GForce, in collaboration with Oberheim, has introduced Oberheim TVS Pro, a software emulation of the original Two Voice Synthesizer from 1975.
Here’s what they have to say about it:
“In 1975, Tom Oberheim revolutionised synthesizer design with the original TVS – Two Voice Synthesizer. By combining two SEMs and a keyboard, he introduced true duophony to the world—enabling musicians to play two independent voices simultaneously and explore harmonically rich, evolving soundscapes. It was a bold step forward, embraced by visionaries including Martin Gore, Adrian Utley, Peter Baumann, Lorn, The Prodigy, and Nils Frahm.
Decades later, the TVS Pro modernized that vision, adding a built-in sequencer, extended modulation, and refined controls—all while staying true to its unmistakable sonic DNA.
Now, with the GForce Oberheim TVS Pro plugin, this landmark instrument enters a new era. Developed in collaboration with Oberheim, this recreation captures not only the depth, warmth and character of the original, but also the spirit of innovation that made it extraordinary.”

Pricing and Availability:

it cannot sound like the original if it is not white.
A third oscillator is a welcome thing, especially with the more potent sequencer. The fact that they collaborated with Oberheim means fans of the line are going to make out well. It’d make a colorful partner for a Sequential Pro 3, which feels like a close cousin.
The graphic had me fooled for a second. I thought it was hardware synth.
Slightly off topic- stoked to read that Lorn’s finally being acknowledged as a top tier sound designer in synth promos.
Dude’s an incredible musician.
