ARP String Synthesizer
The Solina String Synthesizer, also erroneously known as the ARP Solina String Synthesizer or sometimes the ARP String Synthesizer, is a combination of a string synthesizer and synthesizer. It is a hybrid model which combined both the Solina String Ensemble string synthesizer and the ARP Explorer monophonic synthesizer. It was built in Bodegraven, Netherlands by Eminent B.V.. Supposedly only about 100 were ever produced.[1] The addition of the ARP Explorer to the Solina string sounds made for a very powerful combination.

gollark: And return the post content and the thread title.
gollark: That query there would look up the `post` with `id` 2181924 and pull the row from `thread` with `id` corresponding to the `thread` (which contains the thread ID, presumably) of the `post`.
gollark: https://www.sqlite.org/syntax/join-clause.html
gollark: Yes, that's part of a `JOIN`.
gollark: You might use the `.` thing in a JOIN, for example `SELECT post.content, thread.title FROM post WHERE post.id = 2181924 JOIN thread ON thread.id = post.thread`.
