(December 2010) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message) Oberheim Electronics is a manufacturer of audio synthesizers and a variety of other electronic musical instruments. Founded in 1969 by Tom Oberheim (a former designer and contract manufacturer for Maestro).
The OB-1 was later replaced by the OB-X and OB-Xa, which abandoned the relatively bulky SEMs in favor of individual or compact voice cards, and common cabinetry and power supplies. Oberheim introduced the Xpander in 1984, and further developed that product line with the Matrix-6 and the Matrix-12.

Oberheim went bankrupt and was acquired in 1985 by a group of lawyers who changed the name to Oberheim ECC. Tom was creatively still at the helm, although he left the company within a couple of years to start a new venture called Marion Systems.

After a second bankruptcy in early 1988, Gibson Guitar Corporation, a larger musical instrument manufacturer (who, incidentally, also owned the Maestro brand), acquired Oberheim.
Originally a manufacturer of electronic effects devices (most notably the Maestro phase shifter), and briefly an ARP Instruments dealer, Oberheim went on to create several ground-breaking products in the early days of synthesizers and electronic music including the DS-2 (one of the first digital music sequencers ).
The GM 1000 HPS is a further development of the well-known GM 2000 QCI of 10micron with the same tried and tested mechanics! The new GM 1000 HPS also has highly accurate absolute encoders on both axes, which opens up completely new possibilities. The homing is omitted, the mount never loses the orientation, even if one moves the axes by hand.
