The most iconic synth for the Modern musician

The genuine ARP 2600 in a more convenient size.

The ARP 2600 is arguably the most iconic and recognizable synthesizer of all time. Having been used in countless records, film scores, TV shows and game soundtracks since its appearance from the 70’s through to today, the ARP 2600’s sound remains an essential part of the music world.

The new ARP 2600 M delivers the sound admired around the world , in a more compact and portable format and including added features that make it the ideal incarnation of this historic synth.

A legend, reborn

When Korg ARP 2600 FS was announced in January 2020 it quickly became a phenomenal success, with musicians all over the world recognizing the faithfulness to the original ARP 2600. ARP 2600 M is roughly 60% the original’s size, making it lighter, more portable and easier to integrate into your studio. It uses the same analog circuitry and components as ARP 2600 FS, faithfully reproducing the characteristic ARP sound; even the spring reverb has been re-engineered and adapted to the new size body for the same lush effect.

One Instrument, two flavors

The ARP 2600 M is available in two different editions(*). Both include the same iconic ARP 2600 M instrument, a dedicated Carry Case and a set of exclusive ARP stickers.

This ARP 2600 M (Standard Edition) suitcase comes in an ARP reminiscent black, and does not include a microkey2-37.

A must-have in the studio

It is not by chance that the ARP 2600 has been so extremely popular to this day.
More than a synthesizer, the ARP 2600 M is a complete sound design studio. Even today, the ARP 2600 stands as a bridge between the individual elements of modular synthesis and the immediacy of a production / performance instrument.

Included are an ample supply of oscillators, envelopes, a filter and amplifier – all of the building blocks of analog synthesis. But the ARP 2600 M goes even further, with a spring reverb tank and a pair of built-in monitor speakers. Also present is much of the versatility of a vintage modular system, including a ring modulation, lag and voltage processors, an envelope follower, audio preamp, a clock-able switch, noise source, a sample-and-hold module, signal inverters, an auxiliary mixer, and even a set of parallel-wired/multi jacks.

Added features and functionality

The new ARP 2600 M is not only faithful to the original, it also includes an array of added features that will make it even easier to use:

– Plug and play: Connect any class compliant MIDI controller such as a KORG microKeys, nanokeys or SQ-64 to one of the ARP 2600 M’s USB ports (USB-A and USB-B) and automatically get full control of your instrument!

– Resized: The new size makes it easier to visualize your patch and also allows you to use shorter patch cables

– Two types of filters from two versions of the original ARP 2600(4012 type, 4072 type DIN MIDI IN added

– Pitch-bend, Modulation and Portamento ON/OFF can be controlled through MIDI CC messages (USB/DIN MIDI)

– Normalized voltage: The threshold of the trigger signal required to activate the ADSR through the S/H GATE JACK has become 5V, making it much easier to use in combination with other gear such as volcas or Eurorack modules

– Improved Attack and Release time ratios

– L/R Stereo Output Jack (instead of XLR)

– Speakers turn automatically off when using headphones

– Improved, smoother sliders

Free bundle of music software

The ARP 2600 M comes with a diverse variety of music software from Izotope including “Ozone Elements” which lets you not only create songs but also master them using AI, “Skoove” which will help you improve your keyboard playing skills, “Reason Lite” DAW software, as well as software synths from KORG and other brands.

In other words, the moment you get your hands on this synthesizer you’ll have a variety of tools to help you take your music to the next level.
