Love.
Modulation of the filter type via your choice of sources is heaven...but just the start of this magic piece.
Hands down one of the most expressive synths I’ve ever laced hands on. It’s truly an instrument in the way many other fantastic offerings by other (including other DSI offerings) just haven’t pulled off. Thats what set this synth apart from the others for me. It’s just insanely expressive in such an effortless way- in addition to sounding beautiful.
This is one synth you really have to put hands on & play to really appreciate. No sound demos are gonna really tell the story. No review can explain what it is to play.
Oby!
What can I say? It is an Oberheim and gets the sounds I want. It is crazy thick combined with the Xpander.
The Best at Warm and Fizzy Filtered Sounds
While the OB-6 has a lot of range, there's one thing it's the best in the world at and that's warm poly sounds with a sizzling filter activated.
