  • Опубликовано: 3 апр 2019
  • Last year I was testing the Behringer Pro-1 / Pro One prototype and decided to (with permission of course) film some of the process and make a demo of the synth / sound elements and make some melodic sounds to sit the thing in context as well. This is a prototype, some things may change, they may have already changed, but sonically I understand this is finished (or very close to). So here it is, a demo with the prototype Pro-1. Comment away.

    We had one of the originals when I played synthpop in the 80's. Then the owner decided he was a rocker and sold it. I was so miffed I couldn't afford to buy it off him. Maybe I'll get one of these, because I miss that old Pro One.

    That’s the best demo of this synth I’ve found. Really comprehensive, no nonsense overview. Really made me think of routing options I’d previously not considered on my other synths. I’m waiting on delivery of my pro-1 and after seeing this man I can’t wait!

      @UnderBridge Rock Only time will tell. I loved the Pro6 and OB6 when I got a chance to play them but I simply can't afford them and that's where Behringer come in. Their products sound good, they really do... I have used both the Model D and the Neutron and they sound fantastic, especially given the price. Their gear doesn't have to be 100% exact...in fact no two analogue synth are...but if it's close...that'll do for me.
