Key Features

• Dual VCOs: Two analog voltage-controlled oscillators offering sawtooth, square/pulse, and sine/square waveforms. [1, 2]
• Three Filter Types: Includes all three historic filter variations from the original ARP Odyssey revisions (2-pole MK1, 4-pole MK2, and 4-pole MK3) plus a modern VCF drive circuit. [1, 2, 3]
• Modern Additions: Built-in 32-step sequencer, arpeggiator, and 24-bit Klark Teknik digital effects (reverb, chorus, flanger, delay, and pitch-shifter). [1, 2]
• Proportional Pitch Control (PPC): Retains the unique pressure-sensitive pads for pitch bending and vibrato instead of traditional wheels. [1]
• Connectivity: USB/MIDI and full CV/Gate I/O integration.
• Detailed SpecificationsCategorySpecification DetailsKeyboard & Playability37 semi-weighted, full-size keys with velocity sensitivity; monophonic or duophonic operating modes; 3 pressure-sensitive Proportional Pitch Control (PPC) pads.Sound EnginePure analog signal path featuring 2 Voltage Controlled Oscillators (VCOs) with switchable sawtooth, square/pulse, and pulse-width modulation. Includes a pink/white noise generator and ring modulator.Filter Section (VCF)3-position switchable filter replicating classic historic designs: MK I (2-pole 4023), MK II (4-pole 4035), and MK III (4-pole 4075). Includes a switchable overdrive/VCA drive circuit.Envelopes & LFO2 analog envelope generators (1x AR, 1x ADSR). LFO features sine/square waveshape outputs, Sample & Hold functionality, and a lag processor. VCO 1 can also be decoupled to act as a secondary LFO.Sequencer & Arpeggiator32-step onboard sequencer with storage for up to 64 patterns across 8 banks; integrated multi-pattern arpeggiator.Digital EffectsStudio-grade 24-bit Klark Teknik multi-effects engine including reverb, chorus, flanger, delay, pitch-shifter, and combined effects presets.Physical Dimensions5.2" x 23.2" x 16.1" (13.2 x 58.9 x 40.8 cm) | Weight: 17.9 lbs (8.1 kg).
