Architecture

Faithful where
it matters.

XP60 carries the acclaimed voice architecture and modulation logic of the Oberheim Xpander into a newly built desktop instrument.

Two analogue oscillators, the versatile multimode filter and the deep modulation system form the familiar foundation. The signal path is centred on the AS3372 and tuned towards the character of later Rev D instruments.

The original dual-processor architecture preserves the way the instrument behaves, with 100% compatibility with Xplorer, the established SysEx editor for the Xpander. There is no software emulation and no FPGA recreation.

Interface & build

A familiar system, refined.

The original page-based workflow remains intact. Three displays, modern switches and tactile encoders make the dense architecture clear without diluting it.

Available enclosure colours
Dark and Creamy White
Display options
OLED, VFD or LCD configurations
Turbo Mode
About 50% faster LFOs, LAGs and envelopes
Headphone stage
Dedicated amplifier with four gain settings
Production
Built in carefully controlled small batches

Studio footprint

Smaller footprint.
Same depth.

At 19 inches wide, XP60 brings the full six-voice architecture to a purposeful desktop format—substantially more compact than the instrument that inspired it.

Connectivity

Built to belong in a working studio.

Individual voice outputs and extensive control connections allow the XP60 to sit at the centre of a modern or vintage setup.

Independent instrument making

Made with intent,
in small batches.

XP60 is a specialist instrument for musicians and studios who know why this architecture matters. Every unit is assembled with close attention to calibration, feel and long-term serviceability.
