Omni Demo

 Released in 1976, the Omni was ARP's biggest seller. It is an analog synth with preset Orchestral String sounds. It has polyphonic Violin and Viola waveforms as well as monophonic Bass and Cello waveforms. It is split into 3 sections: Strings, Synthesizer, and Bass synth - all simultaneously available. It has traditional, and simple VCA, VCF, and LFO controls for contouring your sounds, as well as a nice chorus, that really thickens up the string sound. The Omni has one main oscillator, that is a divided down organ. It has no voices, in the standard sense like a prophet. There are no program memeories either.  The Omni 2 was released a year latter. Which is basicly the same as the omni but with some improvements.
 
I own an ARP Omni 1, and will gladly take questions regarding the omni. I am not a technican, so I may not be able to answer all of your questions? If I can not answer your question? I will point you to someone who can. Just click, the Contact Me link, to send me an email.
