  1. 5/5Sounds amazing!!!

    I have to admit that I didn’t like it at first - same old boring patches drenched in chorus, delay and reverb. But thankfully I dug deeper and what’s under the hood is truly special. The first thing is that the patches don’t fall apart when you remove the fx - they still sound full of character. This synth captures the spirit of working in the analog domain and sounds like an actual instrument full of surprises and quirks and possibilities. Does it sound exactly like a prophet 5? I don’t really care as long as it sounds alive and this synth definitely delivers when you dive deep. Some of the banks further down on the list really start to show what’s possible. And finally the added design touches really make it shine — poly unison, retro and modern filters, high pass filter, arp (but please add swing), additional LFOs and mod matrix, vintage knob, saturation, overdrive and recently micro tuning!!

  2. 5/5An Amazing Instrument

    This is a recreation of the classic Sequential Circuits’ Prophet 5, but the AudioKit team has breathed so much love into this app that, in many ways, it far exceeds the original while still preserving the essential character. Normally, when exploring a new app, I’ll start making patches, seeing how far I can push the synth engine. I usually make 10. With the A5, I made 20 in one sitting, and each was something I immediately wanted to use. The modulation capabilities are vast. In addition to 3 LFOs, OSC 2 can be used as a 4th LFO, or as an Audio Frequency modulation source for FM, opening a whole new set of sounds. As with many AudioKit apps, the UI is easy to navigate, and packed with an abundance of features. Need an arpeggiator? Done. A sequencer? It’s there. Need to play a Gamelan scale? A whole microtonal scale system is built in. The audio effects are simple, but sound amazing. AudioKit continues to update capabilities, improve performance, and fix bugs quickly when they show up. Also, buying their apps supports their important mission of providing free professional tools to anyone who wants to learn synthesis, or make music. Thanks, Matthew!

  3. 5/5Well thought out, quality sounds

    I have too many iOS synths, because I keep hoping one will be on the level of something like U-He Diva, this comes close and seems well coded and designed. The presets are nice, the tone is rich and the built in sequencer is making it extra deep. Randomize preset button is a nice touch. If you’re trying to decide between many classic style synths, I recommend this A5, Poison 202, and the Moog v Model D. and your basically all set.

  4. 2/5Uninspiring

    I really don’t like the layout of the UI in the synth apps from this developer. There are too many pages and the controls are spread out across them seemingly without any logic, not neatly grouped by their function. Tons of wasted space in the UI, the controls could’ve easily been condensed into one, maybe two pages. The app sounds very very loosely inspired by that famous synth from Sequential - unfortunately it sounds anything like it. There is a level of „genericness” to all the sounds in the synth, I’ve tried several app from this developer and they all have this common characteristic and actually don’t sound that different from one another. If you already have one synth apps from this developer, you are likely ok to just skip this app.

  5. 4/5Epic but Needs Easy Bug Fix

    I’m loving the tones I’m getting out of this! However, as a drummer who’s often playing bass with my left hand, I noticed that in mono mode, you still get overlapping polyphony with a long Release. Not sure if this is reflecting the original hardware (for instance, this isn’t an issue in other apps like J6 nor King of FM which I also love), but either way, it’d be great if a future update could include a true monophonic voice mode so triggering a new note while, a previous note is still releasing, will actually retrigger the VCA instead of adding second (or even 3rd) voice.

  • 1.4.1

    THANKS EVERYONE! • IMPROVED: World Scales work better. The following scales are fine-tuned by experts: Chinese (Pentatonic), Çargâh, Hicaz Ascending (Turkish), Hicaz Descending (Turkish), Huseyni (Modern / Arabic), Hüseyni Ascending (Turkish), Hüzzam, Karcıǧar, Nikriz Ascending, Rast Ascending v1, Rast Ascending v2, Rast Descending v2, Saba (Arabic), Şedaraban (Turkish), Sikah (Arabic), Segâh (Turkish), Suznak [Basit] (Arabic), Pahadi Raga • IMPROVED: LFO Timing • Plus, lots of other small fixes! COMING SOON: More Updates + Almost 200 NEW professionally made presets. It'll be a Free upgrade!

  • 1.4.2 · 19 Jul 2026

    THANKS EVERYONE! • FIXED: Long glide/portamento now returns smoothly from the current pitch position when releasing a held note, instead of jumping to the target note first. The other AudioKit synths will also get this fix. Thanks! • IMPROVED: Mono mode behavior has been refined. Mono non-legato still keeps the musical analog-style response where released notes can naturally ring out, useful for Juno-style arp tails and long releases. Mono Legato now more strictly cuts off lingering release tails after keys are released, for a more traditional mono synth response. • FIXED: A few presets could play with an unexpectedly fast LFO or "mystery vibrato" after loading or saving. LFO rates now remain consistent with the knob setting. MORE FREE UPDATES and FREE PRESETS COMING SOON!
