OB-Xf - a great sounding Oberheim from the Surge team


video upload by abominable music

"OB-Xf is an open source (GPL3 license) project from the Surge team aiming to recreate the sound of the classic Oberheim OB-X. Available as a standalone application on macOS, Windows, and Linux (VST3, AU, LV2, CLAP formats). Building on existing work from 2DaT and discoDSP (OB-Xd) and still in Beta, this can be downloaded from the developer Github repo: https://github.com/surge-synthesizer/...
The synth doesn't have effects, I'm using Valhalla Supermassive for reverb in these demos

My custom patches are available for free on my KoFi page: https://ko-fi.com/s/6419dc9bea"
