If it were not like that, you could not use the pitch wheel as a second mod wheel because usually you do not want to modulate pitch and something else at the same time. And in those rare cases where you do, you can still do it via the mod matrix, which has more than enough slots for such a simple synth.
Thanks for the quick reply e-crooner! Seems like it would be easy enough to just set the pitch bend range to zero when you wanted to mod other parameters and not the pitch bend. Why else would there be a "0" amount for pitch bend range? It just adds another unexpected step and uses another mod slot but it isn't a show stopper by any means.
But wouldn't that pb range of 0 then also apply to the modulation range of whatever you want to modulate?

No, I have several presets where the pitch bend range is set to zero and the pitch wheel still works as expected for other assignments in the mod matrix.

OK, good to know.

the PB has a zero for uni pitch bends

Obsession brings the power of a great polyphonic vintage synthesizer to your fingertips. It combines the astute modeling of voltage-controlled oscillators (VCOs), voltage-controlled filter (VCF) and voltage-controlled amplifier (VCA) with a comprehensive individual voice control that has never been done before.
I'm a huge fan of Synapse Audio & I recently purchased Obsession as an RE in Reason...but I don't believe Synapse Audio has cornered the market on the Oberheim simulation(as I've never heard a better softsynth than SonicProject's OP X Pro.)

https://www.sonicprojects.ch/opxpro2/description.html

The big draw for me with Obsession,is that it's also a rack instrument in Reason and I am a Reason purist and wish to stick with Reason-related synths only.

Anyone else having problems wit Obsession nks files?
If i try to load a preset from the Maschine mk3 hardware it says „Obsession cannot be loaded.“ But i can choose Obsession AU from the plugin list in the software and it works.

To answer myself. NKS works with vst only not AU. After installing the vst version everything works like expected.

Update:

Changelog v1.11 Mac-only (6-Sep-2021)

Native VST3 version added for Apple M1 machines.

The installer has been simplified, detecting whether a Mac computer is Intel or M1-based, then automatically installs the correct package.

Some Magic Mouse devices apparently send spurious mouse wheel messages. To combat this, drop-down menus like the preset menu no longer react to mouse wheel messages, in order to avoid accidental changes.

I’m glad I ran across this. I picked it up direct from Synapse for the same price, and I think the offer was just about to expire
