Oberheim OB-X8 8-voice Polyphonic Analog Synthesizer

Oberheim OB-X8 8-voice Polyphonic Analog Synthesizer


The name Oberheim is practically synonymous with audio synthesizers, with founder Tom Oberheim considered one of the most influential figures in the history of the music industry. Nearly four decades since the last official Oberheim instrument, the juggernaut manufacturer reemerges with Oberheim himself steering the ship. Celebrating Oberheim's triumphant return is the OB-X8 polyphonic analog synthesizer, paying homage to the illustrious OB series by faithfully re-creating three of its models within a single synthesizer. By combining all the primary features of the OB-X, OB-Xa, and OB-8 models, the OB-X8 contains a selection of the most unforgettable and iconic synth sounds of the '80s, complete with individual filter types and all the presets that made each a standout instrument. An all-analog signal path means the OB-X8 is just as sonically warm and full as its older siblings, with labelled sections containing tactile buttons and knobs for easy and complete control of your sound. Its 61-key FATAR keyboard is both velocity and -touch sensitive, providing unlimited options for expressive playing at your fingertips. And though the OB-X8 is a "classic" synthesizer, modern optimizations in the form of an OLED screen and MIDI/USB compatibility make it the perfect addition to any synthesist's arsenal. Don't miss out on the long-awaited return of one of the synthesizer's pillars of design and ingenuity!
