Well, you can't have it.

I wonder if the Odyssey is using the same analog emulation system as the rest of the Legacy products.

If i recall correctly, I remember a well known developer on here saying he chatted with the Korg Devs and that they mentioned that the MS20, Polysix, Mono/poly synthesizers all use a wavetable style oscillator system instead of a free-running generator to save on CPU. I wonder if they still use this ?

I'm assuming the that the Odyssey is pretty much identical soundwise to the app?

I'm certainly not paying half of that for one plugin.
You paid $100 for a bunch of 14 year old products on discount. $50 for a brand new synth is unreasonable?

Psychologically, I get that's they're also sold as a bundle, but pretend it's an independent product. Is it worth $50 to you or not?
Having owned an Odyssey back in the late 70s and not being all that impressed with it then (can't believe I spent a grand for that thing) no, it's definitely not worth $50 to me.

Great. So you won't be making any presets for it then.

Nope, didn't own a Minimoog. Really wanted an Oberheim 4 voice. Now THAT was an amazing sounding instrument. But I couldn't afford 4 grand for a synth.

Ah, yeah. That definitely would have been nice. As a guitarist who's used to watching youtube videos of gear that's my immediate thought when someone asks about seeing demos haha

Regarding Gadget Mac and the differences between that version and the full ones, I can't say for certain, but the iOS versions of the plugins are limited in what you can edit, Milpitas can't add resonance to the filter on presets, Lexington doesn't have the arp, I forget about the Wavestation one, and I don't own Mono/poly yet (edit: mostly it seems you don't get the kaoss pads onscreen). But they are limited in one respect or another, which makes them a bit disappointing to use in Gadget.

You can add them as a foe and hide their responses, but you can't outright block them. You have to use self discipline and ignore them. Use the force! It is up to you to police your own mind.

Time and energy is too precious to spend trying to ignore people in this context. I have to use it daily to ignore people I can’t avoid in the real world. But I get your point.

Not everyone gets along, but the conversations here would be even weirder if it seemed others were talking to ghosts.

I like it. Easy to pull out weird noises as well as more traditional sounds.
