The Syntaur Sub-Oscillator is not really specific to the ARP Odyssey. In = fact, I tested it in my Sequential Circuit Pro-One, and it sounded = fantastic. I used alligator clips, though, rather than making a = permanent change to my vintage synth. On the other hand, there=E2=80=99s a lot to be said for Syntaur=E2=80=99s = specific installation instructions for the ARP Odyssey. Not everyone is = comfortable figuring out where the connections should be made based on = nothing but a schematic. It might be a bit of work to create a tutorial = video that is oriented towards installing the Syntaur Sob-Oscillator in = the KORG Odyssey.
