Didn't the ARP Odyssey go on sale in 72?

Well..... the Odyssey Mk III was manufactured & sold into the early 80's.

Oddity 2 hands down

I'm selling Oddity 2 for £70 if anyone is interested and also Imposcar 1 for £35. PM me if anyone's interested. Payment by Paypal. They both go NFR afterwards.

Arcvidean.

YES!

...

Wait, what was the question?

Yes! ...they should definitely address all the quirks mentioned here, but they are all things you can live with. It sounds awesome. With an update it could be synth of the year.

I think their pricing strategy is a miscalculation. I think if they halved the price they would get significantly more than double the sales. The current price sits outside of the synth sweet spot. Just having a quick think now, at USD$89 I think I would grab it. Maybe it is selling its nut sack off, however no one in the group of producers I hang around with has bought it and it rarely ever features in any of those ubiquitous "top ten synth" threads you see around the place (selection bias/sample size nothwithstanding...from all reports it is a great synth, so perhaps we can infer that sales are not what they should be for a synth of this quality.

$89, seriously?

I bet if they made it free, even more people would use it.

TBH, it sounds really good, IMO.

Can someone tell me how often Gforce has sales? I missed the intro price, but would like to grab it on their next sale......if they have sales.

Rarely.

I think you'll be waiting 2 or 3 years at least before Oddity 2 is discounted I'm afraid.

I couldn't talk myself into buying it. I still use oddity 1 regularly and there just wasn't enough in the update for me to care. I'm sure I'll grab it someday on impulse but I'm not feeling any burning desire to have it compared to version 1. That being said if you don't have version one I would wholeheartedly recommend this thing to anybody. The ARP is a classic and very fun sound to have and they did a hell of a job. The crazy minimonsta modulation is just a bonus.

Oh my poor eyes. I get it that they want something that sounds like the hardware equivalent, but does it have to look like it on the screen? 75 quid is a tad much for an upgrade of my current Oddity license. Pass!

Doh!

The price seems fair, it's just that I already have so many great synths and don't really need Odity 2......I just want it.

Gforce Oddity 2 YES / NO???
