ARP: Solus

High Quality: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v80DBq5vLJw&fmt=18
Me playing a few patches made with my ARP Solus synthesizer. The ARP Solus was manufactured during the very late 70's and throughout the 80's before ARP became bankrupt. It is basically the ARP Odyssey's little brother because had most of the same functions that the odyssey had except it lacked sample and hold and the PPC controls. It comes in its own built in case and has 2 VCOs capable of producing sawtooth and square waves, 1 VCF that has CV and ADSR controls, 1 ADSR with single, multi and auto controls, 1 LFO, ring modulation and pitch bend as well as other tuning controls. This particular Solus is loaned to me from the Oldham Music Centre as no one had put it too good use for over 15 years and have let it gather dust and damp unfortunately. It is still in playing condition, all the switches and sliders work great, the only problem i have with it is that a couple of key contacts act a little odd due to the damp, but this is nothing major. Overall, this is a very powerful and underestimated synth that produces big fat bass sounds as well as weird and wonderful sounds.
