Overview of AlyJamesLab OB-XTRM

What happens when you take eight mono synths and use them together? Huge analog sound! This sound is the result of slight imperfections between each voice card and, because of some electronic components (mis)behavior, parts from the original circuit (notably the OB-X) caused all sorts of distortion happening at different stages from filter to VCA and also at the output stage, OB-Xtreme place special attention to the later with an emphasis on "the Growl."

There is a lot to say about what V2 is, and I can already say what it is not: a simple V1 cross-platform update. V2 is a complete remake. While V1 was a more straightforward take on an OB voice card architecture, V2 is more closely related to original OB designs and specs (including features from OB-X, OB-Xa, etc.). It is not a direct V1 replacement. Nevertheless, it got a Legacy mode for Envelope Generators and Filter control so that V1 sounds can be reproduced or made (more on that later).

V2 has higher specs in every part of the circuit, and it comes as an upgraded gift to all V1 owners. V1 owners will get it free or use a "give what you want" option.
