The authenticity started to wobble when I inspected the sine waves (see the last two graphs on this page). The equivalence is clear, and, as one would hope, the sound from these is all but indistinguishable. The first two graphs below show the sawtooth waveform generated by VCO2 on my grey-face ARP 2600, and on 2600V.
I began by evaluating the primary modules in the signal path: the VCOs, VCF, VCA, the output section, and the envelope generators that control them.
#Arturia minimoog v original software
It's called 2600V, and as I've done with my previous reviews of Arturia's software emulations, I put it up against the original hardware synth to see just how close the emulation was. It's the fourth software-based emulated synth to emerge from Arturia, and as with their previous emulations, it aims to produce a sound as close as possible to that of the hardware instrument, whilst also sympathetically extending the original's feature-set with more modern facilities such as polyphony and MIDI capabilities. This month, we'll look at the first of these. But perhaps this is about to change, with the almost simultaneous release of two ARP 2600 software synths. Nevertheless, the bias toward Moog survives to this day, as demonstrated by the host of digital imitations of the Minimoog. With no Moog equivalent, this combined pre-patched synthesis with the flexibility of a modular synth, all housed in a neat suitcase that didn't need a pair of roadies and a transit van to move it from one gig to the next.
#Arturia minimoog v original pro
Sure, you could compare the Minimoog and the Odyssey, but where were the equivalents to the wonderful Pro Soloist, the Axxe, and the Omni? The Satellite, the Micromoog and the Opus 3.? Give me a break. But apart from this and the original Taurus pedals, Moog's record was never better than patchy. We see how it fares up against the original. Arturia's 2600V at its maximum 1156-pixel height, with the 1601 sequencer emulation and keyboard visible.Ĭompleting the quartet of vintage synth emulations they began with Moog Modular V, Arturia's latest plug-in aims to reproduce the sound of the greatest semi-modular of them all, ARP's 2600.
