Nearly infinite tone-shaping possibilities with premium, rock-solid DSP processing.
Grab
onto one of the world's foremost guitar preamps: The Rocktron Prophesy II! The depth is truly amazing and the control is top
notch. This outstanding DSP processor provides the ultimate control over your tone and effects. It has an extremely fast,
powerful, and drop-out-free DSP processing engine built around dual 24-bit/66MHz Motorola chips. Plus that processing core
is surrounded by premium Analog Devices converters at each end, so you get maximum headroom, no clipping, and none of the
conversion load is put upon the main processors. This multichip array delivers higher-quality sound than many of its competitors.
On top of all this, the Prophesy II is packed with rippin' presets programmed by Rocktron endorsers, Dave Mustaine, Gary Hoey,
Rusty Cooley, Jimi Bell, and more.
Preamp Section
The preamp section of the Prophesy features
four channels each with their own distinct "voicings" to provide a vast array of desired tube amp sounds. Each voicing may
be thought of as a "channel" and each channel has its own basic gain and master controls with bass, mid, treble and presence
controls, all easily accessible with "real amp" knobs on the front panel, just like a regular amp head.
• Channel
1/Clean American replicates some of the most sought-after clean vintage tweed amps of the late 50s and 60s
• Channel
2/"Texas Blues" is a vintage tweed with a bit more "kick" and "bite" often heard from the famous southwest bluesers ala "Billy
Gibbons, Stevie Ray, Eric Johnson, etc.
• Channel 3/"Vintage British" is a traditional "Plexi Style" tone offering
some of the most dynamic rhythm tone available
• Channel 4/"Mega Drive" the ultimate quest for almighty heavy
tone of modern music pumping out everything from early Van Halen to Megadeth and everything in between
The preamp section
also features a parametric Pre EQ, which allows you to "pre-shape" your tone to simulate the characteristics of several different
guitars (such as fine-tuning your single-coil pickup to sound more like a humbucker, etc.) as well as an additional parametric
post EQ to add extra lows, high, or scoop out the mids. And if that's not enough, there's also a global parametric EQ to adjust
the overall output of the Prophesy on all presets.
Effects Section
The effects section
of the Prophesy is divided up into two sections, pre distortion (or pre-preamp), and post distortion (or post preamp) for
unlimited configurations of effects. The pre-effects section features Wah, Compressor, HUSH(r), Pre-EQ, as well as one assignable
effect of your choice.
The post-effects section provides ultra-transparent, high-quality effects which completely preserve
the tone of the preamp-thick reverbs and lush choruses can be used without coloring the sound of the preamp's tone. Four assignable
"effect blocks" allow you to assign 1 effect pre-preamp and 3 post preamp effects in any order you choose, including Phaser,
Flanger, Chorus, Pitch Shift, Rotary Speaker, Ducker Delay, etc. Prophesy also features a versatile mixer section to control
the mix between dry and wet signal output of every effect used in the preset.
If the effects in the Prophesy are not
enough, Rocktron included a true stereo effect loop which may be assigned anywhere in the effect chain just like an internal
effect. Want just an incredibly powerful effect processor? Just bypass the preamp section completely and use the Prophesy
a stand-alone effect unit.
The ADSR (Attack/Decay/Sustain/Release) function features Rocktron's Pluck Detection patent-pending,
and allows you to configure any of the Prophesy parameters to be controlled dynamically by each pluck of a guitar string.
More about the ADSR as Guitar Player Magazine says: "it's an incredibly musical application that is very different
from the usual expression-pedal tricks. You could do some groundbreaking stuff with this killer function!"
Other features
include a visual representation of the assigned effects signal chain, preset title, the voicing (channel) being used, are
all conveniently displayed on the first preset page. The buttons in the 16 button matrix show the effect status (in or out)
as well as allow you to instantly jump to those effects' parameter pages for instant adjustment.
Of course, the Prophesy
maintains the high quality operational features that Rocktron processors are well known for, such as glitch-free preset switching
with no signal drop out or lag time and the most natural sounding effects.
