Korg ARP Odyssey Synthesizer (2015) – single sound demo

Marko is probably the first german guy to demo the machine for everyone to check all basic features of the Korg Odyssey 1 / 2 OSCs, Sync, Ringmod, Filter Sweeps .. it’s all in – don’t listen if you can’t „abstract“ the sound from the music you might want to do. ok, not the first.. Erste Demos vom Korgessy.   UPDATE: Test/Review in German of both – a Mk3 Original vs the new Korg one is here – all done by Marko „Retrosound“ Ettlich for Amazona.

Behringer bringing in the Vintage Synths II: Korg Behringessey EX2800? #ARP #Odyssey

Wir diskutieren schon länger über diese Idee von Amazona, die Behringer auch wieder aufbringt in aktiver Form: Forum • Behringer Synthstudie – Phat 108 -> Juno 106 Clone. – Korg ist ja schon lange dabei den Odyssey zu klonen – und jetzt mit Display auch bei Behringer für 500 Dollar?
