"This one is in exceptional cosmetic condition and is working 100%. It is ready to be used and needs nothing! The tact switches are still nice and firm and do not feel like they were used much."

Published on Feb 13, 2018 Jaak Jensen

"The OB-Xa is a massive analog synthesizer with digital control, allowing for highly sophisticated and complex sounds while still maintaining an analog signal path. It has been fully restored and is currently for sale. It includes a very well padded and durable flight case that is in exceptional condition. See the video above for the condition of the unit and to get a taste of how it sounds.

0:00 - Intro
1:18 - A demonstration of the patches currently stored in memory
2:31 - Dual sawtooth patch with subtle portamento and filtering
3:02 - Dual square wave patch for an ambient pad
4:05 - Electric piano/rhodes/wurlitzer sound
4:40 - Wood block percussion sounds
4:54 - Mellotron-like synth pad
5:31 - VERY huge and gritty-sounding unison patch with pitch bending
5:58 - White noise demonstration and filtering
6:30 - Sparkly-sounding synth piano
7:02 - Dual sawtooth sound demonstrating the snappiness of the envelopes

We are hoping to sell this locally to someone in Minnesota but are open to offers outside the state if the offer seems legitimate and reasonable. If you would like to purchase this unit, please contact us at the following email addresses:
jens1438@umn.edu and eddieaudio@gmail.com

We are currently seeking offers in the $4950-$5950 range.

This particular one has 8 voices which can be split, layered and stored. They all featured patch memories in varying degrees. This one has 4 banks of 8 for a total of 32 patches. All models of OB-Xa featured the new Curtis chips which offered great stability for an analog synth and they are attributed to its great filters and sounds.

The OB-X was very similar to the OB-Xa except that its voices could not be split or layered and, more significantly, the OB-X had a lowpass-only discrete SEM 12dB/oct state variable filter, which had a great and classic Oberheim sound. The OB-Xa changed that in an attempt to economize manufacturing and increase stability by switching to CEM3320 Curtis chips for its filters. The Xa offered two switchable filter modes: 12 dB/oct (2-pole) or 24 dB/oct (4-pole). When compared with the OB-X, people will often say that the OB-Xa is capable of nastier, grittier, more powerful, and immediate sounds.

Splitting the keyboard mode separates the OB-Xa into two 4-voice synths with two available patches. The Layer mode plays the two patches simultaneously. There are also some added effect sources, perfect for any analog polysynth, including portamento, unison, sample & hold, chord memory and three LFO's!"

4MS Stereo Triggered Sampler (STS) Tutorials


Published on Feb 23, 2018 once upon a synth

"Tutorial and overview of the 4MS STS Stereo Triggered Sampler eurorack module. This is a stereo sampler which can also behave like two independent mono samplers. You can sample in stereo or load files via an included micro SD card. It has volt per octave pitch control as well as CV control over start, length and sample. It's a great little sampler with just the right amount of features. In this first part I go over the basics and show you some patch examples. In a future video we'll go over the sampling and recording bits so stay tuned!"

Waldorf Blofeld demo / microtracks


Published on Feb 26, 2018 Panu Savolainen

"As an long time Waldorf user (since 90's) I thought to make demo of Waldorf Blofeld (keyboard). It's not one-shot patch demo. It's bunch of multitracked microtracks. So you probably find better demos for individual sounds. I wasn't going to do one-track demo but short tracks mixed so well together, so it came 24 minute ambient-type song.

Every short song are played straight to the audio. No MIDI, sequencing, arpeggiators or metronome used. Everything is coming from Blofeld. Not sure but sounds should be factory patches which I edited a bit and used realtime controllers like aftertouch and modwheel + knobs for filters, envelopes and effects. I used only patches which imo sounded good or was inspirational."
