Oberheim Official OB-X8 Comparison posts
"In the third and final side-by-side comparison, Marcus Ryle, co-designer of the Oberheim OB-X8 and an Oberheim engineer from 1980 to 1985, discusses how the OB-8 differs from the other OB synths including some details on the original electronic design in the vintage product.
Next he compares a selection of factory presets from the old and new, elaborating on some sound design tips that help you learn how these classic sounds were created.
All examples are recorded direct in mono, without EQ or effects.
The new OB-X8 — true Oberheim sound. Listen and judge for yourself.
