Re: OB8 versus Xpander

2008-08-09 by Karl

Hello Jeremy,

When I have played an OB8 It seems to have a lot more thick going on.
( Don't own one, Wish I did )
If I remember right the OB8 does not have velocity sensing. So 
all the voices are full on. Where in the Xpander the voices are 
lower in volume to allow velocity to kick them up. Maybe thats why.
