Solcito Musica has introduced a new virtual vintage orchestral synthesizer instrument that is inspired by the legendary Eminent/Arp Solina hardware synthesizer.
Sporting a monophonic “Solo” oscillator and polyphonic “Orchestra” oscillator, Solinoid models sounds in a vintage analog style using the typical ways of the 1970s-1980s to achieve them.
The synth features an ensemble chorus effect with vintage BBD emulation and various controls were added to the traditional model to expand the sound possibilities of the synth.
A goal of this VSTi is to make string ensembles in a vintage way. It exploit the capabilities of that old technology, whose charm continues captivating over the years despite its limitations. With those resources, Solinoid also generates an additional variety of sounds.
Another goal is to show the sensation of spatiality of the ensemble effect despite being monoural. That is why this VSTi has a mono output, like the evoked original. The user can add stereo effects to it, if preferred.
The plugin is a free download for Windows in VST/VST3 formats.
