Overview

Unleash a vintage powerhouse with modern flexibility and control.

The Behringer UB-Xa D is a masterful tribute to one of the most iconic synthesizers in history. With its 16 voices, dual VCOs per voice, and authentic 3340 and 3320 semiconductor designs, the UB-Xa D faithfully recreates the legendary sound of the OB-Xa while introducing modern enhancements. Designed for desktop or rack-mount operation, this multi-timbral synthesizer fits seamlessly into any studio or stage setup, delivering powerful analog sound wherever inspiration strikes.

Faithful Recreation With Modern Enhancements

The UB-Xa D brings the growl and sizzle of the original OB-Xa into the modern age, complete with its original factory patches. Its vintage mode offers eight selectable synthesizer signatures, including the OB-Xa and OB-8, while its bi-timbral capability lets you split or layer two sounds for massive, complex tones. With selectable 12/24dB low-pass filters, adjustable resonance, and rich modulation options, the UB-Xa D provides everything needed to recreate classic hits or forge new sonic paths.

Endless Sound Sculpting Potential

The UB-Xa D is equipped with an 8-channel modulation matrix that unlocks vast sonic possibilities. Its 26 rotary controls and additional parameters give you hands-on control over every aspect of sound design, from VCOs and LFOs to ADSR envelopes and VCAs. Dual LFOs with seven waveforms and MIDI clock sync allow for intricate modulation, while velocity and after-touch sensitivity enhance expressive performance. The UB-Xa D is a sound designer's dream, offering unparalleled flexibility.

Play, Save, and Perform

With 512 user program memories, the UB-Xa D ensures you'll never lose your favorite sounds. Its "compare and match" feature lets you quickly match analog controls to stored program values, while assignable preset recall switches allow seamless transitions during live performances. The dual-layer arpeggiator and sequencer with real-time transpose further expand the UB-Xa D's performance capabilities, enabling you to create dynamic, evolving compositions with ease.

Integration and Connectivity

Designed for modern workflows, the UB-Xa D includes comprehensive MIDI implementation, MIDI Polyphonic Expression (MPE), and USB connectivity for seamless integration with your setup. Its servo-balanced outputs ensure pristine audio quality, while CV and pedal inputs offer additional control options. Whether you're using it as a standalone synth or integrating it into a larger rig, the UB-Xa D adapts effortlessly to your needs.

Legacy Meets Innovation

The Behringer UB-Xa D is more than a synthesizer—it's a celebration of analog history combined with cutting-edge technology. With its authentic sound, powerful modulation capabilities, and intuitive controls, it's a versatile tool for musicians, producers, and sound designers. Whether you're channeling the spirit of the '80s or creating future-forward tracks, the UB-Xa D gives you the tools to make your mark on music history.
