Grab on to the world’s foremost guitar preamp. The Rocktron Prophesy 2, now with presets from Dave Mustaine, Gary Hoey, Rusty Cooley, Jimi Bell and others!!!

Rocktron proudly introduces the Prophesy II, which contains presets programmed by Rocktron endorsers, Dave Mustaine, Gary Hoey, Rusty Cooley, Jimi Bell and more. All Prophesy II presets are new, bold, exciting and amazing!

Nothing compares to this outstanding DSP processor that provides the ultimate control over your tone and effects. Guitar Player Magazine wrote that the Prophesy “provides unprecedented depth and flexibility. From a pure processing standpoint, the Prophesy is a tremendously powerful tone-shaping tool.”

Take the Top 4 guitar sounds used in today’s music:

• Clean American
• Texas Blues
• Vintage British
• Mega Drive

And combine them with the best sounding effects available:

• Ducker Delay
• Reverb
• Tremolo
• Chorus
• Flanger
• Phaser

• Compressor
• Wah Wah
• Pitch Shifter
• Rotary Speaker
Simulator

The preamp section also features a parametric Pre EQ, which allows you to “pre-shape” your tone to simulate the characteristics of several different guitars (such as fine-tuning your Strat to sound more like a Les Paul, Etc) as well as an additional parametric Post EQ to add extra Lows, High, or scoop out the Mids. And if that’s not enough, we also included a Global Parametric EQ which adjust the overall output of the Prophesy on all presets.

Preamp Section

The preamp section of the Prophesy features four channels each with their own distinct “voicings” to provide a vast array of desired tube amp sounds. Each voicing may be thought of as a “channel” and each channel has it’s own basic gain and master controls with bass, mid, treble and presence controls, all easily accessible with “real amp” knobs on the front panel, just like a regular amp head.

• Channel 1 or Clean American, replicates some of the most sought-after clean vintage tweed amps
of the late 50’s and 60’s.

• Channel 2 or “Texas Blues”, is a vintage tweed with a bit more “kick” and “bite” often heard from
the famous southwest bluesers ala “Billy Gibbons, Stevie Ray, Eric Johnson, Etc.”.

• Channel 3 or “Vintage British”, is a traditional “Plexi Style” tone offering some of the most
dynamic rhythm tone available.

• Channel 4 or “Mega Drive” is considered the Holy Grail of almighty heavy tone of modern music
pumping out everything from early Van Halen to Megadeth and everything in between.

The 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. Four assignable “effect blocks” allow you to assign 1 effect pre-preamp and 3 post preamp effects in any order you choose, including Phaser, Flanger, Chorus, Pitch Shift, Rotary Speaker, Ducker Delay, etc. Prophesy also features a versatile mixer section to control the mix between dry and wet signal output of every effect used in the preset.

Effects Section

The effects section of the Prophesy is divided up into two sections, Pre distortion (or pre-preamp), and post distortion (or post preamp) for unlimited configurations of effects. The pre-effects section features Wah, Compressor, HUSH(r), Pre-EQ, as well as one assignable effect of your choice.

If the effects in the Prophesy are not enough, we included a true stereo effect loop which may be assigned anywhere in the effect chain just like an internal effect. Want just an incredibly powerful effect processor? Just bypass the preamp section completely and use the Prophesy a stand-alone effect unit.

The ADSR (Attack/Decay/Sustain/Release) function features Rocktron’s Pluck Detection patent-pending, and allows you to configure any of the Prophesy parameters to be controlled dynamically by each pluck of a guitar string. More about the ADSR as Guitar Player Magazine says: “it’s an incredibly musical application that is very different from the usual expression-pedal tricks. You could do some groundbreaking stuff with this killer function!”

Other features include a visual representation of the assigned effects signal chain, preset title, the voicing (channel) being used, are all conveniently displayed on the first preset page. The buttons in the 16 button matrix show the effect status (in or out) as well as allow you to instantly jump to those effects’ parameter pages for instant adjustment.

Of course, the Prophesy maintains the high quality operational features that Rocktron processors are well known for, such as glitch-free preset switching with no signal drop out or lag time and the most natural sounding effects.
