Frequently Asked Questions
It records a continuous two-hour loop, which is more of a sonic sketchpad than a full-fledged sampler; quality is decent for experimentation but not professional recording.
The spiral antenna integrated in the handle improves reception noticeably compared to standard Bluetooth speakers, but performance still depends heavily on your location.
The OB-4 prioritizes a unique sonic character and aesthetic; while it’s enjoyable, it might not match the polished, neutral sound signature of more traditional high-end portable speakers.
