OP-X PRO-II: Oberheim VST

Post by Ivan Jochner »

Just discovered for myself an amazing Oberheim VST

http://www.sonicprojects.ch/opxpro2/freedemo.html

which can be tried in demo mode but its so valuable thing to play yourself and maybe to recreate some synth voices for Nord Stages since listening for patches its one thing playing them is another .
( On the top of that Muse Receptor can run VST avoiding carrying laptops etc).

Enjoy!

Moved here because it has nothing to do with the Nord General Forum.

I also like (and use) the Obxd. And... it's free! :-)

OP-X Pro II has a fat, always "chorusey" and slightly "pitch-detuning" sound that you cannot fix (you can fine-tuning it globally to taste anyway). That said, it's not the most accurate emulation for OB-X synths but indeed is in a category on its own. Nonethless it's a great sounding VST. Also, worth mentioning that is quite robust! Heavily tweaked its parameters in real time and not a single hiccup (both on OSX and Win). Had the chance also to exchange mails with the programmer: great boy indeed!

Fuz!

May I also point out that the web site has a goodly number of sound banks - many of which are recreations of classic synth sounds from popular recordings - and not just OBX-type sounds, they also have a good selection of Jupiter sounds and so forth.

I have used this VST for a number of years and find it to be really great. Works great with my DAW (Studio One), too.
