The keyboard feels fine, no dust inside, sounds really nice and rich like a 70&#8217;s analog should. The only real problem is that the sliders are sticky. I&#8217;m not really looking forward to cleaning them but they do need it. <\/p>\n<p>One of the cool things I didn&#8217;t even realize is that this synth has 1\/8th inch jacks on the back for CV, Trigger and Gate so I should be able to interface it with my modular. It also has an External In jack so I could easily add extra oscillators from the module to thicken the sound if I want. <\/p>\n<p>And since I still plan on getting the new Korg Arp Odyssey in the fall I can compare it and see if they got the sound right. These old synths really do sound better so I hope they are aiming to match that.<\/p>\n<p>It also came in a cool flight case that I guess ti was originally sold in. I don&#8217;t have much use for it, but it&#8217;s cool nonetheless!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/scotteh\/14214797169\" title=\"Arp Axxe Arrives-Flight Case by Scott Rogers, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/farm4.staticflickr.com\/3919\/14214797169_3b5c2b6cc1.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"358\" alt=\"Arp Axxe Arrives-Flight Case\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Now&#8230; can I stop buying?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Well, I wasn&#8217;t going to get anything else, but Paul&#8217;s Boutique had an Arp Axxe sitting there for quite a while and I just couldn&#8217;t resist!
