1:55 That String Pad, is one of the most beautiful sounds I’ve listen so far for the OB6 . Nice job!

[@WrvrUgoThrUR]

indeed. Makes me wanna kick myself for selling my OB-6

[@djleapwarren2716]

You are absolutely right. That one patch is worth the investment... That's how I feel about the Prophet 10 on the default patch 111 too.

[@thesrabbit]

I didn’t think the OB-6 was capable of such a sound. I want to buy the set just to see the parameters for it,

[@apersonontheinternet8034]

Just been trying to replicate it, honestly might have to spend $35 for one patch.

[@Batsinthebelltower]

the chords there were beautiful

[@justinfrombugzy]

Whenever someone says the OB-6 (or anything for that matter) does "one thing" it's like admitting they have no creative imagination. This video proves the OB-6 will do whatever you can dream up, and I nearly puked (out of pure joy) when I heard the Nashville patch. UNNNNNreal playing/programming, you are the GOAT.

[@deeplistening01]

that feeling when you start considering buying a three thousand dollar synth solely to use a thirty five dollar presets pack. excellent work man, these all sound amazing!

[@HarryRauer]

Oh yes, man I totally agree: I think Julian should spend hours and hours on crafting these beautiful sounds and give it away for free to all the knobheads in this world! I will suggest the same to my solicitor, who charges 300 bucks an hour. Btw: you don‘t have to spend three thousand dollars on a OB6 - you can wait until behringer markets the long announced UB-XA - beautifully handcrafted in China for a fraction of the price of the OB.... and maybe in 30 years we can than all move to China with our kids and grand children because in our own countries there will be nothing left, due to chronic „cheap-ism“ of all the cheapskates.

[@gasolineandwine]

@@HarryRauer jesus christ, who spit in your coffee? And better yet, did you not read what the other person wrote? Your reading comprehension is shot I think.

[@HarryRauer]

@@gasolineandwine good morning - at the time I wrote the response I was pretty annoyed by the fact that Behringer pinched the Oberheim brand from Gibson without paying one cent (except to their lawyers). I am generally pretty pi**** off by people who want cheap things cheaper without seeing all the work and craft that's behind a product - and finally contribute to the rise of companies like "Behringer" - that counterfeit products just to maximize their own profit! So that spit in my coffee - BUT: You're absolutely right: I misunderstood the message from the other person. So: mea culpa! Stay safe!

[@theshystudio]

@@gasolineandwine this comment is so good lmao

[@IsraelFerrerCamacho]

@@HarryRauer it is happening this year UB-XA and I just bought an OB6 LOL

[@Danderofox_editz]

Such a great and versatile synth. I've had one a couple of years now, it's my only synth scaled down from about 15 and am now literally building whole tracks off of it. Amazing!

[@patsalty]

Good lord, the strings around 1:56 🙌 Gotta be one of the most beautiful patches I've ever heard

[@NachtSchreck13]

My favorite thing about the ob6 is the incredible sounding bass tones you get when stacking oscillators in unison and detuning.

[@OwensDrumming]

That adagio string patch is absolutely stunning. I love my OB-6

[@downpatmusic]

Your Adagio Con Sordino Strings Patch at 2:00 is so beautiful and lush that I'd like to buy the OB-6 just for this patch as its own instrument. I'd love to hear the VSL Syncrhon Pianos over this (Either the Steinway or Bosendorfer). Great work here J3PO.

[@Jaesee]

Thank you so much for the Yesterday, Reimagined section. I love vintage synths and vintage synth sounds, but it's not the kind of music I make. Being able to hear demos of modern synth sounds that I'd actually use in tracks makes me want this synth even more

[@ChuckSilva]

I just have to make another comment.....this/you are up there with the very best on the planet (you tube).....so inspirational....at one time-not to beat my drum-I toured with Bob James/Kirk Whalum...as we say in Detroit-I appreciate YOU!

[@shawnking9348]

Came back to this vid multiple times- those first two pads are just so beautiful, so emotional. And eventually had to buy the OB6 because of this vid- so thank you Julian you are very inspiring \m/

[@derekbaker3279]

Fantastic Soundset Julian! What a pleasure it was to hear Lyle Mays' signature sound from his early days with Pat Metheny. Lyle will always be one of my favourite contemporary pianists, solo or with Pat. RIP Lyle.

[@jamiepastman5594]

Lyle was a genius, one of the great keyboardists in the era of the greatest (J Zawinul, H Hancock, C Corea, J Hammer, D Stewart, G Duke, K Minnear, etc). His synth work was very under appreciated as he programmed wonderfully subtle evolving organic textures, instead of big flashy patches. And his piano work was utterly sublime

[@bluemichimusic9507]

Hi Julian… you are quickly becoming one of my favourite keyboardists to listen to. Many thanks!

[@c.simonis123]

Great sounds reminding me the Oberheim golden age together with some really sweet and smooth sounds. Good job!

[@ronaldwild]

Sounds so incredible good... The ob-6 (maybe desktop) will be my "OB-8X" hopefully in near future

[@JeffreyC2]

I gotta say - I've purchased quite a few banks of patches from others and these 50 are superb! Thank you J3PO! You are one talented dude!

[@AdamTheAd-vanc3d]

Stunning patches and awesomely demonstrated aswell. More proof of the ob 6's potential in the right hands :-)

[@erictripton]

WOW, this sold me on the vintage patches!!!! Thanks for this, wasn't aware the OB6 can do older Oberheims so well!!!!!

[@matthewmcmichael6416]

Amazing!! Now I just need to get an OB-6

[@johnniecristaldi]

This is the video that convinced me of the OB6 in addition to a video of the new updated OS1.6.4 with the vintage knob function.

[@ironryan2009]

Awesome. Hardly made any music since getting my OB-6, now back into it, loaded in these sounds and updated the OB-6 with the 1.6.6 firmware which gives Vintage Knob mode. Sounds out of this world with this bank of sounds So inspiring

[@AlphaToker]

What is the "vintage knob"?

[@ironryan2009]

@@AlphaToker it’s added to the OB-6 with the latest OB-6 firmware update - when turned on in the new menu, the define knob becomes a vintage knob. Oscillators and filters become increasingly unstable like a vintage synth the more the knob is turned, and it sounds amazing.

[@davebellamy4867]

@@ironryan2009 Detune knob. 😂😊 Autocorrect caught you out there I bet. By the way, that's the Slop knob equivalent on the Prophet-6. I haven't updated my OB6 yet.

Would love to see a comparison between this and the TEO5. Great patches!

[@DankBibz]

please make more OB6 patches

[@jamiepastman5594]

just bought one. i own too many synths, but had to get an Ob6, the sound is so freakin organic and warm - unless you crank that filter, then look the fuck out, whoa. Got a mint desktop for $1475, couldn’t say no….

[@lasideasfugazes]

Probably my favourite video about this magnificent synth. Still thinking seriously about getting one...

[@pco2004]

Impressive. Love the retrowave, soundtrack and 80s classic patches but man that Nashville patch is so unique!

[@marcuswilespage]

Adagio con sordino is so beautiful. Definitely making use of that filter. My P6 can’t do that! Lol

[@thesearethesuns]

Wow, stunning! Keep up the good work! :)

[@Batsinthebelltower]

11:11 arpeggios remind me of the old capcom logo jingle before street fighter 2 loads up

[@Batsinthebelltower]

Recently got a ob6 module, controlling with 61key triton extreme. Loving the sounds, but recently borrowed a juno 106 and it has SO much more bass and warm muffled filter sounds , i was very surprised. When i play the ob6 now it feels more sophisticated than the juno but lacks that warm bass . Im a n00b to analog so maybe its just me , any advice or opinions welcome !

Yes Nice patches. And Now I want an OB-6 😄👊🏼👍🏻

[@danielcolfer4671]

Please Dave Smith a 61 and 76 key version

[@jonasness]

Thanks so much, I bought this patch bank last week and I'm having a lot of fun with your sounds! I absolutely love my OB-6. I bought it after I sold off my Oberherim Matrix 1000, Oberheim Matrix 6, and Oberheim DPX-1, and it's definitely made up for their departure, yet adds so much more. The only minor issue I have with my OB-6 is that I'm horrible at remembering which numbers I save my patches under, which takes some finesse to arrange before a live performance. I have several other DSI / Sequential synths and I got so used to naming patches after the songs I write.... whereas the song "Roller Girl" will have the patches named according to where they are used in the song, (Roller Girl Pad, Roller Girl Arp, Roller Girl Lead, etc.). So yeah, with the OB-6 I just have to organize them better and write them down. Luckily, for this patch set, I had patches 250 - 299 all ready to go. I highly recommend purchasing this patch bank to other users. Thanks again!

[@knobkraft8131]

Know what you mean! Have look at the tool that I made especially to sort patches for DSI synths: github.com/christofmuc/KnobKraft-orm It's free.

[@dmomcilovic9185]

Nice bits of Zapp too

[@deancol4080]

Thanks for posting. Patches sound great. Is the OB-6 not the thickest sounding, most use-able analog synth for covering modern music for over past 40 years or so?

[@TenTwentyEight]

You should make your own Analog lab bank

[@dmomcilovic9185]

2:00 is an awesome patch

[@dirkkeersmaekers4343]

Roland en Oberheim pads are the best

[@jmcbeady8210]

Well done.

[@robertfischer1895]

Why can't I identify "Dance Floor Pad" at 8:28? It's driving me nuts--it's a song I love. What is it!

[@tartan_ninja]

Puts me in mind of Vogue, Madonna. Flash and the Pan - Waiting for a Train also similar-ish.

[@BucF16]

Waiting for Vol II my friend!

[@shaft9000]

[have OB-Xa 6-voice here] This synth sounds of a convergence of 3rd-wave DSI and (some) OB-8. I don't think it compares so well to any of the other OBs; too little modulation to be a Matrix, and not dirty and bombastic enough to be OB-X(a). But a great alternative to dying/limited OB-8s and other new DSI, nonetheless. It certainly has those 'warm mids' and _some_ of those airy highs of older OBs (perhaps YT algo is mangling it here)...but then so does a matix1000 for -under- half the price [EDIT - holy crap these little things have skyrocketed...I got one for $150 in 1997].

[@kierenmoore3236]

Straight up, how would you describe the sound of the OB6 vis-a-viz the OB-8x … ?! 🤔 Is it basically just in line with the Prophet-5/10 > P6 > Rev2 pecking order, in terms of vintage sound and heft?

[@rubs1989]

Hey , super nice sounds! Can I use them with the Prophet rev 2 seq?

[@joshtackett]

Hey J3PO, which synth would you recommend as a good first/only synth? I've got loads of great softsynths but wanting to get into the hardware world. I'm considering the Prophet 6, OB-6 or Pro 3, but would be open to any suggestion you have!

[@elementlab41]

Anyone know what on-stage stand he's using here? it's perfect-along with his playing/sound design!

[@someordinarydude8813]

15:32 that sound just takes me places...

[@hazelelcamino7453]

Are these sounds based around the new vintage knob or the older slop knob? Just curious, as I just updated mine and like these patches a lot.

[@Skiroy]

How are you doing the arp stuff? Is that the built in arp or you have a external sequencer?

[@j3po784]

there's an on-board arp! ;)

[@joostderoij6040]

Hi Julian…. I would love it if you would make this very same pack for the prophet 6….

[@andywhitfield9849]

How can you as an advocate of this machine be prepared to then prepare yourself for the OBX re-release?

[@Raphael_Jeandenand]

Hi, fantastic patches ! Why did you record this session with headphones output ?

[@danielcolfer4671]

Need the intro the let it whip. Please program that sound I’ll buy it from you.

[@joseluque03]

🔥🔥

[@777Witness]

Is there any external processing applied here? Eq, reverb?

[@j3po784]

a little eq and compression for leveling and uploading to KZbin, but all chorus, delay, reverb, distortion, etc. are coming from within the synth itself

[@ChuckSilva]

FANtastic!!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@danielcolfer4671]

Picking one up today. How do I get those patches?

How quiet is yours when you record it? Mine's at like -30db. The outputs are consumer level apparently

[@DarianClarkMusic]

"BYOW" I love it! 😂

[@tomloncaric6189]

Awesome programming, this is the overall best I’ve ever heard an OB6 sound! Your string patch at 1:55 is blowing my mind. Do you think you could get a comparable patch from a Prophet 6? (P6 is what I have)

[@tendingtropic7778]

i'd like to know that too. should be possible!

[@ZlinMusic]

The Prophet 6 honestly produces some of the best string type sounds of any synth I've owned, but this OB6 patch surprised me. Luke Neptune did make a patch somewhat similar on the Pro 6 if you skip to 57 seconds on this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/l3fOp36lm5toa68

[@JoelBouchillon]

Does the OB6 offer S/H (sample-&-hold) as a choice of LFO waveform?

[@Jauly]

yes

[@domlisboa4024]

What does “official sounds” mean? It infers something from Oberheim. They sound great but just seem to be sounds that you have made and are selling.

None. It's all the internal FX of the synth and the sound of the OB-6. There's some slight compression/limiting on the upload to KZbin, but there are no external FX.
