The Oberheim Prommer is a monophonic sampler capable of programming EPROM chips for use in Oberheim DMX, Linn, Simmons, and Sequential drum machines, allowing you to use your own samples in these devices. The device can be triggered by MIDI, or via the pre-MIDI Oberheim Parallel Buss. [3]
The DSX equipped with the Oberheim Serial Buss, a pre-MIDI proprietary parallel bus designed to directly interface the DSX with Oberheim's OB-Xa or OB-8 synthesizers along with their DMX drum machine. Connection was via a heavy 1:1 cable, which plugged from the host DSX to the target synthesizer using a rear DB-37 connector.
