Combines Three Iconic Synth Architectures The OB-X8 combines the voice architectures of the OB-X, OB-Xa and OB-8 into a single, powerful instrument. Each model's filter types, envelope contours and other unique qualities have been faithfully recreated, giving you the full range of OB sounds in one synthesizer. You can even mix elements from different models to create sounds not possible with the originals. Premium Keyboard and Expressive Performance Controls For expressive performances reminiscent of the original OB synths, the OB-X8 features a premium Fatar keyboard with velocity and aftertouch sensitivity. Performance controls like the pitch bend and modulation levers let you create filter sweeps, vibrato and more in real time. An arpeggiator can generate rhythmic chord patterns to accompany your playing. Bi-timbral Capability for Complex Sounds The OB-X8 is bi-timbral, allowing you to layer or split two different synth sounds across the keyboard. You can adjust the panning and volume of each sound independently for a huge range of textures. With so many parameters to tweak, the OB-X8 gives you the tools to create truly unique and complex analog sounds.
