ARP 2500 Modular Synth

I was checking the ARP 2500, so decided to video whilst noodling.
Will make something better later...
AMAZING synth. Funky, fat, flexible.

Wow!what a synth.I always imagined what it would be like to use one of these beasts,I have never ever seen one in real life.

I am developing a virtual ARP quadra for Native Instruments Kontakt sampler on mac and pc.

I don't know if you use Kontakt but if you do I would love to send you a version of it for free wehn I finish it(next two weeks) just so I can hear what you could do with it.

Although you probably have a real Quadra don't you? :-)

Peace.

@SPFXsynthesisers Hi and thanks for the offer! Great!!

I wish I had a Quadra. Interesting synth. Right now I am focusing on trying to write rather than collect, so a few synths have gone. For the minute I am using a Polyfusion, 2600 and VCS3 with a Fenix on the way...

Thx

super amazing work man! it's sad you had to sell it!! i fully agree with you that it's a modular that albeit not as "practical" as most, it's one hell of a beast that can be used as the drive and core of a track you produce! i'm currently messing with a Red Square v2. not nearly as amazing as the 2500 but none the less fun as hell and versatile! keep sharing the vids man! you know your modulars!!

[buchla300]

@povkilla Yep sad but such is life! I still have a few nice toys though!

Appreciate the kind words and yes I am sure the Red Square is cool indeed. Most modulars have their own thing and for me it's more about how as an indivudual you get on with your synths.

For the minute I am getting into my Polyfusion which is more "normal" than other modulars I've had but it's a beast!

Thx again

David

@surfrecordslondon thx!

I couldn't afford them.. I'm stuff with this pile of junk.

[spastikman]

aww. I was waiting for you to flip on that 808 :-)

[MrCamelneck]

Awesome synth. Do you like your Buchla or the ARP 2500 the best?

I guess they both excel at different things.

[davedagreat69]

I spy a Zyklus MPS! Also pretty rare.

I'd hate to see the size of it's gig bag.

I'd love to see some music made with it.

Sounded like a moog to start with. How reliable is it?

The 2500 is a beauty. Good noodling too.

@Narcis005 just not doable to get that kind of texture with software, that soundquality and punch, of course everyone will say you can and then they give you shitty examples of something that resemble it, but it's not it. There is something in the character that you can't really describe or touch, it's the soul of analog.
