Odyssey : Not bad for the money, but a few things need fixing

6 years ago

The sound is virtually identical to the Korg Arp Odyssey. But the Behringer has full-sized keys which feel a lot nicer to the SlimKey Korg. That said, the onboard effects are pretty bad and you rather keep them off, so not a selling point, nor is the very basic sequencer which cannot be sync’d anyway. While I like the colored sliders, I found that from a pure feel perspective they are not very nice to the touch. I much prefer the sliders on the Korg version. And there is definitely something off about the HPF - it’s like nothing even happens until the last 1/4 of travel and then there is audible scratching as you move it (design flaw). I also found the envelopes a bit different than the Korg. When you want to make short attacks or very fast decays there isn’t much resolution as there is on the Korg.
