happyrat1 Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 I need help, badly with this one. I've been trying to write an INS file for the Prophet Rev 2 but am at a loss to determine the bank select method and bank select numbers for it. My experiments so far have led to howls of rage and feedback galore to the point where I may blow out my monitors. The only DSI instrument I can find is an archived INS file for the 30 year old Tetra and using it as a model I get totally unpredictable results, I'm at my wit's end. If anyone out there has a working INS file for the Sequential Circuits Prophet Rev 2, PLEASE upload it. Even a working INS for a different recent prophet would be a help. Thanks for listening.

happyrat1 Posted June 27, 2022 Author Share Posted June 27, 2022 Take a look at that file you pointed me at. It's a blank skeleton with no bank select method or bank numbers or patch names. I've already looked at it and it's pretty much useless. Gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happyrat1 Posted June 28, 2022 Author Share Posted June 28, 2022 I've been in contact with Sequential and they told me the Ban k Select method is #2, Controller 32. This gets me a little closer to a working INS file. I've also been informed that the previous owner of the board overwrote the factory banks so I'll have to address that issue as well.

sjoens Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Sorry, it was the only one I found online. My old synth (different brand) was tricky to configure as well. Somehow I figured it out and refined the ins file to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happyrat1 Posted June 28, 2022 Author Share Posted June 28, 2022 Here is what I have so far. It's selecting the correct patch numbers now but not switching banks. The controller section is garbage copied from the DSI Tetra. Any suggestions on where I'm going wrong? Gary Prophet Rev2.ins 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjoens Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 (edited) Looks like it should work but after scouring the web it seems DSI users don't use Sonar/CbB. 😕 Sorry there isn't more help on this. Edited June 30, 2022 by sjoens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
