INSPIRATION

Real Analog Soul
HX-ODDY is based on the world's first duophonic analog synth, a capable and expressive 3-octave keyboard instrument with design heritage from the renowned 2500 and 2600 modular synthesizers. With heaps of configuration potential, oscillator cross-modulation, and its ARP 4023 SVF-like filters, the ODDY explored a broad and unique sonic range, notable both for its ability to mimic natural instruments, and an exceptionally rich analog character.

Portable Powerhouse
Debuting in 1972, it was ahead of its time, offering powerful performance features, outstanding analog sound, color-coded controls, preset patch panel overlays to aid in programming, all contained in a small and portable form-factor. Its unique voice quality and analog character has kept it a sought-after instrument, and while it has seen numerous evolutions and reissues over the years, for us nothing beats the original white-face Mk1, which we used exclusively in the development of HX-ODDY.

INSTRUMENT

A modern instrument with the unmistakable sound of iconic hardware

Hybrid-X Engine
As with all of our vintage instruments, HX-ODDY delivers a deep sampling of the hardware, but it excels in two important ways; the addition of two new layers of hardware-based wavetables, and physically-modeled filters - giving you three sample layers in total to configure, all with the analog charm you know and love. Like our chosen hardware, this unique combination of features creates a powerful and compelling sonic tool with incredible character.

Hardware Sound, Exemplified
The sample-based wavetable oscillators in HX-ODDY give you entirely new dimensions with which to explore. Capturing the hardware in its full range, you have greater flexibility and nuance over the raw instrument sound than ever before. The best part, you still get our top-tier sample layers, with hand-crafted sounds lovingly designed here at UVI.

Inspiring Presets
Bass, Brass, FX, Keys, Leads, Pads, Pluck, Sequences, Arps, in the end you get access to 280 presets, including a special bank capturing sounds from the original factory patchbook. Assembled from a library of 13,000+ hardware samples, arranged into 183 layers, HX-ODDY sounds alive with analog soul, offering a wide range of useful and inspiring patches. The multi-layer architecture means you can create stacks and modulation with ease, opening the door to countless possibilities.

Creative Architecture
HX-ODDY provides a powerful and versatile toolset for both customizing existing patches, and creating your own. 2 hardware-based wavetable oscillators and a sample-based oscillator feed a pair of analog-modeled filters, all with ADSR envelopes and numerous, easy to configure modulation points. A powerful arpeggiator/phraser with plenty of presets allows you to create rich sequences, and a featured array of both macro and studio effects is available for everything from deep sonic manipulation to fine surgical shaping.

A revered classic reimagined with the very best of our hardware sampling know-how and DSP magic, HX-ODDY delivers new sonic inspiration with real analog soul.

HX Series Instruments
HX-ODDY is a member of UVI's HX Series of instruments, offering an unparalleled hardware sound thanks to a triple threat of sample-based oscillators combined with physically-modeled filters.
