2. ACTIVATION AND SETUP

2.1. Register and Activate

Prophet-VS V works on computers equipped with Windows 8.1 or later, and macOS 10.13 or

later. You can play it in standalone mode or use it as a plug-in instrument in Audio Units,

AAX, VST2, or VST3 format.

Once you install Prophet-VS V, the next step is to register the software. This is a simple

process that involves a different software program, Arturia Software Center.

2.1.1. Arturia Software Center (ASC)

If you haven't installed ASC yet, please go to this webpage:

Arturia Downloads & Manuals

Look for the Arturia Software Center near the top of the page, and then download the

installer version for the system you’re using (Windows or macOS).

After you complete the installation instructions, proceed to do the following:

• Launch the Arturia Software Center (ASC).
• Log into your Arturia account.
• Scroll down to the 'My Products' section of ASC.
• Click on the

Activate button next to the software you want to start using (in this

case, Prophet-VS V).

It's as simple as that!

2.2. Initial Setup for Stand-Alone Use

If you would like to use Prophet-VS V in stand-alone mode, you will need to set up the

software and ensure that MIDI and audio signals are flowing through it properly. You only

need to do this once unless you'd make some major changes to your computer. The setup

process is largely the same on both Windows and macOS computers but for the sake of

clarity, we’ll cover each system separately.



! This section only applies to readers that plan to use Prophet-VS V in stand-alone mode. If you are

only going to use the software as a plug-in within a host music software, you can jump to the end of
this chapter -

Using Prophet-VS V in plug-in mode [p.12]

- as your host music software will handle these

things automatically.
