    One of the best sounding iOS synths
    This app sounds amazing. To my ears this sounds as good as the Moog synth apps. I’ve owned an ob-6 and own many Oberheim desktop plugins. This app nails the oberheim sound. Show more

    Was Pitiful
    Thanks for this update. Now the app is usable on an iPhone, even though I can't read a single word on the unit - at least I can access presets and the menu. Original Feedback: Simply not usable on an iPhone. You need a magnifying glass to even see the controls, and you NEED those as the presets just auto-scroll from the first 20 to the last 20, missing the bulk of presets in the middle. How anyone can charge money for such a waste of time and not be banned from the app store is a mystery. This is a super pathetic excuse for an app. Show more

    Latest UI improvements make this synth a breeze to use

    The real deal!
    I owned the original OBXA back in 1978. This version is so realistic, I get to shut my eyes and remember great memories of Music School. This is the closest iOS, VST, Au emulation there is in my opinion. Not only 5 stars, but 10 stars of gratitude and awe on how you managed to create this so realistic version of a Monster Synth. A big thank you! Show more

    Oh my!
    Recreated perfectly. The presets alone are worth ten bucks. Nicely done!

    Excellent Synth?
    Great sounding! A lot of USEABLE presets! Incorporating into my live rig.

    Top iOS Synth
    OB-XD is one of my favorite iOS synths and imho one of the best synths available. Im shocked it doesn’t have a higher overall rating. It sounds great, there’s a lot of presets available online, and it’s lightweight as an Au inside AUM. I use it all the time and I’m so happy it got ported over a few years back. Lovely pads, leads, basses, all with a warm, rich sound make this app one of my go to’s. I highly recommend it. The developer is very responsive, and continually provides updates to make sure Ob is going strong. 5 stars! Show more

    Where is Midi Learn function?
    This is a great app, but there doesn’t seem to be any midi learn function.You can’t even assign a simple cc7 or cc 11 for volume control.

    Sounds great
    Very good sound. Wish you could adjust keyboard size.

    OB-Xd review
    5 star. I purchased all Jorge’s apps. I’m trying to recreate that haunting pad sound from Foreigner’s waiting for a girl like you with this app… I think I’ve almost got it! Show more

    ? meh...
    Its not too visible on an iPhone so you really depend on presets... but It’s really more of the same as other synths out there.. and if you scroll through the presets you’re gonna find that there are a bunch of patches that are so similar that you’ll wonder if all they did was do a minor tweak to the same patch and save it over and over as a different patch with every other minor tweak. The high number of patches was the selling point for me, so you can see why this upsetting. Also the patch list menu will get you frustrated when you have to jump back into the patch list with every selection since it disappears after every selecting each patch and just driving you to say “ to heck with this “ I’m not sure if it’ll ever get used in this current state. Too bad because I was really hoping to like it. Show more

    Phat!
    12/11/20 - Nice update! Thanks! Great sounding take on a classic synth! Get it!

    Paraphonic? No Categories Either
    Perhaps I’m overlooking a polyphonic enable function, but it seems I can only play 2 notes at a time? Would like to see sounds broken down by category as well (pads, leads, etc). Show more

    Great sound but odd bug with cutoff freq automation, no CC learn.
    This sounds great and very oberheimish, but for some reason, when I'm recording knob movement automation in Cubasis, the cutoff knob for the filter section doesn't work. Data is recorded, but there's to label for it, (the other knobs generate a label in the automation) I can see the automation recorded in Cubasis, but when it plays back the cutoff knob doesn't move. Its like the data is just "one direction", it records the knob movements but doesn't respond to the automation being played back. I doubt it's a Cubasis issue since all the other knobs are working. Also would be great to have MIDI CC learn so I could use an external controller. Show more

    Sound is a 5 , interface .....
    Would be fantastic to use skins similar to the VSTi version...layout needs fixing to be nice , also fitting in au3 windowed space better would be great. Needs midi keyboard would be best added to the pics too btw . That said I love the sound engine , the vsti is one of my all time favorites coming from a person who’s used them since model e .

    Amassing sounding softsynth
    Great update! I have dozens of iOS and desktop top of the line virtual synths and this one holds its own 100%, great buy and low cpu useage make it one of my favs, kudos to the developer for continuing to upgrade, please continue to do so, this synth is a winner! Show more

    One of the best sounding synths on the iPad
    This synth sounds incredible. Filter is surprisingly authentic, really gets the blood pumping. Sweeps sound amazing. I’m not the best programmer but even I can coax an amazing amount of sounds out this thing, almost every knob adjustment makes something that sounds good. Not every synth has that ability I have found. The presets are really nice too and there are a lot. If you love the OB-X then get this you won’t regret it, idk how anyone can say this emulation is not excellent. Show more

    Please add midi-learn functionality
    Would be great to be able to assign the knobs to midi controllers.
