03.OBXTRA

Three Oberheim voice boards, modelled from the service manuals.

OBXTRA models the voice boards of the Oberheim OB-X, OB-Xa and OB-8, each one from its own service manual. They run on top of the open-source OB-Xf engine and its preset library.

Switch boards and the character changes the way it did on the real machines: the loud one, the smoother one and the well-mannered one.

“Three brothers. Same family. Very different tempers.”

  • _ Oberheim OB-X · OB-Xa · OB-8, 1979
