French synthesist Valmont shared this video demo of 19 custom sounds on the vintage Sequential Prophet 600, played thru a Strymon Big Sky reverb effects pedal.
Behringer recently officially introduced a knockoff of the Prophet 600, in module format, the Behringer Pro-800.
The Prophet-600 used in the video has no GliGli installed, so the demo reflects the capabilities of an original Prophet 600.

0:00 – Very 600 Strings
0:18 – PolyMod Filter
0:46 – Synclavier spirit
0:56 – CS80 spirit

Sounds fantastic
so nice! thanks for this
I bought some 3rd-party sounds for mine that showed it off far above the presets. It was never a wide-range sound-design synth, but it was great for pads and leads. Big synth-organs as well. I’d love to know how many people who had P-600s now own a Prophet-6. I’ve had my share of gear, but the P-600 is still high on my list of really fun synths. Once I started running it through delays & reverbs, it took off.
My live set up back in the day was 2 Pro Ones, 2 CZ-1000s, a Juno 60 and a Prophet 600, I loved the Prophet 600 and though the membrane pads eventually got temperamental it was what I could afford and worked for my needs quite nicely,
That sounds like a huge setup on stage; I hope you had roadies. What band?
you could play a kazoo tru that reverb and it would sound nice. ^^
