Arp Odyssey & Arp Quadra Nord Sample Library



"We're proud to present these brilliant samples from two legendary Arp synthesizers from the seventies, namely the Arp Odyssey and the Arp Quadra - both with tons of personality! Now in the Nord Sample Library!

The Arp Odyssey was a 2-oscillator analog synthesizer released 1972 in response to the popular (and compact) Minimoog and was a huge success for Arp. The Odyssey went through several redesigns until production ended in 1981, improving on the filters and connectivity as well as the visual layout of the synth itself. Notable features were oscillator sync and pulse-width modulation and a duo-phonic mode.

The Arp Quadra was 4 analog synths in one, with dedicated sections for Bass, Strings, Poly and Lead sounds that could be layered – a quite unique feature when released in 1978. Other notable features were the thick phase-shifting effect from the Arp Omni II synthesizer and aftertouch-like features in the upper part of the keyboard (for leads) and two independent portamento rates for each VCO!

The Nord Sample Library is compatible with the Nord Electro 3/4, Nord Stage 2, Nord Wave and Nord Piano 2-series."
