Favourite Synths : Episode 2 : Oberheim OB-8


video upload by Luke Million

"In Episode 2 of 'My Favourite Synths' we're taking a look at my favourite synth of all time, the Oberheim OB-8

I have used this Polyphonic Analog Powerhouse on nearly every original song, official remix, recreation and audio/visual project I have produced since I acquired it over 15 years ago.

And this is my longest video to date, clocking in at just over 30 minutes!

The OB-8 is recorded through a Universal Audio Volt 476 and the individual voice panning is set to about a 20% width.

Released in 1983, the Oberheim OB8 is a premium analog synthesizer with 8 voices of polyphony, the ability to split and double sounds, individual panning for each of the voices, 3 LFOs, Polyphonic Portamento and an Arpeggiator."
