E.O.J., you got pretty lucky there. Phil Cirocco is quite possibly THE top
ARP tech in the country! Only a very few people (including Kevin Lightner)
can match Phil C. On top of that, I'm pretty sure he hasn't worked on
Odysseys for a long time (he has his own modules, in addition to supplying
replacement 'potted' circuits, and I think he still does 2600 work). Check
him out at

And yeah, the ARP filters are generally not considered as 'warm' as Moogs,
but they do have a nice character all their own. Still very musical. And
personally, I think the ARP Odyssey is one of the best analog mono designs
out there. It's amazing what they crammed into that box. 
 
Oh wait, what I meant to say was

THERE! NOW maybe we can get back to arguing about synths, VCFs, VCF
lawsuits, grammar and spelling!
