yes I think it’s best that we all regularly take a step back and remind ourselves that how serious a musician you are is aligned perfectly with how much you spend on gear. It’s important that we state this lest the poor scum become too big for their boots
I will continue to post, when i have significant and on topic things to say, that furthers a factual discussion relative functional aspects of the Edge. I have purposely moved any posting regarding Behringer specifically to the Clone War thread. I think if others do the same and show respect of others then posting here is fine.
ADDED : There is now also a Behringer Synth Quality thread.
Being respectful towards others matters.
praise Lord Uli, he has blessed us with another weapon to wield
Longtime (mostly) lurker here logging in to say we really appreciate your serious effort contributions @Jukka
As anyone might expect, one doesn’t come here to specific gear threads to read spam on how behringer is the devil ruining the world.
I don’t have that much space left on my studio so I usually prefer to pay more and have quality gear on my table instead of wasting time and space with cheap gear.
I don’t own any Behringer or Moog equipment at the moment - mostly because I like to keep my studio as minimal as I can and Elektron really fills most of my needs.
That being said, I’m super curious about semi modular and knob per step - I’m following this topic expecting to know more about functionality and sound quality on this specific device.
I’ve created a thread to discuss the quality of Behringer synths. Their will be interesting discussion there.
Talking about Behringer synth quality is off topic here.
There is also a Clone War thread if that’s your topic.
UPDATED
I mean damn y’all, I was trying to say that I was OK with Edge. Like I can see the value of a cheap DFAM, with midi. The sensitivity is real
make no mistake, I literally don’t give a shit. It’s all gravy
It’s a rather regretably loaded/specific title which will create the kind of talk we want to avoid in favour of constructive contribution positive/negative
Something along these lines (below) would be more ‘open’ and preferable @Jukka ! - though it will likely end up in the same place
Behringer gear quality : is it commensurate with cost ?
or something along those neutral/general lines
Totally agree.
Factory and working conditions, environmental concerns etc are all valid … intellectual property concerns regarding Big Synth are kinda hilarious.
Please, let’s keep these fairly well covered aspects within their respective existing threads ! moving fwd people let’s aim for Behringer Edge centric posts FTW
And now I’m hungry again. Thanks.
I want to check out this Edge. It’s the same price as the latest Volcas and I’ll be damned if it isn’t way more interesting to me. I would love Behringer to come up with something a bit more unique, say their own take on a Volca Drum-style digital percussion synth, but from a business perspective something like this is likely far more practical. Run the Edge through the AH and I bet it will come out beastly. I’ll get one when they’re second hand like I do with all my gear, then I can’t even be accused of feeding the machine.
more perc synths pls
pls no
Not sure I agree, but depends on what you mean by seriously, I have tried some different TR808 clones and the RD8 is a winner, so is the Model D and the PRO-1.
Back to topic, I really wish that Behringer would include start/stop/reset and some digital LFO’s to the Edge.
Something similar to korg’s (or Roland’s) active step would be great
there are not enough interface elements to accomodate that functionality in an ergonomic way… (EG 8 buttons)
Velocity = 0 could mean step deactivated. Far from ideal but still possible, depending on current implementation. But it won’t happen anyway and you’re right, buttons would be much more ergonomic. I think it’s a missed opportunity.
