Synth Stuff Ep. 63 - Dave Smith Instruments OB-6

Published on Dec 15, 2019 tritonrecordings

"Boy did I ruffle some feathers when I mentioned this synth on my Matrix 6 video... Let's clear the air - this is an excellent synth. Sounds good, flexible, built well, and it's Oberheim-ish. My problem with it is that it doesn't sound as close to an actual OB series Oberheim as the name and blue-lines paint job would suggest. It's more like a polyphonic SEM, maybe? If I give my Matrix 6 a little chorus, I can get it to sound pretty close to an old OB8. The OB6, however, still sounds like a Dave Smith synth but with some Oberheim flavor added. In short, it didn't live up to the name. BUT...it's still a great synth. I always say I like the Prophet 6 better, but always reconsider when I spend time with one of these."

Update: That would be because the OB-6's filter is based on the multi-mode SEM filter, while the OB-Xa and OB-8 are the CEM3320 VCF. See this post for a good sonic comparison between the OB-6 and OB-Xa. They are pretty close, but definitely different. The OB-6 isn't supposed to be an OB-Xa or OB-8. The OB-6 has a 2-pole SEM multimode filter, while the Xa & OB-8 have a switchable 4-pole and 2-Pole filter. It's the 4-pole that "mellows out" the Xa and OB-8. You have to turn the mix levels down on the OB-6 to approximate that.  Because the Xa and 8 lack the multimode SEM filters so they are not capable of of what the OB-6 and SEMs can do. The OB-6 is likely closest to the OB-X which was closer to the SEM for its voice boards. So... they are all different, but overlap in some ways. After checking out the comparison video, check out this video. It's worth noting later renditions of Oberheim synths become more and more mellow sounding compared to the SEM, OB-X, and even OB-Xa. The OB-8 is considered more polite and the Matrix-6 and 1000 were considered budget versions with the same general character but lacking the heft that made the early Oberheims classics. The Matrix-12 is said to be somewhat lacking in girth as well, but it makes up for it with its nearly modular modulation matrix and VCOs compared to DCOs in the 6/6R and 10000. I've owned the Xa, Matrix-6 (hence the matrix alias), the Martrix-12, the OB-6, and a TVS Pro. They all sound fantastic. The OB-6 sizzles compared to the others.

Sequential OB-6 | Inside (ambient demo)

video upload by MIDERA

MIDERA OB-6 posts

"I have honestly stared at this synth more than any other synth for the last three years, online that is. I watched videos upon videos and thought "it sounds good... but what is it that people *love* about it?" I wasn't going to spend $2000+ on a synth without testing it. No, I only do that with everything else (like the Prophet 10 and Prophet 12). Ok, so I do do that.

I managed to play one locally. Twice. The desktop version. I walked away from my first experience thinking "Wow, their Virus TI2 sounds amazing." I own the TI1, so obviously I didn't need that. But the point was, I didn't really think the OB-6 was that great.

Then, I managed to go back, this time with my own headphones. My opinion didn't change. However, this time they had an Oberheim OB-Xa, which sounded incredible, I could hardly believe my ears. I left, again, disappointed by the OB-6.

Fast-forward, I was going to do a trade, my JX-3P + cash for a friend's OB-6 keyboard. Well, they took the JX-3P but needed the OB-6 for a show, so I let them bring that later. In the process, they decided not to keep the JX-3P, but did let me borrow their OB-6, for a few hours, just to sit and play, which was awfully kind of them. What you hear is my time with it. Or rather, the first half of that time with it. I knew nothing about it, but I *DID* tune it prior to starting recording - and it managed to get out of tune by the end.

Tom Oberheim on GForce OB-E

"'I was pretty amazed by OB-E, it was pretty damn close right out of the shoot. It was “wow!'. I like listening to that." Tom Oberheim.

In 2021, during the release of OB-E®, we were contacted by Marcus Ryle on behalf of Tom Oberheim. Marcus is a co-founder of Line 6® but also a former Oberheim Developer who contributed to the OB-Xa, DSX, DMX, OB-8, Xpander and Matrix 12. Via Marcus, OB-E had found its way to the ears of Tom Oberheim and they were both impressed enough to suggest a collaboration to refine the instrument and release an update carrying their full endorsement.

Working under the guidance of Tom and Marcus, we further enhanced OB-E, Refining the Detune feature and adding a new Vintage knob, which dials in more realistic musical inaccuracies in line with the original instrument for a truly authentic 8-Voice experience.

The 8-Voice is not simply eight identical SEMs put together. The interaction of those 8 independent, and slightly different Synthesizer Expander Modules, plays a major role in making the 8-Voice’s sound special and the injection of these authentic inaccuracies into each of the eight SEMs in OB-E takes it to another level.

But don't listen to us - listen to two of our heroes, and bonafide industry legends, talk about their opinion of OB-E.

GForce Oberheim OB-E v2 on a Surface Pro 8

"Here are some thoughts and sounds on the OB-E v2 running on a Microsoft Surface Pro 8 where it has multi-touch support." Additional GForce OB-E posts

OBERHEIM OB-12 VIRTUAL ANALOG POLYPHONIC SYNTHESIZER

via eBay and Reverb.

The listing states: "This blue beauty is Oberheim's virtual-analog version of the classic sounds and tone of the original Oberheim synthesizers, with some additional modern features."

The OB-12 actually does NOT sound like a classic Oberheim. That said, it is a good sounding VA with it's own character. It excels at strings and pads as well as some harsh and abrasive sounds. Be careful with the resonance turned up high. It can be ear piercing in a way not found on other synths, except maybe the Akai AX-60. The OB-12 was a Viscount synth.

Modded Oberheim OB-12 w/ Custom White Knobs

via this auction

"Excellent condition OB-12 modded by the Blue Lantern guy.

From the original auction in August 2016:

"Up for sale is a customized oberheim OB-12 viscount synthesizer. The following modifications were done by myself:

-main output upgraded to hi-fidelity LM4562 dual hi spec op-amps.
-aux out upgraded to hi-fidelity LM4562 dual hi spec op-amps.

-Graphic LCD replaced by modern black and white color. Contrast Knob installed for manual contrast adjusting on the fly. The adjuster has a soft rubber knob, locatied near the screen.
-led replaced with colorful type. UV, BLUE, WHITE, ORANGE, YELLOW on most of the menu related and FX related sections.
-Knobs upgraded to hi spec cream color knobs with brass inserts.

I have the keyboard, and the USA power plug. The manual can still be downloaded online.

The synth looks great however, the analog output doesn't work. No headphone, no main, no aux. The digital output works fine. It should be a simple repair to get a new D/A converter in it, however, it has never bothered me. Making allowances for a repair in the price."

"These synths have to be one of the best looking synths ever, and they sound good also, with a lot of hands on control. I think the main complaint people had/have with the OB-12 was that it didn't sound like an original, analog Oberheim. I don't have experience with an original analog Oberheim but I think the OB-12 sounds great and is a lot of fun to play with. History seems to be treating this synthesizer kindly and the prices for them have been creeping up for years."

"Selected patches can be downloaded http://gstormelectronica.blogspot.com/

This is sound demo of the Oberheim Matrix-12 synthesizer. All but two sounds programmed by G-Storm Electro. Hopefully shows some of the ridiculously flexible sound architecture that is possible with this board. I'm playing some riffs both of my own original music and from some of the bands that have influenced me. The last bit, Intro to Gunslinger, while it is short it DID take a couple of weeks practice to get it right and is backed by a Machinedrum.

A summary of song riffs played:
G-Storm - Miranda (By The Sea)
Radiohead - All I Need
Depeche Mode - Enjoy The Silence
G-Storm - Cerulean Deraileur
Jimmy Van M ft. Terra Deva - bassline from Love Like Sleep
G-Storm - Spaced Out Beauty
New Order - Blue Monday
G-Storm - Aerial
808 State - breakdown from In Yer Face
Garbage - You Look So Fine
Sasha - Mr Tiddles
Go West - intro to Call Me
G-Storm - untitled track
G-Storm - Expectations (a really old unrecorded track of mine)
Spaced Out Beauty
M83 - You Appearing
Expectations
Immersion Domain - 1000 Images (I used the same Limuidz factory patch on the Xpander for that track)
Van Halen - I'll Wait (Eddie used an OB-Xa, I believe)
G-Storm - Descendant
Vangelis - Blade Runner (Opening Titles)
G-Storm - Gunslinger
G-Storm - intro to Gunslinger

Recorded via Alesis Multimix-8 and into Macbook w/ only occasional additional effects from the Multimix added for select sounds."

Vintage Oberheim OB-8 Synthesizer w/ Aftertouch Mod, Break Out Box & More

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

"This is a premiere example of a vintage Oberheim OB-8 synthesizer. It is cosmetically and functionally in great condition, and features a few custom mods that you will not find on any other vintage Oberheims for sale. It also comes with the original owner's manual, a super heavy-duty custom transport case, and a custom dust cover. I will list all of the details below:

Modifications (Please check out demo video I have attached to this listing):

This OB-8 has had some truly one-of-a-kind modifications done to it. They were done by the previous owner in between 2013-2016, but fortunately he gave me some of the original receipts for the work, which was done by two well established companies at the time -"Retro Linear" and "New England Analog". For all of the purists out there who cringe at the sight of any mods being done to a classic synth like this, this may not be the synth for you... but I personally found that these mods take the playing experience of this OB-8 to another level.

The first mod done was replacing the original keys with a Fatar keybed. This keybed plays extremely smoothly and effectively - it is quite easy to do runs up and down, and the keys are also not clicky and operate quietly.

On top of this, a very unique mod called "Pyxis Aftertouch" was installed which adds aftertouch to the fatar keybed! This aftertouch is routed to a very ingenious system that plugs into the back of the OB-8 via two small jacks. The system allows you to control various parameters of the aftertouch such as LFO speed & wave shape, filter cutoff, VCA settings like volume or tremolo, & more. This aftertouch system has a main module with knobs/switches for adjusting these parameters, and there is also a second touchpad module you can use to trigger these parameters. I showed examples of using this aftertouch mod in the demo video I included in this listing. You can see me using the aftertouch to trigger an increase in LFO speed/intensity at 0:21 and 0:55. At around 2:10 I demonstrate the aftertouch in combination with the portamento (which is an amazing feature of the OB-8). It can get a little wild sounding (2:12) if the portamento is a slow build ! At around 3:00, I use the touchpad module, which does the same thing as the keyboard aftertouch.

Oberheim OB-X8 Cover Clips

video uploads by Sean Christopher Synthesizers

Playlist:
Flash Gordon Soundtrack clips performed on the Oberheim OB-X8

I've always loved the movie Flash Gordon from good old 1980. Since Queen performed all the synth parts for that soundtrack on the Oberheim OB-X, I thought that it would be fitting to do my own version of some of the tracks with my new Oberheim OB-X8. I didn't try to recreate every piece spot on, but definitely wanted the Oberheim OB-X spirit in there. I hope that you enjoy my effort. :) Show less

Van Halen 1984 performed on the Oberheim OB X8

1984 was one of my favorite synth pieces from the 1980's, so I just had to recreate it on my new Oberheim OB-X8. I hope that you enjoy it.

Oberheim OB-X8 demo - "The Quasar's Sorrow" - also featuring the OTO BAM Reverb Processor

I originally wrote this track in 2012 for my TRANSCENDENCE album. Now 10 years later, the OB-X8 was the perfect synth the recreate it using only one synth. 100% of the track is using the OB-X8 (I used 12 patches multitracked using Cubase 12) and the only FX used was from my new BAM reverb processor by OTO Machines.

Radio Gaga instrumental cover featuring the Oberheim OB-X8

As a teen in 1984, Radio Gaga was my favorite song from the era......and still is to this day. It's pure music magic to my ears. I thought that I'd rearrange it using the Oberheim OB-X8 for all the synth/keyboard parts in the song.

Sequential OB-6 Sound Pack - All FM sounds

video upload by Polydata

"Sound pack of 50 patches with sequences for the excellent Dave Smith Instruments / Sequential OB-6 analog synthesizer. All of these patches use VCO 2 as an audio rate modulation source via the X-Mod section. I decided to make an all FM pack for the OB-6 after doing a set for the prophet-6. It was definitely more challenging at first, but it led me to approaching sounds in some new ways, which produced some amazing results.

Sounds load into slots 400-449 as default. Everything heard here is totally dry, with no effects, EQ or compression. Just playing straight off the synth's front panel.

Drop a comment of what other sound packs you're interested in (more prophet-6, OB-6, prophet-12, Arturia V Collection, or others).

Note these patches use the latest firmware with the "Vintage Knob" functionality.

Dave Smith Instruments OB-6 Desktop Unboxing Pics

Just a few unboxing pics of my brand new DSI OB-6 Desktop! :) I decided to sell my OB-Xa after getting it restored by Synthchaser. I needed the space, and I figured it was time for it to go to someone who would enjoy it fresh and new. That, and I wanted the extra features of the OB-6 with the reliability of a new synth. I am curious how the SEM based design will sound compared to my OB-Xa. The OB-1 and OB-X were based on the discrete analog design of the original SEM, while the OB-Xa moved towards a Curtis IC chip based design. From what I've heard online, I am sure the OB-6 will satisfy my needs for that overall Oberheim character, yet add its own distinct character as does each OB synth.   I just opened the box and took these pics, so I haven't had a chance to play it yet.  That said, I will say physically it feels like an Oberheim - the knobs, the look of it of course, the weight (this thing is solid), and surprisingly the wood side panels down to the type of screws used on it.  My OB-Xa, OB-SX and Matrix-12 all had the same exact type of screws.  I know it's a minor detail to most, but having been an owner of Oberheim's classic poly analogs it is a detail much appreciated.  I cannot wait to dig into this synth! I've been thinking about picking one up since it was released. I haven't been this giddy about a new synth in a long time. :)

While on a tour of Dave Smith Instruments in San Francisco, California I had the chance to try out the DSI Prophet 12, OB6 and Prophet 6 analog synthesizers in the DSI showroom. These Dave Smith Instruments synth demos features a variety of patches and sounds from the P12, OB 6 and P6. Note: audio is from camera microphone, not line-in."
