It's not just Behringer, Arturia just bitch slapped Moog with the PolyBrute 12. I'm glad I kept my originals which were designed by Bob. Uli doesn't hide the fact that he is selling cheap Chinese clones. Moog is trying to convince us to pay for expensive Chinese clones. Now where TF is my BCR32 Uli?

[jumpstar]

Too right man. The innovation that Behringer is bringing to the table is delivering great products at affordable prices, and doing it consistently. What more could anyone want.

[jumpingman]

Moog is that fancy rich burguoise guy in the Titanic that refuses to get in the life boat with the working class as the Titanic is sinking

[jaypkock]

For me as a new synth-head - I look at sounds and prices and I can only say - even of I won $10000 I would only buy Behringer products...

Idk why I would want to spend more on one Moog, Subsequential or even Roland, synth when I can spend on multiple devices that sounds perfectly good to my ears - with added features...

Like come on - my first synth I got now, the pro-800 not only sounds great, it has CC MIDI so I can literally use it as analogue hardware OR a MIDI controller for VSTs? This is for the price of what only the MIDI CC desktop would cost? No-brainer

[Heathcliff_hensel]

Moog charges premium prices for the most basic synthesizers.

0:33 Suzanne Ciani likes Buchla. It's all in the name name, like Moog.

Whoever can take what is already known in electronic circuitry, and engineer the designs of synths that we as consumers want, these companies will succeed. Roland was at one time at the top of design/ development, but I personally would not buy any of their products today.. Uli is doing the right thing, taking good ideas and concepts, and not only making them better, but making them affordable... His company is seeing profits that others can only dream of... How many more Moog One 16 voice units would have been sold if they were $5, 000, instead of $10, 000. How many more Arturia PB12 's would sell if the price was brought down.. I believe the two items in particular would generate more profit for the companies, by virtue of more items sold. Yes, a smaller profit margin, but more profit due to increased number of sales...

[lundsweden]

Moog probably secretly use Behringer made components.

IMO Roland should make a new analog synth with Behringer. They worked with Studio Electronics to make the SE-2, why not work with the big B to make a new 16 voice Super Jupiter synth with poly aftertouch.

[DjDoggDad]

Stradivarius created the modern standard of what is a violin, we don't fault luthiers for building strad styled clones, in fact its even expected. Uli & gang are just electronic luthiers using the standards that were set in place of what we expect certain things to sound like. Sure I would love an original 808 or moog or *insert antique overpriced gear here*, but a styled copy can do the thing, sure I would love a strad but a styled copy can do the thing.

[RichKielbasa]

Moog should Photoshop Uli in their next few advertisements. Worked for Behringer.

[DukedeLux]

I think Moog has been in the Upsidedown for a while, specially after the new owner’s take over. Let’s hope Moog will recover and offer new products to more competitive prices after the integration with InMusic. In the previous situation I honestly think Moog could not compete in prices with Behringer or other brands, just because of the company’s scale factor and production located in US. Kind of comparing Zara with a local taylor. It is a wonder that customers have kept Moog alive paying the extra fee for almost taylor made products. All the other original synth companies went bankrupt and discontinued production.
On the other side Behringer is creating synthaddiction with their never ending reincarnations

[SpaceCapsuleOne]

Buickla has adapted Balenciaga 's pricing strategy. 10k?

Where's Cycling Mikey when you need him.

Second thought/comment: the recent Behringer Facebook comment no synth should cost more than $1500 is ridiculous. If you make a good living at it premium grade studio kit and touring boards are worth every penny. Also, those with a lot of disposable income who prefer a premium build are better served there as long as the rest of what they want from a synth is also present. I appreciate Behringer kit as a hobbyist where it can be a great fit. At the same time one and done with a Hydrasynth Deluxe covers pretty much ALL the territory of EVERY announced or shipped Behringer synth...

[kvmoore]

If the original designer of a synth is behind the development of it's recreation, then the synth is not a clone. It is a reissue of the original.

BTW, How about a nice new $5000 appalachian cherry Minimoog Model D. Hehehe.

How about a Minimoog Model D Lite that is the "SAME SIZE, " "SAME LOOK, " with the "SAME SOUND" but with a cheaper lighter weight chassis. Exchange the wood for sturdy plastic, like on the Grandmother and Matriarch. Keep the spacious tiltable control panel with the large knobs. Sell it for $2500, half the price of the regular Minimoog. Keep the regular Minimoog for those with deep pockets, but make a more affordable lighter version for those who can't afford the regular more expensive one. I think that would be a win-win for everyone.

On a side note, I can remember when the first Model D reissue back in 2017 was selling for $3500 and some people thought even that was still too much money for a Minimoog.

[smartti]

good luck on your monday ... we need a minimoog with ikea wood for 1500.-

[charlesbronson]

Im curious how the Enigma sounds. I wanna hear if the lpg sounds right.

[jjrusy]

i ate it to get a grandmother made in asheville. prior to the buyout, i was kicking around selling it. i think i will keep it as a memento. speaking of behr killing it, 2 of those model15's= a matriarch minus the keyboard for $600

[samprock]

I have very few synths Buchla 208C, Moog Model D, Moog Subsequent 37, Korg ARP 2600 Zero Behringers, too many, too expensive 😜 Waiting for a Muse to kiss me ... or better 😁
Any Behringer that has Moog Subsequent 37 editor VST to control over DAW?

[klstay]

A disclaimer then first thought/comment: I have a Behringer MonoPoly, Cat, Model D, and RD9 - they have all been great. Delays in a synth release, especially the higher end models, are commonplace and NOT a big deal. An 8 voice bi-timbral great sounding synth (I will be shocked if it is other than great sounding) made with higher end components (top quality steel shaft pots, metal knobs, etc.) with a great workflow/interface at $4k is EXACTLY what a fair few want. $3500 for a 4 octave monotimbral 6 voice Trigon (also higher end components) which continues to sell well for a reason or $500 for the Muse...
