Dave Smith Instruments has announced a desktop module version of the OB-6 analog synthesizer.

The OB-6 desktop module is just as powerful and easy to use as its counterpart, the OB-6 Keyboard. The module has all of the same controls as the keyboard version and provides the same immediacy and ease of use. As with the OB-6 Keyboard, all parameters are at your fingertips, with full-sized knobs and switches and a comfortable, intuitive layout.

How does it sound? Massive — just like the keyboard, because on the inside, it’s exactly the same. The same analog signal path with discrete VCOs and VCFs. The same high-quality digital effects. The same classic Oberheim sound that has been earning raves from musicians around the world.

We’ve also added a poly chain feature so that any two OB-6s can be paired for twelve-voice polyphony!

The OB-6 desktop module will be available in the early fall, with an estimated price of $2,299 USD.
