Since no one is reviewing this and many have been waiting for reviews, I might as well give it a kick start.
I don't do extensive reviews, nor i think it is wise to rate any instrument compared to what it was cloned for. Many are saying that Oddity comes very close to the real thing. Well, I don't own the real thing, so I can't compare. But software is software, hard is hard. You're paying 10% of the hardware price for this.
As a VSTi, GMedia has done it nearly right this time, low CPU, great sounds. Many banks included (and already another extra one on their website for download).
It looks good (tho with so many small sliders it's difficult to see sometimes), sounds good (different to most Moog or 303 clones, afterall ARP was diffeerent) and the price is right, and it's pretty stable (No crash so far).
One minor thing I don't quite like it's the OhmForce way of handling presets. You load a bank in its own preset loader. However, the preset selection on the host (Cubase SX in my case) doesn't get updated...But I suppose this is just a handling issue, nothing to do with the sounds or workability of the VSTi itself.
Overall the Oddity would please many. The manual is like 50 odd pages, including history of the hardware and intense details on the controls.
Well worth it. Be it a clone or not, we do need more quality VSTi's like this at this price.Read Review
