Cherry Audio CA ODC 2800 Synthesizer
An exceptional three-in-one virtual instrument!
With the precision-crafted and circuit-modeled DSP designs from award-winning developer Mark Barton, the ODC 2800 transcends mere emulation of the successor to the renowned ARP 2600. ODC 2800 not only delivers an authentic reproduction of the sound and appearance of all three versions of the original hardware. It also elevates the experience with expanded polyphony and smart portamento, an additional oscillator and LFO, extensive modulation options, and support for velocity and polyphonic aftertouch. Plus, it features a redesigned and intuitive integrated effects suite that enhances the sound design process and ease of use. ODC 2800 offers the ultimate journey through time, connecting the past with the future!
Features:
- All aspects of the classic ARP® Instruments Odyssey synthesizers — the 1972 Mk I 2800 series, the 1975 Mk II 2810 series, and the 1978 Mk III 2820 series — have been meticulously replicated with precise detail
- Additionally, ODC 2800 has been significantly enhanced with expanded functionality and modulation options, making it the ultimate expression of the legendary synth that inspired it
- Award-winning synth designer Mark Barton's proprietary DSP coding perfectly reproduces every sonic nuance and response of the original synthesizers
- Introduces a new look for Cherry Audio virtual instruments with the integration of an expandable panel for more immediate access to effects settings
- Over 330 professionally-designed presets in 13 categories
- Monophonic, Mono Legato, Duophonic, and Polyphonic modes with 1, 4, 8, or 16 voices, and unison
- Three complete VCOs, each with sawtooth and square/pulse waveforms
- VCO frequency with quantize options
- Extended oscillator sync routing for VCO-2 to VCO-1 or VCO-3, and VCO-2 to VCO-1 or VCO-2
- Three Frequency Modulators (FM) for each VCO, including an extra assignable modulator with 35 source options
- Portamento with adjustable VCO-2 and VCO-3 delay settings
- Smart portamento enhances polyphonic performance in a more musical fashion
- Customizable options for PPC (Proportional Pitch Control) for Pitch Bend (+/-12 semitone range) and PPC modulation (+/-7 semitone range)
- Noise generator with white and pink, with additional violet and brown noise colors
- Ring mod, and now cross-modulation between the VCOs possible through the assignable FM menus
- Greatly expanded LFO options with two discrete LFOs, each with sine, triangle, square, sawtooth, and ramp waveforms, and options for mono or poly, key reset, and sync. Additional waveshaping options with pulse width and delay amount
- Sample/Hold Mixer with assignable modulation sources
- VCF filter emulation based on the three versions: Rev 1 4023 (12 dB/Oct, 2-pole) from the 2800; Rev 2 4035 (24 dB/Oct, 4-pole, ladder) from the 2810; and Rev 3 4075 (24 dB/Oct, 4-pole cascade) from the 2820
- Highpass filter
- Lowpass, bandpass, and highpass responses on all three VCFs
- Selectable gain compensation on both 4-pole filters so you don’t lose bass at high resonance
- Adjustable VCA drive
- Individually assignable modulation controls in the mixer for VCOs, VCF and VCA with 33 possible sources
- Two full ADSR Envelope Generators with velocity control
- Trimmer-style Drift controls for VCO, VCF, and EG
- Matching UI panel designs for Models 2800, 2810, and 2820 with UI lock option and hideable panel for keyboard and effects
