Product Information
The Synth Pioneer Collection brings together two ARP-inspired virtual instruments, building on the pioneering engineering of Alan R. Pearlman. These virtual synths include all of Cherry Audio's exceptional touches, such as scores of professionally designed presets, complete MIDI control with flexible mapping, oversampling control, and integrated effects, making the Synth Pioneer Collection sure to satisfy both vintage synth enthusiasts and today's music producers.
Cherry Audio's Quadra is a super-accurate and immensely improved emulation of the ARP Quadra synthesizer, originally released in 1978, and reproduced here for the first time as a virtual instrument. Quadra introduces improvements throughout every section, bringing out the full potential of the original ARP design. Each instrument section can now be layered anywhere across the keyboard, and we've increased transposition ranges for most sections. Quadra also includes a multiple out version for maximum flexibility. The standard "Quadra" instance mixes the four sections to a summed output. "Quadra Multi Out" includes five sets of outputs: a standard stereo mix, plus dry independent outputs for each section, as found on the original hardware.
Cherry Audio CA2600 is a powerful, self-contained duophonic synthesizer inspired by the groundbreaking ARP 2600 synthesizer. Every aspect of the original, from the quirky oscillator waves, to the powerful ladder filter, to the external audio input and preamp section was modeled with tremendous precision. Though it features similar functionality, CA2600 has been thoughtfully updated for increased flexibility - with semi-normalled patch cabling, integrated effects, and no hidden windows or menus in the audio path, CA2600 delivers an unprecedented hands-on, "everything right in front of you, right now!," vintage synthesis experience like no other.
