@richardyot @jolico while not self contained, you can use Xequence and it will start at “any point” in AUM, and it can even be used to trigger audio files…now I’m not sure how it would work if you wanted to be in the middle of an audio file. ‘*puts pencil behind ear, goes back to desk
I’m just trying to visualize when this era began. I’m gonna say, late 70’s early 80’s?
These kids don’t know anything about all that. How about the deer in the headlights look you’d get when you ask them to play the second song on the tape.
Still have my mark iii Tascam 424 I got in 2000, and often record down onto it (42 y/o here). I have never done a single second of recording on a digital device until Ingot into iOS music making in the last few years. I remember recording music onto DAT at my friend’s house in 1999 on Cubasis for Mac but he did all the engineering! I’ve always been around it, but never learned any of it myself. Funnily enough AUM has always made the most sense to me over linear “timeline” recording.
I still have my SE-70 and it still sounds great.
I bought one of these things during my “confused era” (around 2000), when I guess I was thinking that I wanted to get away from the PC and become “Dawless”. Of course that catch phrase hadn’t been born yet, but we all knew what it was...
But yeah, talking about bouncing tracks and punching in & out... this thing made it all a huge nightmare (to me) I never liked using this thing at all. Anyone want it? I’d be willing to let it go cheap!
How could I forget, I also still have my Akai DPS-16 that cost me £1200 back in 2001 (twelve monthly payments of £100!), and now barely worth a tenth of that (damn SCSI!)
I still have mine too. I sold some stuff back in the day such as my 32 channel mixer but kept most of it.
Stuff I’m looking forward to using again one day includes:
Enaoniq EPS 16 Plus
Korg Z1
Korg Proohecy
Akai CD 3000
Casio CZ 3000
SE-70
Alesis 3630
TL Audio tube pre/compressor
Old school ART Multiverb LT FOR 80s reverb
303 clone rack thing
I also have a few ROMplers like a proteus and some Roland racks that were cheap as chips back in the day. And more stuff I can’t remember :-)
I’m sure there are some things that won’t work.
I’ve fired up the ensoniq and it works even though the SCSI and ROM expansions died. I added a floppy emulator as I lost all my old disks. So it’s like a new sampler with a new library to build. Slowly. The floppy emulator runs at floppy speeds and is sooooo slooooow! Fun though.
So yeah. Looking forward to using some of this pre DAW stuff again. I have a few new bits too like a Circuit ministration, behringer pro-1 and drumbrute impact.
I just need some of the pre-DAW disposable time I also had!
303 clone rack?
I have a Syntechno TeeBee mkIII with built-in midi merger and midi to CV/Gate converters.
The ring-mod died 2 years ago.
I used to have a Prophecy, but I swapped it for an SH-101. No regrets.

Not a bad swap… the prophecy is still pretty cool though.
I might put the behringer 101 clone on my Xmas list. :-)
🤮
Friends don’t let friends get behringers.
As I recall, those things had some cool built-in effects and drum sounds at least!
It did. I used it a couple times for a vocal effect box when we playing out. I guess it was useful for a couple things, but trying to use it for production purposes wasn’t happening.
In case anyone still wants a brand new Portastudio...

Idk, a friend recommended the Deepmind 12, so I bought one. Had it for about two years now and couldn’t be happier! (Well, I mean I could be happier, with maybe something like a Moog One, or even a Matriarch.) but the DM suits me fine for what I use it for.
My oldest recording device is an Luxor Magnefon from 1951 - and you record on magnetic wires that is up to 2000 meters long (30 minutes)...
The wire is 0,1mm thick, but the sound is incredible! I have 45 different rolls with recordings from early 1951 to 1961...
Great stuff! It also plays stonecakes (78rpm) and play radio...
It weighs 80kg and made in mahogny...

Did it come with a free fire extinguisher?
Sorry, but whenever anyone says anything good about behringer, I can’t believe that they’re serious.
It’s like the villains have won and it’s ok to support them now.
Nope, but it did come with a 3 year manufacturer’s warranty.
I wouldn’t do brand loyalty unless a company was endorsing me and sending me products. Until then, I buy what I like, what I can afford, and what I believe will work for what I want to do. I don’t know about their other stuff, but they sure got a lot right with the Deepmind! Like I said I’ve had it two years, no issues, and it’s still amazing every time I use it.
You can believe me (I’m serious!), you don’t have to be a Behringer fanboy to purchase and/or enjoy one of their products. It’s ok, I won’t tell anyone.
Wow, would you look at that,
$725!!!
Wow... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/333881344254
Thin ice... even if the box is sealed, the rubber parts of the drive mechanic do age
The problem is well known from nos vinyl player cartridges.
And electrolytic capacitors may disintegrate if not connected to power over extended periods of time.
That‘s why vintage guitar amps with unknown history are powered up by fractions of the regular supply at first use to make them „build up“ again.
Their stuff is actually pretty good considering the price. I have a Crave and a Neutron, and am happy with both.
You would leave it unopened wouldn't you? 'cos you know once the box was opened the depreciation would be huge. It would just sit in the corner of the room mocking me until I would have to put it in a cupboard somewhere for another 18 years or just resell on eBay --- Now, that's a nice idea.
My first multi tracking experience came with my first girlfriend back in the mid-70s. I was about 16; she was 14. She had figured out how to hook up her father’s two cassette players together and bounce tracks from one to the other. She would sing and play guitar until she had a track. Cool chick.
Honestly I don’t get the hate. They’re not my go to company for most things, but somethings they are.
Doesn’t really change anything. Big corporate guy is a dick. Nothing new here.
I’m not pro behringer, nor anti behringer.
I’m also not paying 600$ for a patch bay when his functions just fine for 50$
What about the other companies that use his stuff? Elektron is riddled with coolaudio analog SoC’s for example.
If the above video really grind your gears, hit me up when you see the DAW they are releasing lol.
AUMbase?
I have a surprising bit of Behringer gear and all of it ALL of it is working, doesn't catch on fire, hasn't broken or any of that other hyperbole. Now, granted, the company has developed alot and is making stuff better than they used to. It's a company that employs people and those people eat and they pay taxes, etc.
I do feel a bit different about this than I used to but even I can change. I still want a Moog Matriarch and a Waldorf Quantum but neither of those are bloody likely.
