I really want to buy a bunch of their stuff because it's quite literally the only way I'll ever be able to own most of those particular pieces but Uli (and frankly a lot of Behringer's fans, esp the ones who think they're sticking it to Moog for doing unacceptable poo poo like supporting trans artists by telling people to buy CRAVEs or whatever) makes it really difficult to do that without feeling like a poo poo sometimes.

First targeting critics on a forum, then antisemitic tropes towards a journalist, Behringer has become the first fully fascist synth company! Might be the only original thing they have ever done.

Also LOL that Uli is so loving thin-skinned that he's basically attacking a gear reviewer for being... critical? I've read CDM for a long time and if anything, Kirn seems to be one of very few veteran reviewers that's willing to actually say "Synth x is good but not all it's cracked up to be" which, if anything, is an absolute breath of fresh air in a climate of Youtube gear reviewers who have almost nothing but effusive praise for whatever they get handed. I'm sure it's got more to do with Peter being broadly critical of how Behringer's business model hurts gear makers that are actually innovating and developing new ideas, but even that criticism was a lot more analytical than just saying "Behringer's poo poo, buy more Moog" or whatever. I wonder how badly Behringer is getting hurt by their supply chain getting gutted by coronavirus or whatever. It wouldn't be the first time Uli's intentionally drummed up controversy for sales.

LOVE LOVE SKELETON posted:I think they meant in the context of that entire parenthetical, and I'd like some background as well. Lol, I was half-joking. Ok, so lots of people like to hate on Moog/KORG/etc and cheerlead Behringer because Behringer’s clones make old expensive synths accessible to people who otherwise could never ever get them, and there’s a perception that some of these other companies like to trade on the cachet of their brand or their beloved old products in order to unfairly gouge customers. Reasonable enough, whether you agree with that sentiment or not. But there’s another contingent of people, who particularly hate Moog- partially because of their twee/quasi-lifestyle branding and promotion, partially because of feelings related to dollar value/product costs/speed of innovation/etc, but very emphatically because Moog is “an sjw company” that “deserves to go bankrupt and die”. Rightabouts when Moog was releasing the M32, when the election was happening, and #MeToo, and gamergate, and there was a lot of dialogue about women and lgbtq people in the music business, Moog made a public statement saying that they wanted to feature more women and queer/non-binary folks in their promotional materials and artist features/collaborations going forward. Sure enough, when M32 launched the bulk of official performance demos and teasers were done by women. And dudes on gearslutz and in the sonicstate comments sections flipped. a. poo poo. These melodic arpeggiated robot farts with no discernible beginning or end are bad! Maybe if Moog weren’t such SJWs they’d hire a competent synthesizer player to make robot farts that would doubtlessly be superior! Never gonna buy another Moog product ever! And when the Behringer D came out, a bunch of them decided to sing its praises and encourage people to buy it simply because it was a Model D clone. A small contingent has hung around ever since. Sometimes if you recommend a Moog product to somebody online or bring up Behringer clones in And while I’m sure Uli doesn’t have any personal animus toward lgbtq people or toward Moog’s inclusivity goals he was perfectly happy to soak up all the adulation from those guys and participate in their threads and answer their comments when the D came out.

Other than that, I'm not sure what else there is to say.

So with Korg hiring for their new R&D facility in Berlin I think I'm going to try and land a job interview. To that end, I went out and bought a NTS-1. What killer oscillator should I write for it, to show them why I should be their next inventor guy?

Huh. I'm not particularly looking to buy a hardware synth (animoog is good enough for me), but if I do it'll basically be a moog now on the strength of their software synth and not-being-jerks

I'm using a qy300 with an akai s2000 so kinda similar. I'd prefer a desktop format sampler though! Went to a bunch of outstanding synth shops in Tokyo, might post some pics when I get home. Saw multiple piles of 808s/909s just stacked up in corners lol. If you get the chance go to Five G in Shibuya, pretty much the whole shop is set up for you to play with. Really enjoyed getting to try out stuff I've only read about or watched on YouTube, all the classic roland stuff etc. Shout outs to the old yamaha cs-5 and moog source which were way cooler and more great sounding than I expected. field balm fucked around with this message at 02:45 on Mar 3, 2020 |

I’m sorry, I’m sure it’s a lovely synthesizer but the Boutique form factor sucks so bad. I’d trade in my tr08 and 09 in a heartbeat if they weren’t kawaii, and somehow kinda better looking as objets d’art than the behringer analog clones. At some point I’ll probably wind up with the clones too. Analog and full size, what’re ya gonna do?

Just downsized cause I moved into a smaller place. I have a tb 03 that I forgot to mention that I have a lot of patterns programmed into. Might try to drive it from the QY. I have the Yamaha P515 piano now so I don’t think I need more keyboards, was just exploring modules mostly

So this leaked. Polyend Tracker. https://www.synthanatomy.com/2020/03/polyend-tracker-audio-workstation-with-sampler-syntheszer-fm.html  If you're into trackers this looks like a pretty cool device. I have a friend who has been doing trackers and renoise since the 80s - curious to see his thoughts on it.

Been really wanting to move to some kind of hardware based setup but its daunting to know whether or not the sequencer I blow a bunch of money on will work for me.
