The ARP 2600 is a semi-modular analog subtractive audio synthesizer, designed by Alan R. Pearlman and manufactured by his company, ARP Instruments, Inc. Unlike other modular systems of the time, which required modules to be purchased individually and wired by the user, the 2600 was semi-modular with a fixed selection of basic synthesizer components internally pre-wired.

- The ARP 2600 is a semi-modular analog subtractive audio synthesizer, designed by Alan R. Pearlman and manufactured by his company, ARP Instruments, Inc. Unlike other modular systems of the time, which required modules to be purchased individually and wired by the user, the 2600 was semi-modular with a fixed selection of basic synthesizer components internally pre-wired. The 2600 was thus ideal for musicians new to synthesis due to its ability to be operated either with or without patchcords, and was, upon its initial release, heavily marketed to high schools, universities, and other educational facilities. Three basic versions of the ARP 2600 were built during ARP's lifetime. The first, dubbed the "Blue Marvin", housed in a light blue/grey metal case, was assembled in a small facility on Kenneth Street in Newton Highlands, MA during ARP's infancy as a company. They were often mistakenly referred to as "Blue Meanies," but "Marvin" is the correct name as named after Arp's then CFO Marvin Cohen. Later ARP 2600s were built in a vinyl covered wood case and contained an imitation of Bob Moog's infamous 4-pole "ladder" VCF, later the subject of an infamous, threatened (though ultimately nonexistent) lawsuit. Finally, in order to fit in with the black/orange theme of ARP's other synthesizers, the ARP 2600s were manufactured with orange labels over a black aluminum panel. Little known is that the mid-production grey 2600 models featured many changes amongst themselves. Various panel lettering and circuitry changes provided not one, but at least three different grey panel models. Alan R. Pearlman was just as innovative as a salesman as a synthesizer designer. He provided synthesizers to well-known musicians such as Edgar Winter, Peter Townshend, Stevie Wonder, and Herbie Hancock, each in exchange for his endorsement as a professional user. The enduring popularity of the ARP 2600 has led to software companies such as Arturia and Way Out Ware releasing software emulations for use with modern music equipment such as MIDI devices and computer sequencers. An ARP 2600 was used to create the voice of R2-D2 in the Star Wars movies.
- Der ARP 2600 ist ein analoger, monophoner semi-modularer Synthesizer aus den 70er Jahren, hergestellt von ARP Instruments. Der semi-modulare Aufbau besteht darin, dass viele der Module bereits inwändig verkabelt waren, andere sich jedoch auch noch selbst via Patchkabeln verbinden ließen. Für die Klangerzeugung sorgen drei VCOs und ein selbstoszillierendes VCF. Der ARP 2600 hat einen funkigen Sound und wird daher von vielen Musikern bis heute eingesetzt, darunter Herbie Hancock, Depeche Mode, Jean Michel Jarre, Blancmange oder Freddy Fresh, wodurch das Instrument heute Kultstatus genießt. Seit einigen Jahren gibt es eine Software-Emulation für moderen Betriebssysteme (Windows XP und Mac OS X). Ein Teil der Stimme des Roboters R2-D2 in den Star Wars Filmen wurde mit einem ARP 2600 erzeugt.
- ARP 2600 est un synthétiseur semi-modulaire monophonique commercialisé entre 1971 et 1981 par la société américaine ARP. Version portable du 2500, un puissant synthétiseur modulaire de recherche, le 2600 se distingue par la possibilité de router les différents modules électroniques grâce à des cordons Jack. L'utilisateur peut toutefois s'en servir sans avoir à relier les éléments. 3 versions se succédèrent pendant les 10 années de production. De nombreuses modifications ont été apportés. Tout d'abord, suite à un contentieux avec Moog, ARP a dû modifier son module de filtrage. Le filtre d'origine a été considéré par le bureau des brevets comme une copie du célèbre filtre Moog. Il se caractérise par un son à la fois rond et puissant, avec une résonance audible jusque dans le haut du spectre. Les versions suivantes ont un son moins large, avec moins de présence dans les basses et surtout une résonance qui s'efface dans les hautes fréquences. Le clavier quant à lui a été amélioré dans les dernières versions, et est devenu duophonique.
- L'ARP 2600 era un sintetizzatore semi-modulare a sintesi sottrattiva, disegnato da Alan R. Pearlman e costruito dalla sua ditta, la ARP Instruments. Diversamente dagli altri sistemi modulari del tempo, che necessitavano di moduli da comprarsi separatamente e che andavano collegati dal musicista, il 2600 aveva una selezione di moduli di base già collegati internamente.
- ARP 2600 är en professionell monofonisk synthesizer släppt 1970 av ARP Instruments. Arp 2600, som räknas som en av de bästa syntarna genom tiderna, hade Moogs syntar som största konkurrent under det tidiga 1970-talet. Till skillnad från Moogs modulära system var ARP 2600 modulär med hårdvarukopplingar som kunde förbikopplas via patchkablar, något som gav möjligheter till stor variation och flexibilitet samtidigt som ovana användare kunde spela på den utan att ha större kunskaper i subtraktiv syntes. Synten tillverkades fram till 1981, och under dess tillverkningstid producerades Arp 2600 i ett antal olika revisioner. Många anser att de tidigare modellernas filter har mer karaktär. En anledning till det är att ARP förlorade en patenttvist mot Moog rörande just deras filter och tvingades designa om det. Filterdesignen som började användas direkt efter att de förlorade patenttvisten har i efterhand betraktats som undermåligt på grund av den dålig frekvensresponsen. Efteråt rättades designen till.
