Just to say i love this Synth
« on: February 12, 2013, 10:10:32 am »
hi guys,
just a quick note to say i love the Oberheim synth. i bought the v collection 3 some 2 weeks ago, and i love it.
i had some problems making it work, and unfortunately for 2 weeks i didnt get support from arturia.
luckily steinberg tech came with the solution.

anyhow, love the bundle, love the oberheim. beautiful clean sounds. miami vice written all over it. :)
this bundle is basically my whole vst collection now. next to this i have cubase 7, nord lead 1 keys, novation nova desktop.

Hi,

To me it's a joke.
It doesn't compare in any way with a real oberheim synth.
It just sound plastic to my ears compared to the real one.
Ho sure on a single note you can make it sound " like " but once you tweak a sequence you understand the joke....
I wish i didn't buy it.

It's also very buggy compared to the other arturia synths ( freeze, cracks & pops etc...)

hi mate,

Really? Weird.. i dont have that with the Oberheim. Its really stable.
The Analog Laboratory crashes all the time, all others are stable within Cubase. But arturia says with a new update my problem might be solved.

Honestly i played mostly with the Jupiter and CS80 untill now... but so far, the Oberheim sounds crispy clean to me.
The 1 on 1 comparison cant be made by myself: i never owned one. :)

Well it may or may not be buggy (i find this version stable)...but as far as sounding like a real oberheim its very very close

Played with it again the other day... really starting to like it. All knobs now assigned to my nord lead 1, which makes it loads of fun.
Anyone knows if there are any new presets by the way, somewhere online?

Close on a single note maybe.... but once you start tweaking a sequence you understand the power of the original !

You mean the original that also cost $99?


Seriously if you think youre going to get a 100% replica for the price of the arturia plugin then perhaps you should stick to hardware...i think it sounds plenty close enough for that price. In fact Id go as far to say that its one of the best software synths on the market at the moment.
