Arp Odyssey MKII 2813 with Lumina LED Slider Upgrade

"List of things I've had done to this machine:

- recapped power supply, new grounded power chord added
- complete overhaul of key bed (replaced j-wires, bushings, burnished bus bar)
- lit pot mod, replacement of all front panel switches and sliders (no more gunky, unresponsive parameters)
- high output and low output jacks switched so that high output is the 1/4" jack (most sensible for modern applications)
- cleaning out of conductive solder flux
- fully calibrated and tuned up

All of these things were done by a VERY experienced tech, who was trained by ARP in the seventies to be a certified technician. This work is of the highest caliber, and I paid an arm and a leg for it. Moreover, I have never had a single problem with this machine after having it serviced. The switches and sliders being brand new makes such an enormous difference in the practical application of this synth into your workflow. Get the best of both worlds: vintage feel with modern dependability.

While having this work done, I ran out of money before the tech could run through the CV section. I was told it looked fine, and ought to work, but it was NOT tested. Being that I do not use CV in my studio for anything, I have no way to test this feature of the machine and cannot guarantee its function. I realize this function is important to other kinds of musicians, and in the event that something is wrong with the CV section of this Odyssey, a repair ought not to be prohibitively expensive. Please bid accordingly, though."

Six Retro 158 VCO Wall of Sound


Published on Mar 12, 2013 djangosfire·102 videos

"Testing 3x Buchla format "retro 158" Dual Oscillators = 6x VCO's!

Sequence is random generated from a 266r. 6x VCO's into mixer, then split into 2x LPG - then slammed with a sharp attack generator.... then into a 285e Frequency Shifter that varies from a slow panning to high frequency pitch shifted output."

Just a heads up.  I'm going through my draft posts.  Sometimes Blogger will create double posts, one in draft and one publish.  I'm not finding this one in the archives, so I'm publishing it now.

"Had some fun tonight making some Roland TR style drum sounds on the A4, I wasn't going for exact emulation but similar in style, not too bad though."
