Product information "Sequential OB-6 Module"

The Sequential OB-6 Module brings the distinctive sound of the OB-6 six-voice analogue synthesizer into a compact desktop format. Developed in collaboration between Dave Smith and Tom Oberheim, it combines the classic Oberheim-inspired analogue signal path with modern sound-design and performance features.

Each voice features two discrete voltage-controlled oscillators (VCOs) and a sub-oscillator, paired with a resonant two-pole state-variable filter offering low-pass, high-pass, band-pass and notch modes. The X-Mod section expands the modulation possibilities, while the dual effects engine provides studio-quality reverbs, delays, chorus, flanging, phase shifting and ring modulation.

The desktop module retains the hands-on control layout of the keyboard version, with dedicated knobs and switches for direct access to sound parameters. Additional features include a polyphonic step sequencer with up to 64 steps, an arpeggiator, 1,000 program locations and a Poly Chain function that allows two OB-6 units to be combined for up to 12-voice polyphony.
