Description :
OBERHEIM SEM – A SIMPLE MONOPHONIC SYNTHESIS WITH A HUGE SOUND:
When Tom Oberheim created the first Oberheim® synthesizer expansion module (model SEM-1) in 1974,
He had one goal – to make a synthesizer that sounded great and was also very easy to use.
In the decades since the release of this iconic synthesizer, it has been used by countless legendary musicians,
making the SEM one of the most revered synthesizers of all time.
In addition to carefully recreating the huge, unmistakable sound of the SEM, the GForce Oberheim SEM also recreates the ethics of the original
A simple monophonic synthesizer that lets you create incredible sounds in an instant.
And with Tom Oberheim’s seal of approval, you can be sure of its authenticity. Add to this over 400+ categorized patches,
and inspiration will be just moments away.

MADE IN COOPERATION WITH OBERHEIM:
We first worked with Tom Oberheim and Markus Reil (an inspiring Oberheim engineer in the 80s) to create the GForce Oberheim OB-E® v2. At this time, Tom and Marcus said that in their opinion there were no SEM software emulators that accurately recreated the sound and essence of the original mono SEM. We decided to change that, and under the careful guidance of Tom and Markus, we developed the GForce Oberheim SEM to deliver the authentic sound of the original instrument.

AUTHENTIC SEM SOUND:
Centered around two VCOs with Pulse and Sawtooth waveforms, two ADS Envelope Generators, one LFO and the magical, legendary Multi-Mode Filter, the SEM sound is more than the sum of its parts. In the GForce Oberheim SEM, each synthesizer section has been carefully modeled to ensure sonic authenticity. We’ve even simulated the true analog inaccuracies of the original SEM, blurring the lines between analog nature and digital precision. All this makes GForce Oberheim SEM the most authentic SEM sound emulation available.

SIMPLE SOUND NEVER SOUNDS SO GOOD:
The beauty of SEM truly lies in its simplicity. With its sophisticated design and feature set, you can easily create warm bass, soaring leads and sweeping harps in an instant. This allows you to spend less time shaping sound and more time creating music.

IMPROVED WHERE IT MATTERS:
While staying true to the original SEM, we’ve also added a number of enhancements to make the GForce Oberheim SEM even more useful for modern music production. Along with the new VCO3, which doubles as an audio frequency LFO for additional modulation and FM capabilities, the SEM now features tempo-synced LFOs with multiple waveforms, as well as a variety of performance controls via speed and aftertouch. We’ve also integrated a fun, fast arpeggiator and sequencer, added stereo delay and a great reverb to sonically complement your sounds.
Finally, we’ve included 400+ factory patches designed by top sound engineers, each created to showcase the SEM’s incredible sonic character. Each patch has been categorized and is quickly accessible from the patch browser (easy navigation using arrows). SEM even integrates with the GForce Oberheim OB-E, allowing users to load their SEM presets into any device. This allows you to quickly sketch out your sounds in SEM and then instantly make them polyphonic.
