The TimewARP 2600 is a perfect emulation of the classic ARP 2600 analog synthesizer—and the only one endorsed by the original instrument’s creator, Alan R. Pearlman.

TimewARP 2600 is a virtual vintage voltage-controlled synthesizer.

In addition to faithful replication of every original feature, the TimewARP 2600 features up to 8-voice polyphony and extremely sophisticated velocity and aftertouch control.

Mapping of MIDI controller parameters to sliders, knobs and switches is virtually unlimited, putting an unprecedented amount of control at your fingertips. And even though you can create incredibly complex sounds with the TimewARP 2600, the unit’s comprehensive preset manager ships with hundreds of patches to get you started.

Standalone or RTAS, VST, and AU host operation on Mac and Windows makes this gem the ideal addition to your sound—whether as a synthesizer or a unique signal processor.

Here are some key features of "TimewARP 2600":
faithful emulation of original ARP 2600 features and sound
unlimited MIDI assignment of all controls to MIDI controllers
up to eight instantiations for up to eight voice polyphony
extensive patch manager and factory sounds
standalone or RTAS/VST/AU operation on Mac and Windows.
