Arp Odyssey is one amazing synthesizer. I totally love its sound even more than the Moog’s. It is so raw, organic, punchy, cutting, mellow you name it. Probably the most versatile synth out there. And on top of it it’s a legend just as much as a Mini. Great demo and presentation. You can check out my Odyssey funk demos if you like👍Keep up the good work!

Your joy makes me feel joy.

I really really wish you become the standard review guy for all vintage and new synths/drum machines.

This has been great in helping me understand the ODYSSEY. (I Recently bought the Behringer clone, which is very good) .The squishy buttons you mentioned: Left is pitch down, centre is mod and r is pitch up. They take a bit of getting used to!

I have one of the Korg reissues (MKII kinda like yours) and it's a baffling design/architecture sometimes. Your video really cleared some things up for me, thanks!

I love your personality and excitement, great video!

Wow... best video I have seen on the Odyssey.

To answer your question as to what the three control buttons do on the in the later models. (I've got a Korg/Arp Odyssey.) First off, they're not actually buttons, but pressure switches/pads, that act as springed potentiometers the harder you push. The one to the left bends the pitch down, the one the right bends the pitch up, and the one in the middle is for vibrato. (And boy, they're hard to push on mine!)

Love your synth explanations !!! Keep them coming ( korg ms20 and the odyssey are my favorites) great work!

What a lovely, enthusiastic demo. Thank you! 😀

The joy you have for your Odyssey is infectious! Love it!

Thanks for explaining this so well. It answered a lot of questions for me.

Thank you for the videos and the knowledge you share, keep them coming!

Really good overview. One of the best I’ve seen

Great reviews of these classic synths! I love your attitude too. Looking forward to see more videos from you. Thanks!

nicely done, great fun to watch :-)

Love the final dance....thx for the sounds and explanations.....and let the music play....cheers

Thanks for doing this video. I've had my KARP Odyssey for 2 years now and although it's not the most used synth in my collection recently I've taken it with me whenever I'm away from my studio so I've been digging into how to use it better. You've shown me some more tricks to try so I'm very grateful. I've recently recorded a video of me creating a full instrumental just using the Odyssey, that I have to finish editing and then upload. Keep up the great work. This is a really informative video. Very much appreciated

I just love your videos. The ring modulator vid brought me here years ago. Keep going.

Very entertaining. Thank you.

Wow! He's got the toys. He's got an original Odyssey! Thank you for your demo!

Love that video! Thank you.

To the bemusement of my family, I love a nap to a synth sequence, and tonight was no exception. The previous video ran out and yours came on after. As I was waking up, I'm thinking...since when did Chris Evans (DJ) get into synthesisers? 🤔 Looked at my phone and found it wasn't him at all, but you sound alike. Thankfully you are eminently more bearable and entertaining. Great video to wake to, even if it was confusing at first 😂

Great vid! I've got the KORG Remake. FYI - the three white buttons that replaced the pitch wheel are used to pitch bend down, vibrato, and pitch bend up!

You crack me up in such a great way. Recently purchased a Behringer and need help with this beast. I have been playing and programming synths since the early 1980s, but my BOdyssey has me baffled. Wrote this 4 minutes in and am tickled to catch the rest.

If I had to get rid of all but one of my mono synths, I would keep the Odyssey (I know it's duophonic, but I'm not calling it a "duo-synth"). There's just nothing else like it, or quite as versatile in my opinion. Between the duophony, the wealth of modulation options and unusually competent sample & hold section, there's very little the Odyssey can't do if you know what you're doing. Also, the ARP oscillators have a really unique sound to them; they're brighter than a Moog, but not piercing. The sawtooth is still the creamiest sawtooth I've heard on a synth, and it only gets better when you run it through the 4075 filter.

Great (and pretty) synth capable of lots of lovely sounds, and I want one. btw, I couldn't help noticing how much you sound like Chris Evans off of the radio

The reissues sound great but, the originals have a beautiful chaos, noise and depth they don't have.

Best tutorial about the ARP, thanks, I am yet struggling with it

I just bought a Behringer Odyssey a week ago. This video has made me really happy about my purchase. Your playing is deadly using it. The sounds of analogue remind me of the sounds I heard as a child. Thanks for sharing your enthusiasm and talent. Feckin class stuff best of luck to ya from Midleton, Cork , Ireland 🇮🇪. 👍

Awesome

I was on the verge of ordering the Behringer Odyssey, yeah, you just kicked me across. Love your stuff..

This is wonderful, thank you for the Video, until I can afford those real synths, I'll play along with my Yamaha Reface CS :D

You remind me a bit of Sylvester McCoy if the 7th Doctor was playing synths and banjo instead of only Spoons :D

Magico !!! Come collegare Dark Time a Arp e Moog ? Grazie 🙏

😊😊🤘

John Foxx just called - said wants his synth back 😝 Wicked vid mate - have the exact same Ody myself. Where you from in UK ?

i like your bagpipe embellishments... at 19:06 for example...

Is that a QY in the background (QY70, or 100, or some-such …)? 🧐😊

Crazy sticky faders, but great synth.

I have one of these 2813 units that probably needs service before sale!. can you recommend someone? cleveland ohio also valuation

13:30 sample and hold 13:55 ring mod

I thought only the white faced Odysseys had the 2-pole filter.

Ooh, I’ve never heard it called an ‘A.R.P’ Odyssey , before….🤯….. well, it’s different, I suppose…🤔
