the ob arp is the best part, it turns into a magical beast. although, i think the prophet 10 has a great overall tone, i have to go obie with it’s shimmering top end and can also do crazy bass lines.
Yes. I agree with your sound analysis Anyway I really cannot say which is the best and I even don’t want to. I l think they are 2 superb analog sounding synths 😀
@@smvproducer bought the OB X8 and love it! Looking at getting a Prophet 10 as they are on sale now for almost 1k off so 3k for the Prophet 10 versus the almost 5k that I paid for the OB X8 seems great combo. I think P10 has better low end and self oscillator filters but Oberheim wins on the arp and pads/lead sounds.
Hello... sorry😐 I forgot to cover this. Anyway the P10 has just one type of portamento that I think is linear ( even if in the manual is not specified ). The OBX8, on the other hand, has more options.Normal or linear that was on the original OBX and OBXA, Exponential mode, Equal time mode and Portamento bend mode. Plus there is a Portamento Match function, that when is on, makes all voices portamento times identical. While if is off, they are slightly different.
I think that they have some things that could seem similar. But as soon you start to design sounds with them, they unveil their characters and the different project philosophy that was behind them
Thank you for such an indepth comparison, you always mesmerise us with your depth of tutorials and sounds. I wish I had enough money to buy it 🙃
Thank you for your beautiful feedback, and I really wish you to realize what you want 😀

@@GuitarsAndSynths my congrats 😀. About the sound, I think that the Prophet has louder medium frequencies. The OBX8 has more high end.
Ciao caro. Lo sai, io voto per l'OB ❤
UN BACIONE

Ciao ;) Si si, conosco la tua preferenza. Ma ho fatto una comparativa per mostrare le similitudini e le differenze tra i due synth. Un abbraccio 😃
Thank you so much. Any comments about polyphonic portamento cababilities of these great synths?👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👋🏼👋🏼👋🏼

I have the Oberheim OB X8 and wonder is the Prophet 10 different enough to buy if I already have an Oberheim?
