Mo's Lotion Registered: Wed, 12 Oct 2005 12:00:00 Posts: 151 Loc: Manchester	Oooh, ooh, ooh... Almost forgot... for THAT vibrato sound, raise LFO CV into OSC 1 - Phew! Would it be easier if I upload an Oddy template somewhere?

JesperDK Registered: Mon, 11 Aug 2003 12:00:00 Posts: 593 Loc: Denmark	Hi Mo`s Lotion! THANKS - really really GREAT - even more POWER!!! And I think you are just right: Maybe a big surprise to many people...the Roland JP8000 is actually a really really great substitude for the Arp - you can program some reeaaaly GREAT Currie-leads using the Feedback OSC!!! Thanks again and all the best! JesperDK

Yeah - can you email me your Oddity's bank file please (the .PBK file) - the once containing this sound so I can try it out? Many Thanks Scott

Mo's Lotion Registered: Wed, 12 Oct 2005 12:00:00 Posts: 151 Loc: Manchester	The template I have will have to be scanned, as it's from an original ARP Odyssey template I did about 17 years ago!! I'll see how close I can recreate it on the Oddity and put up a link.

Scott McPhee Newbie Registered: Tue, 07 Feb 2006 12:00:00 Posts: 17 Loc: Lanarkshire, Scotland	That would be great - sorry, I thought you had re-created it in the Oddity, If anyone has any other cool Oddity or Oscar banks - email them to me and I would be glad to host them. Scott

JesperDK Registered: Mon, 11 Aug 2003 12:00:00 Posts: 593 Loc: Denmark	Hi Gazza! Unfortunately I don`t have the Oddity anymore or the great lead patch I did, but try and mail Scott or Flip - people here are always very helpful! If I were you, then I would buy the Billy Currie Signature soundset for the impOSCar! There are a lot of great sounds in there including the LGA lead! You can buy it here: http://www.gforcesoftware.com/signature_sounds.php Good luck! Jesper

Sleepwalker Registered: Tue, 18 Feb 2003 12:00:00 Posts: 2704 Loc: Edinburgh, Scotland	I also have a copy of Billy's ARP Odyssey 'Lead Sound' on an old patch sheet, that was given to me by the guy i bought my Odyssey from. It's spot on & even better when fed through either an Electric Mistress or MXR T-117 flanger Give me a shout if anyone would like a copy of this. I also have a patch sheet with Chris's 'Moog bass' patch for the Minimoog

Mo's Lotion Registered: Wed, 12 Oct 2005 12:00:00 Posts: 151 Loc: Manchester	Well, it's now official... Billy is using Gmedia's Oddity and VSM and Chris is using Minimonsta as part of their live setup - I guess it would be an obvious choice really. http://www.gforcesoftware.com/ Meanwhile, I'm waiting for an ARP Solus to arrive from the US. It's not working but I'm sure I can breathe some life into it

Mo's Lotion Registered: Wed, 12 Oct 2005 12:00:00 Posts: 151 Loc: Manchester	ARP Solus arrived yesterday at 3:30pm... Had it all working by 6:45pm Not quite as versatile as the Oddy, but still sounds great, and apart from not being able to modulate VCO 1 on it's own (I've a few modifications ready to go) it can do Billy's lead with no problem

Kevo X Registered: Sun, 20 May 2007 12:00:00 Posts: 67 Loc: London	I contacted Jouni offline and shared that Billy was using a Novation Remote SL Compact 49 to control most of his leads. Midge was using the Novation SL 61 as his main board.

atonyb Newbie Registered: Wed, 27 Jan 2010 12:00:00 Posts: 3 Loc: UK	Hi guys (first post) Could I ask very nicely if someone could share either a patch sheet or an oddity preset (or both, different attempts and views are helpful) for that classic billy currie lead? I can't believe I only just found this forum...
