Pearlman by making his innovative inventions publicly accessible, and inspiring future generations to imagine and create.THE ARP ODYSSEY…“The Odyssey was ARP’s primary lead/solo synthesizer. It was designed for musicians who wanted more control than the preset-oriented Soloist could provide, but didn’t want the large size and patch cables of the 2600. Over its 8-year lifespan, the Odyssey went through three versions. The changes between them were sonic, cosmetic, and functional – to the point where musicians of today often consider the Odyssey to have existed as three distinct instruments.”
