Rocktron prophesy ii Guia Do Utilizador

1. Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of the Rocktron Prophesy

™

!

Effectively comprising three complete processors in a single package, the Prophesy is the single most powerful

and sophisticated guitar system available today. With dual 24-bit, 66MHz DSP processors providing 130mips of

processing power, the Prophesy is over 12 times as powerful as the original Rocktron Intellifex!

The pre-effects section features wah, compression, EQ, and numerous other effects that can be assigned prior

to the preamp section. The highly-configurable 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.

The preamp section features four channels

(Clean American, Texas Blues, Vintage British

and Mega Drive), each with their own distinct

voicings to provide a vast array of amp sounds

to the player — especially when combined with

the pre and post parametric EQ.

The ADSR (Attack/Decay/Sustain/Release)

function features Rocktron's patent-pending

pluck detection, and allows you to configure

specific Prophesy parameters to be controlled

dynamically by each pluck of a guitar string.

Getting Started

Often the large number of display pages and

preset parameters in a product such as the

Prophesy can seem a little overwhelming to a

new user. Once you have become familiar with

the basic operating interface of the Prophesy,

we encourage you to study the Performance

Notes section in the Appendix of this manual.

The Performance Notes section describes how

many of the factory presets were created, and

discusses how to get a particular distortion

sound, which effects are used, etc. You can

use the information from these notes to help

you in creating your own unique presets.

For a thorough explanation of the Prophesy and its many features, please read this manual carefully and keep

it for future reference.
