The library was developed by Matia Simovich (INHALT & Jupiter Rising) to exude thecharacteristic and moody sound that only an OB analog synth can provide. Everything from Prince-like stabs, long pad bursts, and punchy unison basses have been expertly sampled to provide an organic playing experience within the MPC workflow. The emphasis with this library is capturing the distinct and uniquely analog character of this classic polysynth while also making a diverse set of patches that are all production ready and encompass every sound needed to take your song to the finish line. Also included is a comprehensive classic drum kit, and, when combined with the synth patches, gives birth to the OB SYSTEM.
