# ARP Odyssey

ARP, Odyssey @ 28 July 2010

“FOR SALE:

ARP Odyssey MK II 2813 “Black and Gold” Synthesizer.

PLEASE NOTE: 100-130 Volt Power (original USA Plug).

This Odyssey is in AMAZING (almost flawless) cosmetic condition and very good functioning order. It has never left my smoke free studio.

This version of the Odyssey has the Pitch Bend knob and Trigger, Gate and CV in and outs.

It’s recently had a basic service and a clean by a tech but as with all vintage synths from this era a complete calibration is recommended to get this unit back to perfect playing order.

I don’t know a lot about the ins and outs of this complex synth and to be honest I’ve only played with it a handful of times since buying it a few years ago. It sounds awesome but I found it way too complicated to use on a regular basis, so I can’t justify keeping it as it has become just a great looking piece of studio furniture that simply doesn’t get switched on enough.

As far as I can tell and according to the technician I had it looked at by, all of the sliders are clean sounding and function perfectly and most are smooth moving (only a couple have a slight stiffness to them). All the keys are triggering perfectly but there are tuning quirks on certain intervals when played duophonically.

I am selling this synth ‘as is’. ” Link
