Yes, it does and it's made by Richard Brooks with synthedit. You have to export it as a VSTi tho'. Perhaps he does this to encourage people to get into synth making?

There is a pic and a link on my site, if you want to see the full picture of it? It even has the inverted delay that sounds great !!

Try Oddity, it's almost the real ARP-sound!

I tried Oddity.Maybe it is good Odissey clone, but not ARP 2600.At least I couldn't create some standart ARP 2600 sounds by playing with filter and resonance.
Mr.Me.I'm newbie into synthedit.What I must do?Download synthedit and import this *.se1 file and after that save result ast VSTi?

thanks,
o.

A lot of soft synths have that 2600 sound-the whole problem is that you don't have the flexibility in patching that makes a 2600 so cool.
If you're a Reaktor owner,there's a pretty good 2600 emulation in the users library that uses dropdowns for mod sources and destinations.The sound can get really close-an old partner of mine's had a 2600 for 25 years,and I've spent a lot of time mangling sounds with it,so I think I've got a reference point.

Well, VSTi it kind of might be not, but there are some really neat Reaktor 4 Arp synths up on NI's user library. Complete with authentic skins and all. Looks smashing and sounds smashing!

Try the Vaz Modular demo. Vaz has the Arp sound and the modular gives you a lot of routing flexability.

I second the VAZ Modular nomination.
