Oberheim OB-X8 - FM Sound Bank

Pushing the classic Oberheim sound to new frontiers, the FM Sound Bank for the OB-X8 takes advantage of the expanded functionality of this synth to create complex and musical FM tones not previously possible in the OB series.

The key difference lies in the fact that you now have control over the FM index (amount). In the OB-X there was only an on/off button for X-Mod, which would engage FM at full blast. With exponential FM on an analog synth, this meant that the tuning of the voices wouldn't match, and there was no way to finely dial in the tuning of the oscillators. On the OB-X8 this fine tuning is possible, as well as precise control over the levels of the oscillators, for detailed timbrel blending.

A bank of 32 patches which all utilize the audio rate "X-Mod" functionality of the OB-X8. These patches place an emphasis on "digital" types of sounds, a new sonic frontier for an OB synth.

Patches load into the OB-SX Bank, groups 8-11. Requires firmware 2.0 or higher.
**THESE PATCHES WORK EXCLUSIVELY WITH THE OBERHEIM OB-X8 SYNTHESIZER. There are no refunds or exchanges after purchase.**
