  • I bought one of these but i know nothing about synthesis and i can't even get any sound out if. I've flipped every switch, turned every knob and pushed every slider. I feel so stupid.

  • Now, if this was manufactured with better components, instead of the cheapest possible, then maybe I would consider this. I'm not supporting the throw away consumer market mentality.

  • Great review! Thanks for the thorough explanations. I particularly appreciated you demonstrating the synth with some really cool sequences.

  • I was a keyboard tech for 40 years, mostly on the digital era synths. What I absolutely hated when I owned all my analog synths was the tuning drifting all over, the lack of polyphony, and the lack of velocity sensitivity. It is my understanding that Behringer is essentially making all these new remakes with the identical circuits, just with smaller surface mount components and modern construction and manufacturing. So I am assuming they still have the tuning stability problems? It will be interesting as to how long it takes for the new younger generation discovering analog synthesis before they get fed up with its shortcomings and fairly bleak sound.

  • Great review, you have me concerned with the build quality though! Only time will tell I guess.

  • Sounds like an Alex Ball demo tune and those are the best on Youtube! Awesome! ????

  • Thank you for posting this. I bought a MS-5 and found out there’s not much of a manual. I will look online for the Roland SH 5 manual, thanks for that tip. Any idea where i can find sound setting examples? I am quite new to synthesizers and i hope someone can help me out.

  • The user interface is what drives most of nowaday's synthesizers unit cost. Paying little for hardware and get Moog-level built quality simply isn't possible.

  • The LFO and S&H frequencies can surely be dealt with by a firmware update, if enough people complain about it

  • Great demonstration of a nice sounding synth. Shame about the plastic shafted pots, etc, but this is what you have to put up with if you want affordable synths. Fine in the studio, maybe not so much on the road, but I'm pushing 60 now and that's not so much of an issue for me ????
    Thanks for posting this. I might grab one of these!

  • SENT MINE BACK , felt cheap , wobbly knobs , octave bleed through when selected on knobs , midi not reliable unless a short short cable is used plastic shafts !! i got a pro3 instead .

  • Great vid, mate! Can I ask you about the fantastic twisted cables and where to find it? ????????????

  • i'm so glad behringer is here to have a piss on this long-time over-valued market. kudos.

  • You are one of the best products reviewers on YouTube.
    Thorough and articulate.
    The music examples show the true nature of the products you review.
    The in and outs of the instruments interfacing and their use help us out in buying decisions. Thank you so much. I just found your channel btw.

  • I had one of these on order. But then the Muse suddenly was anounced, so I ordered one of those instead. I might still get this later though.. seems like a fun lil synth!
