Jim Heintz, the TimeWarp�s creator, started out repairing ARPs and got to know them pretty well. So he decided to make one in software. Enlisting the talents of a pure maths expert, they worked on component modeling the Arp from the ground up. Alan R Pearlman, the original creator of the 2600 has been consulted along the way so one could say that is endorsed by him. The emulation focuses on the realistic re-creation of the 2600 with very smooth oscillators and no audible aliasing. There have been a few improvements though, the spring reverb being one area coming in for some TLC. The story goes that lead developer Jim Heintz was talking with Alan R Pearlman and saying that he wanted to make sure he captured the original character � Alan was reported to have said �Why would you want to recreate that piece of s**t?� The original spring being full of unpleasant frequency peaks. So they improved it�s quality, making it smoother � although it still retains it�s �slightly rubbish� character, it�s smoother.
The Plug-in is available in RTAS format with CoreAudio and VST to come shortly.
