I'm happy to be a part of the Oberheim users since a few weeks.
Damned, this instrument is so cool...

I've just finished my first set for the OB-X8, called 'Backlash'.

These are really nice patches. I’ve had a couple of hours trying an OB-X8 and it still hasn’t grabbed me but these patches make me think more time is needed. The Algo Bass and Vocal BPF Bass sound great, as FI lots of the keys sounds.

Thanks Quatschmacher !

I watched a lot of videos before taking the plunge.
I have to add that i also own a P10Rev4 since 2 years.

I was concern about a major thing and a detail before buying.

First, was there too much overlap between P10 and OBX8.
Actually there is a small amount of overlap for a bunch of sounds, if you use the 4 pole LPF of the OB-X8 with some slight rez settings but i found that for most things, they complete each other very well, which is finally a strong point.

The detail was about the envelopes speed, and i was happy to hear that they can be snappy when needed.
Needless to say that the build quality is very good on both.

I prefer putting the pots on 'Jump' mode, so you are sure to have the full range of parameter settings.
(Jump mode should be native for an OB !  ;D)

So maybe give it another try if you can.  8)

Hi !

Update day !  ;)
I've just added some new sounds to the previous Backlash soundset for the Oberheim OB-X8. This pack also contains a bunch of drums and basses samples recorded from the OB-X8.

Please note i will send this set to the customers that have already bought the original Backlash soundset !
