SOUND EXPERIMENTS – SESSION 4:
ARTURIA | OB-XA V
Today I'd like to show you the "OB-XA V" by Arturia, which is an emulation based on the corresponding hardware synth by Oberheim from 1980. Arturia added some additional features to their softsynth such as 16 voice polyphony, internal effects, a flexible modulation matrix and much more.
