Oberheim DX

by

“Vintage Oberhiem DX Drum Machine all functions, buttons, and sliders tested great. With power cord, full manual is downloadable for free online. I’m not sure about any expansion roms, but it seems that there are some extra chips and possible board enhancements through comparison with pictures of other units. The “DX sync-to-tape” board for instance is not inside any other unit I could find pictures of online. That’s not to say it wasn’t factory standard, i just don’t know if it was or not.” Click here to search for synths on eBay

Oberheim OB-8

by

“This is an early model Oberheim OB-8 analog synthesizer from late 1982 and “Does Not” have factory MIDI. It has a small dent in the rear of the unit shown in the photos. Program 5 led is slightly brighter than the rest, one of the reasons for the lower price point. It looks like it was replaced before I owned the unit. I have it for almost 10 years and never had any issues. The same led comes on very dim when program 1 is pressed, please see the power on photo, it is hardly noticeable. My studio is well lit and always thought it was because the led was newer. All the programs work great! I do not ship internationally and only ship to the lower 48 states. If you have any questions please contact me. I will consider any reasonable offer. Get it while you can! Somebody “will” get this big boy if the price is right! They are selling for over $4k and the MIDI kit is cheap if you want to upgrade. I never had the need to use MIDI. It’s a super performance and recording keyboard, especially if you like Rush and Van Halen or other groups that used this type of keyboard!” Click here to search for synths on eBay

Oberheim Matrix 6

by

“Used Oberheim Matrix 6 keyboard with the following included: power cord, foot pedal, manual, sound patches cassette, some midi cables and travel case. The unit will be shipped in the travel case along with all of the mentioned items in the case front pocket.

I tested the unit and all buttons are in working order. All output jacks are working. All keys (black and white) are working. Both shifters are working. Volume control is working. Did not get to test the MIDI jacks.

Due to the age of the keyboard, I must disclose the following items.

•The display is not working properly. I did some research and I believe that a battery may need replacing.

•Minimal body scuffs but there is one dent in the corner top of the keyboard. Does not effect the play of the keyboard.

•And finally, the foot pedal does not work properly. Not sure if it is the pedal or the jack. It may be a setting on the keyboard that controls the foot pedal but with the display not working properly, I could not figure it out. The foot pedal is sold as.” Click here to search for synths on eBay

Oberheim OB-8

by

“This is an early model Oberheim OB-8 analog synthesizer and does not have factory MIDI. The unit is in excellent functional shape. It has a small dent in the rear of the unit shown in the photos. I’ve never had any issues with the presence of this dent. I purchased the unit with this issue and the previous seller did not have issues either. I have replaced the entire keybed with new contacts and thoroughly cleaned the unit. The volume knob sometimes has a slightly scratchiness only while turning when not in use for a while which is normal for its age. All buttons and knobs work as far as I can tell. It has all the original patches as far as I know. There is nothing like the sound of an OB-8! I have purchased many newer analog synthesizers and just don’t have room for this monster. It has a lovely warm 80’s sound! I “Do Not Ship Internationally” and only ship to the lower 48 states, Please No Inquiries. The unit is being shipped “As Is” because of its age. The unit has many internal boards that have not been removed so it should be fine to ship.” Click here to search for synths on eBay

Oberheim Strummer

by

“Tracking down vintage gear? I’ve had this in my closet boxed and now putting it on eBay. The “Strummer” listens to chords played on your MIDI keyboard and plays them back to your MIDI sound source (Synthesizer or Sampler) just as they would be played from a guitar. Not only will the chord voicings be correct, but the chords can actually be “Strummed!” With the “Strummer,” you can even change the speed and direction of your “Strums” just by changing the way you play your MIDI keyboard. Also, “Strummer” has the ability to distinguish the difference between chords and single notes, allowing you to send chords out on one MIDI channel (Distorted Guitar Sound for example) while your single notes are sent out on a different channel (i.e. Solo Sound). Your keyboard may have a great guitar sound, but can you play a great guitar part? Yes. The Oberheim Strummer will transform your keyboard playing into a stunning and convincing performance featuring realistic guitar articulation. It comes in the original Oberheim box with manual and ac adaptor.” Click here to search for synths on eBay

Oberheim Matrix 1000 Project Machine

by

“This Oberheim Matrix 1000 was fully functional until someone had it for a few weeks and did something to it. It will not start up now. The fuse looks good and didn’t blow but it shows no display activity now. All six voices and all functions worked prior to shut-down. It may be the power supply, or regulators, or display, or something else. Since I haven’t got the equipment or expertise for the task, it must go. No returns. The six narrow CEM3396 chips are all present. See pics. Includes power cable, fuse, screws, and the synthesizer as shown. Heavily double-boxed for travel.” Click here to search for synths on eBay

Oberheim Matrix 12 Project Machine

by

“Up for auction is a vintage Oberheim Matrix 12 synthesizer. Unit has a few bumps, marks, and scrapes cosmetically, and one key is broken. Functionally I have provided two links to videos below to demonstrate that the synthesizer powers up and all keys and controls function, however it does not operate correctly. My original plan was to get this instrument properly serviced and have any issues repaired, however I have found no one in my area worthy of the task. Therefore, instead of paying to ship the unit back and forth to a proper technician, I am offering it as is, just to test the waters. The tuning sometimes passes and sometimes fails but usually fails across the board. Occasionally, as demonstrated in the videos, I can get some functionality out of the default patch upon startup, but usually just garbage sounds. From my research the issue could be as simple as replacing the power cable input, which I will do if this auction ends without a sale, as the part is available and inexpensive. I am aware my opening price is high, but there is no reserve. The question is, how bad do YOU want what has been called by many the baddest analog synthesizer ever made?! This one is available and ready for you to refresh and make your own 🙂 ” Click here to search for synths on eBay

100% fully functioning. Recently serviced and calibrated in late March 2018 by Nick Montoya of Moog Music. This is one of the finest examples you’ll find.

The only cosmetic imperfection is a small, light scratch above the volume knob, and on the outside of the case, there’s are a couple of small tears. It looks almost new.” Click here to search for synths on eBay

When you turn it on it says “CONNECT SYNTH” based on some googling that means it’s version 2.X or lower.” Click here to search for synths on eBay

Oberheim Matrix 1000

“This is the great Oberheim Matrix 1000, with 1000 pure analog patches. This synth packs so many sounds, it can be overwhelming. I’m also pairing it with an Alesis Qudraverb. The two together are perfect for most synth needs. The Obi works great but the volume pot is a little scratchy, I used it mainly with my Keystep for a year or so, and only in my house. From what I was told it is all original and no mods or updates have been done. Not sure if Ive gone through every patch, but the ones Ive used sounded amazing. Quadraveb is in decent shape, Ive noticed that if you move it around alot the output can cut off, but is not really an issue for studio usage.” Click here to search for synths on eBay
