What's fantastic about this is that I don't think anybody has done a "from scratch" kind of video with the 2500 on TH-cam to date. It's also the 50th anniversary of the launch of the 2500 (or "Series 2000 Modular Studio Synthesizer") this Autumn too, so your timing is very fitting. I was eagerly chuckling with joy whilst watching because I had the exact same reactions you did when I got the unforgettable experience of a day with a 2500 last year. "They're sliders and not pins?!", "The sequencer clock runs into the audio range?" Etc. Sounds like nothing else doesn't it. Incredible synth. Also didn't know the influence of computer science on Dennis P Colin's 1047 multimode filter. I've got the paper too, so I feel embarrassed. He also designed the SEM filter for Tom Oberheim in case you didn't know. Anyway, I'm rambling but this was a beautiful video.
Dude, this means a lot to me! You ARP documentary showed me what is possible in our corner of TH-cam. Hopefully we can do something fun together in the future!
@@Hainbach Yes, the ARP documentary was a portal to another world thanks to the access I was so kindly granted. That period from 1964 - 1972 where a very small group of innovators defined the following decades is truly magical. Those synths feel like they have no rules or preconceptions. Moog and ARP are obviously major players there, but there's a bit less about Buchla and EMS out there. Apparently a Synthi 100 is being restored in the north of England with lottery funding. Hopefully that will happen. And yes, would love to do a collaboration at some point on some topic or piece of equipment.

I was having an absolutely garbage night at work with every press and computer breaking and giving me fits. Then I sat down with some tea and watched this video. Now I'm re-centered and calm. Thank you as always.
I saw the Canadian group Syninx in 1971. They had a fantastic 2500 with 2 wing cabinets. The sound was quadraphonic and the 2500 was the most amazing thing I had ever heard. Mesmerizing and fluid sound from all directions. A trip into timelessness. John Mills-Cockell was an extraordinary mad scientist making evocative sounds and soundscapes. A truly remarkable concert I will never forget. Since then the 2500 has been an even more important icon. Thank you so much for letting us into the inner sanctum once more. Cheers
I learned the basics of synthesis on a 1970 ARP 2500 when I studied Composition & Technology at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. At the time I thought it was cool because it was old and I knew Pete Townshend used one but I didn't grasp how special an experience that was until I was about to graduate.
What a treat to have an in-depth ARP 2500 demo. I've been dreaming of this instrument since the '70s. I've never laid eyes on one, but I do have a manual for one which I special ordered back in the day. Thanks so much for producing this high quality detailed demo!!!

Not sure of their current policy but the gear is all kept in working condition and playing is encouraged. I was able to do a residency there for a week a few years back. T.O.N.T.O is housed there as well, plus a gorgeous Synthi 100.
@@atarkus8 I believe a special case was made for it for the movie and the synth itself was put back in it's original casing after the shoot. That collection (Cantos Collection) is pretty well documented if you google it. (I could also be wrong though, just going by what the curators at Cantos/NMC have claimed)
Back in the late 1980's i had a Roland TR-808 drum machine and my best friend had an Alesis sampling keyboard. But I've always been impressed by how it was done old school in the 1970's. Very cool.
I now understand why so much of the old synth music has weird noises and lots of looping. It's easy to loop and making weird noises on these synths is loads of fun.
@@germansnowman But even if "sure instinct" sounds strange to us, it is the correct translation of Fingerspitzengefühl. If you look into this, there are mentions of sure instinct where it makes perfect sense in terms of the meaning of Fingerspitzengefühl.
I also had the opportunity in January to visit the Twee studio and play with the 2500 for a while, along with a number of other amazing instruments. It is a truly magical place and Hans and the rest of the crew are as welcoming as they are knowledgeable.
Thank you for this demo. The 2500 is my holy grail synth. This was like having a chance to go through the features my self. Awesome!!! Now I just need to book time at Willem Twee Studio for a month. :)
15:34 The way he sits back down and relaxed into the chair, it's like the Hainbach version of "stank face"; when you hear sounds you love so much that it pauses the world around you.
So nice to really get some depth on working with this amazing machine. What stands out to me are the filter sounds and the patching, which is actually identical to breadboard patching. This type of patching is directly understood by, and appeals to any electrical engineer. Very nice.
Fantastic! At around 6:00 it sounds like you are trying to balance the throttles, fuel-air mixture, and propellor pitches for the four engines of a Boeing B-29 Superfortress bomber. It must have felt that way too.
Bob I think i shut down the engine that WASNT on fire you're gonna have to put her down in that field over there. WAIT WHAT DO YOU MEAN IM THE BALL TURRET GUNNER?
Always new it had sliders still blows my mind that’s why they are notoriously prone to problems but so amazing. The wiring inside for these sliders is pretty silly.
I was always fascinated by synthesizers! First one I touched was in 1975. Analogue is amazing! Soon I will retire and my dream (as many I am sure hold) is melding analogue sound with mixed reality!
Wow, I got goosebumps watching as this brought back some sweet memories of my time at the CEM studio in Arnhem in the mid nineties. Spend many of my lunch breaks (extended long breaks, ha!) playing with their ARP 2500.
I'm just getting into synthesis. I've never even heard of this machine before now. But in reading this comment thread, I know how I must react if I ever see one IRL: "OMG! Sliders?!? I thought they were pins!" Then shit my pants and have a seizure.
We had a VCS3 in our theatre design department at art school in the mid 70s. At the weekend, a friend and I would get the keys and go and play with it. Unrelated to this activity, my tutor Jeffrey Camp had also been Brian Eno's tutor, and I met him just the one time. Looking back I wish we'd told him that another department had the same synth he'd used in Roxy Music's early days - perhaps he'd have given us a few tips!
Truly one of the greatest synths ever made. And seeing Hainbach in a video with one makes this the greatest day of the week! I don't think I would want to ever leave that room. I'm hoping in the future a good vst recreation will come out (please Arturia!). If not sadly the closest I'll get to one is my Elaine Radigue records. Great video as always
Is there anything to speak of in the architecture of current duplications of the 2600 and the Odyssey which has survived from the 2500? Additionally, is there a schedule for repairing this 2500? I can recall watching the China Syndrome and imagining the equipment in the control center of the nuclear plant being used to make music. That’s what comes to my mind when I look at this front panel.
thank you very much for sharing this . there is not soo much info on this unit around the web . i really like the idea of the patching system and it has never really reoccured ( even partially ) in other synthesizers

Wow, I always assumed those patch panels were pins - never realised they're actually sliders! Amazing machine, and I hope to have Behringer's clone of its simplified successor the 2600 one day.
I don't believe that I have ever seen a video like this before. There are wonderful programs and songs that are featured by various artists but never have I seen a breakdown of this instrument.
Oh yes! The patch I played on the VCS has the ring modulator engaged, which made it hard at first for me to join the fun. Now I know the architecture of that synth.
I have a TTSH ARP 2600 but I'm excited that Behringer are going to make a euro 2500. Just wish I had the money! In the 80's in a music shop called Chase in London Tottenham court road I once saw 2 wings of a 2500 for £1000 each. Granted that was comparatively a fair bit back then, but it wouldn't have been too out of reach. I sometimes wished I'd saved for at least one wing then because as you know the prices now are crazy & way beyond the means of mere mortals like me. I always thought those slider things were pots, but from viewing the Behringer it seems they are patch selectors?
What a real blessing to watch this, Hainbach...same thoughts: no pins, but slides! One day, hopefully, you'll enter the studios of Jean Michel Jarre and let yourself being informed by him than and give it all to us, the distant admirers! Sehr gut gemacht und danke sehr!
Like the way you're quieting down everything, "Hainbach style" when it's going a bit too teknoid🙏👍 And btw, me too, the first time I saw a picture of a 2500 (maybe Jarre's one?)

Good memories! In the '80s and early '90s this beast was standing in the CEM studio in Arnhem. I spend a lot of nights trying to understand all the funky functions. But I liked the Serge modular (sometimes in view on the left of them) even better. And the "Putney" is just sweet!
