IK Multimedia is offering the Syntronik OXa (€49.99 value) virtual synthesizer as a completely free download for their newsletter subscribers until June 17th, 2020. Both existing and new subscribers are eligible for the freebie offer.
OXa is a sample-based virtual instrument featuring the sounds of two analog four-voice classics: the Oberheim OB-X and OB-Xa synthesizers. These two legendary instruments were manufactured in the late 1970s and early 1980s. The most notable use of the OB-Xa synthesizer was in the famous keyboard riff on Van Halen’s “Jump,” but it’s capable of generating a broad range of synth sounds. The OB-Xa is also excellent for analog bass sounds, pads, and all sorts of analog keys.

Syntronik uses audio samples as the sound source but provides a deep synthesis engine to match the sonic manipulation characteristics of the emulated hardware instruments. It features circuit-modeled filters and uses IK Multimedia’s DRIFT technology for emulating subtle oscillator variations of analog hardware.
With the OXa plugin, the user gets full access to the oscillator tuning, filter, performance controls, and the modulation section with dual AHDSR envelopes and multi-shape LFOs. The user can further enhance the sound with 38 effect modules that were derived from IK Multimedia’s popular AmpliTube and T-RackS products.
OXa is typically priced at €49.99, but you can get it for free until June 17th by subscribing to IK Multimedia’s mailing list. Here’s the announcement from IK Multimedia:
