What most of your viewers would really like to hear, is a direct comparison to your OB-X8 keyboard! Perhaps try taking some of your favorite presets on the OB-X8 and program them into the OB-X VST, and vice versa. I do hear some people say even the OB-X8 doesn't sound like their OB-X, but it sounds good to me. We're all curious how close this VST sounds to the real thing, and if we should consider the OB-X8 or if this VST will be equally as impressive when using "famous" OB-X sounds, besides the obvious that some people just prefer using hardware.

That is the only case where software really does make sense because you can edit all 8 SEMs together and I‘ll never get the vintage 8-voice hardware for sure.

@@MilesAwayOfficial Hi, good idea about Serum, I've heard good things about it. I finally bought OB-X (10 times less expensive than an hardware 2 osc synth) and I started a nice song just using the first presets (I've plenty to discover) so it is an indication it sounds great. The sound is wide and deep, and it reacts like analog (pitch/portamento and filters react slightly differently on each key press). And a complex preset only uses 2 percent of my CPUs, I've more than 90 percent idle with 4 instances on Logic Pro (12 CPU M2 Pro).

just picked this up. Im not a VST guy - but as Im out of space for hardware.... I have a Prophet 6 and OB 6 (and a 3rd wave), and have often though about replacing them with the OB8x and P10... BUT I bake FX into patches and thats always put me off. I have a Fractal Axe-FX I use for outboard FX, but I cant synth ta to the P10/OBx8 to sync saved patches. So - this weekend I picked up a few things (used i Cantiable) to bring VSTs out to the Fractal, and Bring my hardware into VST FX. I picked up D16s Spacerec (physical space reverb) and Repeater (digital delay) , Liquid Sonics 7th Heaven reverb ( i haev a few free ones - Blue cats phaser, flanger, chorus - valhalla supermassive obviously) then for VSTs, Diva (getting older but a playground of subtractive synthesis), the Grandeur for Pianos (to supplement my RD2000s V-Piano sounds) and This....... I had intended on OBxD 3.0 (as I have - or rather had 2.0) but thats not a pay for not free, and this was practically the same price. First impressions - comparing my my OB6 particularly - its great..... and has similar differences that the OBx8 had when I spend a day comparing those two... Sure Its only got the single LP filter - not the 24 , or notch (which I love on the OB6) BUT..... It might have saved me swapping my OB6 for the OBx8 and faffing with off board FX. I also picked Equator 2 to expand the sonic possibilities of my Osmose.. but thats another story ;)

I don’t want to debate lord this, seriously. I promise. But, if it were the case that all of these virtual analogs can sound the same, you are implying that every scientist and beta tester is operating on fraud or delusion. Further, what you are really saying is that thousands of people are all wrong and you are correct. Often times, the probability of that much coincidental error is next to nil. The odds of a single individual being wrong, especially when thousands think differently, is an almost total certainty. But, I love being right when the odds are down, so I’m going to agree with you. They are indeed all equally capable of emulating any sound and sonically uninteresting.

@@andymakii7344 I wasn’t trying to bad mouth the software, just saying that all these “analog emulation” vsts sound pretty much the same to me, there’s nothing about one or the other that sounds “miles better”. If you don’t read the “fancy specs” in the VST’s description and you just listen to its sounds, you’ll probably not be as impressed. But if you read what the developers say then it’s easy to fall victim of the “power of suggestion” which is where someone tells you how superior something sounds, and you believe it and start hearing it too, just because someone said it (not because it actually sounds good) And with social media nowadays - one KZitemr says “wow this VST sounds so good so analog so realistic” and boom all their followers mindlessly believe it and start preaching the same thing on forums and stuff and then the people that read those forums start preaching the same aswell and there you go, now everybody is saying the same thing - because one KZitemr started it :D Again, I’m not bashing the software, just saying how there’s nothing amazing about it. Saying things like “wow this sounds so analog” - like, it doesn’t sound anymore analog than any other virtual-analog VST, they’re pretty much all the same and sound the same. There might be about a 5% difference between them
