Back in the 1970s, the ARP Odyssey powered some of the most unforgettable solos in progressive rock and jazz fusion, and this faithful recreation puts that legendary vibe right at your fingertips for a fraction of the vintage price.
Two analog oscillators deliver sawtooth and square/pulse waveforms with pulse width modulation, sync, and cross modulation, feeding into a versatile filter that switches between all three original Odyssey revisions for everything from creamy lows to screaming leads. Dual envelopes—one for amp, one for filter—pair with a sample & hold, noise generator, and ring modulator, while the mono/duo paraphonic voices let you stack tones for thicker sounds. The 37 semi-weighted full-size keys feel solid under your fingers, spread across a hefty 15.4 lb steel-front-panel chassis measuring 24.4 x 13.4 x 5.3 inches, with hands-on knobs for every parameter plus pressure-sensitive performance pads. Modern touches like a 32-step sequencer with 64 presets, arpeggiator, Klark Teknik effects (reverb, delay, pitch shift), MIDI/USB/CV/Gate I/O, and balanced outputs make it stage- and studio-ready.
Owners praise its authentic fat tones, build quality, and value, calling it one of the top modern analog monosynths—though some note minor tuning quirks live that are easy to dial in.
