I'm hoping Korg will fix the preset issue eventually. iM1 can transfer presets so they'll probably make it happen.
I want them to publish the midi CC list. I did tweet them so will wait and see.
It's got sample and hold. Kind of random. And random arp sequence.
Maybe they just pulled a reverse Spinal Tap. These go to 8.
The manual says that polyphony (and I assume unison voices) dependent on model of iPad. Maybe Pro users get the 8?
Maybe! Though I might have expected to see someone chip in somewhere with confirmation by now
Hope so, I made about 10 presets in the standalone app before I discovered I couldn't read them in Gadget. Slightly miffed I was.
We don't want to be seen to be lording it over you etc. (Just tested it though and can't get unison/voices above 8 on the Big Boy).
Confirmed: Midi CC in stand alone mode is exactly the same as the default mappings in Gadget. If I get time I'll type up a specification.
What is it with Korg and MIDI ?
They make great apps, allways lacking proper MIDI implementation and documentaion. At least in inital versions.
And what about Link ?
is there a way of showing the CC numbers from within Gadget?
Yes. Open Lexington, click Function in the bottom left corner, and a black box opens in the bottom right corner with all of the default CC mappings. Write them down. Now program these in your controller, and open ODYSSEi in stand alone mode, twiddle, smile.
My initial list of ODYSSEi bugs and requests:
-Midi is promiscuous. Need to be able to select a specific midi input.
-on screen keyboard only works when midi channel is set to Omni
-tempo does not listen to IAA host's clock when loaded as an IAA instrument.
-needs LINK
-needs more convenient midi learn than having to program my controller to its hard wired cc numbers.
And wishlist item, send midi CC values on preset load so my BCR2000 updates its knob values (like with the Moog apps!)
That's it. Otherwise perfect synth.
oh great, don't know how I missed that, thanks
Does the tempo sync, or at least the LFO, with Gadget tempo when used inside Gadget ? Arp is not so much of an issue here as you can use the Gadget Arp or sequence from Gadget, but the LFO would be preferred.
It seems that this is suffering slightly from the same niggles I have with iPolysix and iMS-20 - they don't sync with anything very well as the only real sync option is WIST. Which is a real shame because they are all great sounding synths......Perhaps not having the sync makes them like the originals which wouldn't have had sync, but having the option would be nice.
Yes of course!
That is good to hear, at least it can be loaded into Gadget and then synced to other apps using Link or MIDi clock
Well I've come to the conclusion that while not perfect, this is one of the best synths ever. I like it that much, that if I had the money, I would buy the hardware version too!
Ok so here are the CC numbers. I used an online photo editor and pasted from screen grabs so it's a bit rough n dirty and hopefully i didn't miss any....
Thanks a lot @Carnbot
So, is it really the bees knees for an emulation ? I'm not a synth dude and as such have little experience of the 'real thing' (apart from a Casio CZ5000) I always thought the Gadge synths were 'good enough' if not the last word in emulations, is this one a step up ?
I've never used any of the hardware Oddys, but have used lots of old hardware synths. This all aside, this sounds so good, I don't care if it copies the original or not. It's just a damn good synth and well up there with in the top tier of iOS synths.
Do the IAP presets transfer over to Gadget?
Edit: Also, are they better then the stock presets? (Or "different" if you will:)
I like them, and you know, more.
YES, they are available within Gadget (wish that user presets made in the standalone were also...)
Great thanks. Yea the stock presets where a bit bread and butter..y. Only a couple more "out there" sounds, but I guess playing it safe with stock presets is...well safer. :-)
I feel like I am getting mixed signals. Is this synth worth getting or does it lack ?
Can't imagine you won't like it.
Ah that would explain it, I was using MIDI tracks... thanks!
How long is a piece of etc? But it's a better than worthy addition to the canon, the rest will be up to your own needs, current arsenal etc.
For me it is worth it; KORG has really hit something special with Gadget and the associated apps, Module and iM1, of which I own both (don't have their other synths tho); So, with a high quality synth-of-my-dreams emulation available for both my pad and phone, in or out of Gadget, $20 seems like a huge bargain.
Have you been able to transfer presets from iM1 on iPad to Darwin on iPhone?
