OB-Xd overview

OB-Xd is a classic synthesizer with a timeless sound that continues to captivate musicians and producers alike. With its rich, full-bodied tones and expansive sound design capabilities, the OB-Xd is the perfect choice for those looking to add a vintage touch to their music. Whether you're producing electronic tracks, recording live instruments, or composing for film and television, the OB-X is an invaluable tool that will bring a unique and expressive quality to your sound. So why wait? Add an OB-Xd to your studio today and take your music to the next level!

The OB-Xd is a synthesizer that has been designed to recreate the sound and behavior of the Oberheim OB-X. However, the original design of the OB-X was limited in some ways, so the OB-Xd includes a number of additional or altered features. One key feature of the OB-Xd is its implementation of micro random detuning, which helps to create a fuller, richer sound. Overall, the OB-Xd has been designed to produce a sound that is as good and as rich as the original OB-X.

What’s new in version 3.6.0

  • Expanded MIDI CC mappings, giving you more control than ever before. Previously unmapped parameters like Voice Multiply, Filter Envelope Shape, and Filter Falloff now have default CC assignments.
  • Resolved long-standing mapping overlaps and fine-tuned the LFO MIDI output listener, ensuring accurate control over modulation settings.
  • Fine adjustment controls are now optimized for every platform, using Ctrl on Linux and Alt elsewhere to avoid conflicts.
  • Fixed Korg MS2000 MIDI XML mappings, improving integration and usability.
  • Updated the PDF manual with detailed descriptions of all MIDI CC mappings.

    Digging through the confusion: IT'S FREE for personal, non-commecial use. You can download the Mac version from the website and install it. It works. It installs all FOUR versions: AudioUnits, VST, VST3 and Standalone app. It's open source. It's fully 64-bit. You'll need a MIDI keyboard to use the standalone app. - - So what's $49? An optional, good faith commercial use license/EULA good for two computers. Otherwise it's fully functional "Demo" app. There is no copy protection - - Be sure to check out the website in depth. There are a pile for further synths, a sampler, effects and soundware. It's got support, manuals, FAQs, a user forum, video tutorials, the lot! Bravo!
