makes the whole point kind of moot probably. Maybe the only relevant question here is can this thing impersonate a Prophet in a production. And it seems like it can I suppose might be the conclusion.
Excelent demo, no matter if the plugin sounds exactly like hardware, everything sound very good and your demo is very, very nice. So, the "human part" of this is what makes the real deifference to me.
@@blueeyedsoulman In my experience, sylenth. I build instrument racks with multiple sylenths and have so many of them running. My sample rate can still be set to the lowest. That is using i7 processor. The new M1/M2 I look forward to trying but I dont trust any youtube vids, just my own experiences. Saving up.
This is an amazing tutorial about how the human brain fails when we expect something we see with our eyes. It is indeed still much more fun to play a Prophet 5 - given that it is in tune, works, and you don't have to kill someone to get it into your studio. Shame on me: I only made 4 guesses right, and I actually played the real thing quite often. What I find interesting is that I did a similar test on a Prophet 5 vs. DSI Prophet 08 and it's successor REV2. In this test, all my guesses were correct except one, but there we had a very short plucked sound. On pads you can tell the difference immediately. More than that, I also let my wife do the DSI comparisons, and she even did a better result, identifying ALL DSI sounds. Unlike me, she has no long time synth background and only knows VSTis . Her secret for guessing was "well when it sounded like a typical VSTi, it's the new one". So, whatever magic there still is in the vintage hardware: Before you get yourself some replica, trust your ears, not your brain. You are better off with an U-He. Theses VSTi's are far closer to the famous vintage sound than their today's analogue counterparts. Hats off, Urs!
I think they are pretty much identical. The differences seem to be in the Volume which could be up to the velocity curves in the keys between the prophet and the midi keyboard. The Diva still seems more dynamic and a bit deeper and warmer.
Very nice, thank you for the comparison. They sound close enough, that I wouldn't care to buy a real Prophet-5, even if money was no problem. Now, as to what is what, here's my assumptions: 1. Repro-5 2. Prophet 3. Prophet 4. Repro-5 5. Repro-5 6. Prophet 7. Repro-5 8. Prophet 9. Repro-5 10. Prophet looking forward to the results!
its an incredible recreation true, great playing ! but to look/ play a midi keyboard compared to actually doing the sounds with an actual prophet 5 is a whole different heaven, surely !
Yeye thats true, but what about spending 150euros for a vst that good and using a midi controller for knobs? The price difference is out of this world for such quality
@@tonioswan true vst's are really good these days, but from my experience they only ever get me half way there. the real sound / feel of actual hardware absolute over takes. i dont shut down vst though, as sometimes they even stay in my mix :)
Why doesn't Sequential LLC just start making Prophet 5's again? It's what people want. Why reinvent the wheel? Korg made an ARP 2600 and it sold out immediately. Their Odyssey (mini and full) and MS-20 (mini) are also big sellers.
I know this is old but it's still a great video - thanks. I was surprised to see I guessed each of them right. I think it's just because my headphones have a load of bass, I didn't even question which was which. The VST is completely missing the very bottom subharmonics which makes it feel like it has a little less weight. I expect those could be added back in with Waves Lo-Air or something like that though.
OP-X Pro II, Legend, and Repro are hands down the only VST that sound like a real analog. BTW still making tracks with your presets on that one. Thanks!
@@princepagan Jup8 V is a joke! Sounds nothing like a real one. The Roland Cloud one is very close to a real thing though. Tal is great and is very close, but again the Roland Cloud one is pretty much perfect. Only qualm with Roland cloud is they lack dynamics. They sound like they are using brickwall compression.
@noturbiz Funny you mention Diva, I was playing with Legend and couldn't quite get the sound I wanted lat night, so I have literally been playing with DIVA every since then. I forgot how amazing this thing is. None of the filters are 100% accurate, but very close. Where this thing shines is that you can Frankenstein any of the most popular synths. And the amazing drift functionality, I cant for the life of me understand why they didn't put this in all their VA's. Got a feeling I wont be leaving DIVA for a week or so, or until I get not lazy enough to unbox and hook up a hardware synth I haven't played with in a while.
Not a synth guy. But I think low bass is not same. Someone who is playing would feel it. Otherwise i don't think no one will notice. But there is something called inspiration. what I've found with high priced legendary instruments is that when you know what legends have made with it, you seem to try harder because then you know for sure its not the instrument, its you.
Great shootout Marius. Thanks. I own repro 5 too and love it. I feel like pro5 has more bottom end on some patch. Some of the preset you made are wonderfull by the way.
Repro is fantastic but.. There is a warm and containment in the lows and the low mids that you really can't emulate. It's something to do with the circuitry. I'm not techncal but I can hear the smoothness and butteryness of the prophet where as the repro sounds kinda flat. The highs i think are closer but again theres something thats rounded off in the original that just makes it so much more pleasent to listen to. But really close and i think in the mix with some saturation it could be even closer.
I literally do not hear a difference at all, but I'm disappointed that he did not compare all of the features including the self-oscillation, wave combinations, and FM.
the VST is subtly brighter with thinner bass to me through my monitors, but only in a side-by-side comparison, and once fitted into a mix, no one will know which is which
even at the start knowing he is playing which one still I couldn't feel the difference. Didn't knew soft synths could mimic this close to their analog hardware. I tried using moog patch book to recreate similar sound patches on Arturia Minimoog, Synapse Audio Legend, and Reaktor Monark. didn't got the exact intended tone. it was similar but very much noticeable difference
William S. I did that by using OSC B for the basic sound and OSC A on square wave only with the Pulswidth set so narrow it is not audible. Then the Envelope is set to both pulsewidth and pitch of OSC A to get that release fade in/pitch up effect.
WTF that's really damn damn close if not no difference. own from U-He Diva and am very happy with her. but I bought U-he Repro 1+5 directly after this video. currently at NI in the sale 75€ for a mega synth. now only your patches are missing ;) thanks for the video.👍👍
wow it sounds really good! at this point I think the only difference in sound would be attributed to your front end recording chain (i.e. nice line amps to colour the sound) and even then the final sounds of the software version could be reamped for the same effect. cool!
Hardware does sound better. u-he did an outstanding job though! Most obvious difference between HW and SW is in the bass registery. I immediately knew Number 3 wasn't Repro.. Wish it was! Good video.
both are sounds very similar. And yeah Repro1/5 - is absolute monster from the VST's. It's sounds so different from other VST's, so rich, raw and harmonic, absolutely love this synth, it's a future of VST and it's already here, when VST can beat most of Hardware synths(and yeah, i using some of best Hardwares too, it's also cool and different sounding, but brothers - we all must recognize - VST is already in same level. minimum:)
I know this is a few years old. I haven’t looked through all 424 comments to see if anyone else asked….. Any chance you would be willing to sell the RePro patches?? I love them!! (In addition to everything else about this video, the P5 sound in general, and RePro 5). Please let me know! You have a customer here if so!
very cool work ! I own repro5, diva & the legend and these softsynths are absolute great and IMO better than arturia, NI, ... but in this video the original pprophet sounds so great. little more grid and a tighter bass ! wow, thanx !
Hello Marius, this is perhaps out of context for this video, but your Hammond playing is so awesome, you are my 'Jon Lord' now. Would you, Martin and the band do 'Flight of the Rat' by Deep purple, from 'In Rock' sometime please? I loved your Purple Medly..to hear you do 'Child in Time', the best Hammond sound on record would make me so very happy :) Many thanks, and keep all those awesome original Keyboards working HARD!
Excellent shootout. Been using repro-1 since day one and cannot wait to explore the R5. Reeeally tricky to tell apart, my guess is that 1,3,6,8 is prophet 5 and 2,4,5,7,9,10 is Repro. Am I close?

but in this video the original pprophet sounds so great. little more grid and a tighter bass !
wow, thanx !
Na Aturia are dope they gave Me the Mini V and Rodes for free, I dont know why but I have them.
#3 on the blind test is fucking gorgeous
how'd you get that sound on repro at 2:35 on repro?? thank you for doing htis!
Hello Marius, this is perhaps out of context for this video, but your Hammond playing is so awesome, you are my 'Jon Lord' now. Would you, Martin and the band do 'Flight of the Rat' by Deep purple, from 'In Rock' sometime please? I loved your Purple Medly..to hear you do 'Child in Time', the best Hammond sound on record would make me so very happy :) Many thanks, and keep all those awesome original Keyboards working HARD!
hardware sounds like it is x16 times oversampled hahah
The rug goes well with the Prophet 🙂
Excellent shootout. Been using repro-1 since day one and cannot wait to explore the R5. Reeeally tricky to tell apart, my guess is that 1,3,6,8 is prophet 5 and 2,4,5,7,9,10 is Repro. Am I close?
