I came across this book written by David Friend and Alan R Pearlman.  If you weren't aware ARP are Alan's initials. Ha and David Friend are the ARP's designers and the 2600 was originally intended as an educational instrument to help people understand synthesis.

David Friend also help Korg design their new ARPs.

Anyway... this book is no longer in print so I'm sure I'm not breaking any copyright by sharing it.

It uses the Odyssey as a way to help teach synthesis... just a cool little oddity I thought you might like.

Thanks for this. The second link goes to an empty folder.

I own an original copy of the ARP book. I played with an original 2600 at a Music Educator’s National Conference (regional) vendor show. It was more than a college student could afford, however, I did get a copy of the owner’s manual around that time and I highly recommend it. In previous years at MENC, I saw the Moog Modular and the Roland Modular. My professors got me a month of private lessons on the University of Washington Buchla 100. I’m now 69 and play my Behringer 2600 with a 0-CTRL for that Buchla 100 feel (the 100 had more touch plates w/better sensitivity plus 8 and 16-step 4-channel+triggers sequencers). I’m hoping for a 0-CTRL 16 some day. Oh, and it was a Quad Studio (on my short list). The final exam was to make a realistic sounding ping-pong ball go around the room. Looking forward to your MicroKorg ideas. I’ve been thinking about running the 2600 though my Micro’s considerable effects section (fishing for anything you’ve published on this).
