ARP Quartet

“The ARP Quartet was a rebadged Siel Orchestra – a very versatile analog 49 note polyphonic synthesizer from 1979.

Mix and match between any combination of the four tone color families (Brass, String, Organ, Piano), eight instrument presets (Trumpet, Trombone, Cello, Violin, Organ, Celeste, Piano, and Honky Tonk), and several settings that are available depending on your combination of instrument families.

One cap is missing from the Brass Attack slider. There are dings in the paint and wear on the wooden end panels (see photos).

The synth works well, though the volume slider and Brilliance slider (in the brass section) could benefit from a cleaning.” Click here to visit listing on eBay

ARP Quartet

” ARP Quartet Polyphonic Analogue Synthesizer

A very versatile analogue 49 note polyphonic synthesizer from 1980.

While the settings may look fairly simple, a complex array of sounds can be created via different combinations of presets, an LFO, ADSR, and a two pole voltage controlled filter.

Mix and match between any combination of the four tone colour families (Brass, String, Organ, Piano), eight instrument presets (Trumpet, Trombone, Cello, Violin, Organ, Celeste, Piano and Honky Tonk) and several settings that are available depending on your combination of instrument families:

– ADSR – Attack, Sustain, Brass Attack & Brass Sustain
– LFO – Vibrato & Vibrato Speed
– VCF – Brilliance
– Delay Line – Percussion & Solo

In overall very good physical condition considering the age (manufactured between 1979-80).

This is a rare synthesizer with a unique sound.
Understandably- due to age- it does not have many functions and features of later synths.
Please do your research before purchasing.

All functions working.” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“ARP Quartet Analog Synthesizer up for sale. This Quartet is in fantastic working condition and it looks great! The instrument has been fully serviced and tested by our professional technician, and is backed by our 3-month warranty.

The ARP Quartet is, in fact, identical to the Italian-made Siel Orchestra. ARP bought, relabeled and sold it as the Quartet without changing much. It’s a 4-part orchestral synthesizer with 4 sections: Brass, Strings, Organ and Piano. These 4 tone color families can be tweaked and played individually or two can be played simultaneously. Selected presets will light up LEDs to show you which sliders and buttons can be used to modify the current section. The synth itself is somewhat limited–there is no external control, no pitch/mod wheel and few editing parameters. However, it sounds very good and, ultimately, it is a classic analog synthesizer.

In very good working shape, with some normal cosmetic signs of use (see photos). ”

ARP Quartet

“Hello there! Cleaning house a fair amount, and pardon the terrible pics this keyboard is in the store room right now. This Quartet is completely functional and all keys were sounding when I last played it about a year ago or so. The biggest things to note are general scuffing on the wood ears, the power supply has a small crack in the outer red plastic (though that doesn’t effect the synth’s ability to operate of course), and the volume slider appears to have been bypassed in favor of a little potentiometer sitting to the right of the slider. I imagine that linear pot probably wore out and someone didn’t want to bother with a 1:1 replacement.” Click here to visit listing on eBay

ARP Quartet

“I have owned this ARP Quartet from new and it has been well looked after and the condition of the wooden and metal casing and paintwork is very good for the age. It has always been stored in its original box but the box is looking very worn now. There is a small area of flaked off paint on the rear of the keyboard that is visible in one of the photos. The sound is very good but there are two issues that i can see that you might want to get sorted if you purchased the keyboard. The volume slider dosen’t adjust the volume any longer so i adjust the volume via my amp so i have never bothered to get it fixed. All sounds and effects work except for the celest on the organ section. The slider has come loose and the celest sound is permanently off. This might need a new switch fitting.”
