The Oberheim OB-X Analog Synthesizer (1979)
For me one of the best synthesizers ever made. I use the OB-X many years and I had never technical problems. The sound is very different to the later curtis chip based OB--Xa. But I like both.
My OB-X is a eight voice. Enjoy some sounds."

The smooth side of the OB-X.
Yes I love the OB-X synth for the growly and wild sound. Powerful and raw.
But the synth have also a very soft soul. When you like. ;)

cover song. Original made by Kurt Hauenstein

The sound character of the curtis chip based OB-Xa is very different to the early discrete and SEM based OB-X from the year 1979.
The OB-Xa use the same Curtis (CEM) chips as the Sequential Prophet-5 but the sound is different.
The OB-Xa was available with 4, 6 or 8 voice cards.

Typical 80s synth track. I used the TR-808 trigger out for trigger the Juno-60 internal arpeggiator and play the keys by hand.

The Juno-60 ist my favorite analog synthesizer together with the Oberheim OB-X and the Sequential Pro-One. My desert island combo. ;)

UVI Ob Legacy - The legendary Oberheim sound for your studio - OB-Xa, OB-X, Matrix

Published on Sep 18, 2017 RetroSound

"(c) 2017 vintage synthesizer demo by RetroSound

In june 2017 I drove over 1200 kilometers with my Oberheim OB-X , the OB-Xa and the Matrix-1000 to Paris in the UVI headquarter for sampling works for the new OB Legacy software. You can find a lot legendary Oberheim sounds in OB Legacy and a lot more.

UVI Ob Legacy
One of the most prolific figures in synthesizer history is the maverick engineer and designer Tom Oberheim. His efforts can be heard across hundreds of albums, decades of pioneering instrument designs, and experienced through conveniences we take for granted on a daily basis including preset memory and MIDI. His influence is as great as any and his designs have stood the test of time better than most, with models in production today that have changed little in over 40 years. The sound of his instruments is distinct and inherently musical, with a character that's often described as "lush" and "massive", and rightly so.

UVI Ob Legacy is the legendary and authentic Oberheim Sound for your studio.
