Just a quick video of me messing about on my Oberheim OB-8. Please excuse the rubbish playing (and noisy keys) but hopefully this will give you an idea of the sounds you can coax out of this beast.

  • theres OB8 all over zx84-englands hall of fame,looks like a great studio

  • hahahaha

  • the arpeggiator

  • Google search for "Kurts Amps & Keyboards"

  • hi! i have an OB8 but is broken! do you know who can fix it?

  • It's an arpeggiator function.

    A feature in many early analogue synths (and some current synths) where if you play a across an octave or a chord, or any bunch of notes really,  it plays each note one at a time either in sequence or randomly.

  • "How do you get those notes to be like that? like play fast?"

    Arpeggiator

  • Great Playing

    What is that Button you pushed at the beginning? How do you get those notes to be like that? like play fast? i know i sound stupid

  • Envelopes are not as fast as the P5. Almost as fast as OB-Xa which still is mushier than the P5 which in turn is slower than the JP-8.

    OB-8 is still a beautiful instrument.

  • So different. The Harley Davidson of Synths. Raw, basic, unreliable and limited in its application. But detune 'em a bit, stay in the low mid frequencies, and it's like heaven. Punches thru any mix, no matter how many dums and guitars you got. A Beast!
