Crumar Vst Free
Received my Crumar Seven yesterday. Haven’t stopped playing it since. I had the opportunity to compare it directly to a Nord Electro 6. Free VST sequencer Music. Based on sample from different String synths, including the ARP Solina. A synthedit creation with some interesting string sounds. For the same price (free!) you also have samples from Mellotron, Crumar.
Let’s go crazy (diamond)
1 Cheeze Machine by Big Tick audio
One of the oldest VSTi around the web, but still refreshing. You have the ensemble sound + the phaser + the reverb => you got the ARP Solina string sound. Kind of.
An Audio Unit version is also available for Mac OS X.
It just lacks a 64 bit version.
2. eSline String by ElektroStudio
eSline VST free Arp Solina !
Another “old analog” style emulation by ElektroStudio. The good phaser is here for this VST recreation of the ARP solina. You can select between Viola, Violon, Trumpet and Horn sounds.
Unfortunaly, no 64 bit version.
3. Crazy Diamonds by Rumpelrausch
From the same dev who created Zr3 Organ plugin, this “String Synth” emulator can produce the creamy sounds we all love. Of course his name come from the intro of “Shine on You Crazy Diamond”.
4. Stringer by Falke Lab
Stringer VST
download on archive.org
Based on sample from different String synths, including the ARP Solina. A synthedit creation with some interesting string sounds. For the same price (free!) you also have samples from Mellotron, Crumar performer, Korg Trident.
It has a simple filter and envelope generator.
32 bit only (Synthedit).

Simple but effective, this String Synth VST can produces fine pads, with this nice phasing effect.
It sounds more “modern” and clean than the other, but above all, it sounds good.

Not only free, it’s also open source.
This is a very good drawbar emulation, with onboard FX, nice saturation, and the speaker leslie emulation. Perfect for emulating gospel organ and rock organ. And check the “NHL” preset!

As all the other plugins in this list are 32 bit, it could be nice to compile a 64 bit version.
