Oberheim

Oberheim is a pioneering American synthesiser and electronic instrument brand founded by Tom Oberheim in the early 1970s, celebrated for groundbreaking analog synthesis designs. The company’s classic products, like the SEM, OB-Xa, OB-8, and later Matrix series, helped define rich, warm polyphonic sounds that became staples in electronic, pop, rock, and film scoring. Revered by musicians and producers for their expressive filters and lush textures, Oberheim synths remain influential and highly collectible in both vintage and modern boutique instrument circles.
