The Oberheim OB-X8 is a legendary analog synthesizer that delivers a rich and powerful sound. This vintage synthesizer is highly regarded among musicians and producers for its unique sound and wide sound manipulation possibilities.
The OB-X8 features eight voice polyphony. Each voice is fed by three analog oscillators, offering a variety of sonic possibilities. You can create full and rich keyboard instrument sounds, synthetic sounds, solo passages and much more.
The OB-X8 also features a huge variety of controls that allow you to edit and shape the sound to your liking. You can control frequency, resonance and modulation filters, adjust envelopes, change oscillators and their mixing, and much more. With these options, you can achieve a wide range of sonic textures and effects.
One of the key features of the OB-X8 is its ability to create a rich and spatial sound thanks to its integrated effects processor. Effects such as chorus, flanger, delay and more are available to add dimension and depth to your sounds.
The Oberheim OB-X8's design is also very robust and high quality. Every detail has been carefully designed and manufactured to provide maximum reliability and performance. Its iconic look with keyboard and controls gives you intuitive operation and quick direct access to all functions.
With its exceptional sound quality and unique character, the Oberheim OB-X8 is an essential tool for musicians looking for authenticity and creativity in their sound. Its vintage character and rich sonic possibilities make it an inspired choice for making music in the studio or in live performances.
