Native Instruments Pro 53

Pro 53 description:

The Native Instruments PRO-53 carries on the tradition from the legendary days of vintage cult synthesizers.

The Native Instruments Pro 53 virtual instrument, fashioned after the Sequential Circuits Prophet-5, provides the sonic properties of the unique originals while meeting the practical requirements of the present day.

Inspired by the immortal sound of the synthesizer giants of the eighties, Native Instruments created the PRO-53 to cast in software those qualities that have been such a major influence on popular music in the past twenty years: brilliance, power, warmth and beauty. Through Native Instruments' creative development philosophy, these timeless aesthetics have now reached the next step in their evolution. The result is the manifest re-definition of an original that was regarded as unrivalled until now.

The synthesizer emulation has been vastly improved by a new oscillator technology that offers an even warmer and more brilliant sound. In addition the sonic possibilities have been expanded even further with new features like a high-pass filter mode and an invertible filter envelope. The control surface was also reworked and now shines in a whole new light.

Using Native Instruments' highly advanced NSP- Technology (Native Signal Processing) it is possible to generate a software synthesizer that rivals its legendary hardware predecessors. The Native Instruments PRO-53 sets new standards without denying its origins.

No fixed limit to the number of voices, many more savable preset slots, velocity sensitivity, MIDI automation of all available parameters, an additional effects section, a high-pass filter mode, invertible filter envelope, audio input, LFO- envelope retrigger, and the option to run several PRO-53s in parallel.

A built- in effects unit adds multi- echo and ultra-fat chorus and flanging effects. This makes the sound of the PRO-53 'complete' for both live performance and studio production. The included preset sounds make extensive use of the effects. The PRO-53 also has an audio input for processing external audio signals through its filters and effects.

The Native Instruments PRO- 53 integrates perfectly into any computer based virtual studio by supporting the interfaces VST, DXi, MAS and DirectConnect. It can be used as a sequencer plug-in or as a stand- alone synthesizer. It is possible to run several PRO-53 plug-in instances in parallel.
