"Near Mint (9.5/10) ARP/Eminent SE-IV (SE1) String Ensemble for sale. Works perfectly. Full Polyphony (divide down). Has been heard on countless recordings from 1974-now. This unit is in the best condition I have seen/owned over 30 years - this was the unit I kept for my own collection, but, due to moving, I have to let all my keyboards go... It would be tough to find one close to this condition again."

"It has a unique, bit less reverb-y ensemble modulation compared the model 2's, which means it's drier, with more bite, more manageable in the mix and performs better through effects pedals, AMAZING through a phaser...."

"Pointless ramming across my old detuned eminent organ. Be aware not to enjoy this at all. The cat liked it. Perhaps some freaks out there who might think this is cool. For those braves, god bless and thank you for watching."

How to Build Your Very Own String Synth with DSP Synthesizers Codename Solina

You might remember DSP Synthesizers Codename Solina. If you'd like to build your own, you'll find instructions on how to do so on the DSP Synthesizers site here.

"The Eminent Solina is a fameous string synthesizer from the 70’s. It is based on a paraphonic oscillator, a simple envelope and a phaser.

The oscillators in the original was a divide down structure where you generate the frequencys for the top octave and divide those down by modulo 2 for the rest of the octaves.

We can’t really use a signal for every key so we use an alogorithm for generating 8 Saw waves and distribute those among the keys played on the keyboard.

Paraphonic means it’s kind of polyphonic but shares some parts of the soundpath. In this case it’s the envelope shared by all the keys played on the keyboard..." See DSP Synthesizers for more.

playing around with the eminent 1600 orchestra organ

Published on Jan 15, 2016 grauoliv

"Okay, so here is my second organ from eminent, netherlands. It's the 1600 orchestra, with a detailled string organ section. '8, '4 and '8 sustain for upper and lower keyboard, '16 and '8 for the pedal. And also string ensemble for the accompaniment section. Very sad, by now the string section is broken. I have an endless note when turning it up ... :-(
As my home has already one organ, this one stands in my office. It must have gotten wet sometime over the years, so it's also a littel bit stinky ...."
