This driver comes from documentation or community data and has not been checked on real hardware. If you own one, a quick test and a pull request promoting it helps everyone — see CONTRIBUTING.

Share and load its sounds

Plug the Oberheim OB-X into your computer, open shared presets in Chrome, Edge or Opera and press Connect my synth: SynthHub finds it, takes the sound it plays and names it. Sounds others shared for it load from their page the same way.

SynthHub does it with the KnobKraft Orm adaptation for this synth. Its knobs and settings are not mapped yet: its MIDI implementation chart would add them — see CONTRIBUTING.
