Description of OB

OB-Xd is based on the Oberheim OB-X. It attempts to recreate its sound and behavior, but as the original was very limited in some important ways, a number of things were added or altered to the original design. OB-Xd was designed to sound as good and as rich as the original. It implements micro random detuning. Also, like many synths of the OB-X's generation, the OB-Xd has no internal effects so its sounds and textures can be greatly enhanced by the use of additional processing like chorus, reverb, delay, etc.

  • No upgrade bundle?

    I bought this just a month before version 3 came out, there is no upgrade path provided, this often takes the form of an upgrade bundle with both versions included where the price is discounted if you already own one of the versions. Would appreciate that very much and leaving this as a warning this is the old version.

    I actually bought their complete bundle with four titles originally. This was the only really interesting thing in it imo unless you’re into chiptune retro. I think this version does sound quite Oberheimish and the competitor is Korg Gadget Phoenix which also does the job. Would like to hear the new version please.

  • I can’t use it

    In Cubasis on my iPad 12.9 pro, when added to a track, there is no way of browsing the preset banks without turning off the keyboard, maximising the synth and then opening the banks/patches at the bottom of the screen.

    I have to repeat this for EVERY SINGLE TIME I want to change patch. It’s crazy!! Why isn’t the bank / patch browser listed per spec in the Cubasis list/browse menu on the left, and why is the patch/bank control centre fixed at the bottom of the screen behind the keyboard and doesn’t allow you to scroll to it - requiring you to maximise the synth instance EVERY time??

    When I do manage to get to a patch, I guess it sounds ok - but I’m so frustrated that I’ve only loaded perhaps 2 patches.

    PLEASE fix asap

  • Great Sound - Unplayable

    Dev did a good job with a faithful rendering of the original sounds but I’ve never seen a less playable iPhone keyboard. I have thin fingers and am pretty dexterous with these things but this one is just impossible.
