AM Music seems to have vanished again and was only 32bit. http://www.kvraudio.com/product/pro-sol ... technology
I know Urs doesn't like emulations, but this is one powerful monosynth really worth cloning (along with the Sequential Circuits Pro One). Much better than cramming new modules into DIVA which is pretty complete IMO.
Clone the Arp Pro Soloist?

Their plugins became free anyways. I got them all. Want?

The AM ProSolo is a nice imitation of the Pro Soloist, but if you listen to some even half decent examples of the real thing the gulf between them is pretty obvious. I'm not about to dump on AM Music's efforts, they did a very good job with the tools they had (Synthedit) -- but there are some things that make the Pro Soloist more difficult to recreate than the average synth.
Specifically, it had a unique way of generating its waveforms that bore more resemblance to a divide-down organ than a MiniMoog and it used a filter bank with harwired presets they called a resonator after the VCF/VCA stage. Along with all the touch responsive controls it makes the Pro Soloist one of those synths that looks simple but is really hard to actually nail in software form.
There's a nice article here that explains it better than I can.
It'd be interesting to see what Urs could come up with if he added a "resonator" module to Zebra (and/or Diva of course).

I don't use a Mac, so... no. Sorry.
There are no .SEM files anywhere with those DLLs, which leads me to believe they weren't using SynthEdit... They also had Mac versions, which SE can't do.jPod wrote:I'm not about to dump on AM Music's efforts, they did a very good job with the tools they had (Synthedit)
