Step into the golden era of synthesis with the Cherry Audio Quadra, a stunning emulation of the ARP Quadra, a synthesizer legend since 1978. This virtual instrument is a masterstroke of engineering, capturing the heart of the original while enhancing it with modern-day flexibility and sound quality. Each of its four powerful sections can be assigned independently across the keyboard, offering boundless creative possibilities for layering and splitting sounds.

The Quadra’s iconic sound is enriched with Cherry Audio's enhanced onboard effects, including a stereo chorus/flanger, syncable echo, and studio-quality reverb, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in digital synthesis. Say goodbye to clunky patch storage; the Quadra features an extensive, unlimited patch browsing system for intuitive exploration.

The bass section delivers deep, monophonic warmth, while the string section elegantly echoes the orchestral richness of the 70s. The poly synthesizer section offers expanded waveforms and a drift button for that organic analog feel. Meanwhile, the lead synth section is a powerhouse of sound, featuring dual oscillators and a variety of waveforms for dynamic lead lines.
