Our take on the Cherry Audio Eight Voice Synthesizer Software

Cherry Audio Eight Voice is a software recreation of the Oberheim Eight Voice, the huge 1970s polysynth built from eight independent two-oscillator voice modules. Each voice has its own filter, envelopes and tuning, so you can stack them into one massive sound or split them across the keyboard. It runs as a VST, VST3, AU or AAX plugin on 64-bit Windows and macOS, with MIDI mapping and DAW automation on every control. It suits sound designers and fans of vintage analog who want that thick, slightly unstable Oberheim character without maintaining hardware. Against simpler vintage emulations it offers far more depth but takes more work to program.

What reviewers say

Owners of Cherry Audio's vintage emulations generally praise the sound and the depth of the voice architecture, and Eight Voice is well regarded for nailing the Oberheim character. The common complaints are CPU use and the effort needed to program eight voices.

What people mention
  • SoundPraisedUsers say it captures the fat, slightly unstable analog character of the original.
  • CPU loadCriticisedSeveral note high processor use when stacking voices and effects.
  • ProgrammingMixedThe eight-voice design rewards tinkerers but slows down quick patch making.
  • InterfaceMixedSome find the dense, original-style layout cluttered on smaller screens.
  • ValuePraisedBuyers see the perpetual license as a lot of synth for the outlay.

Questions and answers

Is Eight Voice a faithful emulation of the Oberheim Eight Voice?
It models the original's eight independent voice modules, each with two oscillators, a filter and envelopes. Cherry Audio adds MIDI mapping, automation and per-voice panning the hardware did not have.
Which plugin formats and systems does it support?
It runs as VST, VST3, AU and AAX in 64-bit hosts on Windows 7 or later and on macOS. It is a digital download activated with a code.
Is it hard on the CPU?
It can be. Eight voices with effects and unison-style stacking add up, so owners often freeze tracks or raise buffer sizes on older machines.
Can I automate and MIDI-map every control?
Yes. Cherry Audio exposes all parameters to DAW automation and MIDI learn, which is more than the original hardware offered.
Does it include presets?
It ships with a factory preset library covering brass, pads, strings and leads, and you can save your own patches.
Is it a subscription?
No. It is a perpetual license, so you keep the plugin after a one-time purchase.
