5. Instruccions de funcionament

The Behringer ODYSSEY is an analog synthesizer designed for sound creation and performance. Its intuitive layout allows for direct manipulation of sound parameters.

5.1 Oscillators (VCOs)

The ODYSSEY features two true analog Voltage Controlled Oscillators (VCOs) for generating core waveforms. Each VCO offers sawtooth, square/pulse with pulse-width modulation, and sine/square wave LFO options. Adjust the frequency, fine-tune, and pulse width controls to shape the initial sound.

5.2 Filters (VCFs)

Explore the 3-way multi-mode Voltage Controlled Filters (VCFs) to sculpt the timbre of your sound. These filters allow you to control the cutoff frequency and resonance, providing a wide range of tonal possibilities from subtle warmth to aggressive sweeps.

5.3 Envelope Generators (ADSR)

Two dedicated ADSR (Attack, Decay, Sustain, Release) envelope generators control the amplitude and filter modulation. Adjust these parameters to create dynamic sounds, from sharp percussive hits to long, evolving pads.

5.4 Seqüenciador i arpegiador

The built-in 32-step sequencer allows you to program melodic patterns, while the arpeggiator generates rhythmic sequences from held notes. These tools enhance performance and composition capabilities.

5.5 Klark Teknik FX

Integrate the Klark Teknik FX processor to add professional-grade effects to your sound, enhancing depth and character.
