Arturia ARP 2600V

Virtual Recreation of the ARP 2600 'Semi-Modular' Synthesizer...

The ARP 2600 is one of the finest analogue synthesizers ever made. Celebrated by the most respected musicians over the last thirty years, it is capable of creating amazing sounds thanks to the exclusive ARP technology. The ARP 2600 can be operated with or without patchcords since all of the functions are internally wired and can be controlled via sliders and switches. Due to this approach users can use the system simply while creating some of the wildest and most musically expressive analogue sounds ever!

With the ARP2600V, Arturia brings this powerful analogue synthesizer back to life. In addition to the original functions, MIDI control, polyphony, and the ability to create, save and recall presets are all provided. But that's not all: behind the speaker panels are innovative hidden features that take the original design of the ARP 2600 to a new level. Four revolutionary tracking generators add sound design possibilites that have never been seen before. Additional effects are also provided and with the original ARP sequencer, form an exciting new synthesizer...

If you are a beginner - fear not!.. the ARP 2600V has hundreds of preset sounds to let you get started straight away. Meanwhile... experienced sound designers can delve straight into the massive potential offered by the ARP 2600V to add new dimensions to their music!

"The ARP2600V is a fantastic soft-version of the original (and I should know - I've had one for over 10 years). To have all this power and character in a soft-synth is brilliant, but that is only half the story... Arturia have enhanced the synth with many additional features that make this much more than just a copy of the original. Besides the oscillator and filter additions, the tracking generator is a seriously modern touch, and the inclusion of the sequencer opens up a whole new world." - Paul Hartnoll (Orbital)
