With precision-crafted and circuit-modeled DSP designs from the award-winning developer Mark Barton, ODC 2800 goes beyond merely emulating ARP’s “Model 2800” synthesizer. ODC 2800 not only provides an authentic reproduction of the sound and appearance of all three versions of the original hardware, but also enhances the experience with expanded polyphony, an additional oscillator and LFO, extensive modulation options, and support for both velocity and polyphonic aftertouch. Furthermore, it features a redesigned and intuitive integrated effects suite that simplifies the sound design process and improves usability. ODC 2800 offers the ultimate sonic journey through time, connecting the past of synthesis innovation with today's essential tools for music production!
Cherry Audio has condensed all of the innovation and history into one of its most significant virtual synthesizer releases. Its proprietary DSP coding accurately replicates all of the sonic nuances of all three original hardware revisions. It also enhances the experience with additional functionality and modulation options, making it the ultimate version of the classic synth. The user interface includes matching designs for Models 2800, 2810, and 2820. You can lock the design to your favorite, and hide a lower panel for the keyboard and effects, now easily accessible through a new tray.
The duophonic architecture has been upgraded to support Monophonic, Mono Legato, Duophonic, and Polyphonic modes. Users can choose from 1, 4, 8, or 16 voices, along with a unison mode. The synth supports velocity, channel aftertouch, and polyphonic aftertouch with three assignable controls. It also includes adjustable portamento settings and a CS-80-like "smart portamento" for enhanced musicality. The syncable dynamic arpeggiator includes Swing, Chance, and Feel to add degrees of randomness and a human touch to arpeggiated patterns.
ODC 2800 has also been expanded to include three complete VCOs with sawtooth and square/pulse waveforms, with quantizable frequency control and extended oscillator sync routing. Each VCO has three frequency modulators (FM), including an assignable modulator offering 35 source options. Ring modulation is straightforward, and cross-modulation is now possible through assignable FM menus.
The LFO options have been significantly expanded, now featuring two separate LFOs with five waveforms and options for mono and poly modes, key reset, sync, pulse width, and delay. The Sample/Hold Mixer allows for assignable modulation of the VCF and VCA, with 35 predefined modulation sources.
ODC 2800's VCF emulation features three filters: the Mk I 4023 (12 dB/Oct, 2-pole), the Mk II 4035 (24 dB/Oct, 4-pole ladder), and the Mk 4075 (24 dB/Oct, 4-pole cascade). Each offers lowpass, bandpass, and highpass responses, with optional gain compensation to prevent bass loss at high resonance. A separate highpass filter is also included.
The envelopes have also been expanded, with two complete ADSR envelope generators with velocity control and trimmer-style drift controls for VCO, VCF, and EG to further emulate the analog vibe.
ODC 2800 features a resourceful new effects strip with accessible controls for toggling effects, soloing tracks, and adjusting the dry/wet mix. Global controls allow for enabling all effects, changing the overall level, and expanding the stereo width. The expanded effects tray includes five studio-quality pedal-style options: Distortion/EQ, Dual Phaser, Flanger/Chorus, three Delays, and five Reverbs.
ODC 2800 also includes comprehensive MIDI mapping for controllers, seamless DAW integration, and over 330 professional presets across 13 categories, making it an essential virtual instrument for vintage synth lovers and modern music producers.
The design and release of the ODC 2800 synthesizer caps off Cherry Audio's month-long celebration of the life and work of visionary synth pioneer Alan R. Pearlman on the 100th anniversary of his birth. Cherry Audio will donate a portion of the profits from its June website sales of ODC 2800 to the Alan R. Pearlman Foundation, a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization which supports the legacy of innovation represented by ARP Instruments and the Odyssey. Additionally, when you make a purchase from the Cherry Audio store, you will have the opportunity to donate to the ARP Foundation. These contributions will help support their efforts to make Pearlman's inventions publicly accessible and inspire future generations to imagine and create.
