As an owner of an original, this is actually quite appealing and sounds like they've really nailed the sound. The addition of MIDI and the phaser are welcome and the compact size a boon as the Eminent Solina String Ensemble weighs an absolute tonne and isn't the sturdiest traveler. It's crazt to think that a top-octave divider string machine is being mass produced in 2023, but nothing else quite captures that effect.
The original Solina String Ensemble had a single high-frequency master oscillator. This went through a divide-down circuit to generate the top 12 semitones, which then went through more divide down circuits to generate a tone for each individual key. Each of those was transformed into a sawtooth wave so you literally have full polyphony - every key can play at once, there is literally one hardware voice per key. One of the best parts about this design is that as long as the master oscillator is in tune, the entire instrument is always in tune - every key/voice. The various "instruments" were done with fixed filters that were switched in and out. I don't know if the Behringer version works the same way, but I would be surprised if it didn't.
Saw is "stair-saw" - multiple octaves mixed in in descending proportions. This is the reason top-most notes sound so... punchy. Square-like punchy. I never used Solina, but I've used Elektronika EM04 which is VERY CLOSE. A clone probably. I instantly recognized THAT ensemble sound. Very unique, though cannot be layer too much, as each new track with this effect creates dirt and more modulation, whereas chord with this effect gets glued together. Though it has sliders for each voice and some sort of Moog filter on brass. It weights about 25 kg. I sampled it once, then it went into storage. Can't think of any bad thing about the synth in review. Its a string machine with midi, what else would you want from life?
@@erlannderrantem6972 The master oscillator is a high frequency (well above the highest note) and a chip was used that divides it down using counters to get the 12 semitones. I don’t know if these chips are still made or maybe Behringer cloned it, or recreated it using a DSP, microcontroller, or maybe a FPGA but once you have that top octave, the lower octaves are simply divide-by-2 circuits cascaded on each note of the top octave.

I knew the sound from this thing is classic, and videos like this prepared me for the real deal, but it still just about knocked my socks off when I got one and switched it on through an amp.
"Oh it was gorgeousness and gorgeosity made flesh. The trombones crunched redgold under my bed, and behind my gulliver the trumpets three-wise silverflamed, and there by the door the timps rolling through my guts and out again crunched like candy thunder.

Starsky, I just just wanna say *THANK-YOU* for mentioning Parliament and Stevie Wonder among the users of the original ARP/Solina String Ensemble. You are the first and only I have seen do so. (Now if we can just get Ohio Players in there. 🤣 Check out their _HONEY_ album. ) Excellent review as always... 👋👋👋👋👋
Thanks for the memories. I had a Solina and this sounds like it. The Solina was built like a tank and weighed about as much as one. You wouldn't want to gig with it (although, I occasionally did).
Good Lordy, it's alive!!! I've always had a soft-spot in my heart for vintage string machines, so this I most certainly will purchase as soon as it becomes available. Enjoyed your presentation very much. Thank you!!!
As soon as I saw the thumbnail, I knew exact what the sound you were referring to. This is a nice sounding machine but I think I miss my Waldorf Streichfett, what I paid new for it and sold it for the same will be the same as the Solina. Just feel that you get more from a Streichfett even though it's VA. I sold mine due to having been a little heavy handed in my tracks with it, meaning that suddenly I was using it too much, but now I miss it too much. Can never win lol. Thx for the upload, still sounds great.
I'll buy it, for sure 😍. This sound is in my memory since the 70s. You should have mentioned Jean Michel Jarre in the introduction, because, with the phaser, it's his signature (even if he uses an Eminent which is the elder brother of the Solina).
I remember having a conversation with a music shop employee in the early 90s about string machines- the dude was convinced they were "obsolete" as string machines don't have envelopes and filters for every key. I said to him that he just didn't get it- string machines have their own sound, their own vibe. The French Duo Air proved me right a few years later on Moon Safari.
Nice one! If Behringer could also clone the Korg Trident, Lamdba ES-50 and Sigma KP-30 it would be amazing! String-Synthesizers are extremely underrated IMHO
Thank you so much for your feedback and good news! Bright, joyful and sad timbre... Perhaps this is a turning point in the creation of modern music, when technology has eaten techno, and ambient is like noodles hanging from our ears. The space opera is back!
I have to say, Behringer really makes great String Machines. There are a few "obscure" string machines that i would love to see on the market. Finger crossed for the Crumar Performer (it was used on the last Depeche Mode record).
@@jrodohio So what, I'd rather see great recreations of classic musical apparatuses than some stupid electronic sequencer passin' itself off as a keyboard based synth.
Back in the 80s and 90s I would dream about having a Solina on top of my Rhodes along with an ARP Odyssey or ProSoloist... I loved all those jazz funk disco tunes from bands like T Connection, Lonnie Liston Smith, Azymuth et al and the music I was making was in that realm. Finally found an original Solina in 2000s just wonderful... very heavy and I was alway worried something would happen to it so sold it on... This sounds like a very good recreation but I have no idea how I would use this today in the music I do...
@@jrodohio Thats been their way ever since they started. They litterally copied Mackie mixers and other stuff and sold it for half the price and didn't care about the lawsuits 😂At least with many of their synth products they got a bit smarter as many of those companies do not exist anymore, so most of their copyrights is gone (or ran out), unless some of them got sold before they went belly up. And about their Digital mixers they didn't design those either, they just baught up Midas. But some of their own products is actually pretty cool, they just have way to many ideas and projects that never gets finished or is only half finished when the come out and never gets fixed before they abondon them.
That's brilliant. It sounds just like the 70s stringers. Built in phaser and in/outs is well thought through, too. Nice contrasting thing to have in your arsenal and whilst I love originals, they are comically large and heavy.
I ended up selling the Streichfett and getting a Solina, so I can kind of answer my own question here. In retrospect, the Streichfett is more flexible, with the way you can continuously blend the different sounds rather than just on/off buttons, and with the onboard reverb, you can get a variety of sounds bigger and broader than a basic string synth. However, if you have a nice reverb or delay you can get those bigger sounds anyway. The Solina is easier to dial in "that sound" that you're looking for from the 70s, and that's what I'm mainly interested in, so for me the Solina works better. The one thing I really miss from the Streichfett is stereo output from the modulation. Yes you can add stereo effects to widen up the sound, but there's nothing quite like having the different components of the modulation effect separated in stereo. I wonder if it's possible to mod the Solina for stereo modulation?
I’ve wanted a Solina for YEARS and I’m a huge fan of early Air. This nails the sound and i need it in my life 😭 I am surprised it isnt stereo out, I thought the original was
It wasn‘t. The organs had a stereo headphone output and a three channel amp output. Only the last version from 1983 had a stereo line output, but it did sound a little bit weaker than the mono versions. I can tell, because I own both and an Eminent 2000 GT😅 Greetings from Germany🇩🇪🤝
@@patriciaoudart1508 Hmm, most musicians have used it in this way, but there are also different examples of use as melody instrument. Monsieur Jarre, Michael Garrison or Klaus Wunderlich (he used the Hohner String Melody on his great LP „Dream Concerto“ and later the strings on his Wersi Organs). Or Listen to „Avanti“ from „Cluster“👋
Cool to see the Finnish disco dance moves of the lehendary, late Åke Blomqvist get some international recognition! But seriously, I had somehow missed Behringer has cloned Solina as well. Gotta check on it!
Sounds awesome! I hope to get one. I guess I have been mispronouncing it in my head for decades whenever I read gear credits on classic albums. I always thought it was a “So-Lean-ah.” Great job on the proper demo! Behringer should just hire you to do ALL THEIR DEMOS. Some of their product demos by third parties have been rushed and terrible.
We’re so used to being able to get things to sound good, you forget that some things don’t require any effort. Plug it in and hey presto. This is what you get, no Fx, no EQ just niceness.
spot on it does have a clockwork orange vibe that sound.... i did write this synth off when i saw it but having watched this i reckon theres actually tonnes of practical stuff you could use it on unlike a lot of synths
It's awesome they included I/O for the chorus effect. That effect would make anything sound amazing. I'm curious what it would sound like to plug a mic into it and "Solinafy" your voice.
Edge apart, I love your ,channel. Second time I listen to this video. Thank to show how you extinct the 'table top' illness about putting rear connectors despite we buy expanders because we have plenty of keyboards, and they get semi modular, so, never we have a table to let them every day. I have a deepmind 12D, no manner to put it near my other 19" in eurorack, as using corned connectors. Amazing making such an error as the instrument is fine. I will buy it. You tittle is accurate, but space for me is in music as Classic, this hability to render space with strings and of course our listening is culturally adapted to imagine the church space for an organ. In birds singing, you have also this wet sound Giving a dynamic to the space created. That's why so talented musicians used such an instrument, not to imitate Bach or Beethoven, but by having studied how sound culture works, how our ear listening to the space around. I fave on my Jupiter 50 sounds like that, but this is not the same , as listening on a video nothing can replace harmonics from real oscillators and analogic solutions. So, Behringer is able for the best as the vomiting things. Hope the pro 800 will be Son of this race🙏💚🧡👍

That is THE classic sound of the 70's... a musical instrument so ubiquitous, that it almost deserves its own category.

It's Eminent (Dutch) actually. Arp didn't design this one

I have a deepmind 12D, no manner to put it near my other 19" in eurorack, as using corned connectors. Amazing making such an error as the instrument is fine. I will buy it.
You tittle is accurate, but space for me is in music as Classic, this hability to render space with strings and of course our listening is culturally adapted to imagine the church space for an organ. In birds singing, you have also this wet sound Giving a dynamic to the space created. That's why so talented musicians used such an instrument, not to imitate Bach or Beethoven, but by having studied how sound culture works, how our ear listening to the space around. I fave on my Jupiter 50 sounds like that, but this is not the same , as listening on a video nothing can replace harmonics from real oscillators and analogic solutions. So, Behringer is able for the best as the vomiting things. Hope the pro 800 will be Son of this race🙏💚🧡👍
After hearing this, and the arturia plug, I don't feel so bad about selling my original at 100+ lbs
Wow. Will buy this for sure
