The classic KORG ARP Odyssey is now available for iOS (iPad/iPhone) with the release of the ARP ODYSSEi Mobile Analog Synthesizer for iOS. The software faithfully models the circuits of all three versions of the ARP Odyssey and adds new functionality to allow further possibilities beyond the unique sounds Odyssey has become famous for.
Korg has used their proprietary Circuit Modeling Technology (CMT) to capture the analog essence of the original as closely as possible. In addition to the three filter types and the Drive function available on Korg’s 2015 revival of Odyssey, ARP ODYSSEi offers a new voice assign mode that allows the user to play chords, an arpeggiator that can be programmed much like a step sequencer, and effects that can transform the sound dramatically.
ARP ODYSSEi can be used in conjunction with the KORG Gadget music production DAW app, is compatible with Audiobus and Inter-App Audio, and can also be used in GarageBand.
ARP ODYSSEi is available for download from the App with an introductory price of $19.99 through November 30.
