    As a long-time Roland fan and collector, I initially scoffed at the Behringer clones, but at less than the cost of dinner and a movie, how can one go wrong? I grabbed the TB-3 and RD-6, copies of two machines I don't have and cannot afford, and was not disappointed. They really capture the spirit and sound of the original instruments. So much so that I also bought the more pricey VC-340 Vocoder. Haters can hate all they want, but Roland had ample opportunities to re-release their vintage instruments and chose to go another direction. (...expensive, crappy miniature digital copies) Behringer simply identified and filled a niche.

      Totally agree.
      Although I can understand Roland's position to some extent.
      They are a hight-tech company that have sunk a lot of resources in to research and development.
      They must believe that their modern digital technology is far superior to what they turned out four decades ago.
      It is a bit like asking a car manufacturer to re-release a 1982 model.
      Yes, there are factories in India and Brazil still turning out cars based on 1970's models for the domestic market, but that is not something WV and Rover wants to associate with.
      Question is, Could Roland have re-released their classic instruments, fully analog, at a competitive price and meet their own quality standards?
      And would that even be a smart business strategy for them as a company?
      I own a few behringers. They are great, being what they are: quite archaic retro-instruments. I also own a tr-8 and a tb-3, both of wich I find really well-made, well thought out products.

    I'm pretty convinced that if the Boog was made by Moog and had $1000 added to the price people would be all over themselves about how amazing the device is. But because it has Behringer's name on it, "it sounds stiff", or "they didn't quite nail it" when you can't even match two real Model D's to sound like each other due to age, tuning, how long the device has been on etc.The Boog sounds great and is affordable to for pretty much everyone in actual hardware form instead of some VST. Can't everyone just be happy about that?

      @Madrrrrrrrrrrr Год назад +1

      Moog already has synths that do most of these sounds and lower in price but a cheap 100% clone would destroy their own minimoog market. Anyway most synth buyers prefer cheapness over sound every day. That's why this show is called bad gear. Also the fact 2 old mini's don't sound the same doesn't prove anything. Yes that analog is unstable but that doesn't say anything about comparing boog to a real mini. You really have to listen to a real one to be able to compare them. And the internet is full of dumb synth owners who compare apples with oranges without ever having played the real deal. On osc level comparing the sound maybe samish but that vanishes once you search for their edges. All behringer synths have a behringer sound. Even the boog.

      Yep. An original Moog is like a piece of furniture. A boutique made device and "looks the part".

    After years of playing with presets on VSTs, the Model-D was one of the first hardware synths I purchased.

    @tomaszmazurek64 Год назад +13

    I use a Poly D, which adds a few simple, yet surprisingly effective extensions to the Model D's architecture and it is the one synth that I have almost always plugged in and ready for playing. Also, my few months old toddler absolutely loves it for some reason. If I may offer a few tips. There is a PWM of sorts - the 3rd oscillator offers an inverted sawtooth wave, which is primarily for LFO duties, but if you layer it with a saw in the second oscillator, you get a PWM-like with detune controlling the rate. It's not perfect, because it changes rate with pitch, but it's there. Another, more obvious, so maybe you've used it, trick with the 3rd oscillator is setting it as the modulator and leaving oscillator control on, which gets you FM and AM sounds controllable from your modwheel.
    BTW. as a slightly educated electronic I'll pedantically add, that the Moog filter implements voltage control using the, normally unwanted, effect of virtual resistance on the emitter electrode of a bipolar transistor. I haven't checked, but I suspect that trick may be used in few other places in this synth. This is very smart, but wrong as far as traditional rules of circuit design go, since that parameter is dependent on transistor's beta. Which despite being the supposedly most important parameter of a transistor, is a wildly unreliable parameter, that can differ by a factor of a 100 between two transistors of the exact same model and changes significantly with the temperature of the transistor. You can partially reign in that instability if you are building the circuit as an IC, but that type of circuit built out of discrete elements will inevitably be unstable to some degree. So when you say it's a bit unstable, like the original - yes, that's the nature of that beast :D

    I've played MiniMoogs since I bought my first one in '74. The Behringer Model D is not identical to the original, but it costs $300 for heaven's sake! The cost and rackspace is a fraction of what you'd need to duplicate its functions with other modules. I put two of them in my Eurorack (right below two Behringer 960 Sequential Controllers) and I use the real Mini for solo work.

      Starsky Carr would beg to differ... He compared an original Moog to the Behringer... even used an Oscillascope. They're identical. The beautifully branded MOOG logo makes yuh feel nice... placebo is a hell of a drug. (if anything the Behringer is more stable because it's all new components... funny thing is, knowing that, you'll probably still use the MOOG for studio work, just so you can say it's a Minimoog on the record).

    This channel simply is art at its best :) Concept, moderation, memes and jokes, facts, demo tracks, brand-new-never-heard-before-multi-modern-music-genres... Awesome! I really enjoy EVERY episode, compliment! I have a suggestion for a bad-gear-device: The Roland D50... Used it several years, also live, but at a certain point, i was so sick about that device. Maybe you could use the D50 in the end of an episode in a high-tension-hybrid-oversized-frozen-arena-underground-trap-rave-dubtechno-house-gabber-core-synthtrack... :D Greetings from Mannheim!

    Hey Florian. I love your content. Always watching out for the next episode. I'm viewing them twice at least. Once to hear what you're saying. A second time to pause and read all of the memes. Looking forward to the Polybrute episode one day. Recently I watched a video by a RUclipsr who showed some buyer's remorse for getting the Polybrute. He was hoping to sell his old Prophet 6, but concluded the core sound of the P6 was better. I'd say he had unrealistic expectations anyway, because the P6 costs €/$1000 more than the Polybrute with less keys and far less features. Yesterday I bought a Prophet 5 and now I understand what he meant when he says the core sound of the Prophets is better. The Prophet 5 is even more expensive than the 6, has even less features and at its core sounds even better imo. I still prefer the Polybrute though. You get a lot more for your money. I like what complex sounds it can make. Arturia really excels in their software and firmware support and updates. They are really generous with free presets and loyalty discounts on their other products and such. You could also do an episode about the Prophet 600. That one doesn't have a great reputation for a Prophet. Behringer was supposed to make a clone of it (the pro-800), but it got delayed of course. Sorry for the long winded comment. I'm supposed to make music, but with all of my gear expectations are just so high I can't live up to them so I'm procrastinating. See you next year!
