I’d love to have any working original or reissue or clone 2600, at a price I can afford. Best synth I’ve ever spent time with, absolutely amazing. If they were to be available for enough under a $1000 I’d buy at least 2 of them, I have a wall of synths and none of them can do what single 2600 so please for the love of humanity please unleash the Behringer 2600+ 2020 sucks, this would make isolation joyful
@Bootsandcats duders drum machines are cool and , han=ve some cool units, but for real , if you don't have on there are a bunch of awesome ones out there and most are greatish. NOTHING ELSE BEHRINGER is working on matters on the same Level as an affordable ARP 2600, played on one for several months years ago and realllllllly nothing else before or after compares at all in any way at all nothing else has ever ever been close....the EMS Synthi is its own other next level machine
When all these Behringer clones started appearing I wanted them but found the idea of a primarily Behringer setup slightly embarrassing for some reason. But they’re so good that I’m actually proud to name drop and recommend and display them. The Behringer name sits confidently with all my Roland and Korg and Sequential gear. Thank you Uli for giving us peasants access to the master tools.
My Crave sits on the top tier, just above my Subharmonicon and DFAM. My Bodyssey towers above my Minilogue XD and the stand is crowned by the DM12 and VC340........ Bottom line is they are making superb sounding instruments and I don't know of any other instrument company that have come under such negative, vituperative, and nasty scrutiny as Behringer. Affordable Synths For The People!!!!
Super awesome, finally the 2600 can be affordable for the masses, Behringer is making people's dream a reality. Now bring the Linndrum and I will be very grateful.
Why do you want them to remake an effin sampler which has been replaced by virtually any other sampler drum machine for the last 30 years. Name 1 thing LM1 could do that others can't and is worth replicating? The shoddy looks maybe?
You folks have resurrected my synth love. I finally layed hands on a Behringer synth for the first time this week and it was really something special. I’d been pursuing other hobbies in recent years and hadn’t seen much to demand my attention until you guys got in the game. Behringer has really breathed new life into the affordable synthesizer market.
They've done really well, great gear and great prices but this is largely a myth. Are you saying you couldn't afford Korg Volcas or Arturia Mini & Drumbrutes or the IK synth & drum machine or the KORG Mini & Monologue? Deepminds are cheap yes, but so are Minilogue and Prologue. Dreadbox Erebus and Novation Bass Station are also cheap. I own 4 of their synths and a drum machine but if they never existed the only thing I'd really be missing is the authentic Moog bass sound as no way would I pay £3500 for a Minimoog re-issue.
PaulGBass Not saying that they are the only company doing good work, but I personally wasn’t that excited or interested in those other products. At least not enough to need to add them to my arsenal. Seeing and now playing some of the new Behringer gear has rekindled my interest and it is exciting to feel a connection to synth history for such a reasonable price. Original 2600’s, Minimoogs, Octave Cats, Sequential Pro Ones were always out of reach. I’ve still got my own old synth collection. Now I’m playing them again and trying to decide what to add to the arsenal again and it is totally Behringer’s fault. I’m grateful
@@PaulGBass a volca, a dreadbox, all these machines are not a Model D, a Pro One, a Wasp, not speaking about a 2600 or the System 100m or Moog Modular 55, 35 and 15... I can understand that Behringer changed the perception of synths for a lot of people. I love the dreadbox, the minilogue is really a cool machine, but if you're not in the loop, these machines don't make your heart beating like all Behringer repros. Behringer reissues bring back memories, feelings that can't be touched by a volca or a prologue, and that can change, no, that is clearly changing the way their instruments and synths in general are perceived by many people. Not everybody is living with synths for decades, some people were out of the game for a long time. And you must accept this situation, as well as nor Korg or Roland have bring back these people to the synths world. Berhinger did it.
This is a real piece of art. It surely makes some really sweet sounds in just this short video. Fantastic work again from the Behringer-Family. I am so glad that you make great sounding gear available not only to the rich and famous.

@@GuyGamer1 I would deffinatly tell the difference straight away...as would every other who's used an original. The much thinner tonal difference for a start and the filters sound and act nothing like the original. This sounds like anyother analogue copy...it was the same with there Odyssey copy, infact this sounds the same as that there's no difference. And that's where it falls very short, both of the Behringer copies sound to clean, the signal in the original where far from that, they where gnarly. The filters where also gnarly, not clean crisp sweeps like these. The tone was massive, not weak. I can hear the difference between this and Korgs for example...Korg has pretty much nailed it, although even the Korgs filters are still slightly to nice compared to the original...but not much...but then you can't replicate the original filters 100% because the circuitry is not 100% excact. But yeah I tip my hat to Korg, I didn't think it would be possible for them to replicate the ARP 2600, not a chance, but they pretty much have. Behringer....well...sounds like they took there Odyssey attempt and placed it inside a different housing, sonically and tonaly there is no difference...both are way too thin sonically and tonaly to be considered replicas of the originals.
Can not WAIT for this one. Love the time-factor switch on the envelopes. Opinions will vary of course, but I personally love that Behringer's not afraid to stray from a perfect imitation of the original with some really great additions. Of course if I could afford Korg's recent 'perfect imitation' I'd buy it in a minute. This looks gorgeous though, and obviously sounds amazing.

intheblink it’s epic. Shame it’s not an old school spring reverb though... don’t think the digital one is too convincing. Maybe Behringer can make a 1U rack spring reverb as this looks like 9U so room for one in a standard 10U frame like the one shown 😉 hint hint @Behringer
Beast sound i am in love with this one .this is my number one synth in my wish list . great job behringer i think we all appreciate your will for us ,👏👏👏
Jeeez Uli .... you need to star as a cameo role in the next Bond movie (seriously) ... at an insane $599 rrp for this beast, you really ARE going to take over the World (!!!, na-haa-ha-ha-haaaaaaa [the villain's cackle]). My studio is going to look like a Behringer synth museum by the end of the year!!!!!! Thank-You. 🙃👍🎶🎹🍻
i dunno if its just the sound of this synth or the guy really knows what hes doing but it seems like he can do NO wrong when he adjusts paramaters. everything he does brings out good sounds from this thing. please GOD let this not be stupidly expensive i need one.
hey, I'm not into modulars/semi modulars, but this give really really really *good vibes* . Looks gorgeous and sounds amazing !!! Super well done @BEHRINGER !!!!! thumbs super up !!!!
Woohoo, this sounds better than I thought it would. I am in the waiting queue for the Korg reissue, whenever that will be available again, but now I think I will go with the Behringer 2600 instead. I am actually tempted to sell off some of my vintage gear and go Behringer all-in and get everything from the Odyssey, MS-1, Pro-1, Wasp, Cat, RD-8, K-2, TD-3, Model-D and to the DeepMind-12: all of these would actually cost me less than a single Korg ARP 2600.
I read somewhere the Korg wich are anyway limited are salready sold out preordered... My store here near had to preorder it in the list.. the only one.. But since 2 weeks not more.. But never had in available ... So I dont know this selling practics.. Bit shit.. So I will also go on the Behringer.. Have already Deep Mind 12.. Pro one.. Neutron.. and Model D.. More is up to come.. hehe
Wow! Uli has done an amazing job resurrecting so many of these classic analog synths at very affordable prices. The 2600 looks gorgeous. Can't wait until its available.
The 2600 was ignored studiously by the many electronic music lab students at LCC back around 1984. I spent many a fantastic hour using the 2600 waiting my turn at the DX7 assignment. The lab teacher never used it a single day if I remember correctly. Making patches and asking the piano playing synth nuts there to try to make a noise with it, or even music Was really funny !!! Great for FX , samples or even a drone or blip or two! My Uncle used the 2600 on star trek to great effect.... Douglas you rocked!
i think it would be smarter to market this as something “inspired by” the 2600. although is sounds cool, it doesn’t sound like a 2600. It sounds like it’s own thing.
And Behringer bought the rights to manufacture some of the Curtis synth chips, which no one else makes anymore. www.synthtopia.com/content/2020/07/08/behringer-clones-curtis-cem3396-analog-synth-on-a-chip/ -- also check out the ARP history video th-cam.com/video/l31RXiVSI9s/w-d-xo.html.
I keep wondering if they will actually make this 2600? They announced it over 6 months ago, and we have heard nothing since. It sure looks great in these videos, and sounds awesome!
Gary Turner I can’t wait for this..... people are already selling the korg 2600 reissue on reverb for like twice the purchase price...... that’s roughly £7K..... original models are going for around £12-15K......
Reading the captions made my day. Saw is "sore", LFO is "elephant" once. If someone couldn't hear, they'd be really confused. If they were buying synths, they'd be my type of people
@@maydaygoingdown5602 The 2600? It would be so awesome to own! But i'm talking about the *2500* eurorack modules they posted on facebook. They look nice so check them out. I think they're developed by the same guy helping to create the 2600 because he has a history of vintage clone eurorack gear.
Preordered mine 10/21 with delivery date 02/01 and to my surprise Thomann delivered it today sitting just left to my Behringer Odyssey. Sounds awesome. Lots of colorful lights now here. BTW the Keystep is a prefect match sizewise. I think, this is why Behringer will release the Swing. They asked us customers whether they should provide a keyboard for the B2600. Looking now for a good looking rack. THANKS BEHRINGER, GREAT JOB!
this synth sounds stupid good! Behringer has really outdone themselves with this synth. Each one just keeps getting better. I hope they do V.2 of all their earlier synths to get the up to the quality of this bad bad puppy!
@@maydaygoingdown5602 You base that on ... what? I bet they are almost identical under the covers. (FWIW, I like them both, and hope to get the Korg as well as this)
Yes! All envelopes should have different time settings. My new Blue Lantern envelope has that and it's amazing. Love that inclusion, good job Behringer. Knocked it out of the park on this one.
It's the newer design. "Blue Lantern Modular Simple Envelope 2.1" has gold mushrooms on it. Feature-rich and affordable. Definitely buying another one.
Brilliant, brave decision to make it 19" rack mount. Far more manageable than Korg's monster reboot. I don't usually go for dirty overdriven filters, but this sounds gorgeous. This synth can do no wrong it seems.
Wow. Best clone yet. I can't imagine how good the Ub-Xa will be considering how every clone they've done is better than the last! If this one is reasonable price it may become my go-to mono
Payt Laros oh, i did not know that this whole time. Crazy. Well then the digital reverb is prolly a bit of a let down then. I had no clue the original had reverb, makes so much sense tho looking back....
@@djJustJay Well the digital reverb seeks to replicate the characteristics of the original spring reverb. From what I can tell, it does a pretty good job. The advantage is that they can always change it in firmware updates. The disadvantage is that they'll probably never 100% replicate the real thing ;)
Payt Laros im buying one either way, but i def see some minor sonic differences. With that being said its damn damn close, kinda feel like im splitting hairs saying that. Either way very fine machine!
10 years or more ago I watched subliminal kid in "subliminal kid in studio" here on TH-cam on the Macbeth m5n (must watch!). I knew I needed that in my life, but since I did not have 40k, the wait for an affordable 2600 clone began. I looked at all DIY options, but those were still above my pay grade. This is pre-ordered-> I cannot wait!
I would love to own a Korg 2600, but Korg made a decision to leave money on the table by only making 500, so I'll be waiting for the Behringer 2600. It sounds great
That was so a lame move by them, there's no point in even wasting your time remaking it if you're only going to make a limited amount available. I need to see if the Behringer version sounds the same though tbh.
They are going to do a black and orange version run of 500 as well, in due time. Still.....I will be smart and get the Behringer, it is 99% of the way there for a fraction of the cost.
Ohohoh...I cant wait for this one. When you are mentioning users of the original ARP 2600 I would not forget the master himself Klaus Schulze. I will have one of this!! It sounds....
Awesome! The next thing we need is an analog sequencer. And a delay module inside the 2600 would be pretty nice too (I'd rather have delay than reverb)
wow... wow. this is what dreams are made of. i cant believe i'm going to own a 2600. edit- please look into that reverb some more. 2600 through its own spring tank is a big part of the magic. need to get it right.
@@SorchaSublime Yes it is a cool drone machine. If you have already a modular, the doepfer spring reverb is a cheap addition, and the tank being external you can also play with your finger or any object to produce strange noises :-)
@@SorchaSublime I think too that it is a good decision, it's cheap and small, easy to fit into the box that is not a monster like the original one. It should have been a shame not to have the famous spring reverb with its two sliders, so they were right to reproduce it. But it's wise to use a digital reverb in this context and for the price that should be very low compare to the Korg reissue... In all cases you can cut the internal reverb and use the dry signal. So it will be up to the user to manipulate the dry output with a guitar pedal, a true spring reverb from a modular system, or any vst in a DAW.
@@KNHSynths but thats more stuff to buy. just get the one thats in the synth right. doesnt need to be a real spring tank, just make sure the digital emulation is good enough.
@@JessyTeddles If you have a real spring reverb there is something in the sound that is very special I never heard even in the best emulations. And this is part of the sound of this machine. So the internal digital reverb is certainly cool and seems to sound good, but it is far from the sound of a real spring reverb. So it can be interesting to have one to make the synth shinning. I've got a quite big modular with multiple fx modules and a doepfer spring reverb, so I'll have nothing to buy, I already got it :-) But for people who want to be the closest possible to the sound of the 2600 this is an important addition I think.
Listen...listen Behringer. I know people are beggin for yall to release the 909. I know people have been beggin for more updates on your UB-Xa. Beggin for a CS-80 clone...but fuck all of them. The 2600 is all that matters. I know you hear me Behringer. THE 2600 IS THE KEY.
Just got mine in about a week back. Can't stop messing with it. Biggest time sponge I've had in my life since Red Dead Redemption II. Freakin love that thing.
Sounds amazing !! (But I'm running out of 'Uli' tokens now with all the gear you're releasing at the mo'...!!). Patrick - where can I get the wooden end cheeks of the RD-8, as you have on show there?? 😎🎹👍🏼🍻
Amazing! Thanks Behringer for bringing amazing synth recreations to the masses at an affordable price! I own the Deepmind 12 and am looking forward to adding the behringer pro 1, 808, 909 and now the 2600 to my arsenal. Cheers!
I don't need another monosynth and I don't have room for this. Can't wait to get mine!
Same here. Just got a Prophet Rev 2. It's been a while before that even, since I bought a new synth, but I'm all about this. I don't even have any of the other Behringer synths yet.
My sentiments exactly.
Well if it’s anywhere near as good as the odyssey it will be a winner
haha my sentiments exactly.. trying to figure out where this and the mono/poly are gonna go.
100% absolutely no justification for another mono .... but yes, this is mandatory 🙏

I can't get over the tune starting at 12:00. It's so straight forward yet complex. I love it, can't wait to own this synth
The sound around 12:45 is really pretty magical. Really nice job with the demo!
absolutely mate
intheblink it’s epic. Shame it’s not an old school spring reverb though... don’t think the digital one is too convincing. Maybe Behringer can make a 1U rack spring reverb as this looks like 9U so room for one in a standard 10U frame like the one shown 😉 hint hint @Behringer

i listen to it every now and then. i am addicted to this sound.
Beast sound i am in love with this one .this is my number one synth in my wish list . great job behringer i think we all appreciate your will for us ,👏👏👏
Oh my god! The variety of tones that come out of it are so amazing ❤️🔥! Great demo by a person who got great synth knowledge.
Sold ! Thank you Patrick for such a wonderful presentation ! The sounds you generated made my day. X🤘🏻X
You guys are awesome!! Thanks for this amazing release.
"Wow" ! Happy times for the knobs and sliders among us ;)
Jeeez Uli .... you need to star as a cameo role in the next Bond movie (seriously) ... at an insane $599 rrp for this beast, you really ARE going to take over the World (!!!, na-haa-ha-ha-haaaaaaa [the villain's cackle]).

i dunno if its just the sound of this synth or the guy really knows what hes doing but it seems like he can do NO wrong when he adjusts paramaters. everything he does brings out good sounds from this thing. please GOD let this not be stupidly expensive i need one.
it will be $599 USD

Let it not fail rapidly like my old roland jx305 did! That sucker was trash at 5 years old in my room! Sounded great tho...

Totally reminds me why my life is synthesis.

So hawt.
Nice demo of what would appear to become a great machine! Thanks for keeping up the good work!
Awesome, I just know I’m going to buy one of these. The odyssey is awesome too, fantastic sound quality.

Super well done @BEHRINGER !!!!! thumbs super up !!!!
Just get a Behringer MS-1 to plug into the 2600! :)
Can't believe Behringer actually went for the 2600. You gonna give us an EMS synthi next? Amazing.
it supposedly is in the works..
@@endorphinsmusic oh my fucking god
obxa next
Nice work on the demo. I can see me getting lost for months with this wonderful thing. Yumeeeee...
Behringer has really upped their game. I suspect an infusion of young fresh brains have decided to remake the brand. And they are doing it!!!
Woohoo, this sounds better than I thought it would. I am in the waiting queue for the Korg reissue, whenever that will be available again, but now I think I will go with the Behringer 2600 instead. I am actually tempted to sell off some of my vintage gear and go Behringer all-in and get everything from the Odyssey, MS-1, Pro-1, Wasp, Cat, RD-8, K-2, TD-3, Model-D and to the DeepMind-12: all of these would actually cost me less than a single Korg ARP 2600.
I read somewhere the Korg wich are anyway limited are salready sold out preordered...
My store here near had to preorder it in the list.. the only one..
But since 2 weeks not more..
But never had in available ...
So I dont know this selling practics..
Bit shit..
So I will also go on the Behringer..
Have already Deep Mind 12.. Pro one.. Neutron.. and Model D..
More is up to come.. hehe
Exactly what is the price? Peace Christo 👽🐕🛸☮️🎶
@@christoroppolo8742 From the Korg ? Switzerland was listet 4800 Fr... thats also 4800 dollar..
progwaver no from behringer! Peace Christo
Christo Roppolo The price is not yet set, so we don't know. But it will be vastly cheaper than the Korg version, that is for sure.
Sounds wonderful. Wanted one ever since I read the back sleeve of JMJs Equinoxe album. Release already!
I have always loved Jean-Michel Jarre’s music, since I discovered Equinoxe when I was in high school!
Wow! Uli has done an amazing job resurrecting so many of these classic analog synths at very affordable prices. The 2600 looks gorgeous. Can't wait until its available.
Guys, admit it. We are synth addicts and Behringer is our dealer. 😁
The 2600 was ignored studiously by the many electronic music lab students at LCC back around 1984.
I spent many a fantastic hour using the 2600 waiting my turn at the DX7 assignment. The lab teacher never used it a single day if I remember correctly.
Making patches and asking the piano playing synth nuts there to try to make a noise with it, or even music Was really funny !!!
Great for FX , samples or even a drone or blip or two! My Uncle used the 2600 on star trek to great effect.... Douglas you rocked!
I saw a documentary where it said the R2-D2 sounds came from it too.
Seeing the glowing slider lights at 14:37 make me feel like this is the Christmas Tree of my dreams
I wasn't really looking forward to this before but now that I see it can be rack-mounted and sounds this good, I'm coming around.
i think it would be smarter to market this as something “inspired by” the 2600. although is sounds cool, it doesn’t sound like a 2600.
It sounds like it’s own thing.
2 weeks since the last video. I almost thought Behringer got shut down.
Janeba Like some illegal pot dispensary haha
it's almost as if it did though, with the coronavirus in China .
@Justin Jehoshaphat All these synth designs have no patent left for decades so anyone can reproduce them. Nobody tried.
And Behringer bought the rights to manufacture some of the Curtis synth chips, which no one else makes anymore. www.synthtopia.com/content/2020/07/08/behringer-clones-curtis-cem3396-analog-synth-on-a-chip/ -- also check out the ARP history video th-cam.com/video/l31RXiVSI9s/w-d-xo.html.
WHEN IS THIS COMING OUT JUST TAKE MY STIMULUS CHECK PLEASE
I keep wondering if they will actually make this 2600? They announced it over 6 months ago, and we have heard nothing since. It sure looks great in these videos, and sounds awesome!
I am also wondering if Behringer is waiting to release the 2600 until AFTER Korg ships all of the Korg ARP 2600 synths.
Gary Turner
I can’t wait for this..... people are already selling the korg 2600 reissue on reverb for like twice the purchase price...... that’s roughly £7K..... original models are going for around £12-15K......
@@garyturner5204 When more stimulus checks go out. They will make sure to grab all of them.
Reading the captions made my day. Saw is "sore", LFO is "elephant" once. If someone couldn't hear, they'd be really confused. If they were buying synths, they'd be my type of people
I cannot wait for the Behringer 2500 modules! They look so awesome and have a truly vintage science equipment aesthetic. I hope those are nearly done.
Me too, I want 2 of these modules wall mounted side by side to use in a midi configuration hooked up to my Behringer Oddysey.
@@maydaygoingdown5602 The 2600? It would be so awesome to own! But i'm talking about the *2500* eurorack modules they posted on facebook. They look nice so check them out. I think they're developed by the same guy helping to create the 2600 because he has a history of vintage clone eurorack gear.
Great presentation! Rob Keeble and Behringer has done a magnificent job from what it sounds like!
Geezus Christo! you guys nailed this!!!
Please release another video because I keep watching the same ones again and again out of excitement!
This demo is the first time I’ve been wowed by the 2600. Very well done - something else that I want but can’t afford and isn’t even available yet 😂
Preordered mine 10/21 with delivery date 02/01 and to my surprise Thomann delivered it today sitting just left to my Behringer Odyssey. Sounds awesome. Lots of colorful lights now here. BTW the Keystep is a prefect match sizewise. I think, this is why Behringer will release the Swing. They asked us customers whether they should provide a keyboard for the B2600. Looking now for a good looking rack. THANKS BEHRINGER, GREAT JOB!
Thank you for the “modern” ARP2600!
Great work on the demos, it already sounds majestic (at leats if listened thru appropriate speakers)
Behringer is killing it lately! I hope they remain conscious with their pricing, while keeping up the quality. 🙌
But still nothing showing up for sale.
@@brendahylton1034 Plenty over here in Europe bro. sorry for you yanks :)
Thank you for adding the timestamps in the description.
Barely anyone does that anymore but its soo handy.
Love the S&H on this, and sounds like there's a real opportunity to make that awesome Equinoxe bass by Jarre :-)
this synth sounds stupid good! Behringer has really outdone themselves with this synth. Each one just keeps getting better. I hope they do V.2 of all their earlier synths to get the up to the quality of this bad bad puppy!
I can’t wait for this to come out! This is like my 5th time watching this video. Haha
0:27 such a cool tune!
I’m gonna build a nice cabinet with it’s own keyboard for this beauty
Or even its own keyboard.
Sounds phat af. Kudos to the loopop style coverage & camera angles.
Sounds absolutely fantastic.
Yet absolutely nothing like the original.
Korg however absolutely nailed it.
@@maydaygoingdown5602 You base that on ... what? I bet they are almost identical under the covers. (FWIW, I like them both, and hope to get the Korg as well as this)
This turned out very well! Nice job Behringer!
$600!!! That is what I love about Behringer, they could have sold this for twice the price and sold them all. I can afford to get me and the dog one!
lucky dooggie! Does he have CV & Gate in/out? !!
Yes! All envelopes should have different time settings. My new Blue Lantern envelope has that and it's amazing. Love that inclusion, good job Behringer. Knocked it out of the park on this one.
John Doe which one?
Love blue lantern!
It's the newer design. "Blue Lantern Modular Simple Envelope 2.1" has gold mushrooms on it. Feature-rich and affordable. Definitely buying another one.
Brilliant, brave decision to make it 19" rack mount. Far more manageable than Korg's monster reboot. I don't usually go for dirty overdriven filters, but this sounds gorgeous. This synth can do no wrong it seems.
Wow. Best clone yet. I can't imagine how good the Ub-Xa will be considering how every clone they've done is better than the last! If this one is reasonable price it may become my go-to mono
This sounds absolutely nothing remotely like the original my mate.
Korg however have Nailed it.
More expensive but you get the real deal.
sounds like a beast.
Just heard TODAY that this is now going into production. Can hardly wait!!!
First order of business, making a lovely walnut case for this baby...when I get my hands on it.

This sounds superb. Really liking the digital reverb too. Gonna be difficult to avoid buying this beauty.

We'll need cheap stackcable to use all this gears
We Love You Behringer !!! Don't stop what you're doing.
That thing is insane
A Behringer 2600 with a Behringer CS-80 would be an affordable slice of Heaven indeed !
Wowawewa there's alot of famous people endorsing this clone by participating in the marketing. Very awesome to see them all aboard 👌
Behringer: awesome as usual!!! only there's nothin' usual in Behringer!! Uli always #1
good stuff! and an extra LFO as well as osc sync on top of the classic 2600 features :) I hope this thing will be affordable..
Payt Laros and reverb! 🔥
@@djJustJay Well to be fair the original has spring reverb too, so we can't count that as an extra feature.
Payt Laros oh, i did not know that this whole time. Crazy. Well then the digital reverb is prolly a bit of a let down then. I had no clue the original had reverb, makes so much sense tho looking back....
@@djJustJay Well the digital reverb seeks to replicate the characteristics of the original spring reverb. From what I can tell, it does a pretty good job. The advantage is that they can always change it in firmware updates. The disadvantage is that they'll probably never 100% replicate the real thing ;)
Payt Laros im buying one either way, but i def see some minor sonic differences. With that being said its damn damn close, kinda feel like im splitting hairs saying that. Either way very fine machine!
10 years or more ago I watched subliminal kid in "subliminal kid in studio" here on TH-cam on the Macbeth m5n (must watch!). I knew I needed that in my life, but since I did not have 40k, the wait for an affordable 2600 clone began. I looked at all DIY options, but those were still above my pay grade. This is pre-ordered-> I cannot wait!
I would love to own a Korg 2600, but Korg made a decision to leave money on the table by only making 500, so I'll be waiting for the Behringer 2600. It sounds great
That was so a lame move by them, there's no point in even wasting your time remaking it if you're only going to make a limited amount available. I need to see if the Behringer version sounds the same though tbh.
They are going to do a black and orange version run of 500 as well, in due time. Still.....I will be smart and get the Behringer, it is 99% of the way there for a fraction of the cost.
Korg also plan to do a smaller sized production version as well. We will see what that means, they have not elaborated on that at all.
@@fortheloveofnoise In any case, these reeditions will help the prices of the used market go down.
This is the first of ...I guess many (?)...Behringer synths that I'm getting. Holy shit!
Please make an ARP Quadra
Ohohoh...I cant wait for this one. When you are mentioning users of the original ARP 2600 I would not forget the master himself Klaus Schulze. I will have one of this!! It sounds....
Awesome! The next thing we need is an analog sequencer. And a delay module inside the 2600 would be pretty nice too (I'd rather have delay than reverb)
Sounds gorgeous! Now I'm happy I held off on the Poly D! :P
wow... wow. this is what dreams are made of. i cant believe i'm going to own a 2600. edit- please look into that reverb some more. 2600 through its own spring tank is a big part of the magic. need to get it right.
use a Doepfer spring reverb in a modular case and you're done. cheap and really old style sounding.
@@SorchaSublime Yes it is a cool drone machine. If you have already a modular, the doepfer spring reverb is a cheap addition, and the tank being external you can also play with your finger or any object to produce strange noises :-)
@@SorchaSublime I think too that it is a good decision, it's cheap and small, easy to fit into the box that is not a monster like the original one. It should have been a shame not to have the famous spring reverb with its two sliders, so they were right to reproduce it. But it's wise to use a digital reverb in this context and for the price that should be very low compare to the Korg reissue... In all cases you can cut the internal reverb and use the dry signal. So it will be up to the user to manipulate the dry output with a guitar pedal, a true spring reverb from a modular system, or any vst in a DAW.
@@KNHSynths but thats more stuff to buy. just get the one thats in the synth right. doesnt need to be a real spring tank, just make sure the digital emulation is good enough.
@@JessyTeddles If you have a real spring reverb there is something in the sound that is very special I never heard even in the best emulations. And this is part of the sound of this machine. So the internal digital reverb is certainly cool and seems to sound good, but it is far from the sound of a real spring reverb. So it can be interesting to have one to make the synth shinning.
I've got a quite big modular with multiple fx modules and a doepfer spring reverb, so I'll have nothing to buy, I already got it :-) But for people who want to be the closest possible to the sound of the 2600 this is an important addition I think.
With the frequency of updates we're getting, I would expect this being released in just under two years.
I am thinking late fall christmas.they already have a working prototype on to production
