Yes, OB-X seems to have matched or at least selected CA3080 in the 
filter, they are marked with color dot. There are 3 CA3080 on each voice 
card with the same color dot. Can't remember which one is the 3rd, 
probably Q control.
Unlike glide CA3080s that didn't have any dot IIRC. And those ones were 
really far off from each other.
