ARP 2600 M Synthesizer

Modelled after the iconic 1971 ARP 2600, the ARP 2600 M brings this legendary semi-modular synthesizer back to life in a compact, portable format that retains all the analog character of the original. Produced in collaboration with ARP Instruments, this reimagined edition captures approximately 60% of the original instrument's footprint while preserving every core element that made the ARP 2600 a cornerstone of synthesis history.

Authentic Analog Signal Path

The ARP 2600 M features the same fundamental architecture as the original: a fully analog signal path with voltage-controlled oscillators, a voltage-controlled filter, a voltage-controlled amplifier, and dedicated envelope generators. Two selectable filter circuits recreate the original 4012-type and 4072-type designs, allowing players to shape the sonic character from the original 1971 sound through to the revised circuit introduced in later revisions of the instrument.

Semi-Modular Flexibility

Like the original ARP 2600, the 2600 M operates without any patching required — internal normalized connections allow immediate sound design straight out of the box. At the same time, the full patch bay opens up limitless routing possibilities, enabling users to rewire the signal path, connect external gear, or build complex modular setups. Both 3.5 mm and ¼" jacks are provided for broad compatibility.

Spring Reverb and Built-In Speakers

An integrated spring reverb adds warmth and space to the sound, staying true to the original design. Built-in monitor speakers make it possible to play and experiment without external amplification, making the 2600 M equally suited to studio work and live performance.

Modern Connectivity

USB-A and USB-B ports provide MIDI connectivity for integration with computers, hardware sequencers, and other MIDI devices. The standard 5-pin DIN MIDI output and input ensure compatibility with classic gear, while stereo L/R outputs connect directly to any audio system.

Included Accessories

The ARP 2600 M ships with a dedicated carry case and a set of exclusive ARP stickers, making it ready for transport to the studio, stage, or wherever inspiration strikes.
