Absynth 2 is a semi-modular synthesizer combining multiple synthesis techniques. It has been replaced by Absynth 3, although they can be separately used.

Now in its third generation, the award-winning synthesizer continues to build on its untouchable reputation. From futuristic synths to rhythmic mayhem, vintage sounds to ambient layers and completely unique, alien soundscapes – Absynth 3 seduces with sublime sounds. The possibilities offered by its semi-modular architecture and powerful, unique features stretch well beyond the boundaries of existing synthesizers, creating an extremely diverse spectrum of amazing sounds.

Based on ARP's legendary semi-modular analog monosynth! This amazing softsynth sounds very close to the original ARP 2600. Like the original, it's a monosynth (no polyphony). But also like the original, it has many Frequency Modulation options which enable it to create some truly weird sound effects. PWM, Sample & Hold, virtual Spring Reverb, Ring Modulation, and a dedicated Noise Generator are all there! Unfortunately, the Arppe2600va does not have virtual patch cords, so it is not patchable like the original synth (it only exists in the "pre-wired" state). But even a pre-wired 2600 will pretty much be able to produce nearly all of the classic ARP synth sounds from the 70s and beyond. All controls are mapped to MIDI CC#'s, and you can override the default settings by using the MIDI Learn feature. Use as a simple stand-alone synth (.exe file included), or copy the DLL into your favorite DAW or sequencer's plugin folder.
