Oberheim OB MX don buchla made this when oberheim was sold to gibson (the company that bought opcode and killed them afterwards) and later to viscount. it had only 2 voices form the factory that were expandable to 12 at quite high prices, thats the reason why it did not succeed.. it has oberheim and moog filters, quite a lot of stuff: 3 lfos, 2 VCOs, 4 ENVs, the OB filtercan be adjusted: bpf,lpf,hpf, the "moog" is a lpf 24dB/oct (what did you think?) ;) turning the knobs does NOT transmit to midi (no sysEx or CC!) and I am sorry to say that sometimes there were steppy/zippersounds when turning the cutoff. anyway it is an interesting synth.. it is NOT another Xpander! there is another layout of the Oberheim OB-MX, it's display is on the right and the knobs have moved a bit ,too.. seems they did it for the japanese area.. this considered to be the "OberM006" (read: OberMoog) the OB-MX had it's advantages for it's moog filters combined with oberheim filters. quite "exotic" because it has never been cheap and it's knobs do not send midi sysex/controllers. some noises while turning knobs.
