"A look at the last monosynth ARP made, the Solus from 1980.
This is the least known of the trio (Odyssey, Axxe, Solus) because it was only made for a few months before ARP went out of business.

"Timber is a dual waveshaping module combining clipping and wave-folding circuits in a typically "Bastl Way" which combines some novel routing with utility that you wouldn't necessarily expect to find in a module of this type. It is also, in my opinion, Bastl's most underrated module as its ability to transform and animate a signal is huge considering its small size.
This video hopefully serves as half-video manual, half-sonic exploration of this module.
Transparency notice: the Basil module was provided to me by Bastl for free for the purposes of making content about it. I was not otherwise paid and Bastl did not request, nor were they given any editorial oversight."

"'Evolving Voice' is a collection of 64 sounds for Elektron Analog Four. Movement is the main focus of the soundset. The patches feature modulations that change the sound over time — whether slow or fast, tempo-synced or free-running, complex or simple. The bank of presets features various tones: soft, hard, metallic, vintage, modern, deep, bright, epic, acid, noisy, detuned, percussive, and others.
The pack includes: 33 Leads, 16 FXs, 15 Chords. The chords are not polyphonic; they utilize a single voice. The chords are crafted with oscillators tuned to different intervals. When you press a single key, you obtain a minor or major chord. You can transpose the chords using keys. Additionally, you may use Parameter Lock (changing oscillators in semitones) to switch between minor and major or vice versa to seamlessly fit a chord into a progression.
All presets are Velocity-sensitive and have ModWheel modulations.
The soundset is suitable for a wide range of genres: techno, house, deep, minimal, progressive, trance, ambient, electronica, IDM, trip-hop, lounge, downtempo, chill out, new age, cinematic, industrial, breakbeat, breaks, jungle, drum and bass, dub and many others.

"I have a Wavestation SR in my rack of 90s stuff, so thought it might be good to show how to program it. Or at least *try* to program it.
Edisyn - the PC/Mac editor I use later in the video can be found at https://github.com/eclab/edisyn
Korg's Legacy Collection or Wavestation plugin can be found in all sorts of places. I still haven't forgiven them for not being able to fix my MS20ic back in 2006... and have sadly been without an MS20 ever since 😢"
"Sadly I don't own any of the JP8K or Access Virus synths, so most of Ferry Corsten's output is out... as is Xpander!
Synths are the Nord Lead 2X, Roland JV1080, Moog Sub 37, Yamaha TX81Z, plus the Akai S3000XL. Sequencing is on the Squarp Hapax, reverb is from the Alesis Quadraverb."
