The OP-Xa V takes the immense analog power of the fat, aggressive sounding OB-Xa from the 80s charts to the modern era. Faithful to the sound of the original and supercharged, OP-Xa V will take you for a wild sonic ride.

Legendary Growl Machine
Huge brasses, strings, and pads made the OB-Xa dominate the hottest artists' keyboard stands, from Prince to Van Halen's iconic 'Jump'.

With OP-Xa V, that same unmistakable presence comes to life right in your DAW. There's just something about the sound that invites you to dig in with both hands and come up with great parts. True Analog Emulation ensures an authentic muscle car synthesizer experience - while Arturia's added touches add heaps of production horsepower that'll get your creativity racing.

The Poly that Could
Oberheim already had a legacy of fat-sounding synths. But for many, the OB-Xa was the one that hit the sweet spot.

The OB-Xa packed up to eight massive-sounding synthesizer voices in an integrated, programmable slab form factor. After its debut in December 1980, musicians noticed.

Founded by Tom Oberheim, Oberheim Electronics' first product was a ring modulator pedal introduced in 1970. Then came the Maestro phaser, then the DS-2A, an early digital sequencer that could record and playback notes from popular analog synths in real time -- a mind-blowing feat for 1973. Its success led Oberheim to design his own synthesizer: the Synthesizer Expander Module.
