Rocktron efect


Preamp Section

The preamp section of the Prophesy features four channels each with their own distinct "voicings" to provide a vast array of desired tube amp sounds. Each voicing may be thought of as a "channel" and each channel has it’s own basic gain and master controls with bass, mid, treble and presence controls, all easily accessible with "real amp" knobs on the front panel, just like a regular amp head.

• Channel 1 or Clean American, replicates some of the most sought-after clean vintage tweed amps
of the late 50’s and 60’s.

• Channel 2 or "Texas Blues", is a vintage tweed with a bit more "kick" and "bite" often heard from
the famous southwest bluesers ala "Billy Gibbons, Stevie Ray, Eric Johnson, Etc.".

• Channel 3 or "Vintage British", is a traditional "Plexi Style" tone offering some of the most
dynamic rhythm tone available.

• Channel 4 or "Mega Drive" is considered the Holy Grail of almighty heavy tone of modern music
pumping out everything from early Van Halen to Megadeth and everything in between.

The preamp section also features a parametric Pre EQ, which allows you to "pre-shape" your tone to simulate the characteristics of several different guitars (such as fine-tuning your Strat to sound more like a Les Paul, Etc) as well as an additional parametric Post EQ to add extra Lows, High, or scoop out the Mids. And if that’s not enough, we also included a Global Parametric EQ which adjust the overall output of the Prophesy on all presets.


Effects Section

The effects section of the Prophesy is divided up into two sections, Pre distortion (or pre-preamp), and post distortion (or post preamp) for unlimited configurations of effects. The pre-effects section features Wah, Compressor, HUSH(r), Pre-EQ, as well as one assignable effect of your choice.


The post-effects section provides ultra-transparent, high-quality effects which completely preserve the tone of the preamp-thick reverbs and lush choruses can be used without coloring the sound of the preamp’s tone. Four assignable "effect blocks" allow you to assign 1 effect pre-preamp and 3 post preamp effects in any order you choose, including Phaser, Flanger, Chorus, Pitch Shift, Rotary Speaker, Ducker Delay, etc. Prophesy also features a versatile mixer section to control the mix between dry and wet signal output of every effect used in the preset.

If the effects in the Prophesy are not enough, we included a true stereo effect loop which may be assigned anywhere in the effect chain just like an internal effect. Want just an incredibly powerful effect processor? Just bypass the preamp section completely and use the Prophesy a stand-alone effect unit.

The ADSR (Attack/Decay/Sustain/Release) function features Rocktron’s Pluck Detection patent-pending, and allows you to configure any of the Prophesy parameters to be controlled dynamically by each pluck of a guitar string. More about the ADSR as Guitar Player Magazine says: "it’s an incredibly musical application that is very different from the usual expression-pedal tricks. You could do some groundbreaking stuff with this killer function!"

Other features include a visual representation of the assigned effects signal chain, preset title, the voicing (channel) being used, are all conveniently displayed on the first preset page. The buttons in the 16 button matrix show the effect status (in or out) as well as allow you to instantly jump to those effects’ parameter pages for instant adjustment.

Of course, the Prophesy maintains the high quality operational features that Rocktron processors are well known for, such as glitch-free preset switching with no signal drop out or lag time and the most natural sounding effects.

"I've been using the Prophesy for about the last 10 years and it's never let me down. Rocktron is great gear and thanks for your contining support of me, David Shankle and the David Shankle Group."

Fender Bass!


Eye-catching vintage style with a technological twist!

The Jaguar Bass has added a new level of cool to the world of electric bass since its introduction in 2006. Though it's based on the design one of the most popular guitars from the early '60s, don't let the Jaguar's retro look fool you—this bass is chock-full of modern features. With the goal of total tonal control, the Jaguar bass gives you the ability to switch pickups on and off, from series to parallel, and from active to passive. This provides you with a tonal palette that works for all types of players, from the set-and-forget player to the eternal tone-adjuster. Stylistically, it has a thin, fast, one-piece C-shaped maple neck that has a warm tint with a rosewood fingerboard, complete with aged white pearloid block position markers.

Cymbal info

Types of cymbals

Chinese: Chinese cymbals feature an upturned edge that gives these models a raw, Oriental sound. They are played for 'effect', offering dirty ride sounds on short, dirty punches when played for accents.

Crash: Ranging from 12" to 20". Crash cymbals are designed for accenting or 'crashing'. Thinner models are more 'explosive', heavier models more direct and powerful.

Crash Ride: These are medium-thin cymbals, available in sizes 18 and 20 inches in diameter. They are suitable for both crash work as well as sustained ride cymbal playing.

Flat Ride cymbals have no bell and generate a clean and precise ride articulation with a shimmering yet defined sound. They are best utilized in a jazz setting, when a clear sound is desired. (i.e. piano trios, vocalists, jazz guitar, etc.)

Hi-Hats: Ranging from 10” to 15” (14” is most popular). A pairing of two cymbals on a pedal-operated hi-hat stand. Close the cymbals for playing tighter, more definite sounds; open for bigger, louder sounds; or alternate open and closed to play interesting patterns.

Ride: Ranging from 18" to 24" (20" is most popular). The ride is the main cymbal for playing rhythms and grooves. Play the bell area for bright, crisp notes or across the bow for bigger sounds. Heavier models produce more definite sounds.

Sizzle: 18 to 22 inches in diameter, in which holes are drilled and rivets are installed to give a sizzling or buzzing type of cymbal sound.

Splash: Ranging from 6" to 12". Splash cymbals are played for fast, 'splashy' accents of short duration.

Swish: Usually 18 to 22 inches in diameter, with an almost inverted profile. Swish cymbals normally have rivets installed to give a Chinese tonal effect and are especially useful in playing Big Band arrangements.
