Vintage ARP Odyssey Mk III 2823 Synthesizer Serial SN 28231528

via this eBay listing

"This vintage Mark III ARP Odyssey has been in my possession since 2017. It was serviced in 2019 by Jareth Lackey at SynthPro Restorations. In addition to being thoroughly cleaned, the unit's power supply was replaced, it was recapped, and the low audio output jack was converted to high level. Cosmetically, the unit is in remarkably good condition for its age. The steel chassis and leather side panels have been well taken care of and show very little wear. For the most part, the sliders work smoothly. None of the sliders offer that terrible sticky resistance often associated with vintage ARPs. The switches all work perfectly. VCO 1 probably needs to be calibrated, as it seems to frequently go out of tune. However, once the unit is powered up and left on for about an hour, it works fine. Also included is a custom soft-shell case that's quite sturdy and offers lots of padding. The original ARP Odyssey Owner's Manual and Patch Book are also included."

Additional Analog U.S. Listings

"This one is in excellent cosmetic condition and working 100%. It was recently serviced by Jareth Lackey of SynthPro Restorations and I doubt there is another one here on Ebay that has had the same amount of restoration done to it. I generally would not say that something is "fully restored" as that's almost never accurate, but this one comes very close. It is very stable, ready to be played, and needs nothing! There are some videos of this Memorymoog being restored and demonstrated by SynthPro. If you're into the technical side of this stuff, you should find it very inspiring."

Another Polymoog Lives!! #Polymoog #synthesizers #synthrestore

video upload by synthpro

"This polymoog came to me all the way from British Columbia for a restore. This unit had not worked since 1991 but she sings now. I will never get tired of the sounds of this synthesizer. This was the synthesizer that got me into synthesizers and electronics.

Off Topic but I have been playing a game I got for Christmas called, 'Tunic' and the soundtrack reminds me a lot of the polymoog in areas."

Note the video above is from six years ago. Interesting note on the different versions/dates based on the mod wheels.

"Completely services by Synthpro who is one of the best Moog guy around I think.

He refurbished it for previous owner and I bought this beauty straight from him.

Old oscillator and holds the tune perfectly.You can see the details on Youtube video which is about this particular Mini moog of mine.

Out of some original case foam signs, synth is like new and sounds un comparable."

"Hey Guys, In this video, I go over a very cool little Oberheim OB-1 I have been working on between all my other projects. As you can see in this video, its a great playing little synth once more after being dead for many years.

This particular synth belongs to David Ewing who played with Brenda Lee for 30+ years so this synth also has some awesome history behind it.

"Hey Guys,
This is just a little different video for you. I finished the restoration on this Polymoog 203a and was going through all the functional tests including the moog open interface which you see in use here with my 72 era minimoog.This feature allows you to interface other moog synthesizers to the polymoog and use the keyboard of the polymoog to control them. The 280a also has this feature as well.

Thanks for watching!

sincerely,
Jareth"

Moog Sanctuary (MemoryMoog+) SN 3136

Video in the listing previously posted here.

"The Moog 'Sanctuary', of which only 100 units were ever made was the brainchild of David Van Koevering. Moog Music brought Van Koevering in to guide their marketing efforts when the company had developed a stronger national presence. David worked with local church groups to find a unique marketing outlet for a custom-named set of Moog instruments (the Sanctuary and Joyful Noise designs,) re-branded versions of Moog instruments designed and programmed to appeal to more traditional church markets.

This was recently serviced (November '22) by 'SynthPro' Jareth Lackey. (invoice for works carried out included) and also now includes a modern, bespoke internal powersupply from 'Synthtaste' for added reliability.

Everything works as it should, pots and switches are all behaving perfectly.

The cabinetry is in stunning condition, it really is a synth to behold.

A short video is attached which Jareth recorded after repairs were carried out."

"This is a video that I have had a request to make for some time now.
In this video I show you how to calibrate minimoogs with the version 2 oscillator board.

This video will also work for calibrating the Behringer D since it uses the same version 2 oscillator design.

NOTE: Calibration for the version 3 oscillator board is much different.

"Hey Guys,
This is a video going over a Prophet 5 patch I have programmed into the memorymoog. This is a example of preset 3-6: Release-Repeat found in the Prophet 5.
