u-he Repro: Component-Level Emulations of Two Sequential Circuits Classics

u-he Repro packages two component-level emulations as one purchase — Repro-1 modelling the Sequential Circuits Pro-One, and Repro-5 modelling the Sequential Circuits Prophet-5. Both are considered among the most authentic softsynth emulations of Dave Smith’s hardware, praised by producers who own the classic instruments. One plugin, two synths, u-he’s signature circuit modelling.

What’s Inside

• Repro-1: component-level model of the SCI Pro-One monosynth — the powerful bass and lead synth Dave Smith designed as a monophonic partner to the Prophet-5
• Repro-5: component-level model of the SCI Prophet-5 polysynth — the eight-voice polyphony (increased from the Prophet-5’s five voices) plus a unison mode that sounds monstrous
• Effects section: Jaws (wavefolder), Lyrebird (flexible delay), RESQ (semi-parametric EQ or resonator), Drench (lush plate reverb), Sonic Conditioner (stereo saturator and transient designer)
• Sequencer (Repro-1): step-record two patterns of up to 32 notes each, save with the preset, copy/paste patterns between instances
• Unison mode (Repro-5): extreme stacking that goes past what the hardware Prophet-5 could do
• Modelled circuit behaviour: same u-he circuit-accurate modelling used in Diva
• MPE support: full MIDI Polyphonic Expression on modern controllers

Who Is It For?

Producers who want the Sequential Circuits sound without paying for hardware. Synthwave and retrowave producers reaching for the classic Prophet-5 pad and lead tones. Bass players building custom sub-bass patches with the Pro-One’s fat monosynth character. Film composers using the Prophet sound on cinematic pads and analog-style leads. Producers who own Diva already and want u-he’s Prophet-specific emulation as the natural complement.

System Requirements

• macOS 11 or higher, 64-bit, Apple Silicon native
• Windows 10 or 11 (64-bit)
• Formats: VST, VST3, AU, AAX, CLAP, Standalone

How Producers Use u-he Repro

Synthwave producers set Repro-5 with two detuned oscillators through the low-pass filter for the classic Prophet-5 supersaw pad sound. Bass producers reach for Repro-1 with three oscillators for fat monosynth bass that sits between the sub and midrange. Retrowave producers use Repro-5’s unison mode on lead lines for a stacked sound past what the hardware Prophet-5 could do. Ambient producers use the Drench plate reverb effect for lush tail character on Prophet-style pad patches. See our synthesizer plugins collection for related tools.

Frequently Asked Questions

How close does Repro-5 sound to the hardware Prophet-5?

Producers who own both report that Repro-5 gets closer than any other softsynth Prophet-5 emulation. Not identical — component tolerances vary between hardware units too — but close enough that a lot of mix engineers use Repro-5 instead of the hardware for song after song. u-he modelled the circuit behaviour rather than sampling, which gives the plugin the same character across settings.

Is Repro-1 different from Repro-5?

Different instruments. Repro-1 is a monophonic Pro-One emulation with a step sequencer. Repro-5 is a polyphonic Prophet-5 emulation with unison mode. They share sonic DNA (both from Dave Smith’s hardware) but Repro-1 has the fat monosynth bass character, Repro-5 has the polyphonic lead and pad sound. u-he ships both under one Repro purchase.

Does Repro work on Apple Silicon?

Yes. Native Apple Silicon build. Runs on M1, M2, M3, M4 and M5 Macs without Rosetta. CLAP format also available for hosts that support it.
