The right size
The OB-X8 synthesizer has been universally praised for bringing the classic Oberheim sound to a whole new generation. And now, all of the OB-X8's presets, synthesis parameters and sound editing controls are accessible in a compact package that will fit into any creative space.
The new desktop version of the OB-X8 has everything the keyboard version has, except for the 61-note Fatar keyboard and pitch and modulation levers, but that won't stop you from experiencing the full sonic power of the Oberheim OB-X, OB-Xa and OB-8 in a package that's compact enough for any size studio and convenient enough to take on the road!
Think small, play big
The OB-X8 module features the same sound engine as the keyboard version, with a fully analog signal path, VCOs, VCAs and discrete filters. With its one-button-one-function ergonomics, you have immediate access to virtually all of the synth's parameters, allowing you to create your own sounds with ease and precision.
Pure analogue
The OB-X8's audio signal path is entirely analog, full of warmth and power. It's the same distinctive Oberheim sound that made iconic tracks like Prince's 1999, Van Halen's Jump, and Rush's Tom Sawyer unforgettable. And now it's yours to enhance your own music.
New sounds
The classic OB factory sounds you know from countless recordings are all here. But that's not all: our network of world-renowned sound designers has created some stunning new sounds especially for the OBX8. And because the OB-X8 has a set of clear, easy-to-understand controls, creating your own sounds is as simple as turning a few knobs and
and saving the ones you like.
Three in One
The OB-X8 combines the three different voice architectures of the OB-X, OB-Xa and OB-8 into one instrument. The specific filter types and other unique features of each model have been faithfully reproduced, giving you the most authentic OB experience possible. You can even mix elements from the different models to create sounds that are impossible to achieve with the originals. There has never been an OB series synthesizer so powerful and versatile.
Page 2022
OB connoisseurs know that the many features of "Page 2? reveal the hidden power of the original OB-X, OB-Xa and OB-8.
We've incorporated all of the original Page 2 parameters and added new ones for 2022, giving you direct access to over 40 nuance controls such as additional SEM filter modes, per-voice panning, LFO keyboard tracking, modulation delay time and envelope inversion, independent pulse width control, and much more.
