Analogue Solutions TC5000 – A Modern ARP 2500-Style Pin Matrix Synthesizer Coming Soon


Analogue Solutions has introduced its latest monster synth, the ARP 2500-inspired TC5000.

The Analogue Solutions TC5000 is an analog modular synthesizer, with a full-width pin matrix for patching, above and below a center row of synth modules.

While the TC5000 copies the look of the ARP 2500, it’s not a clone or knockoff. Like their earlier Colossus synth, the TC5000 is designed to offer the same high-end build and ‘feel’ as its vintage counterpart, but with an original synth voice.

The TC5000 modules are based on Analogue Solutions’ own circuits. Some modules are adapted from some of the company’s existing synths, like Leipzig, Telemark and Fusebox, and some are new designs, specific to the TC5000.

What Analogue Solutions has to say about the TC5000:

‘Using TC5000 for sounds design will give you a similar experience to the ARP.

User interface is a very important aspect of sound design. It really isn’t all about the filter. How you interact with a synth is equally important. Different UI and working approaches means you will come up with patches you might otherwise not have come across using say, patch leads.”

Details and audio demos are to come. The photos are of a pre-production unit, and AS says that the selection of modules that will be configured in the final production systems may change.

The Analogue Solutions TC5000 is available now to pre-order, priced at 22,000 GBP (exc. tax and shipping), with shipping expected towards the end of 2024.
