It is much more than lfo to pitch modulation, but it is not what you have been asking for.

Yes, I like the way it sounds completely dry.
As great as the reverb is, it kind of turns Obsession into another Dune.

I might be the only one that does not like reverb at all, although it is slightly better than that chorus thing.

Totally unrelated to the sound, but I appreciate that the synth is $99 after taxes, not before. Not sure how it works in Europe but here in the US its pretty standard to say the cost is $99 only to find out that of course it really isn't because taxes are then added on. So kudos on this, not something I see very often.

The only added option I would like to see is extra oversampling for an even better experience.
I am on an i7 2600k @ 4GHz and the CPU hit is really low.
i7-9700K @ 4.6 GHz - Asus Prime Z390-A - Corsair DDR4 32 GB 3600 MHz - Samsung 970 EVO Plus 500 GB - RME HDSPe AIO + XLR balanced breakout - 2x Iiyama PL2492H - Novation Impulse 61 - Evolution UC-16 - Clavia Nord Lead 2 - Yamaha S80

Extra oversampling is not useful in the case of Obsession (it's 4x), according to what Richard told me during beta testing. So, now it's as good as it gets. The Legend needed more, because of the huge amounts of saturation from the filter and amplifier.

Ok, thanks for the info! :)

You know a synth is good, when you can init the preset and randomize the voices and get a good sound.

Interestingly, I think it sounds different/better with forced oversampling thanks to DDMF (the effects even more so) - at least when the project is 48khz.

Finally OBsession was added to the KVR plugins database:

I added it to the "Products related to this topic".

Yes, and it should. At least in theory, I think. If the host sample rate is set at 48 kHz, Obsession operates internally at 192 kHz (48x4). 384 kHz at 96 kHz sample rate (!) and so on...

Lovely musical sounding synth - so alive!

Great synth! Here's hoping for a CS-80 clone next. :hyper:
