Common GForce Oberheim OB-X Virtual Analog Synthesizer Plug-in Questions
How do I configure my MIDI controller to work properly with the GForce OB-X?
In the OB-X plugin settings, navigate to the MIDI tab and select your MIDI controller from the input device dropdown. Ensure that MIDI Learn is enabled if you want to assign knobs and sliders manually, otherwise the default mappings should work.
Where are the presets stored and how do I back them up for the GForce OB-X?
OB-X presets are stored in a dedicated folder specific to your operating system, typically within your user Documents folder under 'GForce Software'. Back up this entire folder to safeguard your custom sounds.
I'm not getting any sound! What are the first things I should check in the OB-X plugin?
First, ensure the OB-X plugin is enabled and receiving MIDI data in your DAW. Then, verify that the master volume knob in the OB-X interface is turned up and the filter cutoff is open enough to pass audio.
How can I use the Oberheim SEM filter emulations and what are the sonic differences?
The OB-X features independent SEM filter controls per voice; experiment with different SEM filter modes (High Pass, Low Pass, Band Pass, Notch) and amounts for unique tonal variations. You can also select different models based on revisions, A, B, C, and D, each with a slightly different sonic character.
How do I use the eight-voice mode on the GForce OB-X?
In the settings page, select the 'Eight Voice' mode. This emulates the OB-X's eight dual-oscillator voice architecture allowing rich and complex sounds, at the expense of CPU resources.
