Product Detail
OB-Xd is a captivating classic synthesizer that offers rich, full - bodied tones for a unique sound design experience. Ideal for adding a vintage touch to electronic tracks, live recordings, or film scores, it recreates the Oberheim OB - X with enhancements. It features micro random detuning and unison for a fuller sound, and while not copying the original, it takes some features to a better level. The continuous blendable multimode filter provides great flexibility. As it has no internal effects, you can enhance its sounds with additional processing like chorus, reverb, and delay. It also supports MTS - ESP for micro - tuning. Now with MIDI Out for bi - directional communication, you can mirror MIDI CC from XML templates or create custom setups. The new Unison Voices feature allows you to add 1 to 16 voice layers to each note for a richer sound. The update brings new Pulse Width Modulation Controls, advanced filter capabilities, a refined attack envelope shape, oversampling selection, MIDI and preset bar enhancements, and LFO synchronization.
Using the DiscoDSP OB - Xd is a breeze. First, start by setting up your MIDI controller if you have one. You can use the MIDI Out feature for bi - directional communication, which lets you mirror MIDI CC from XML templates or create your own custom setups. For a fuller sound, try the Unison Voices feature. Select the number of voices from 1 to 16, and set the spread control at half or higher for the best effect. When shaping your sound, use the new Pulse Width Modulation Controls to add intricate details. Adjust the advanced filter capabilities to get the right sound filtering. Remember, since there are no internal effects, you'll need to use external processors like chorus, reverb, and delay to enhance the sound. As for micro - tuning, use the MTS - ESP support for more granular control. When it comes to maintenance, keep your software up - to - date to enjoy all the latest features and bug fixes. And always back up your presets in case something goes wrong.
