    Looks like it requires iOS 9.3 and above :(

    Why the sad face. Ios9.3 works just fine - even on my aging iPad 4

    Ok, but Odyssei is not supported on IPad 4. Or is it only as Lexington in Gadget ?

    If the app it's not supported on the iPad. Then there's no gadget integration as it requires the app to be installed. Can't buy oddisey (or Lexington) from inside gadget.

    64 bit iPad models only.

    Right, so :( anyway..

  • It's a bummer when new Gadgets come out but can't be supported by aging hardware. My friend bought an IPad Pro just for the iM1. He said it was worth the price of admission just to even have a portable M1 wow now that is being a true fan of Korg. But then again not everyone has the economical resources.

    I'm lining up stuff to sell on eBay to upgrade my aging Air 1. These new apps are really getting so much more powerful and resource hungry.

    SO...how much are the IAP's?

    £3.99 each in UK store.

  • @u0421793 said:

    Interesting pic, but who is the handsome young man in the photo?!

  • Any midi learn or cutomizable with midi?

    Got this one with IAPs! Still waiting for iWavestation :D

    Waiting for your report Samu! :)

    It 'works' :)

    It's AB/IAA-Generator only and also adds a new 'Gadget' to Gadget. The IAPs add new presets and skins to the app.

    The stuff 'sequenced/arpeggiated' in the app doesn't carry over to Gadget only the base preset does since most of it can be automated in Gadget anyways.

    Maybe korg chose the name 'Lexington'(Steele) to show everyone they've got 'Balls' hahaha...

    I'm happy with it so far.
    Still waiting for iWavestation or 'Korg Sampler' :)

  • So regarding the standalone version, how is the sound? Can I make weird noises with lots of movement and expressiveness or is it more bread and butter, classic synth sounds? Cause I got enough of those already

  • edited November 2016

    First standalone Korg synth (not counting Module which is more of a pcm, sample instrument) with selectable midi in channels, its sequenceable via IAA as instrument...or is that generator, when you can play it from another midi keyboard/sequencer...? I forget.

    So far it feels bread n butter to me. Far more retro than modern sugar bytes-y morphy evolvey stuff. All of the youtube videos I watched on the hardware version give a good idea as to the sound potential i think. I am sure hardcore syntheads who know this stuff in and out would say I am an idiot, and yup, they are right!

  • Are there any other synths that can produce a similar sound? I've got most of them now, and while it does look like a lovely thing, I don't want to spend fifteen quid on something I can do already with...Polysix or Thor for example..

  • edited November 2016

    I was really hoping that the classic Wavestation would of been the next Korg synth to get on iOS and as a gadget and that Korg would make all their iOS synths AU compatible but it wasn't to be. :(

    However, It is good to see the Arp Oydyssey being on iOS as that synth was one of the synths used by Peter Howell and the BBC Radiophonic Workshop in the early 1980s to arrange my favourite version of the Dr Who theme tune but I am getting a little bored of analog emulations on iOS and would like to see the Wavestation or even the Trinity put on iOS.

  • Trinity and Wavestation Pleeeeeeeeease?

    It feels 'higher fidelity'. Smoother and silkier. Death to 32bit! etc. Glad i got it ultimately for that reason. Just feels like an upgrade (death) to a lot of previous synths I had used like Polysix or Thor. Like going from NTSC to HDTV, you can still watch the same episodes of Deadwood or Rome but now you see the facial pours and beads of sweat.

    @MonzoPro Yeah I hear ya with polysix and thor, i was in the same boat. But this one sounds very much next-gen. I'm sure there's more going on under the hood, much better clarity to the sound than polysix.

    iTuttle does some paraphonic action if ye have it.

    No, hadn't even heard of it, just checked a vid and sounds good though.

    Thanks guys. Ah ok, that sounds good - the new Moog was a bit like that, much richer sounding than my old synths. Worth the entry price then as I do find some of my synths a bit thin and harsh sounding.

  • Has anyone figured out if there is a midi CC implementation yet? It looks to me like the only way to automate the sliders is to load it in Gadget?

    I love Thor. Always will. And this isn't that, it's its own thing. But as regards the finish on the wood (as it were) def. feels/sounds bigger. Happy I have it, and I'm not a progger/analoguer by any means.

    I'd say Poison 202 approaches it but it's not an exact overlay - a lot of patches you can do on an Odyssey you could do on Poison. Among the differences are the Odyssey's pairing of a VC low pass filter then a high pass (non vc), and also the Odyssey's S+H mixer as a mod source (which isn't S+H, it is merely a mixer which precedes and feeds into the S+H, but when used elsewhere gives you a proportionally mixed pair of CV sources).

  • Dang, how can it not have Link?

    How quickly I've become dependent on Link....

    Easy to make the Poison-202 squeal :p

    Beeps, buzzes, swooshes, can't import samples (that I know of)... dude, it's exactly like Thor!

  • Crazy day given that Korg is one of the few companies that actually gets me to buy hardware, and arguably my favorite developer for iOS music apps. On the hardware side, I don't have any imminent plans to get a Minilogue (maybe in 2017, though), and the Monologue is a bit redundant with Arturia MicroBrute, which was probably my biggest hardware purchase this year.

    Between the Volca series and the microKORG XL+, which everyone craps on as some beginner VA synth, but is really a pretty useful piece of portable hardware, I really have to ask myself how much further beyond that I could justify going with hardware. I really enjoy tinkering with the stuff, but the cost/benefit analysis doesn't line up for me.

    Here's a reddit exchange about the (false) Volca Wave rumors:

    [–]Absolutely_Josh 2 points 47 minutes ago
    One of the guesses of the product released today was a Volca Wave. The Monologue sounds awesome!!...but got me thinking. Are there any plans to reissue or dive back into a Wavestation type of synthesizer??
    permalinkembed
    [–]nickkwasKorg Technology Product Specialist[S] 1 point 18 minutes ago
    Volca wave... i love that idea!! Those are very impressive mock-ups. We definitely love the Wavestation and we currently have it available in plugin format through Korg Legacy plugins! I can't say for sure whether we have anything in the works, but keep an eye out :)


    But on the iOS side, I think the ODESSEi is pretty cool, despite being surprisingly hard for me to spell. Compared to the discussion on hardware above, it seems almost foolish to obsess over whether Korg's new apps cost $20, $30, etc. They sound great and increasingly work with iPhone and integrate into Gadget now.

    Hmmm, think I'll have to do the thing later and get this beast.

    Cool. I did wonder if there was a bit of a Poison crossover going on, but I don't have that anyway (I've been on an iOS synth app diet for the last month) so I can justify getting this instead.

    I don't know why I'm even pretending to sit on the fence, I instantly buy anything Korg releases without a backward glance.
