Well this has been fun.

And its taught me how undeniably better the OBX8 does big lush pad sounds.. worth £2.3k more - probably not! But gorgeous.

There are tonnes of differences between the 2 synths so I've not gone into everything but hopefully covered all the most important bases (and basses)

Oberheim OB-X8 vs OB6 // The Definitive Comparison

The Oberheim OB-X8... How gorgeous doe this thing sound? But is it worth double the price of the OB6? How does it differ socially and functionally. It turns out that functionally they'e completely different synths, but sonically you can tell they're from the same family. https://patreon.com/starskycarr Affiliate Links: Perfect Circuit https://link.perfectcircuit.com/t/v1/S0BERUlFSUBFR0ZEQ0NATEpITA?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.perfectcircuit.com%2Fcatalogsearch%2Fresult%2F%3Fq%3Dobx8 Thomann https://thmn.to/thoprod/543501?offid=1&affid=1461 Amazon https://www.amazon.co.uk/shop/starskycarr Reverb https://reverb.grsm.io/6mtwzga2a4ys Other places you’ll find me: ► Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/starskycarr ► Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/starskycarr ► Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/starskycarr ► Bandcamp https://starskycarr.bandcamp.com/releases ► Clubbing TV From the Studio: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLYIYEC4M53KQs4FeYpCY51sHxoK2l2Z0O 0:00 what's all this about? 2:10 the BIG difference 6:55 Oscillators 9:41 Filters 15:16 Modulation 19:15 Some Sounds 24:48 Final Thoughts 26:32 The Interfaces #oberheim #OBx86 #review #OB6

Thanks for clarifying!! Appreciate all the hard work you do 👍

I'll be honest - I'm not likely to have either the space or the finances for either of these. That said, it's a fascinating comparison so, should six numbers come up on a Saturday night... Overall I think I prefer the OB6 but there wouldn't be much in it. Anyway, thanks for all that you do - it's probably a lot of hard work for not much reward.
