Not my thing personally but… Behringer is currently the only company that i am genuinely excited about because they are bringing synths that people actually want at a price that is affordable. I’ve never been a fan of digital or digital hybrid synths, i’m more into the analog stuff that i grew up some 30+ years ago but still all credit to behringer for bringing back this classic… keep it up behringer, i love what you are doing 😊
@@reecedeyoung6595 I always thought of the 80s as the "analog" decade, but the more I"m learning, the more I'm realizing the 80s was the digital decade. Even before the DX7. Anthony and all his Synclavier videos, going back to like 1981 etc. Mixing analog with digital on Thriller and all this.
Thank you Uli Behringer and your highly capable team! _Never ever_ get discoured by jealous people trying throwing dirt on you, lots of musicians love and appreciate what you do very much 😊
People complain about how small these things are, well that's the point there supposed to be small and I dont have a problem with it, I dont have the space for anymore full size synthesizers.
I echo what joecandy said below. For many, Behringer bring exciting products at more realistic prices. At times when most other manufacturers are happy to keep hiking prices and build hardware that's just getting further out of reach to most ppl. No wonder Behringer are going from strength to strength.
A small company can't build synths in mass for lowering the average price, unlike behringer. There are fixed costs like research, and if you have 100 k € of research but you can only build 100 synth, you have a fixed cost of 1000 € per synth, even if i is the most garbage synth of the universe ( this is why very small companies can do only high quality synths, because they will have a high cost in any case ), and you have all the cost on the components, materials, etc... there again a great company like behringer is advantaged by its size, by allowing big batch of items, with lower cost than a company making some crafted synth with only 100 synths. Industrialization is a big factor against hand crafted high quality synths , again it reduces the cost per synth. This is why for the 8 voices smith synth, 20 000 € wad the good price, because it was produced hand crafted at very limited number of synths, with a lot of reasearch for an innovative polysynth of high quality. without taking in count the most polemic sides of behringer, it is easy to understand why behringer can sell synths at lower cost than many synth companies who have a smaller size..
Sounds good in an 80's sort of way. Synthwave people will love it. A little too small for me personally and I don't use that kind of sound so much but a lot of people will like it.
Have to admit, it sounds pretty alright...but...good luck with the 'YT content match' algorithm hehe 😉 Jump - Van Halen One More Time - Daft Punk Energy 52 - Cafe Del Mar Sandstorm - Darude Axel F - Harold Faltermeyer
This is it. This is what I want. I don't need synths to be huge - I just need to be able to tweak knobs in a way that VSTs just don't let me. That's it. Sounds pretty good too.
@@femto859 I prefer using smaller midi controllers with a limited number of knobs. Some synths also have features I wouldn't touch or know how to approach. This synth is a good example. I would not be bothered to click on the joystick thing, and not all midi controllers come with one or something equivalent to map it to. For me, working with a hardware synth where I can get lost and just program patches for a few hours and then use them with either a built-in or midi keyboard has always been more engaging as a workflow. I've just tried and tried and tried to use VST synths with and without a midi controller, and I always end up either making super basic patches or tweaking presets. Any instruments outside of a drum machine I'd rather mess with on my own. Personal preference, but I imagine there's other people like that out there.
I can't help but notice the joystick wasn't used at all. And it's a primary feature of the VS. I gotta ask why not? That's extremely important. Far more so than the knobs the person was twiddling. Upon announcement of this I immediately got on the waiting list at Sweetwater.
Haven't been this excited since the Crave was released! This incorporates the popular wavetable and stacked waveform sounds of much much more expensive synths into an affordable package! This thing could stand up to the Walforf Blofeld, Korg MonoPoly, CS-80, Kawai K3, and others that provide that lush 80s synth sound that makes you want to stay and jam for hours! Definitely a professional production tool!
I'm actually really looking forward to this synth but I'm surprised there was no action on the vector joystick that was one thing I was looking forward to seeing how it works in action
Sounds great, and bodes well for confidence in the other mini synths you've teased so far. Personally I'm looking forward to adding te Victor to my rack, so any news on that one? ;-)
Cannot wait! Hopefully with this coming to market some of the other prototypes they teased us with in 2020 will enter production too, including the HIROTRIBE!!!
@@PatchDog I don't know if this was your work but I was absolutely amazed by the music featured in the Poly D introduction video, around the 10 minute mark.
@@gctechs Cheers mate, I really appreciate that. Yes that was me, I do all the Behringer videos, took a break for a while but I'm back now. Hopefully much better stuff to come :)
Haha, I know I'm dreaming, but a Kawai K5000 mini would be very nice. Maybe you could call it K5KSW, with the knobs from the K5000S and the extra PCM waveforms from the K5000W.
Yepp, there are no other additive hardware synths out there...I owned the K5000 series. Could look nice in a little bigger format, with a size like the Edge, Neutron, with a proper display and tons of pots, lol.
Sounds phenomenal, and a digital polysynth of unusual pedigree with analog filters for $99 is almost too good to be true. I have fond memories of playing with a wavestation and it was an ambient monster. But but but.. When can i buy one???
![เจอประจำ ตอน เปิดเทอมวันแรก [EP.29]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/eFK-B836i60/mqdefault.jpg)
I wish Behringer makes a tiny unit with really good Rhodes and Wurlitzer pianos around $99.
I was thinking exactly the same thing!!!
Reface is hard to beat
hell yeah !!!@@kokopelli314
I honestly recommend the reface cp. Its really practical. I just wish they made a rackmount or desktop version of all the refaces
@@ronanbax6102or even a full size key version
I’ll be purchasing all the synths in this range. It will be absolutely wonderful to have such an arsenal in so small a form for performing.

@@Johanthegnarler I’ll risk it 😉
Not sure how minijack output would survive gigs? Seems like this is more of a desktop synth for home studios?
@@decimal1815why would a minijack out be a problem for live gigs?

Holy shh! That thing sounds huge. Definitely interested in picking one up. I can never get VSTs to sound that good.
So many goodies packed in a small package. The sounds are great and I love the addition of a screen. Great work team at behringer. 👏👏👏
This is OUTRAGEOUSLY GOOD………
2:46 OMMMGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You hit me right into my memories….!!
Energy 52 - Cafe Del Mar for people who might not know.
How could anyone say it's NOT sounding incredible 🔥

What does this Synth let you tweak better than a proper midi controller with big knobs and vst?
Being dependent of an operating system, being dependent on software updates, being dependent a computer. No, let me just use hardware synths.

You guys deliver once again. Thank you, Behringer.
This little synth is amazing! I hope the FM synth is on the way! And I pray it has portamento!
Always wanted a VS, now it’s possible Can’t wait. Please use the vector joystick in future demos though, it's a major feature.

I plan on getting this and the Victor if/when it releases. A great sound in a very small package.
Excellent - of all the Bolcas this is the one I was most looking forward to. 👍
A mini wasp would be so cool😮😁👍
Sounds great! Kind of Korg DW series-ish. I’ll definitely be buying this lil Unit.❤
Amazing sounds for the price and size
I specifically like the form factor! I think they will be a bigger hit than expected.
Can’t wait to see this in a store somewhere! Will be pre ordering as soon as they’re up 👍.
Wow, sounds quite a bit nicer than I anticipated. Very nice

Great sounding filter.
Very cute, and the chorus is a nice touch.
Looks awesome! Now I just cant wait for the FM mini synth to come out!! I hope it has portamento!
As a craftsynth, PO. SP, snd volca owner, this form factor is right up my alley.
At last: the "Bolca"
Great product design & sound!
I don't like the formfactor, but it sounds huge and brilliant, so great job. For people who like tiny synths like this I'm sure it'll be a hit.
Just connect a controller and go
Cannot wait! Hopefully with this coming to market some of the other prototypes they teased us with in 2020 will enter production too, including the HIROTRIBE!!!
