Which iconic synth would you like to see reimagined by Behringer? Sound off in the comments, and don’t forget to swing by Sweetwater for a closer look at the Behringer Solina 👉 sweetwater.sjv.io/Behringer_Solina_Analog_Synthesizer
I used to have an ARP Quartet (a Solina in disguise) back around 30 years ago, but since sold it. I’ll be getting one of these. I like the compact size of the Behringer and new features.
I plugged my new Solina into an old Zoom MS-50G multieffects pedal. So many good sounds to choose from! Some of the Zoom's effects that I struggled to appreciate when I strummed my guitar, like "Slicer" and "fCycle", now make sense.
Yep, definitely a one-trick pony but it can have so many different moods depending on context! Put it in a Pink Floyd song and it's cold and eerie, put it in a bouncy pop song like Bowie "Sound and Vision" and sounds like Christmas!
Got it, love it! I mostly use just "violin" sound with no reverb for that cold retro-future dystopian vibe, or add some "viola" and stereo reverb for massive lush string atmospheres. Definitely going to try running everything else I have through the modulation!
Back in the 70s and 80s/90s I was obsessed with 3 sounds... the Rhodes, the ProSoloist and the Solina... I was (and still am) into my jazz funk so those sounds were so prevalent... I still use my Rhodes and ProSoloist but I think I would struggle to use a Solina nowadays as there are other options.... still... it is pure nostalgia to hear it... it certainly does carry a certain "melancholic/depressive" vibe which I hear in Klaus Schulze/Pink Floyd records....
Well that's definitely the Dogs sound! Barked right out at me. ;). And that Small Stone...so damn creamy. For $300, it's a no-brainer. I wrote 2 songs just listening to this demo lol
ready for behr to do the synthy A clone already! its been 3 years or more since announced. this solina sounds good too! major berlin school tones on some patches.
Wonder if t here's a way mod this for stereo output from the "modulation"? Yeah I know the original was mono, but I used to have a Streichfett and when you turn on the ensemble effect it opens up into gorgeous stereo, I do miss that. Adding stereo effects afterwards is not the same as having the three different elements of the modulation appear in different parts of the stereo field.
I own both and a Solina from 1976. The chorus of the Streichfett is not tuned correctly and modulates too much. As a result, the signals from the three delays do not merge properly and the creamy sound of the Solina cannot be created at all. This is less of a problem with choir sounds. You can disguise it with a lot of reverb, but unfortunately that also means the nice rasp of a string ensemble disappears. You can also notice with the VP-330/VC-340 that the chorus doesn't sound quite as full as with the Solina. Greetings from Germany!🇩🇪🤝
Seems weird that we need to revive keyboards for $$$$ when all the synths we have can create those sounds other ways. Tech has been stuck for so long.casios from 1980 are still as interesting.
Counterpoint: I’m a guitarist who got into synths while I was a starving college student. $50 was a MAJOR purchase for me at the time. I have about a billion software synths, yeah, but if wasn’t for Behringer’s reissuing of these classics I would have never even dreamed of getting them. Budget synths elsewhere are simply too prohibitively priced. These reissues are a way for someone without the money or means to have the “real” synths that their heroes had. I know own multiple of these Behringers, and I’m definitely planning on investing into more sophisticated and modern synths, but for now I spend most of my time with my Crave and NI Massive.

I'm not from the US but allways enjoy your videos, your presentation is allways excellent and professional.
Love the Pink Floyd reference- a very good use of the Solina sound!

Daniel Fisher videos are the best

Used mine on a session (on tape) last week. Was the perfect sound. The solinas were always one-trick ponies, but when it works, whew, what a trick!

New Daniel Fisher video out means it’s a good day! That synth sounds just perfect!
all sweetwater videos should include the floating string singing head from now on
I've always loved strings through a phaser. For this feature alone, for me, it's worth it.
@Sweetwater-k8o Good. Mail it to me. You already have my address.
I'm gonna weave a dream with this.
Daniel looking good in this video. Sounds great.
Welp! You’ve sold me Dan!
For the third time I might add.
Another incredible demo from Dan, the Man!
Keep up the great work, man! You’re awesome!

You nail it the sound is beautiful melancholic/depressive 70’s ❤
Due in part to this vid, I ordered mine from Sweetwater 2 days ago: Ya got me!

Love your videos Daniel, so creative and informative!
Jean Michel Jarre in a box. Yes please.
amazing unit!
Pink Floyd ❤❤❤
Great overview and now I must
I've just closed my eyes again...
After listening to this I will have a glass of Moloko Plus 🥛
Love it
In the days of the Funkapuss...
That’s dope!!
That's a sexy chord progression at 7:34!
Tri-Tone Substitution, baby! -_Daniel_
Love the PF intro!
It would be really cool to hear any of the behringer synths with a eurorack
Ahh Man!...I got to get one! I here Bernie Worrell P-Funk and some Gary Wright etc.....
I want this so bad but prolly should learn how to play first!
It's time for psychedelic trance producers to add some new flavours with Solina String Ensemble.
Pink Floyd fan! I heared dogs and saucerfull of secrets
Makes complete sense when you find out that he plays keys in a Pink Floyd tribute band.
@@stoneyboyd aha yes makes sense
Preach it brother!
WOW 🤩
Instant Jean Michel Jarre.
You Animals!!

Ooh baby 👶 😍
Love the intro...

Early Duran Duran
Daww this is cute.
Oh I know I’m not hearing anything from the hudrasynth. I wish I could get it to sound that good 😵💫. Nah I love my Hydra. This sounds great too.
Daniel….you sly dog 🐕
an out take from pink floyd's animals?!
What Keyboard are you using? I would like to own one.
It’s a full synth, the ASM Hydrasynth Explorer
Dogs lol
SOLINA or ASM or NEMESIS?. I preferer The EMINENT!
Mr. Crowly...
that was a Roland RS505
@@connor_flanigan O.K.
Apparently this is not a clone of the clockwork orange synth. So why does every video I've seen showcasing it make me think of that movie?
😂
I know they are not the same thing, but How would you compare it to the Waldorf Streichfett?
No mames.
I own both and a Solina from 1976. The chorus of the Streichfett is not tuned correctly and modulates too much.

I can run an old Casio through a pedal if I want this sound
Nope.
@@markaprill6501 yep. Analog square wave models, of course.
No
@@SPAZZOID100 yes
Nope
Yeah I love mine, that I got from sweetwater.
Behringer please make the VC340 in the same rack format like the Solina without the vocoder 😊
