Behringer MODEL D Authentic Analog Synthesizer with 3 VCOs, Ladder Filter, LFO and Eurorack Format

The Behringer Model D is a very fine synth with fine build quality and truly proper sound. It has one very annoying flaw: if a note begins exactly when the previous one ends, the filter envelope doesn't trigger even though it should, just like with every other synth (the notes don't overlap). This problem is unique to this synth, it doesn't happen with any other analog synth I've ever used, and I've used quite enough synths, including modular setups with CV to MIDI modules. The only way to avoid this problem in the "Boog" is to disable "legato", but then you can't have this behavior when you actually need it (by extending the previous note so that it overlaps with the beginning of the next note). Despite this very annoying problem, I'm still giving it 5 stars, because the value for the money is off the charts, you get truly proper, high quality voltage controlled oscillators and ladder filter.

I'm new to analog synths, so this device is a good intro. It's not too complicated. Easy for a beginner to start dabbling around with. It's fun and makes some pretty amazing sounds.

This isn't an easy synth to learn if you're new to hardware synths. But it has a very big fan base who actively create and share patches with the community. To me, that's the best thing about this synth. Itself, it sounds solid. I like to slightly detune 2 of the 3 oscillators for a more melancholy feel to some tracks, and this gets it done perfectly. Other times, I'll turn 1 or 2 oscillators off and just make some simple plucks or stabs with one. Excellent synth. At this price range, it's a no brainer for anyone who plays with synths.

It sounds damn close to a Model D to my ear, and at a damn good price point. But it's a Behringer, so don't expect stellar build quality, and I would baby the hell out of it if I was planning on taking it anywhere.

A minimoog for 300 bucks… like it sounds and functions EXACTLY the same as the original. Every musician should own a minimoog.

Behringer did not just clone a classic synthesizer, they added multiple features. I am able to use this synthesizer along with my old PAiA Modular synthesizer and more recently purchased, Korg SQ-1 Sequencers. This instrument is well crafted, the knob use and switches are all quite solid, plus it is MIDI friendly for use with a computer or MIDI controller. I merely wish that this was either designed for a 19" rack style cabinet or that the case was square, so that it would easily sit upright. The overall height of this instrument is designed for use in a Eurorack style cabinet, but I will like construct custom made cabinets more in the style and size of my PAiA cabinets. All-in-all, it is a great instrument!

Nothing wrong with, i just did not like it, i was hoping it had a sequencer built in

I've never played a real minimoog myself but from what I understand and have witnessed through comparison videos this comes exceptionally close to replicating that sound. You'd be hard pressed to tell them apart in a blind test unless you're some kind of savant, and in a mix? Forget about it. That aside, it's a lot of fun, and an analog monosynth capable of such fat leads and basses at this price is hard to pass up. If I were less poor I'd have multiple (or the poly d!) Would be great I think for people newly interested in synthesis and veterans alike.
