"As you can see I the pics, this vintage, c 1975 Octave Cat (Arp odyssey) is in excellent condition. This is a GENUINE, ORIGINAL, VINTAGE synth. It has just been fully serviced and calibrated, and is in 100% perfect working order. Every key, function, knob, slider and switch operates as designed, and they synth sounds...amazing. This synth also has with full cv/trig/gate ins and outs for interfacing with other synthesizers, expansion modules, or your midi/cv kit. Awesome.

This synthesizer makes all of the beeps, boops, squishy leads, booming basses, and wacky modulation noises you want. You can also achieve wild cross-modulation between the oscillators by switching them into unison mode and using the vco2 pitch to pit them against each other. She also has ring mod, s&h, pink/white noise and audio in for the famous arp filter. (I love running ext audio through it w the sample/hold modulating. -the trick they turned into a $350 moog Murf ;). The synth is in terrific cosmetic condition, with only minor wear."

Dave Smith Instruments "In the Spotlight with the Prophet 12" with Louis Faro

The seventh in the Dave Smith Instruments' "In The Spotlight with the PRO 2" series is currently up with Louis Faro here.

"Louis Faro is a full-time, professional pianist, keyboardist, composer, arranger, and producer.

He began his professional career at age 17, later moving to Chicago where he played with such greats as Michael Manson (bassist for George Duke), Richard Patterson (bassist for Miles Davis, David Sanborn, Roberta Flack, Boz Scaggs), Chuck Webb (bassist for Stevie Wonder, Joe Sample, Ramsey Lewis), Kirk Whalum, and Martha Wash (C&C Music Factory).

Louis currently performs extensively in the Pacific Northwest and beyond. He continues to broaden his fan base with his energetic and compelling blend of jazz, r&b, funk, latin, and classical styles. His original compositions feature bold melodies and rhythms, a unique breadth of musical language, and a mastery of modern synth media."

Dave Smith Pro 2- Rhythmic Sound Design

Published on Oct 27, 2016 iVardensphere

See DSI's interview with iVardensphere here.

"Hey crew! Today we have the Dave Smith Instruments Pro 2. This is, hands down, one of my favourite synthesizers of all time. It's extremely flexible and sounds stunning throughout the creative process. In this video I'm explaining how I use the machine to create rhythmic atmospheres to work within the context of my tracks. Quite often a track just needs to sound 'fuller' and I use the patches I create here to give them that missing depth.

You can hear much of the Pro 2 on my most recent release- iVardensphere: Fable.

This video is made in conjunction with Long & McQuade Music Instruments. If you'd like to try out a Pro 2, be sure to head to an L&M near you."

In this video, Justin DeLay shows us how to approximate three classic Carpenter themes on synthesizers of the day, and gives tips and suggestions on how you can be inspired to experiment at home, all while getting followed by a mysterious Shape...
