Our Prodyssey has some modifications for the reason of polyphony, which I think is an important point. The duophonic mode by splitting the oscillators had to be left away, the drone mode is no more available and the repeat mode had to be modified for that reason. Some might say the original modes were essential, I prefer to have polyphony. I mean we are keyboarders, right? If I wanted to play monophonically only, I could have stuck with my flute lessons in the kindergarden. We of course messured the modulation depth, but it is adjustable...see lower left corner on the second page of the device. We also think that some of the really nurdish stuff shouldn't be rebuilt, like the lfo not restarting after the fourth note, it simply makes no sence with polyphony. But all other aspects are modelled to greatest detail, the dsp modules weren't just taken from the shelf. When you compare our device to the oddity simply go for some fm on the oscillators and on the filter with high resonance, do this by using the S&H mixer with noise, and you'll hear the difference. The Oddity simply sounds blurred with these modulations, which certainly comes from slower calculation or in other words less accuracy of their algorithm. That's the point where you really need to compare. And if it feels right, it is right! And this feeling does not come from features like not restarting something after the fourth note. BTW we already had a proto when the oddity came out and Prodyssey really fits well into the Noah concept, so we saw no reason to stop.
Best, Matthias.
