Behringer is at it again

It was the future once. The PPG was up there with the Emulator and Fairlight as unreachably expensive icons of 80s synth music. Not sure the sound is as startling now as it once was though, or maybe it’s just me getting jaded… Plus, being Behringer, I might have died before it actually comes out. The only ‘icon clone’ of theirs I actually want is the VCS3, (oh, ok, and the CR78) and there’s still no sign of either of them...

    actually, sounds pretty damn good. please have poly aftertouch! would make an excellent controller.

  • Danny_MammyDanny_Mammy

    mmm, doesn't look like it has poly aftertouch. shame especially since they have poly aftertouch on the OBX. these companies always miss a beat.

  • Danny_MammyDanny_Mammy

    is it 599 euro?????? fricken hell that's good if true! will be their best seller if no hardware issues.

  • cyberheatercyberheater

    Killer synth at a killer price.

    Behringer has resolved the robustness.

    I’ve heard lots of folks who really like their Hydrasynth.

  • cyberheatercyberheater

    And on a personal note. I’m very glad these things have launched because I’m one step closer to Behringer releasing the VCS3.
    That bad boy is going to be a day one purchase for me.

    @knewspeak : for me the difference between mono and poly synths is how many notes I can get wrong at a time. Monosynths just reduce the risk factor, as far as I’m concerned. I always assume polys are designed for those people, what do you call them? Ah, yes - musicians.

    I’m with you, @cyberheater : If they actually release a full on VCS3 (and not that silly little mini-synth clone they showed a while back), then it’ll be a Day One purchase for me too, and all my Radiophonic fantasies come true… :)

    that not entirely true with Behringer, literally their most recent synth had hardware faults.

    first run of Model 15 had issues

    I’m looking to buy one of these, I think it was fixed with a firmware update but does anyone know for sure?

    Nothing wrong with build quality on B gear nowadays. And price really says nothing about this. The pots on my OB-6 feel awfully cheap and wobbly for example. Quite often i‘m afraid i could break something. The Sub osc knob already started to act funky even if i treat the synth like a raw egg.

    In the last years i had an armada of system 100 modules, the 2600, pro one, DM6, RD8, couple of interfaces and still have mono/poly and the xr18 mixer. It was/is all good. Not worse than other companies (even better). I‘m not a behringer fan (their policy / mindset) but also not against owning some stuff. Screwing something up can happen to any company.

    I'm not particularly knocking Behringer but they do still have quality issues.

    from personal experience, an audio device i had was broken, two td3-mo's I had to replace. the original RD8 was broken, Behringer crave i had tuning was unusable and really noisy etc...

    so, I'm loving the new gear they make but there are risks, both from my personal experience and from what i read.

    with regards to the model 15 - there was an issue affecting the S&H function on some Model 15 units.

    the old joke is wait for the MKII

    Luckily, last week I've re-discovered a bunch of PPG Wave 2 sounds on my blofeld.
    But even that one isn't free of hardware defects, its encoders will need some love again soon...

    Fair enough. I would never say Behringer is always flawless. Well, i just preordered. Spoke to a betatester and all good it seems. The new videos are in“enhanced“ mode it seems, much cleaner. But it has a global“original“ setting which brings all the beautiful dirt and 8bit crunch from the original.

    The price is crazy. It even has single output for each voice. And even the lovely cherrytype plastic buttons and not some cheap (feeling) rubberbuttons
