Korg Arp Odyssey: "7 by 2" (Full Duophony)


Published on Jan 12, 2020 Kris Lennox

"Something for the Arp, given Korg's announcement RE the 2600. If the Odyssey is anything to go by, the 2600 will be something else. In saying that, the Odyssey is a very special synth in its own right. Finding a synth with such a strong bass is certainly a challenge. If looking for a great bass synth, I'd strongly recommend the Odyssey.

The duophony on the Odyssey is interesting in the sense that if you play a note and then play a 2nd note/voice multiple times, this note re-triggers the 1st note/voice. For some, this is a limitation - but it doesn't necessarily have to be seen as such.

Musically/compositionally, this is what is known as "1st Species Counterpoint" - which, in simple terms, is music written with a 1:1 rhythmic ratio (species counterpoint is primarily a description of rhythmic relationships). So, no 2nd species/3rd species/florid counterpoint etc possible on the Oddy - but this limitation allows for creative exploration of 1st species counterpoint.

I see this similar to the likes of early computer game music, where voices were very restricted. Despite the voice limitation, many great soundtracks were crafted.

The included is in 7/16, and initially sounds like only one idea/line, before gradually morphing into two independent voices. I'm treating each voice as multiple voices, hence the sound is possibly 'bigger' than what is commonly imagined with duophony.

MIDI sent from DAW to synth.

"A very fun and versatile analog sequencer! Atomosynth is a boutique brand, located in Lime, Peru.

Details:

This synth features one analog square and saw waveform VCO (voltage controlled oscillator) with a huge pitch range, from subsonic to ultrasonic sound.

One square and triangle waveform LFO (low frequency oscillator), that modulates the VCO for the vibrato effect creating old school arcade Atari-like sounds.

White noise generator that triggers the VCO and can create percussion like sounds.

8 step Sequencer with note on/off switch and pitch knob for each step

It features a 1/4 inch audio output, 1/4 inch CV Output (to control other analog gear).

The Mochika2 features a MIDI input to sync the Mochika with any midi device sending midi clock signals, the mochika can sync 1, 2, 4 and up to 8 times the tempo of the master clock midi device, also it can be used as a midi to gate converter to sync other analog gear using the CV output of the Mochika2.

Also the instrument is ligthed with 1 bright red led that indicates the LFO Rate, and 8 red leds to indicate the step that is being played. Very useful when you play it on a dark stage.

The Analog Sequencer is packed in a cool laser cut clear acrilic case that shows all the hand made analog circuitry.

The instrument is powered directly from 110V or 220V AC.

Dimensions: 230mm(W), 170 mm(D), 80mm(H. incuded rubber feet and knobs)"

"It's been a long old week hasn't it? Well Sunday is Droneday so if you're not keen on notes that last the whole jam, low frequencies and reverb (LOTS OF REVERB) probably step away now. Otherwise lie back turn off the lights and drone on friends."
