ARP Instruments, Inc. was a <a href="Lexington%2C_Massachusetts" title="Lexington, Massachusetts">Lexington, Massachusetts</a><a href="#cite_note-1">[1]</a> manufacturer of electronic musical instruments, founded by <a href="Alan_R._Pearlman" title="Alan R. Pearlman">Alan Robert Pearlman</a><a href="#cite_note-2">[2]</a><a href="#cite_note-3">[a]</a> in 1969. It created a popular and commercially successful range of synthesizers throughout the 1970s before declaring bankruptcy in 1981. The company earned a reputation for producing excellent sounding, innovative instruments and was granted several patents for the technology it developed.

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History">History</h2></div>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Background">Background</h3></div>

Alan Pearlman was an engineering student at <a href="Worcester_Polytechnic_Institute" title="Worcester Polytechnic Institute">Worcester Polytechnic Institute</a>, <a href="Massachusetts" title="Massachusetts">Massachusetts</a> in 1948 when he foresaw the coming age of <a href="Electronic_music" title="Electronic music">electronic music</a> and <a href="Synthesizer" title="Synthesizer">synthesizers</a>. He later wrote "The electronic instrument's value is chiefly as a novelty. With greater attention on the part of the engineer to the needs of the musician, the day may not be too remote when the electronic instrument may take its place ... as a versatile, powerful, and expressive instrument."<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEVail200049-4">[3]</a>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Beginnings">Beginnings</h3></div>

Following 21 years of experience in electronic engineering and entrepreneurship, Pearlman founded the company in 1969 with $100,000 of personal funds and a matching amount from investors, with fellow engineering graduate David Friend on board from the beginning as the co-founder of the company.<a href="#cite_note-korg-5">[4]</a> The company derived its name from Pearlman's initials, and existed briefly as the ARP Instrument Division of Tonus, Inc.<a href="#cite_note-nmc-6">[5]</a><a href="#cite_note-ARPSynthPatents-7">[6]</a> Their first instrument, the <a href="ARP_2500" title="ARP 2500">ARP 2500</a>, was released the following year.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEVail200049-4">[3]</a> It was marketed for use in academic contexts as "The concert grand of synthesizers."<a href="#cite_note-8">[7]</a>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Success">Success</h3></div>

The <a href="ARP_2600" title="ARP 2600">ARP 2600</a> began production in 1971. As an engineer, Pearlman had little understanding of the music industry or its potential audience. He felt the best market for synthesizers would be music departments at schools and universities, and designed the instrument to be easy to use for this reason.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEVail2000124-9">[8]</a> David Friend and musician <a href="Roger_Powell_(musician)" title="Roger Powell (musician)">Roger Powell</a> toured the US demonstrating the 2600 to various musicians and dealers, and it quickly became a popular instrument.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEVail2000124–125-10">[9]</a> The first significant user of the 2600 was <a href="Edgar_Winter" title="Edgar Winter">Edgar Winter</a>, who connected the keyboard controller of the 2600 to the main unit via a long extension cord, allowing him to wear the synth around his neck like a <a href="Keytar" title="Keytar">keytar</a>. <a href="Stevie_Wonder" title="Stevie Wonder">Stevie Wonder</a> was an early adopter of the 2600, who had the control panel instructions labelled in <a href="Braille" title="Braille">Braille</a>.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEVail2000125-11">[10]</a>

Throughout the 1970s, ARP was the main competitor to <a href="Moog_Music" title="Moog Music">Moog Music</a> and eventually surpassed Moog to become the world's leading manufacturer of electronic musical instruments.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEVail200050–51-12">[11]</a> Performers found that ARP synthesizers were better at staying in tune than Moogs owing to superior oscillator design. The 2500 used a matrix-signal switching system instead of patch cords on a Moog, which led to some performers complaining about <a href="Crosstalk" title="Crosstalk">crosstalk</a> between signal paths. The 2600 on the other hand, used hardwired ("normaled") signal paths that could be modified with switch settings, or completely overridden using patch cords. <a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEVail200050-13">[12]</a>

There were two main camps among synthesizer musicians—the <a href="Minimoog" title="Minimoog">Minimoog</a> players and the <a href="ARP_Odyssey" title="ARP Odyssey">ARP Odyssey</a>/<a href="ARP_2600" title="ARP 2600">ARP 2600</a> players—with most proponents dedicated to their choice, although some players decided to pick and choose between the two for specific effect, as well as many who dabbled with products produced by other manufacturers. Notably, the 2500 was featured in the hit movie <a href="Close_Encounters_of_the_Third_Kind" title="Close Encounters of the Third Kind">Close Encounters of the Third Kind</a>;<a href="#cite_note-14">[13]</a> ARP's Vice President of Engineering, <a href="Phil_Dodds" title="Phil Dodds">Phillip Dodds</a>, was sent to install the unit on the movie set and was subsequently cast as Jean Claude, the musician who played the now famous five-note sequence on the huge synthesizer in an attempt to communicate with the alien mothership.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEVail200056-15">[14]</a>

The <a href="ARP_Odyssey" title="ARP Odyssey">Odyssey</a> was released in 1972. It was designed as a cut-down version of the 2600 for touring musicians, competing with the <a href="Minimoog" title="Minimoog">Minimoog</a>, and contained a three-octave keyboard. Later versions featured a pressure-pad operated pitch control system.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEVail200051-16">[15]</a>

The best selling ARP synthesizer was the <a href="ARP_Omni" title="ARP Omni">Omni</a>, released in 1975. It was a fully polyphonic keyboard that used top-octave divide-down oscillators that had been used on <a href="Electronic_organ" class="mw-redirect" title="Electronic organ">electronic organs</a>, and competed with the <a href="Polymoog" title="Polymoog">Polymoog</a>.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEVail200051-16">[15]</a> In 1977, the company peaked financially with $7 million sales.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEVail200052-17">[16]</a> The <a href="ARP_Quadra" title="ARP Quadra">Quadra</a> was released the following year, and contained a number of synthesizer modules combined and controlled by a <a href="Microprocessor" title="Microprocessor">microprocessor</a>.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEVail200052-17">[16]</a>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Decline">Decline</h3></div>

The demise of ARP Instruments stemmed from financial difficulties following development of the <a href="ARP_Avatar" title="ARP Avatar">ARP Avatar</a>,<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEVail200053-18">[17]</a> a synthesizer module virtually identical to the <a href="ARP_Odyssey" title="ARP Odyssey">ARP Odyssey</a> without a keyboard and intended to be played by a solid body electric guitar via a specially-mounted hexaphonic <a href="Guitar_pickup" class="mw-redirect" title="Guitar pickup">guitar pickup</a> whose signals were then processed through discrete pitch-to-voltage converters.<a href="#cite_note-VailM-19">[18]</a>

Although an excellent, groundbreaking instrument by all accounts, the Avatar failed to sell well. ARP Instruments was never able to recoup the research and development costs associated with the Avatar project<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEVail200054-20">[19]</a> and after several more attempts to produce successful instruments such as the <a href="ARP_Quadra" title="ARP Quadra">ARP Quadra</a>, ARP 16-Voice & 4-Voice Pianos, and the ARP Solus, the company finally declared bankruptcy in May 1981.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEVail200055–56-21">[20]</a>

During the liquidation process, the liquidators ordered Philip Dodds, chief engineer at ARP, to sell the assets he managed to sell the 4-Voice Piano and a working prototype of the <a href="ARP_Chroma" class="mw-redirect" title="ARP Chroma">ARP Chroma</a> the company's most sophisticated instrument design to date—were to CBS Musical Instruments for $350,000.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEVail200057-22">[21]</a> Dodds reassembled the former ARP development team at CBS to complete the Chroma primary the software and manufacturing now as <a href="Rhodes_Chroma" title="Rhodes Chroma">Rhodes Chroma</a>. It was produced from 1982 to late 1983. The instrument has a flexible voice architecture, 16-note polyphony, weighted, wooden keyboard action with 256 velocity levels, a single slider parameter editing system (subsequently implemented on the <a href="Yamaha_DX7" title="Yamaha DX7">Yamaha DX7</a>); and the inclusion of a proprietary <a href="Digital_data" title="Digital data">digital</a> interface system that predated <a href="MIDI" title="MIDI">MIDI</a>.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEVail2000186–187-23">[22]</a> It was controlled internally by two processors, keybed scanning by Intel 8039 and a Motorola 68B09 generating all functions such as LFO, EG, etc.

In 2015, almost three and a half decades after it closed its doors, the company's second flagship instrument, the <a href="ARP_Odyssey" title="ARP Odyssey">ARP Odyssey</a>, was brought back into production by <a href="Korg" title="Korg">Korg</a>, working in collaboration with David Friend, Alan Pearlman's co-founder at ARP.<a href="#cite_note-korg-5">[4]</a>
