# ARP Pro Soloist
“Selling this super rare Arp Soloist model 2700 synthesizer in 100% functional condition!
This Synthesizer has been produced by Arp in the early seventies in between the Arp 2500 and first 2600 and is believed to be the first ever preset synthesizer!
It has a rare original unmodified 4027 VCO module (predecessor to the 4027-1) and a original unmodified 4012 transistor ladder filter same as in the Arp 2600.
The VCO in this Soloist could in theory be tracked full scale by CV (after a easy modification) opposed to the later Pro Soloist that has a scaled down VCO module.
This Soloist has a aftertouch mod by Saint Eric (specially developed for this unit) and i believe it is the only Soloist in the world with functional aftertouch!
I believe this Soloist to be fully hand build by Arp and probably by Alan Pearlman and his first team. It is a remarkable piece of Arp history.
This Soloist service list reads like this:
Aftertouch has been repaired with special modification.
Power supply has been changed to 220v.
Sliders have been cleaned
One switch has been repaired.
Tuning modification on the inside.
This is a great instrument with a lovely sound and a very good aftertouch response!!
It comes with a nice contemporary case.
Overall condition is good, both Saint Eric and me agree that this is a very rare machine!
Pictures are of actual item.
Feel free to ask any questions.
Item runs on 220V.” Link
