Solinoid is a virtual orchestral synthesizer inspired by the classic Eminent/Arp Solina hardware synth from the 1970s and 1980s. It recreates the rich and warm tones of vintage string ensembles using authentic sound generation methods from that era. Designed to capture the nostalgic charm of these iconic instruments, Solinoid brings the unique character of vintage orchestral sounds into a modern digital environment.
The synthesizer features a monophonic 'Solo' oscillator alongside a polyphonic 'Orchestra' oscillator, allowing for intricate layering and dynamic performances. Its architecture includes three filters and an LFO, providing flexibility in shaping the sound while maintaining the vintage aesthetic. A keyboard split function further enhances playability, making it suitable for complex arrangements and live use.
A standout aspect of Solinoid is its Ensemblex chorus effect, which emulates the classic Bucket Brigade Device circuitry typical of vintage delay and chorus units. This effect enriches the sound with lush modulation, expanding the traditional ensemble model with additional controls to broaden its sonic palette. Beyond string ensembles, Solinoid leverages these vintage technologies to create a variety of other sounds, giving producers a distinctive tool for authentic retro textures.
