[1967runningman]

the portomento on this keyboard was awesome

[djgoziggaga]

kraftwerk used that thing :D:D

[iandangerfield]

its a good thing that this gut isn't flying the Star Ship Enterprise!

[TheAlphadial]

That thing looks like it's in pristine condition, thanks for taking care of it.

[hotlanta71]

that was a wonderful performance...it would seem that people who know synths would recognize it.

[plasmaforce11]

jeez :P sliderfreak

[typeanoise]

You people are idiots, I am sure he was showing that ever slider was in working order.

[vrembrand]

such synth jamming without any knowledge how to operate the machine, only makes me nervous...

[donpepperoni0]

I think this was to demonstrate that everything was working when selling on ebay?

[NewShimmer]

I have an old Odyssey whiteface model. Where gifuboy could have improved this demo is by running simple scales up and down the keyboard. with and without filter tracking If you want to sell an instrument, you need to show the keyboard tracking is working. With this Odyssey, I'm not sure either the oscillators or filter can properly track the keyboard. My Odyssey wasn't tracking the keyboard the last I had it out, and that's why it's awaiting restoration.

[plungerdrum]

I love ARP. They used to make some of the best synthesizers.

[MattTheHatt52]

he's going through all of the sliders to prove that everything works as it was for an ebay auction

this isn't supposed to be musical although i think it sounds pretty neat

[bondbug73]

I've got a Mk1 Odyssey, be fair on the man. The Odyssey requires a bit of playing around until the oscillators and such settle down after a ten min warm up. The fun part is playing around and stumbling across a new sound.

[PHAEDRIDER]

and the fun gets funner when you try to get that sound again and get something else..

[nphoria63]

You nearly killed my interest for the Arp Odyssey :(

[str3123]

@nphoria63 hahaha, same here...

[blitzbadger]

It's a white one with a large block of resin inside. Try fixing one!

[konked]

Reading these comments is rather funny. Aren't the synthetisers designed to get sounds by tweaking the knobs so calling the sound crap...

[GianlucaSpace]

Wonderful Synthesizer of the Seventees. Great performance !

[soundmanhaven]

yeah kraftwerk used one for autobann track

[NitnitNameerf]

The guy has an instrument like this, and he doesn't even learn how to use it? God damn, that's a shame.

[bumbleroach]

You are a really awesome person for posting this reply. Really. How wonderful you are. what a man.

[xnonsuchx]

@NitnitNameerf - That's why he sold it! ;-)

[Zeshly]

What a great example of the sounds the Arp can produce....

No wonder you're selling it, wouldn't be surprised if you'd had someone else work out how to switch it on for you.

[bumbleroach]

HAHAHAHA you are hilarious!!! What a genius statment!!! Im so impressed with your ability to make me laugh out loud at your reply to a one minute clip of someone playing with a keyboard.

[popfiasco]

It looks like you don't have an idea of how to operate the thing.

[godadameve]

Hey, thanks for posting this. I've often wondered why I sold my arp odyssey...and now I finally know...because it sounded like CRAP!

[sanspoint]

You kidding? That thing sounds amazing, raw, and dirty. If only I could afford one...

[PHAEDRIDER]

i too have made my ody sound like crap, and like pee pee too, come to think of it i have also made it sound like violent gastro intestinal malfunctions, complete with vomit hitting the water in the toilet.. that in itself is enough to make me love my arp, not to mention all the pretty sounds it can make too..

[buggzo]

lmao Greatest reply on here lol

[shelly10538]

that is the best sounding odyssey i've heard.

[swankrecords]

The knobs look like little breath mints.
