Hi Maarten,

years ago, I scanned the 2nd edition:
  http://www.chrismusic.de/synth/schematics/ob-x/ob-x.zip
  http://www.chrismusic.de/synth/schematics/ob-x/ob-x_pcb.zip

OB-X.zip     is the service manual & schematics (b&w TIFs)
OB-X_PCB.zip is the PCB artwork (grey scale TIFs)

Apparently these documents have been xeroxed a couple of times, so it's no top quality.
In order to keep file sizes reasonable, I have set the scan resolution just high enough to still 
show everything that is readable in the paper documents (I know that e.g. the pin numbers in the 
schematics are a bit fuzzy, but increasing the resolution doesn't help here).
If there _is_ something not readable due to the resolution, feel free to ask for a better scan.

tot ziens
Chris
