Korg has been reissuing some of their classic hardware to much praise from loyal fans, newcomers, and synthesis veterans alike. And just as the manufacturer did for their legendary MS-20 synthesizer, Korg has now released the ARP Odyssey FS Kit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Korg ARP Odyssey kit is identical to the models built in the factory, so you can rest assured your kit version will function the same as the original thing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moreover, Korg has used three different filter types during the Odyssey\u2019s life, and the three filters are all available on the new Odyseey kit model. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In practice, you assemble the boards, keyboard, and case yourself. And each kit has its own unique serial number plate, so some Odyssey kits may become collector’s items in the future!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, the kit itself will arrive in a number of sections and won’t require any soldering skills. As a result, the kit will be accessible to a wider audience and not just people with expertise in engineering. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nevertheless, you’ll be connecting cables between boards and fitting caps once they\u2019re mounted in place while faders and switches are in already place. Ultimately, the Korg ARP Odyssey FS kit offers a fun challenge to newcomers and those with experience with the added benefit of knowing you built it. Oh, and the front panel gives you the orange-on-black ARP Odyssey Rev.3 design, but you can always redecorate its look. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Availability<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The limited Korg ARP Odyssey Kit will be available from March for $1,899, though Korg hasn’t yet said how many they are planning on making.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
