Embrace the legacy and make your mark on history with the UB-Xa from Behringer. More than just a recreation of a classic synthesizer, we’ve made sure that the UB-Xa has all the bells, whistles and characteristics that came with the original, but it’s also filled to the brim with modern features such as velocity and after-touch, 512 user program memories and comprehensive MIDI implementation. This makes for a well-rounded synth that’ll make friends with anything in your setup.
Analog polyphonic synthesizer and authentic reproduction of classic OB-Xa including original factory patches
Vintage mode allows selection of 8 synthesizer signatures including OB-Xa, OB-8 and more
16 voices with 2 VCOs per voice and oscillator sync mode
Multi-timbral capability allows splitting or layering 2 different sounds
VCOs and VCFs based on reproductions of original 3340 and 3320 semi conductor designs
Both VCOs generate sawtooth, triangle or square waveforms with variable pulse width
Selectable dual-slope 12/24 dB analog low-pass filter per voice with adjustable resonance
61 semi-weighted full-size keys featuring poly after-touch and velocity sensitivity
Flexible 8-channel modulation matrix for dramatic expansion of sonic possibilities
Dual-layer arpeggiator and sequencer with real-time sequence transpose
Velocity and after-touch can be optionally used for more expressive performance
2 dedicated LFOs with 7 waveform shapes for modulation of pulse width, oscillator pitch and filter cutoff frequency
2 ADSR generators per voice for control of VCF and VCA
Stereo VCA per voice to allow control over voice/layer panning
26 rotary controls give direct and real-time access to all important parameters
High-quality LCD Display with encoder for rapid parameter editing
Assignable preset recall switches for immediate program selection
Spring-loaded pitch and assignable modulation paddles provide total hands-on performance
512 user program memories with “compare and match” feature to quickly match all analog controls to stored program values
Fully servo-balanced outputs for highest signal integrity
CV/pedal inputs for connection to expression pedals and footswitches
MIDI Polyphonic Expression (MPE) to enable multidimensional controllers and multiple parameters per note
Comprehensive MIDI implementation (including NRPN/CC control of all parameters and bulk load/save)
To recreate its iconic growl and sizzle, we dove deep into the inner workings of the original OB-Xa and brought them into the 21st century including all its original factory patches that made the 80s roar. Thanks to its VCOs and VCFs heavily based on the original 3340 and 3320 chip designs, 16 voices and the ability to split its keyboard so you can layer 2 different sounds, the UB-Xa is capable of conjuring up massive sounding riffs.
The UB-Xa is a synth like no other that stands on the shoulders of giants! Its legacy is what gave birth to the 80s most iconic hits from the world’s most famous artists! From Rush’s Geddy Lee, The Police, Prince to Van Halen, and even the iconic Terminator theme composed by Brad Fiedel, the UB-Xa’s lineage is filled only with the greats and now you can make your own mark on history as well.
