- The ARP 2500, built from 1970 through the mid-70's, was ARP's first product. A monophonic analog modular synthesizer equipped with a set of sliding matrix switches above each module. These were the primary method of interconnecting modules. There were also rows of 1/8" miniphone jacks at the end of each row of matrix switches, to interconnect rows of switches. The main 2500 cabinet could hold 12 modules, and optional wing cabinets could hold 6. The matrix switch interconnection scheme allowed any module's output to connect to any other module's input, unlike the patch cords of competitive units from Moog and Buchla which could obscure control knobs and associated markings, but it had the disadvantage of greater cross-talk. Although the 2500 proved to be a reliable and user-friendly machine, it was not commercially successful, selling approximately 100 units. A collection of the 2500s most popular modules was packaged into a single, non-modular unit as the ARP 2600, leaving out the matrix switching and more esoteric functions. The 2500s most notable usage was in the motion picture Close Encounters of the Third Kind to communicate with aliens. The ARP technician sent to install the unit, Phil Dodds, was cast as the musician. The unit featured in the film consisted of a fully loaded main unit, two fully loaded wing cabinets and dual keyboards in a custom case.
- L' ARP 2500, costruito a partire dal 1970 fino alla metà degli anni settanta, è stato il primo grande sintetizzatore costruito dalla ARP. Si trattava di un sintetizzatore monofonico, equipaggiato con un set di matrici per collegare ulteriori moduli in aggiunta alle corde di serie. Utilizzava corde con un connettore miniphone da 1/8, contrariamente alle corde da 1/4 utilizzate dai sintetizzatori Moog del tempo.
- De ARP 2500 was de eerste grote synthesizer van de Amerikaanse instrumentbouwer ARP Instruments, Inc. Het was een monofone analoge synthesizer, die in productie was vanaf 1970 tot ergens in het midden van de jaren zeventig. De hoofdkast kon tot 12 modules bevatten, de optioneel toe te voegen bijkasten elk 6. De modules konden zoals toen gebruikelijk worden gepatchd, maar konden ook worden geschakeld. De ARP 2500 was geen commercieel succes, er zijn er niet meer dan een stuk of 100 van verkocht. De populairste modules werden later samengevoegd tot de ARP 2600. Een hoofdrol was voor de ARP 2500 weggelegd in de film Close Encounters of the Third Kind, waar de synthesizer wordt gebruikt om met andere vormen van buitenaards leven te communiceren. Phil Dodds was de ARP technicus die het apparaat, bestaande uit een maximale configuratie met twee keyboards bediende. Enkele bekende popmuzikanten hebben de ARP 2500 gebruikt, waaronder Meat Beat Manifesto, The Who, David Bowie, Jean Michel Jarre, Vince Clarke en David Hentschel. Ook componist van klassieke elektronische muziek Elaine Radigue gebruikte de 2500.
