Eminent SOLINA Mark I - String Ensemble Demo


Published on Aug 22, 2014 Nicolas Labatut

“Herbie Hancock, George Clinton and Eumir Deodato. Elton John used an ARP String Ensemble on his hit song 'Someone Saved My Life Tonight', The Rolling Stones in their hit Fool To Cry, The Buggles in 'Video Killed the Radio Star' and Rick James used it in his song 'Mary Jane'. In 1975, George Harrison used the ARP on his song 'You' and the same year The Bee Gees played it on their hit 'Nights on Broadway'. Stevie Wonder played the famous string line on Peter Frampton's 1977 ballad 'I'm In You'. The Solina string sound has also been used by Kim/Ricky Wilde, Pink Floyd, The Cure, The Chameleons, Joy Division, Neil Young and Crazy Horse, and Air.”

Oxygene Memotron


Uploaded on Jun 7, 2008 WaxApul

"When I was looking to buy a Memotron I was surprised at the lack of videos on YouTube actually showing off this beast. For those of you who don't know, the Memotron is a replica Mellotron made by Manikin Electronics in Germany.

Anyway, I bought one and fell in love with it. This is a very simple and quick demo of the unit showing you three sounds, Eminent Strings, Flute and Genesis 8 Choir.

I have played the sounds in a Jarre Style, from Oxygene 1 and Oxygene 2. The Eminent strings are routed through a Boss DD3 pedal and Small Stone.

The Memotron comes with one CD of sounds called Vintage Collection 1, however, I have an extra CD called Vintage Collection 2 which contains 12 more sound sets for the Memotron including two sets of sounds from the Eminent 310U Organ, the signature JMJ sound.

In the mean time have a look at my myspace page for a few more tracks:

Solina String-Ensemble MK4 SN 227248

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

"classic Solina String-Ensemble MK4, the latest version with stereo outputs and led's in the knobs...

The Solina String Ensemble, like a few other ARP products, is not actually an ARP invention. The Solina was created by the Dutch company Eminent in 1974. It was derived from the string section of Eminent's 310U Organ, and sold commercially as the Eminent Solina String Ensemble. ARP bought the rights to re-brand the Solina for the US market as the ARP String Ensemble. There were also four versions: SE-I was monoaural with a permanent chorus effect, SE-II added an on/off switch for the chorus effect, SE-III added stereo sound, and SE-IV added LEDs."

Comparison between two Solina String Ensembles


Published on Dec 28, 2013 The Laboratory of Sound·2 videos

"Several versions of the Solina String Ensemble were made by the Dutch organ building company Eminent (the SSE's were rebranded ARP in the USA). There appears to be quite some discussion about which version of the SSE sounds better. When both an early version (Mk1) and a later version (Mk4) came in at the same time for service, I couldn't resist doing a side by side comparison. The top one is the Mk4 version with LEDs in the push buttons, the bottom one is the Mk1 version. I was just fiddling around a bit, but tried to play the same tunes alternating between the Mk1 and Mk4. At all times, the settings on each unit are identical. At approximately 2:20 the four upper voices are played one by one without the ensemble effect. If you can stand watching the video until the end, you will see in the upper left corner of the video frame some smoke escaping from the Mk4. The smoke was accompanied by a strong smell of burning electronics. As soon as I noticed I switched off the Solina's (you will hear a plopping noise). It turned out that one of the caps in the power supply had burst. After recapping the power supply the unit was in full working order again.
The Solina's were both recorded in mono (the Mk4 can do stereo as well) using an API Channel Strip and Lynx Hilo converters. Despite the conversion for Youtube there are clear differences between the Mk1 and Mk4. Up to you to decide which one you prefer."

kingdom melody on synthesizers

Published on Nov 24, 2013 Kingdom Melodies·13 videos

"Kingdom melody played on different analog (string) synthesizers with diashow."

I'm guessing the synths used in order are the ones pictured starting with the EMS Synthi for noise swashes, Eminent 310 for percussion and organs, KORG Poly-61 for fx, and the Eminent 310 again for the string ensemble. A KORG monotribe and Roland Juno-106 with full on custom wood case also show up in the video.

Kingdom melody 17

Published on Nov 20, 2013 Kingdom Melodies·12 videos

"Me in the dark shed (the organ lights looks better that way!) in the backyard a few years ago with some old (or 'vintage') electronic instruments.
After around 30 video/audio takes playing the melody with foulds, this was the end result.

[Details:
The drums, basspedal and chord parts (with phaser) are also from the same 1972 Dutch organ called: ' Eminent 310 '.
The synthesizer on top of the organ is the ' EMS synthi A ' (UK 1971) adding some wind and bubbling effect sounds... ]"

I Feel Love - cover on SCI Pro One and Korg ESX


Published on Jan 8, 2013 Babyblue57·48 videos

"Electronic epiphany of Giorgio Moroder/ Donna Summer's I Feel Love perfomed on:

Sequential Circuits Pro One ( sequenced bass line) internal sequencer synced & triggered from Korg ESX audio out. ProOne out sent thru a Boss Chorus CE2B, Boss Flanger FB2, Boss Digital Delay DD7 and finally a Boss Digital Reverb RV5 pedal fx.
Korg ESX drum sequence & alt bass line.
Emu Emax 1 loaded with own Eminent 310 string sample thru an EHX Small Stone phaser pedal.

There were no keyboard perfomances, just the occasional pressing of a button."

Drawing of the Eminent 310/Solina String Ensemble Factory in the 1970s

via Ernst Hill on
The MATRIXSYNTH Lounge
"The Eminent 310/Solina String Ensemble factory in the Netherlands during the seventies. Drawing printed on the back of the warranty certificate."

"If you call Eminent today and ask them about the 310 etc they will hang up the phone and say "go away with that Jarre Devils music..."
True or not?   You be the judge.
