GForce公司开发的软件乐器OB-E,它是对传奇的Oberheim 8-Voice的重新诠释,也是第一个得到Tom Oberheim亲自认可的软件乐器。OB-E并非简单的仿真,而是提供了独特的音乐体验。它通过一系列增强和添加,将标志性的Synthesizer Expander Module (SEM) 8-Voice带入全新的声音领域,声音巨大而充满活力。

8-Voice的概念实际上非常简单:基于一个包含两个VCO(脉冲和锯齿波形)、两个ADSR包络发生器、一个LFO和一个神奇的多模式滤波器的单个SEM。每个SEM独立运行时是单声道的,但在8-Voice中,因为有八个由多声道键盘触发的SEM,您就拥有了一个出色的八音符多声道合成器。

这种独特的八声道结构在数字领域首次为音乐制作人、作曲家和音频设计师提供了全新且令人兴奋的创作可能性。

OB-E致力于成为一个经过增强但仍保持原汁原味的乐器。我们费尽心思地仿真了合成器的每个部分,以确保音频的真实性,同时增加了对这八个SEM的软件控制。它支持单声道、单声道连奏、多声道、合奏和分割键盘模式。此外,新的VCO3可以作为每个SEM的音频率LFO,并通过速度、多声道触摸和MPE控制等一系列额外的性能控制,为您带来更多音乐可能性。

在接近OB-E发布之际,Tom Oberheim和上世纪80年代的Oberheim工程师Marcus Ryle联系了我们,他们对OB-E印象深刻,建议合作支持细化OB-E,并发布得到他们全面认可的v2更新。尽管已获得多项2021年最佳软件合成器奖,但在Tom和Marcus的指导下,我们进一步增强了已经令人难以置信的OB-E声音。优化了Detune功能,并添加了新的Vintage控制,以调整更符合原始乐器的真实音乐不准确性,实现了真正逼真的8-Voice体验。

OB-E v2的新特性(现支持macOS和Windows)包括增强的Vintage控制和高度精致的Detune参数。此外,它现在支持新的混响、100多个新预设(总数超过700个)、序列器的新缩放功能以及新的Drum Mode,使每个SEM都能通过专用按键触发。我们还添加了10个鼓套件预设,可供您使用。如果您正在寻找新的模拟鼓机,不妨试试,可能会让您惊喜。

还有更多功能。以原始MS-1序列器为起始参考点,我们集成了一个非常全面和创造性的8步序列器,提供了原始硬件无法提供的灵活性和趣味性。在键盘分割模式下,将序列器路由到SEM 8,OB-E可以在单个预设内创建完整的三声部音景。全新的可路由立体延迟和丰富的混响提供了音频上的互补效果。

8-Voice不仅仅是八个相同的SEM组合在一起。这8个独立且略有不同的合成器扩展模块之间的互动,在使8-Voice声音如此美妙方面起着重要作用。将这些真实的不准确性注入到OB-E的每个SEM中,将其提升到另一个层次,模糊了硬件之间的界限,使OB-E成为Oberheim SEM声音和8-Voice乐器最真实的仿真。

最后,我们还为我们的乐器配备了由Dave Spiers和一批杰出的音频设计师设计的700多个工厂预设。更棒的是,每个预设都经过标记、分类,并可以从OB-E的库中快速访问(支持箭头导航)。

An Oberheim Octaphonic Adventure

The Oberheim OB-E is our take on the legendary Oberheim 8-Voice and the first software instrument ever to receive Tom Oberheim’s personal endorsement. More than just an emulation, the OB-E offers a unique musical experience. Sounding huge, it takes the iconic Synthesizer Expander Module (SEM) based 8-Voice (a.k.a the EVS) into new sonic territory via a raft of enhancements and additions.

The concept of the 8-Voice is actually very simple; based around a single SEM containing two VCOs with Pulse and Sawtooth waveforms, two ADS Envelope Generators, one LFO, and a magical Multi-Mode Filter. In isolation each SEM is monophonic, but in the 8-Voice, because there are eight SEMs triggered by a polyphonic keyboard, you have a superb eight note polyphonic synthesizer.

This unique Octaphonic architecture offers fresh and exciting creative possibilities to music producers, composers and sound designers for the first time in the digital realm.

An Augmented Yet Authentic Instrument

We’ve painstakingly emulated every section of the synth to ensure sonic authenticity while adding the convenience of software control over those eight SEMs. Mono, Mono Legato, Poly, Unison and Split keyboard modes are all available. Add to this the new VCO3, doubling as an audio rate LFO for each SEM, and a stack of additional performance controls via velocity, polyphonic after-touch and MPE control then you’ll begin to understand the depth of musical possibilities OB-E provides.

A Collaboration With Oberheim And New ‘Vintage’ Control

As we neared the release of OB-E, we were contacted by Tom Oberheim and Marcus Ryle (an Oberheim engineer in the 1980s) who were impressed enough to suggest a collaboration offering support to refine OB-E and to release the v2 update carrying their full endorsement. Despite receiving several Best Soft Synth 2021 awards, working under the guidance of Tom and Marcus, we further enhanced the already incredible sounding OB-E. Refining the Detune feature and adding a new Vintage control, dials in more realistic musical inaccuracies in line with the original instrument for a truly authentic 8-Voice experience.

New in OB-E v2 (Now macOS & Windows)

The enhanced OB-E v2 is a pin sharp emulation of the Oberheim 8-Voice thanks to the new Vintage control and a highly refined Detune parameter. In addition, it’s now available for both macOS and Windows. OB-E v2 features a new reverb, 100+ new Patches (bringing the total to over 700), a new Zoom function for the sequencer along with a crazy new Drum Mode enabling each SEM to be triggered by a dedicated key. We’ve also added 10 drum kit Presets to get you started. If you are looking for a new analog drum machine, give it a go, it might surprise you.

Creative Sequencer, Stereo Delay & Reverb

And that’s not all. With the original MS-1 sequencer as a starting reference point, we’ve integrated an extremely comprehensive and creative 8-step Sequencer providing a flexibility and fun-factor unavailable via the original hardware. In keyboard Split mode with the Sequencer routed to SEM 8, the OB-E provides the ability to create a complete three part soundscape within a single Patch. An all-new routable Stereo Delay and lush Reverb provides sonically complimentary effects.

More Than Eight Voices Put Together

The 8-Voice is not simply eight identical SEMs put together. The interaction of those 8 independent, and slightly different Synthesizer Expander Modules, plays a major role in making the 8-Voice’s sound so incredibly beautiful. The injection of these authentic inaccuracies into each of the eight SEMs in OB-E takes it to another level, one that blurs the lines between the hardware, and makes OB-E the most authentic emulation of the Oberheim SEM sound and 8-Voice instrument.

Finally, we’ve complemented our instrument with 700+ factory Patches designed by Dave Spiers and a roster of brilliant sound designers. Even better, each Patch has been tagged, categorised and is quickly accessible from the OB-E’s librarian (arrow navigation friendly).
