90年代物理建模声音的复兴
预言在软件中的再现
在20世纪90年代，PCM合成器处于巅峰时期，但俱乐部场景艺术家已经在寻找更灵活的模拟声音，这暗示着21世纪初即将到来的模拟复兴。
正是在这种背景下，预言于1995年宣布，提供了比以往任何时候都更大的灵活性和音色能力。Prophecy独奏合成器由尖端的数字信号处理技术和以前专门用于效果处理的DSP芯片定义，现在可以作为软件插件使用，具有当今音乐制作所需的易用性、复调性和现代功能。
表达方式的进一步演变。
1.5版本现在提供了新的声音程序。
KORG Collection-Prophecy是一款传奇的物理建模合成器，旨在提供超越模拟合成器的表达自由和前所未有的声音创作可能性，其表达能力得到了进一步的发展。在1.5版本中，硬件Prophecy的怪癖现在可以更精确地表达出来，这要归功于原始Prophecy开发团队中才华横溢的人更深入的创造性投入。
1.5版本还增加了180个新程序。这个独特的声音系列展现了预言的个性，从新鲜的、仅限软件的声音到那些向原始预言致敬并将单声道声音设计推向全新水平的声音。请欣赏在原始Prophecy声音设计师的参与下创建的新节目。
配备MOSS合成引擎的振荡器模型
Prophecy for Mac/Win使用软件完全复制原始Prophecy的MOSS（多振荡器合成系统），并配备了七种振荡器类型中的五种。
模拟合成音标准振荡器
这是模拟合成器振荡器的模拟，还配备了脉宽调制（PWM），将音色能力扩展到模拟通常可能的范围之外。
噪声+梳状滤波
该振荡器从白噪声中提取音调分量。与一些人的想法相反，这种算法能够处理的不仅仅是嘈杂的声音。它提供了广泛的可能性，从合成贝斯到弦乐。
可变相位调制
VPM通过调制信号的相位来产生丰富的谐波。载波的相位由调制器改变，产生的信号由波形整形器处理，产生具有高频内容的声音。
交叉/振铃/调制和同步
该振荡器旨在复制相互调制的模拟振荡器。因此，它可以产生具有丰富谐波的金属铃声，如钟声。
物理建模
物理建模振荡器包括以下三种类型。所有类型都具有物理建模所特有的宽色调范围。
黄铜模型振荡器
这个振荡器模拟了小号和长号等铜管乐器。它使用按键速度和模式轮等控制器来调节吹向吹口的力度，并可以创造出类似于真实铜管乐器的表演。
里德模型振荡器
这个振荡器模拟了萨克斯管和长笛等木管乐器。它使用键速度和模式轮等控制器来调节风压，并可以创造出与真实木管乐器相似的性能。
弹拨弦振荡器
这个振荡器模拟吉他和贝斯等弹拨乐器。它可以模拟不同的拨弦方法，如使用镐或手指，以及模拟琴弦的状态和演奏的琴弦的位置。
每个振荡器模型的声音都可以使用非线性波形整形器进行处理。使用CLIP或RESO两种类型之一，振荡器输出
The Revival of the 90’s Physical Modeling Sound
A Reproduction of the Prophecy in Software
In the 1990s, PCM synths were at their peak, but club scene artists were already searching for a more flexible, analog sound, hinting at the coming analog revival of the 2000s.
It was in this context that the Prophecy was announced in 1995, offering more flexibility and timbral capabilities than ever before heard. Defined by the cutting edge digital signal processing technology and a DSP chip formerly used exclusively for effects processing, the Prophecy Solo Synthesizer is now available as a software plugin, with the ease of use, polyphony, and modern features necessary for today’s music production.
A further evolution in expression.
Version 1.5 is now available with new sound programs.
KORG Collection - Prophecy, a legendary physical modeling synthesizer developed with the aim of offering freedom of expression beyond analog synthesizers and unprecedented sound creation possibilities, has evolved even further in its expressive capabilities. In version 1.5, the quirks of the hardware Prophecy can now be expressed even more precisely thanks to deeper creative input from the brilliant minds in the original Prophecy development team.
Version 1.5 also adds 180 new programs. This unique sound collection brings out the individuality of the Prophecy, ranging from fresh, software-only sounds to those that pay homage to the original Prophecy and pushes monophonic sound design to all new levels. Please enjoy the new programs created with the participation of the original Prophecy sound designers.
Equipped with Oscillator Models from the MOSS Synthesis Engine
Prophecy for Mac/Win uses software to fully reproduce the original Prophecy’s MOSS (Multi-Oscillator Synthesis System) and is equipped with five of the seven total oscillator types.
Standard Oscillator for Analog Synth Sounds
This is a simulation of analog synth oscillators and is also equipped with Pulse Width Modulation (PWM), expanding the timbral capabilities beyond what is normally possible in analog.
Noise + Comb Filtering
This oscillator extracts tone components from white noise. Contrary to what some might think, this algorithm is capable of more than just noisy sounds. It offers a wide range of possibilities, from synthy basses to strings.
VPM (Variable Phase Modulation)
VPM creates rich harmonics by modulating the phase of a signal. The carrier’s phase is changed by the modulator, and the resulting signal is processed by the wave shaper, resulting in sounds with high frequency content.
Cross / Ring / Modulation and Sync
This oscillator is designed to replicate analog oscillators modulating one another. As a result, it can produce chiming, metallic sounds with rich harmonics like bells.
Physical Modeling
The physical modeling oscillator includes the three types below. All types feature the wide tonal range that is unique to physical modeling.
Brass Model Oscillator
This oscillator simulates brass instruments such as trumpets and trombones. It uses controllers like key velocity and mod wheel to modulate the strength of blowing into the mouthpiece, and can create performances that are similar to real brass instruments.
Reed Model Oscillator
This oscillator simulates woodwind instruments like saxophones and flutes. It uses controllers like key velocity and mod wheel to modulate the wind pressure, and can create performances that are similar to real woodwind instruments.
Plucked String Oscillator
This oscillator simulates plucked string instruments like guitar and bass. It can model different methods of picking the string, like using a pick or fingers, as well as modelling the condition of the strings, and the positions of strings that are played.
The sounds from each oscillator model can be processed using a nonlinear wave shaper. Using one of the two types, CLIP or RESO, the oscillator output |
