What's so special about it? A sweet spot, that is wider than the grand canyon... and.. control over performance characteristics is now something that has set the bar high for anything else I play. Connected to a controller with aftertouch, an expression pedal, an external effect or two, etc.. and a single patch can turn into a lost afternoon. There are other synths that sonically are in a similar place.. but the (not so) subtle nuances of the OBs filters / oscillators with the aforementioned controls have jettisoned me into a whole other place. It's really changed the way I approach synthesis. To the OP... I find leaps easier to get to a sound I have in mind, with the OP than any other synth I have, or have owned.
