Synthesizer fans looking to recreate those lush, soaring string ensemble sounds from the 70s disco era need to act fast. Behringer (via Thomann) is offering a limited-time deal on their Solina String Ensemble analog synthesizer – an authentic reproduction of the legendary ARP/Eminent Solina SE-II.
This multi-orchestral string machine packs an array of authentic tones including violin, viola, trumpet, horn, cello and double bass. The cello and bass parts are monophonic while the violin, viola, trumpet and horn are fully polyphonic thanks to octave division.
What really sets the Solina apart is its vintage chorus and phaser effects. The built-in multi-stage BBD chorus ensemble and Small Stone-style phase shifter let you dial in that classic shimmery, pulsating string tone that defined so many disco classics.
Other features include:
- 49-tone polyphony for rich ensemble textures
- Rate and color controls for tailoring the phaser effect
- Modulation inputs/outputs for integrating with other gear
- MIDI/USB implementation for modern studio use
- Removable housing for use as a Eurorack module
With an analog signal path inspired by the original 70s circuitry, the Behringer Solina captures the magic of this iconic string synthesizer at a fraction of the vintage cost. This is one of those times where string machine plugins are great, but if you can get a nice hardware emulation for such a bargain price, why not?
