Key Features
The Cherry Audio Pro Soloist is a powerful virtual instrument that takes the iconic monophonic analog synth from 1972 and enhances it with modern features. Designed by renowned developer Mark Barton, this synth goes beyond mere emulation, offering full programmability and expanded capabilities.
With its dual-layer voicing architecture, the Pro Soloist allows you to use two different presets simultaneously, creating rich stereo timbres and layered sounds. It also supports split keyboard mode and can simulate polyphonic aftertouch with a monophonic aftertouch controller, giving you even more expressive performance possibilities.
The three-panel interface of the Pro Soloist provides easy access to its extensive set of features. In Performance mode, the original paddle presets are recreated and can be mapped to MIDI switches. In Edit mode, you have full control over the analog synthesis architecture, including the powerful five-bandpass filter "Resonator Bank" that adds realistic acoustic orchestra timbres.
The Pro Soloist also features a "Super Wave" oscillator and a six-slot modulation matrix for advanced sound design and performance possibilities. Additionally, it offers a syncable arpeggiator and a variety of studio-quality effects, including distortion, phaser, flanger/chorus, echo, and reverb. With full MIDI support, the Pro Soloist seamlessly integrates into your music production environment. Experience the timeless sound of the ARP synth with modern capabilities and unleash your creativity with the Cherry Audio Pro Soloist.

The Pro Soloist pays homage to the 1972 classic while pushing the boundaries of its capabilities. Featuring the same expressive controls, 30 infamous presets, and unique underlying architecture, this synth stays true to its prog rock roots. However, Cherry Audio takes it a step further by making the Pro Soloist fully programmable, expanding it with full polyphony, splits and layers, a mod matrix, integrated studio-quality effects, and more. Now, you can create soundscapes that will transport your music to new heights.
During the '70s, analog synthesizers were still a mystery to many, but ARP sought to make synthesis accessible to the masses. In 1972, ARP released the Pro Soloist, a groundbreaking analog preset synthesizer with digital read-only memory chips for improved tuning stability. It featured 30 presets and introduced the concept of aftertouch - pressing harder after playing a note to introduce changes in sound. The Pro Soloist quickly became popular for its ability to emulate lead instrument sounds, revolutionizing the world of music.
Cherry Audio has taken the Pro Soloist to the next level by introducing a dual-layer voicing architecture. With 16 polyphonic voices per layer and independent panning, you can create rich stereo timbres and complex layered sounds. The Pro Soloist also supports a split keyboard mode and the option to simulate polyphonic aftertouch with a monophonic aftertouch controller, giving you even more expressive performance capabilities. With these enhancements, your music will reach new depths and capture the essence of emotion.
You'll immediately recognize the distinctive three-panel interface of the Pro Soloist, but don't be fooled - this is no ordinary preset synth. In Performance mode, each original paddle preset has been precisely recreated with MIDI-mappable switches, allowing for seamless integration into your workflow. In Edit mode, you have access to all the unique analog synthesis architecture parameters, including the fully-variable, five parallel bandpass filter "Resonator Bank" that adds a touch of realism to your sounds.
The Pro Soloist also features LFO, ADSR/AR envelopes, a "Super Wave" oscillator, and a powerful six-slot modulation matrix, expanding your sound design and performance possibilities. To top it off, the Arp/FX mode offers a syncable arpeggiator and a dozen studio-quality effects, such as distortion, phaser, flanger/chorus, echo, and reverb. With its full MIDI support, the Pro Soloist is an essential tool for today's music production environments.
