Sequential Take 5 Module

Building on the success of the Take 5 keyboard, the desktop module features the same powerful analog oscillators and filters that capture the iconic warmth and depth of the Prophet-5. Enhanced with modern modulation and digital effects, the module delivers this sought-after sound in a space-saving design, perfect for studio setups and live performances where portability and efficiency are key.

The Take 5 Desktop Module provides the same hands-on, knob-based experience as its keyboard counterpart, allowing for intuitive sound design and real-time parameter adjustments. Users can delve deep into sound creation with controls that are simple and direct, making it fast and easy to polish your sound.

This synth fits perfectly in smaller studio or bedroom setups and is easy to transport for live gigs. The Take 5 desktop module is designed to bring its signature Sequential sound to a wider audience than ever before, making music creation more accessible and enjoyable.
