Solovox 是哈蒙德公司于 1940 年至 1950 年间制造的一款经典乐器,也是当时的另一款经典乐器。Solovox 基于 Novachord 的振荡器和分频器电路,配备 18 个真空管,是一款小型单音键盘乐器,安装在钢琴键盘下方,旨在为钢琴键盘增添类似管风琴的音色。它由两个单元组成:一个三个八度的迷你键盘和一个用于电子发声器、放大器和扬声器的音箱。与 Clavioline 和 Ondioline 一样,Solovox 可以产生一系列弦乐、木管乐和管风琴音色,并在 20 世纪 40 年代至 60 年代的轻音乐中广泛使用。可惜的是,60 年代紧凑型晶体管管风琴的出现标志着 Solovox 的衰落。
Solovox 特点:
忠实还原单音"键盘附件"乐器的虚拟模拟效果。
可组合低音/次中音/女低音/女高音开关,可设置八度音域,类似现代合成器素材设置。
第一音色和第二音色均采用双极带通滤波器,带电平控制,中心频率分别为 400 Hz 和 800 Hz。
用于音源信号的"深沉音色"设置,带有一个单极(每八度斜率为 6dB)低通滤波器,固定频率为 200 Hz。
用于音源信号的"明亮音色"设置,带有一个单极(每八度斜率为 6dB)高通滤波器,固定频率为 2000 Hz。
"饱满音色"设置控制干音(未应用滤波器)音源信号的振幅。
可调节滑音和固定速率颤音。
静音控制,可滤除振荡器声音中的谐波。
混响效果采用房间算法,可复制标准的 Solovox 功放和扬声器组合。
发光真空管会根据每个滤波器的音量设置做出响应。
50 个预设,涵盖贝斯、弦乐、主音和木管乐器,由音效设计总监 James Terris 打造。
两种乐器的标配:
所有控制均配备完整的 MIDI 控制和 DAW 自动化功能,并具有易于使用的 MIDI 学习和映射功能(预设和全局)。
Cherry Audio 广受欢迎的 Focus 放大功能,以及标准的 UI 缩放和拖动调整功能。
完整的文档可直接从乐器在线获取,或以可下载的 PDF 格式获取。
用户可调的过采样控制。

The Solovox, manufactured by Hammond between 1940 and 1950, was another classic instrument of the era. Based on the Novachord's oscillator and divider circuits, the Solovox with its 18 vacuum tubes was a small monophonic keyboard instrument attached beneath a piano keyboard and intended to augment it with organ-type lead voices. It consisted of two units: the three-octave mini keyboard, and a tone cabinet for the electronic sound generator, amplifier, and loudspeaker. Like the Clavioline and Ondioline, the Solovox produced a range of string, woodwind, and organ sounds and was widely used in light music from the 1940s and into the 1960s. Unfortunately, the introduction of compact transistor organs released in the 60s marked the end of the Solovox's popularity.
Solovox Features:
Faithful virtual analog emulation of the monophonic 'keyboard attachment' instrument.
Combinable Bass/Tenor/Contralto/Soprano switches to set note range in octaves, like modern synthesizer footage settings.
First Voice and Second Voice two-pole bandpass filters with level controls and variable center frequencies of 400 Hz and 800 Hz, respectively.
Deep Tone setting for the tone generator signal, with a one-pole (6dB per-octave slope) lowpass filter with a fixed frequency of 200 Hz.
Brilliant Tone setting for the tone generator signal, with a one-pole (6dB per-octave slope) highpass filter with a fixed frequency of 2000 Hz.
Full Tone setting controls the amplitude of the dry (no filters applied) tone generator signal.
Adjustable Glide and fixed-rate Vibrato.
Mute control to filter harmonics from the oscillator voice.
Reverb effect with Room algorithm to replicate the standard Solovox amp and speaker combo.
Glowing vacuum tubes respond to the volume setting of each filter.
50 presets covering Basses, Strings, Leads, and Woodwinds, by Director of Sound Design James Terris.
Standard for Both Instruments:
Complete MIDI control and DAW automation for all controls, with easy-to-use MIDI learn and mapping (Preset and Global).
Cherry Audio's popular Focus zoom-in feature, as well as standard UI zoom and resize via drag.
Complete documentation available directly online from the instrument or in downloadable PDF format.
User-adjustable oversampling control.
