die hauptversion ist die bekannte mit der orangen schrift..
und dann die schwarz/goldene..
3 farbversionen also.. auch technisch wurde immer ein bisschen rumgebastelt.. auch beim odyssey gab es massig versionen, sogar noch mehr..
alle mit vergossenen modulen.. man kann sie wohl aber auch öffnen..
Aus der Harmony-Central-Bewertungs-Zentrale:
ARP 2600 #1: "BLUE MEANIE" -- Easily distinguished from the other
versions by the odd, blue metal case and 'curtain-rod' handle across
the top, this is the one to leave to the moron collector types. Only
a handful produced, almost none work today. Used a lot of prototype
circuitry and had the original non-bender keyboard.
ARP 2600 #2: "GREY MEANIE" -- The famous version that most people
think of when they think of this synth. The first in the clunky
wood and Tolex case, this has a grey panel and the SQUARE ARP/Tonus
logo by the power switch. This is the most desirable one due to it
sharing one important feature with the Blue Meanie: the infamous
"Moog copy" ladder filter that sparked a suit between Moog and ARP.
Also originally shipped with the non-bender keyboard, it also later
came with the knob-bender/variable scaling keyboard (the 3604). The
"Grey Meanie", however, is more fragile than later versions...another
irritating carryover of sorts from its predecessor.
ARP 2600 #3: "THE G-CLEF 2600" -- This is the post-lawsuit 2600, and
incorporates a seriously-altered VCF design that actually contains
a design flaw that limits its frequency response. It looks _almost_
like the "Grey Meanie", except that the logo decal near the power
switch now has the new G-clef ARP logo instead of the old boxy
ARP/Tonus logo. There are also some slight graphics changes on the
patch panel. Late versions of this could be gotten with the two-voice
3620 keyboard as well as the 3604.
ARP 2600 #4: "ORANGE AND WHITE 2600" -- This is the final version of
the 2600, very easily distinguished from the others by the use of
orange and white graphics and the 'Helvetica' ARP logo. Uses the
V.3 filter, but only a few of this run have the ultra-annoying
potted submodules, so it's possible to easily modify the filter's
frequency response or to remove it altogether and put a clone of the
ladder filter from the 'Grey Meanie' in. Available with 3604 and 3620
keyboards. There is some concensus among 2600 users that these are
the most reliable of the series and therefore just under the 'Grey
Meanie' in desirability.
----------------------------
Demnach sind Version 3 und 4 am "häufigsten" anzutreffen.
