I had a dream I was supposed to get the OB-6. This demo really supports my intuitive feeling that I will get along with this synth. These patches are really cool!!!
I AM TRIMINI oh man! I had one, then traded it it, lol! I nw have a REV 2, but they just dropped the new prophet... The OB-6 is an amazing synth though. I miss it.
@@hayeye Wow! I finally figured out how to program that patch at 10:13 through 12:58. I’m good at programming the OB6, but that one was tricky! Great patch!!👍
Bloody hell that was incredible!!! Bravo signore! Really beautiful sounds and sequencing. Especially the very opening sounds and the almost modular sounds from 11 mins onwards. Excellent...Now where did I put my $3500... :(
Wow! I am currently on the fence between the OB6 vs the Prophet range. For a moment it seemed the OB6 is more of a "one-trick pony" (albeit an enormously good trick) than the Prophets, in that is mostly seems to lend itself to Oberheim-eske lush pads, strings and brasses. You've demonstrated that it's capable of much more experimental stuff than what most standard demos showcase and that's really important to me. Thanks man. Still in doubt though, as I'd really like to make it my main synth so it should be quite versatile.
I'd like to add on to the idea that it is a one trick pony for i just got one last month! It does feel that way but it is just SO powerful at what it does it really makes the decision between it and p6 just that more difficult! If I could do it again I would choose the ob6 everytime though!😎
very nice patches, good work. problem is ...it doeasnt sound like an obx or oba.....glad i kept one. i will wait for the behringer copy....I like sequential pro 3 though.
I chose the OB6. for a prophet type sound you can get a Rev 2 for much less. I had the Proph 6 for a short time but the OB6 is soooo fat and rich. I sent the proph 6 back.
I've downloaded the file but I couldn't figure out how to upload them to the OB6, the manual also hasnt got that information. I have the soundtower editor but this doesn't uploads midi files. How do I load the banks into the keyboard?
Default Corporation cool man. I had a few of the later models. I believe a 3000 model and the 6000XL. Also had en E64 emulator but nowadays it's all software. much easier to edit 😃
@default corporation, I'm really curious about the patch that starts at 10:18. Can you describe some of what's going on there. random lfo the the x-mod to quite a number of parameters? if you can be specific, I'd really appreciate it.
hi, Sorry I had this OB6 just for fiew days and i really don't remember how i've done the patches. I don't whant to say wrong about it but you can download most of this presets i've done on file section in synth cafè group in Facebook. If you upload it, you can then visualize (by the dot in the display) the correct position of the knobs.
I have a Prophet 6 and I really would like to know if getting an OB6 is worth it. How different are they in terms of features/modulations/capabilities? Not so much in terms of sound but is it essentially the same synth but just SEM based?
you have two different timbres but similar features in this 2 synths. P6 is aggressive than OB6. OB6 is not suitable for percussive sounds for instsance but is fantastic for pads and strange things too if you want.
thanks Daniel. Sorry but i really don't remember the perfect patching i've done (I had it in a loan just for fiew days..sig) but for shure there is the X-Mod.
Is it just me, or should the LEDs on this synth be green/blue? You know, to match the old look of the Xpander/Matrix-12, and compliment the blue lines on the panels?
The last two minutes of the video, that was epic 😍 *signing up for this* Is there a chance to play Insomnia by Faithless, the main "pizzicato" synth on this?
@@hayeye thanks for the response. I know other hardware that can do it but this instrument sound so good I just hoped it could...you can't have it all 😉
I was looking for the patches on Synth Cafe Group on Facebook, but I was unable to find them. On account of the facebook page not loading after a certain point. I'm finding trying to load passed a few days aren't loading. so if you are able to link it, that would be great. As I will not be obtaining my synth for a little while yet.
not John. Was not a post!!!! there is a special section (FILES) were are the patches. Just under the group banner (discussion/members/events/video/photo/file).
I have this synth and I like it better that the Proph 6. Just more bandwith? If that makes sense. I couple this with the Prophet Rev2 and I get all the DSI I need.
JD-XA sounds much better than this and costs way less (and does way more). Not a knock on the video but by god DSI can NOT make a musical sounding synth to save their lives. How can you guys not hear how unmusical/harsh their synths are? Well whatever floats your boat but the JD-XA can get close to much of the OB6 (and even P6) sounds and then surpass them too, yes even as just a DCO synth with 4 voices. And sounds way nicer doing it, 2-3 LFOs on the XA also, what year is this again? Bloody rip off DSI.
I got an idea quarky. DON'T BUY ONE. AND, never go to club where a band is using one, AND never listen to a recording where a DSI instrument is used, AND never involve yourself in a conversation where DSI is brought up - like this one. AND don't shellfish or drive after 8 o'clock at night with the passenger window cracked. AND, now that you have stopped taking your medication, call your probation officer. AND call your mom. I am sure she will really love to hear from you.
I had a dream I was supposed to get the OB-6. This demo really supports my intuitive feeling that I will get along with this synth. These patches are really cool!!!
thank's!
Nice programming! It's such a great sounding synth. I WILL, one day, own an OB-6!
thanks Shane! I will too (this one was just on loan for a fiew days...) ;)
Default Corporation One day we all will! 🤩👍🙌
Have yall gotten one yet!?
I AM TRIMINI oh man! I had one, then traded it it, lol! I nw have a REV 2, but they just dropped the new prophet...
The OB-6 is an amazing synth though. I miss it.
The OB 6 sounds beautiful. Love it.
10:13 - 12:58 is so great.
thanks
@@hayeye trying to understand the fundamental makeup of that patch. S&H assigned to a myriad of things?
@@station2station544 i don't remember. To much time ago and the OB6 was not mine. But the mod matrix of OB6 is quite simple.
really so great
@@hayeye Wow! I finally figured out how to program that patch at 10:13 through 12:58. I’m good at programming the OB6, but that one was tricky! Great patch!!👍
13:00 o'clock. Love it when the reverb is engaged. Awesome demo. Will have mine soon
thanks and have fun with your!!!
I really like a lot of these patches. The OB-6 is great. Even though it's a synth, it has an amazingly natural sound.
Dave Smith knows how the synths must be built. :)
OB-6 Fantastic! Thanks for posting!
How can this sound so good, youtube compression or not what an incredible synth, dsi doesnt fuck around!
this is excellent. I just purchased the module version of this amazing instrument- I have a lot of work to do to create sounds like this. Beautiful!
Hi Max, OB6 and P6 are easy synths ...you work will not be hard.
Great demo!
I love the sound from 7:33
classic 80s movie music I LOVE IT!
wow!
great sounding synth!! great patches, good job :)my favorite demo of this synth by far.
thank you Ivanka. I love Sequential /DSI synths.
Amazing sounds! Thanks for sharing!
Very good demo of the OB. Thanks!
thanks
I will one day too own this synth. Soo Awesome :)
me too :)
Bloody hell that was incredible!!! Bravo signore! Really beautiful sounds and sequencing. Especially the very opening sounds and the almost modular sounds from 11 mins onwards. Excellent...Now where did I put my $3500... :(
Thanks Sunil :)
Great demo...!
I really have to quit watching these vids because all I hear, I need, I want... If only I were a millionaire.... :-O
;)
@@hayeye i got rid of my ok synths and 3 synths turned into one good one that blows them all away. You just need to clean house and downsize
@@richardwalley2862for me you do the right thing. I should do the same but its hard to do.
Proper!
Thank you.

Yes, OB6 (and P6 too..) can do more than we expect from it features. They can't do all but they are easy and fun machines for me.
I'd like to add on to the idea that it is a one trick pony for i just got one last month! It does feel that way but it is just SO powerful at what it does it really makes the decision between it and p6 just that more difficult! If I could do it again I would choose the ob6 everytime though!😎
Amazing Patches ! Thank you for sharing !
thanks :)
Excellent...thanks!..
interesting. Thank you so much!
Bravo!
very nice patches, good work. problem is ...it doeasnt sound like an obx or oba.....glad i kept one. i will wait for the behringer copy....I like sequential pro 3 though.
It CAN sound like the OBX.
thanks for sharing
great taste!
wow.. @ 8:00.. Best demo yet :)
:) thank's
can you tell me what's going on there? my ob6 is on the way and that sounds lovely...
You really show off the versatility of this amazing synth. And some say you only can do "Jump-sounds" on it;-)
ahaha! ...but with just four octaves, Jump can't be played!!!! ;)
jj nobody says that.
Many thanks for this demo, brilliant programming!
you are welcome, David.
Bellissime patch Rick
Subscribed.
thanks
NICE WORK!!!
thanks
Nice!
i love the part with the delay
Makes me miss my OBXa :(
amazing. Guys i need help what would be better for house music. the OB6 or prophet 6
I don't know well how house music do sounds but OB6 have not a auto oscillation on filter. I think P6 can be better.
I chose the OB6. for a prophet type sound you can get a Rev 2 for much less. I had the Proph 6 for a short time but the OB6 is soooo fat and rich. I sent the proph 6 back.
I saw your dog at 8:23
3:00 - good lord.
I've downloaded the file but I couldn't figure out how to upload them to the OB6, the manual also hasnt got that information. I have the soundtower editor but this doesn't uploads midi files. How do I load the banks into the keyboard?
sorry, you can upload the pathces on the synth using Snoyze sysex librarian. I don't know if on Soundtower you can import sysex files.
OMG is that an S1100 AKAI? :-D Vintage man! :-) Where are the days they asked about the equivalent of 1000 bucks for 8MB of sample memory :-O
I bought it when nobody want more one but my best are still the EMU IV series.
Default Corporation cool man. I had a few of the later models. I believe a 3000 model and the 6000XL. Also had en E64 emulator but nowadays it's all software. much easier to edit 😃

sad true :)
Lawrence O who cares?? This is about the ob6.

Hi, the sysex is in “synth cafè” group in the “file” section on Facebook 😉
I have a Prophet 6 and I really would like to know if getting an OB6 is worth it. How different are they in terms of features/modulations/capabilities? Not so much in terms of sound but is it essentially the same synth but just SEM based?
i think P6 and OB6 sound different. Filters are not the same. Only oscillators seems to be the same.
Oh I know the Filter sounds different but other than that?
you have two different timbres but similar features in this 2 synths. P6 is aggressive than OB6. OB6 is not suitable for percussive sounds for instsance but is fantastic for pads and strange things too if you want.
great demo! is the patch at 3:50 using the OSC 2 as an FM source via the x-mod section?
thanks Daniel. Sorry but i really don't remember the perfect patching i've done (I had it in a loan just for fiew days..sig) but for shure there is the X-Mod.
nice
Is it just me, or should the LEDs on this synth be green/blue? You know, to match the old look of the Xpander/Matrix-12, and compliment the blue lines on the panels?
this synth is it not an old Oberheim. It looks and sounds as a 2K years synth must be for my opinion :)
That would look ultimately cool...
what do you think about it ? can you get the vco's to sound very clean without any overdrive like on the Prophet6 ?
a nice synth for me. My favourite is still the Prophet 6 (more agressive for me) but OB6 is also so fun to play and to discover new sounds.
Absolutely gorgeous! But would it have killed them to make it 5 octaves???
i don't kow why only 4 octaves...i'm sad about this too.
The last two minutes of the video, that was epic 😍

hi, You can download the patches in file section in "Synth Cafè" Facebook group. The patch you say however is "played" live.
Al solito, utilizzi non banali delle "macchine" danno risultati non banali. Bello! at (7:31)
Marco Gozzi grazie amico mio!!! Anche io mi sono positivamente stupito di questo synth
I was looking for the patches on Synth Cafe Group on Facebook, but I was unable to find them. On account of the facebook page not loading after a certain point.

I don't kow your problem. I just tried download now and works fine. Shure is the right link you try?

Unless you have the date of the post, I will find this difficult as I have too many tabs open on my internet browser so facebook keeps crashing.

here a video to "how to do it":
ua-cam.com/video/IoIb28_U_8I/v-deo.html
oops! now I feel...
You're awesome Felice Manzo!!!
What kind of stand is the tempest on? Thanx
a simple portable lectern stand....
Is it multi tumbrel?
no :(
Still an awesome synth. I really want to get it, but I think the Prophet-6 would better benefit my setup.
Prophet 6 number one!!! :)
It sure sounds grand. Going to pare it with JoMoX Alpha Base.
I have this synth and I like it better that the Proph 6. Just more bandwith? If that makes sense. I couple this with the Prophet Rev2 and I get all the DSI I need.
What is the file name in synth cafe?
hi, you got the link in synth cafè thread :)
So how you gettin around minus an octave?
Chris Strobel octave buttons
Who is Tom Oberheim?!?
The guy who designed all the Oberheim synthesizers.
oh ok.
Ghostbusters3 are you serious??

Bloody rip off DSI.
how the sound is good or bad, is a matter of personal taste.
Don't buy one then.
