The ARP Odyssey produces my favorite sounds ever. Amazing video….Thank you Alex!

As I find people starting out with synths, I'm going to point them to this, it covers the basics better than any other video I've come across. Also found some nice ideas for my Odyssey 😁

I think of Tony as the true heart of Genesis, the one member who, if it ever came down to it, is completely indispensable. His harmonic arrangements, the ideas of simultaneous chording (admittedly a technique that he and Ant Phillips seemed to have come up with spontaneously), the song structures, and more, are a result of his constantly working musical mind. I’m please to find that his musical tastes are as eclectic (or, “catholic” as posh, old school sorts might say) as mine- blues, Impressionism, Sibelius, Rachmaninov, Pet Sounds-era Beach Boys, vintage country/western and R&B, jazz, rockabilly, etc. I love how he’s distilled these influences into a band sound that, memorably, exceeds the sum of its parts. Great interview, although I’m probably not the impartial authority on that, since I find any interview with Tony Banks to be quite absorbing. And a respectful, , knowledgeable, conversational (and cute) interviewer. Nice work, I’ll be tuning in for more.

19:16 oddly enough, Musicians Unions said the same thing about the Mellotrons back in the 1960’s. Heck, Bob Moog once commented on this saying: “I was never worried that synthesizers would replace musicians. First of all, you have to be a musician in order to make music with a synthesizer. And second, I never thought that analog synthesizer sounds would ever be mistaken for traditional musical instrument sounds.” As Tony said, back then people were taken aback by something that sounds vaguely like a violin but looking back, it really doesn’t sound like it.

Love the blue colour

painful interview

as a musician BS. it's an engaging listen

💚 (pre Midi Man! ✨) Rest in Paradise Mr Lewis 🕯✨ Bless ⭐🙏🏾

No one ever talks about Tony's role in the Genesis losses. That would make a great interview, if people are ready to speak about it. Time is starting to run out. As there were only two left in the end and Mike is clearly the easy-going glue, then stories need to be told.

cute.

The Odyssey was my first synth 44 years ago.

Fabulous!

🔥🔥🔥

What a master class that was, thank you!

I love this, and all of Lisa's discussions on her awesome work and how she got here. However, I do have to ask why an audio KZbin channel such as this, is putting out an interview with the audio hard panned to the left initially and then hard panned to the right - makes it really uncomfortable to listen to. I am miffed!! In fact, the overall production of this video is utterly terrible.

The greatest keyboardist I ever witness.

A wonderful conversation. Thank you ladies 🙏🏾

Man, I've GOT to get me a suit like that!

Great demo! Really well put together. I was a bit disappointed that there was no choreography on this occasion.

Brilliant. Great ARP Tribute 👏

This was really cool! Thanks. Any idea exactly what year this was made?

Tony IS Genesis

70's Gabriel era Genesis is unbeatable .

Arp Axxe and Arp Odyssey I thought may get a mention as they were very popular too. Not sure if Tony ever used these?

How come i wasn't subscribed here ??? So as i'm here on this channel for the first time, first i have to say i'm in love with my arp gear, i had a voyager before but it didnt give me what i wanted, but when it comes to the sound palet, i'm much happyer with my arp reeditions, i love the enveloppes and the ring mod and the sawtooths in particular. Secondly i want to share this if anyone is interested to chat about; i'm going to mod my Odyssey FS too make it modular. Nothing complicated here since the arp implementation is so friendly to this task; if you look at how the 2600 is implemented, you'll get that all you have to do to get a modular odyssey is go to the switch row: your patch points are allready there, either remove the switches (nah) or add splitters or mixers (basic opamp circuits) where needed, or another trick would be to replace those two throw switches with three poles to send third to patch jacks (the most classy imo but you'd have to find adaptable switches and i'm not shure that would be very easy but worth seeking a bit), or you could replace switches with jack to make your ody faceplate look very close to what a 2600 is.... But as i own a TTSH (2600) that is EXACTLY the width of the odyssey (like if it was done on purpose, same circuits and components, not smd, but 80% of the original size, wich imo is perfect in nowadays), i'm planning to add an external box behind the ody with patch jacks being a bit higher than the ody to access them easy, and then i can put the ttsh on the top of that box (conected to the ody with proper cables and conectors, still usable without if i use the "splitters and mixers" option...), so once done i will have all my 2600 patch jax row on the upper side and the ody's on the lower side, and then i can patch them together very confortably and use the ody's kb for playing. HA! told you i was a fan, anyone intersted feel free to get in touch. i have a channel where i show my builds'n'sell, but i'm thinking about making a new one with more technicall stuff, tyhis project might be one of my first vids for the new channel... Advice or suggestions are very welcomed aswell. i think that kind od a moded modular ody combined with a 2600 wil be much more powerfull than using two 2600's (like some do) regarding options (sync, lfo, three different filters onm the ody FS).... I LOVE YOU GUYS. Alan Robert Pearlman will live forever...

Great 🎶

Great Interview!! Thank you!! (I was a bit surprised/confused about his Thriller "Cricket" answer here though..) Everyone know's now it was a Casio.... They raffled one off!! LOL!! ?? Just confused!! LOL!!

7:16 - start of 'Almustafa the Beloved' by George Duke, Billy Cobham, John Scofield, and Alphonso Johnson ❤

Thank you.

Awesome the Prince of Synth. Mr Marinelli is someone I have so much respect for because he is a great musician but has zero ego. He's in it for the right reason, the music and shares his talent by showing how it's done.

I loved the answer about dream team... looking for who's up and coming. What a fantastic answer!

great inteview to hear the stories with this gentllman musician life experiences

Most fascinating Synth in the world it's the Church Organ of Synthesizers

Nice to see Anthony and A.R.P Foundation meet ... First time i was astound by the Arp2600 was actualy Ozzy Ozborn demonstrating , the power of the envelopes was like smashing metal glass ! Never heard a synth do that ! .....25 years later I put all my savings in an Arp2500 clone or identical recreation and love it so much. It's the Church Organ of synthesizers

cool interview, Marinelli rules

🙌🔥🔥🔥

It's not just the new keyboards that give synthesizers additional expression. The Roland AE-30 Aerophone Pro wind synth is a great controller - and way beyond just notes and breath. I also convert the MIDI CCs to CVs for controlling Eurorack.

Absolutely fascinating!❤

Fantastic. Out of all my keyboards, my absolute favourite and the one I keep going back to is the ARP Odyssey. The 2600 is amazing too.

Anthony(The Prince of Synth)is one of those truly beautiful people who has an amazing gift and shares what he knows for the sake of making music better.

We love Anthony, here in the Italian Mafia Crew!!! 🍾🍾🍾

Fascinating discussion 👏👏👏

computers forces us to be programmers because of the latencey, players wont bond with computers until they become latencey free but since computers share so many resources and arnt really made with music in mind I dont see this programmer mentality slowing down and evetually people wont make music, computers will.

❤❤

Why sped up through the most significant byte at the end? 🥲

0:53 comPOSER 😂😂😂😂 lol. man i love Marinelli

This is awesome! I would love to hear more about Anthony's earlier days in commercials.

An adorable instant with Anthony, merci beaucoup Arp.

Poser? I think not! :)
