Step into the vibrant soundscapes of the 1970s with the Behringer Solina, a faithful recreation of the legendary ARP/Eminent Solina SE-II. This analog string ensemble synthesizer brings iconic string and brass textures to life with its multi-orchestral capabilities. Whether you're looking to evoke the lush sound of violins, violas, trumpets, horns, cellos, or contrabasses, the Solina delivers with its authentic divide-down synthesis.

The heart of the Solina's charm lies in its lush, multi-stage Bucket Brigade Device (BBD) chorus, a hallmark of its rich, swirling textures. Complementing this is the Small Stone-style phase shifter, which adds a vintage, swooshing dimension to your sound. Both effects are essential for crafting the nostalgic timbres that defined an era.

For modern musicians, the Solina embraces versatility with its comprehensive connectivity options. MIDI In/Thru ports and USB-MIDI compatibility ensure seamless integration into contemporary setups, while a host of 1/8-inch jacks, including gate and trigger outputs, modulation I/O, and VCA CV inputs, expand its possibilities. The Solina can also be transformed into a Eurorack-compatible module, allowing for even more creative exploration.

This synthesizer is more than a nod to the past; it's a bridge to new sonic adventures. With its classic design and modern enhancements, the Behringer Solina is a must-have for those seeking to blend vintage warmth with current innovation.
