Introduction

The unit is carefully calibrated at the factory. The performance may change over time or due to environmental changes,

and the following recalibration procedures can be used to bring it back to its factory settings. If you do not feel comfortable

doing these calibrations, then we recommend they are done by an experienced audio service technician. This is especially true

for those units that need to be opened to gain access to voltage test points and calibration potentiometers.

CAUTION: Incorrect calibration or damage may lead to the unit becoming inoperable.

Note: Although re-calibration will not invalidate the warranty, any damage caused during re-calibration may invalidate

the warranty.

Synthesizers and Samplers ODYSSEY Preparation Make sure your ODYSSEY has been powered on for at least 1 hour, and that it is in a place where the temperature will not change drastically while performing the calibration. Remove all cables from the unit. The calibrations require access to connector X12 on the bottom surface of the main printed circuit board (PCB).

Synthesizers and Samplers ODYSSEY Carefully slide the top panel forward about an inch, until its front edge clears the keyboard keys. Do not strain the two ribbon cables to the keyboard. Carefully lift up the front edge until you see the two ribbon cables coming from the keyboard. Then disconnect these two ribbon cables from the bottom of the main pcb. Locate the connector X12 on the bottom of the main PCB.

Synthesizers and Samplers ODYSSEY CV Calibration Procedure Follow all steps in the order in which they are presented. Key names and LEDs In this mode, the buttons have new functions: There are four test modes A / B / C / D to be calibrated. Their target voltage is -5 V / 0 V / 5 V / 8 V respectively. Button Name Function Button Name Function HOLD/REST Select test mode A STEP1 Select X1 (about ±1 mV) RESET/ACCENT Select test mode B STEP2 Select X2 (about ±4.

Synthesizers and Samplers ODYSSEY Press “KYBD + STEP” and then power up; all the LEDs will light up in sequencer. Then press “Shift + KYBD + STEP” to enter user CV calibration. Press “PAGE” to select “CV_OUT” channel, then measure CV_OUT point with a multimeter. Press “HOLD/REST” to select test mode A. You need to watch the multimeter to adjust the output voltage. You can press “KYBD” or “STEP” to adjust the CV value until it is close to target level “-5 V”.

Synthesizers and Samplers ODYSSEY Press “PLAY/STOP” to select “CV2” channel, then measure CV2 point with multimeter. Press “HOLD/REST” to select test mode A. You need to watch the multimeter to adjust the output voltage. You can press “KYBD” or “STEP” to adjust the CV value until it is close to target level “-5 V”. (Press “STEP1” “STEP2” “STEP3” or “STEP4” to select the size of voltage increments : “X1” “X2” “X3” or “X4”) Press “RESET/ACCENT” to select test mode B.

Synthesizers and Samplers ODYSSEY Turn off the power and unplug the power connector. Make sure the two ribobon cable to the keyboard are correctly inserted and secured to the bottom of the main PCB. Refit the top panel back into the bottom chassis and secure with all the screws.
