Cherry Audio Pro Soloist User Guide - 1
At the beginning of the 70s, analog synthesizers were just making their way
into the hands of working musicians, and their operation was still something
of a mystery to most folks outside of a college music lab. In order to avert
potential user intimidation and bring synthesis to the masses, manufacturers
including Moog, Elka, and later Roland and Yamaha, produced simple
monophonic preset synths, intended to sit atop an organ. ARP's first foray
into the organ-top preset lead synth market was the Soloist, released in
1970, with 18 presets and basic controls.
Soon thereafter in 1972, the ARP Pro Soloist was released. With much-
improved tuning stability, and now featuring 30 presets, it expanded the
Soloist's feature set to include an innovative "touch sensor" keyboard -
what's now commonly known as a aftertouch, where pressing harder after
playing a note introduces changes in the sound, allowing highly expressive
playing. Specifically, the Pro Soloist's touch sensor controls enabled pitch
bend, wow (wah), growl (a sax-like rapid filter mod), brilliance, volume, and

vibrato. This was pretty heady stuff in the early 70s, and the Pro Soloist
proved popular with touring and recording musicians for its ability to rapidly
emulate lead instrument sounds such as horns, strings, woodwinds, and
more. Most notably, Genesis' Tony Banks made use of a Pro Soloist on
numerous tracks of their seminal release, "The Lamb Lies Down on
Broadway."
With the advent of fully-programmable, polyphonic synths such as the
Prophet-5 and Oberheim OB-series synths at the end of the 70s, preset
monophonic instruments like the Pro Soloist rapidly fell by the wayside. But
other than Yamaha's pricey CS-series poly synths, aftertouch wouldn't be
seen again in instruments until the advent of the 80's MIDI instrument era.
Here at Cherry Audio, we've had frequent requests to reproduce this oft-
forgotten expressive gem of a synth, particularly Genesis connoisseurs! Our
frequent collaborator Mark Barton is one of those folks, and not only has he
programmed an incredibly accurate emulation (including spot-on emulations
of the original presets), but together we've massively expanded the Pro
Soloist's capabilities by making it fully polyphonic (up to 16 voices), AND
we've "brought out" all of the parameters of its unique analog synthesis
architecture, most notably, the five parallel bandpass filter "Resonator Bank,"
(these are the key to the Pro Soloist's realistic acoustic orchestra timbres)
allowing full user programmability. Additionally, we've added a full six-slot
mod matrix, and studio-quality effects - converting this somewhat bare
bones monophonic lead synth into a massive, polyphonic powerhouse.
We've been pleasantly surprised at the stunning sounds we've been able to
coax from this hot-rodded Pro Soloist; we hope you'll enjoy it as much as we
do.
Pre-Purchase Demo Mode
If you haven't purchased the full version of Pro Soloist, it will run in demo
mode. All functions will work, but inharmonic tones will occasionally sound
(the LED next to
Demo
in the top toolbar will illuminate when the ugly tones
are sounding). We've also added a handy button to make purchasing easy, so
you've got no excuse! As you might expect, all the demo stuff disappears
once Pro Soloist is purchased.
