Oberheim – OB-X

The Oberheim OB-X by GForce is the world’s first officially endorsed emulation of this famous 80s synth. Revered by artists like Japan, Ultravox, Chick Corea, Herbie Hancock, Depeche Mode, Queen, and many more, the OB-X is cherished for its classic sound. GForce’s OB-X preserves this iconic sound while offering new sonic possibilities, making it perfect for modern genres like Electronica, EDM, Drum and Bass, Ambient, Rock, Prog Rock, and Hip Hop.

An authentic OB-X with vast sound design possibilities
Oberheim OB-X provides an authentic experience enhanced with powerful features designed for the modern setup. It includes up to 16 voice polyphony, a vintage control for adding subtle analogue imperfections, four programmable Macros, new intro, retrigger, phase, and smoothing features for the LFO, new level destination for the LFO, separate PWM1 and 2, discrete levels, discrete tracking, an arpeggiator, a chord mode with scaler, Chorus, Stereo Delay, and Reverb effects, and more. Additionally, GForce’s OB-X is augmented with X-Modifiers, dedicated LFOs, and ADSRs for almost all parameters, taking OB-X to the next level of sound design.

Create hugely complex, yet musical, sounds with X-Modifier technology
Using our unique X-Modifier technology, the scope of sound modulation possibilities is immense. The intuitive X-LFO and X-ADSR section enables you to work faster without setting up modulation paths; they’re already set up for you. X-Mods provide you with the ability to create extensive modulations of almost every parameter, allowing you to create hugely complex, yet musical, sounds. While the tone and character at the heart of the synth remain authentic to the original, the additional features turn it into a true sonic canvas.
