Hi Adam, love your sounds. Question. Could you tell me what OB’s Prince used on “ Sex shooter, Gspot, and nasty girl( vanity 6) pretty shure it’s the OBX-a, or maybe the 8, cuz they from 82/83. trying to make these sounds! Any tips??? Hope you will answer me. Happy holidays.🙏☔️☔️☔️☔️☔️🇺🇸
Yes! I've owned an OBX, OBXa and Xpander (and a bunch of Matrix-1000). I've also worked extensively with a vintage Two-Voice, and the X8 is right up there with them. Although it's more limited than the Matrix/Xpander series (which are really modulars IMHO!), with all the OB8 and SEM stuff implemented, the extra LFO and no extensive menu diving like the Matrix series, this may be my favorite Oberheim yet. I wouldn't complain if they made a new Xpander/M12 but this is the heart and soul of the Oberheim sound. ♥
@@kamelhamlaoui9983 all filter versions are bad ass dope on obx8! Depends on the situation - sometimes u need more resonance, some times you need calm down filtering
it sounds really good - I have all the vst ones and this is how I wish they would sound , superb , love those highs , when behringer release theres i dont think it will sound as good as this - their arp2600 doesnt sound right to me , whereas the korg one sounds nice.
I have owned many analog synths before, but the sound of OB-X8 exceeds all of them. Maybe this is my taste, but stereo separation & the power of modulation envelopes + flexibility is unmatched.
Maybe this is the question of personal preferences and taste. Have played a lot of analog poly and monosynths. I feel this one is the final stop for me, at least for now.
My favorite synthesizer 😊 Stereo voicing is absolutely gorgeous!
Indeed!

Agree!
Hi what do you think about the OBX filter on the OBX 8 , compare to the OG??! Love the OBX 8, but my dream synth… a FVS or TVS, 70’s💕💕💕☔️☔️☔️☔️☔️😎
Same question what do you think about the SEM’ s filters on the OBX8? 😎

@@Socialhackpodcast thanks 4 ur answer!!😎💕🙏☔️ Prince forever.
Top tier definitely. Future king.
Kings are J8, CS-80, Minimoog, Prophet-5, Fairlight, ARP and DX7.
Oberheim poly is surely a contender for the crown. Sounds like an absolute dream.
Definitelly!
Man o man what an epic synth. Great video.
Absolutely!!!
One of the greatest synths (like its predecessors!) of all time
Agree
Wow fire 🔥

yes i agree - it looks superb also - really good look to it - well it looks same as orig which is perfect@@Socialhackpodcast
Yes. Yes indeed.
Super dope!
I think cs-80 has that title, lol
But still very cool
Possibly too! 😅
Gorgeous!
Pro one
Pro One is a good synth too, but this one sounds ultimate with it’s 8 voice polyphony and gardcore stereo separation between notes
Hey, guys, thanx for replies. Looking forward hearing from you
Dunno about the synth, but the coaster is amazing! 😋
Identical to the originals. And with a better keybed.
I recently read someone saying that because there is so much software in it, it's basically a VST in a box! Thoughts.........
You can‘t run a programable poly synth without software!
Roland Jupiter 8... the Ferrari of synths! 😎
Impressive synth, agree
Great synth but definitely not the”king” lol
Yeah that belongs to the Jupiter 8
@@ConcernedRat definitely an amazing synth! Hopefully one day they will bring it back full spec! It’s fun to dream
@@ConcernedRatno
this is NOT the King.....just sayin
Who is?
Would be great to hear your alternatives!! Thanx for message

sorry my Oberheim Xpander blows this thing away@@martynas-rusteika
