ARP 2500 Multimode Filter
CMS/DISCRETE SYNTHESIZERS has faithfully reproduced the world famous ARP 1047 multimode filter from the ARP 2500 system in a high quality version of the euro-rack format.
CMS has extensive knowledge and experience building and repairing these classic sounding, highly resonant filters. We have taken this expertise and applied it to the euro-rack world. A world somewhat lacking in high fidelity (in our, and some of our customers opinions). We are on a mission to change all that.
Don't let the compact size of the 1047E fool you. This unit is an audio monster. The low end response is remarkable even on the band-pass and high-pass functions. The sonic clarity, high end response and resonant sizzle, sets this filter apart from all the other filters made today. The high-pass response actually has the ability to resonate bass and sub bass audio signals significantly, producing some monster bass sounds for the dance floor, especially when used in series with a 24db low-pass filter.
The 1047 multimode filter is the module that gives the ARP 2500 it's distinctive sound more than any other 2500 module by far. The CMS 1047E is a "dead ringer" as far as audio performance and sound, compared to the original. Actually our version has lower noise specs due to better design, quality components, and no matrix switches.
Using the 1047 high-pass response in series with the 1006 low pass function really captures the classic ARP 2500 sound. You can now realize this sound in your studio with the 1047E and 1006E from CMS.
If you want to reproduce the sound of the ARP 2500 exactly, check out our other 1000 series modules that will soon be available from CMS. They are all based on the ARP 2500 and 2600 systems.
