The Sequential Take 5 just got a major upgrade — and it’s a free update for all owners. With Poly Chain, you can now link two Take 5s to create a fully integrated 10-voice instrument. That means bigger chords and more complex parts without worrying about voice stealing.

The arpeggiator also gets a serious boost with 10 new patterns, including inventive modes like Spiral and Leapfrog — perfect for adding movement and variation to your sequences. And be sure to check out the wild new Whiplash timing mode that dynamically changes note values based on the number keys held.

This update builds on everything musicians love about the Take 5: classic Prophet-5 tone, a compact footprint, and an intuitive layout that feels great to play. Now, with poly chain and new arp modes, along with a few other key enhancements, the Take 5 is even more full featured and fun.

Whether you're in the studio or on stage, this is your Take 5 to the power of 10.

POLY CHAIN OS UPDATE

  • Poly chain two Take 5s for 10 voices of polyphony — perfect for bigger chords and complex arrangements
  • Adds 10 new arpeggiator patterns for fresh rhythmic and melodic ideas
  • Whiplash arp timing mode dynamically adjusts note values based on how many keys you hold
  • Violet noise added for expanded sound design texture

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 performance 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 fit 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.

Take 5 Desktop Module

  • Offers the same legendary Prophet-5 tone and synthesis functions as the Take 5 keyboard.
  • Provides the same knob-driven user interface with all the same sound design features accessible from the top panel as the keyboard version.
  • Even more compact than the keyboard and painlessly portable - Take your Take 5 anywhere!
