The perfect fit
The OB-X8 synthesiser has been universally praised for bringing the classic Oberheim sound to a new generation. And now all the OB-X8 presets, synthesis functions and sound editing controls are available in a compact package that fits into any creative space.
The new OB-X8 desktop version has everything the keyboard version has, with the exception of the 61-voice Fatar keybed and pitch and modulation levers. But don't let that stop you from experiencing all the sonic power of the Oberheim OB-X, OB-Xa and OB-8 in a format that's compact enough for studios of any size and convenient enough to take on the road!
Think Small, Play Big
The OB-X8 desktop module features an identical sound engine to the keyboard version and offers an all-analogue signal path with discrete VCOs, VCAs and filters. And thanks to the knob-per-function principle, you have instant access to virtually all of the synthesiser's parameters, so you can create your own unique sounds with ease and precision.
Pure analogue!
The audio signal path of the OB-X8 is completely analogue and is bursting with warmth and punch. It's the same signature Oberheim sound that made iconic tracks like Prince's "1999", Van Halen's "Jump" and Rush's "Tom Sawyer" so memorable. And now you can enrich your own music with this sound.
Completely new sounds
The classic OB Series factory sounds you know from countless recordings are all here. But that's just the beginning: our network of world-class sound designers has developed stunning new sounds especially for the OB-X8. And because the OB-X8 has clear and easy-to-understand controls, creating your own sounds is as simple as turning a few knobs and saving the sounds you want.
Three in one
The OB-X8 combines the three different voice architectures of the OB-X, OB-Xa and OB-8 into a single instrument. The individual filter types and other unique characteristics of each model have been faithfully recreated so that you can experience the OB as authentically as possible. You can even mix elements from different models to create sounds that were never possible with the originals. Never before has a synthesiser from the OB series been so powerful and versatile.
Page 2022
OB aficionados know that the countless "Page 2 functions unleash the hidden power of the original OB-8. We've taken all the classic Page 2 parameters and created new ones for the 2022, giving you direct access to more than 40 nuanced controls, such as additional SEM filter modes, per-voice panning, LFO keyboard tracking, mod delay time and envelope inversion, independent pulse width control and much more.
