Pls update with K-2 MK2 new features
but if you had compared the K2 with the MS20 desktop, with its rev1/rev2 filter switch, I guess you wouldn't have noted any difference: owning the original MS20, its 'mini' reboot and the desktop one, I can tell you that the last one can emulate perfectly both generations of his older bros, hence I deduce it must be the same with the Behringer clone...
genio gracias y saludos desde TIJUANA
3 minutes with the K-2 to hear other sounds in the context of a full track : ua-cam.com/video/Z6caLGda2xA/v-deo.html
I ve got one bought at thomann, I ve created an video about it
This small K2 is incredibly good
I’ve got in the past the original so I know what I m speaking about 😉
What the heck, a mark 2 is coming??? #behringerk2mkii when, where, how, ? what's new??????
Outro sounds like it's off the film "Scanners"
Ooh thanks! Love a bit of Cronenberg //Jason
@@ThomannSynthesizers nice demo too👍👍👍
@@GNeuman Thanks! Glad you enjoyed //Jason
My god that outro shook me
Do the LOW CUT FREQ and HIGH CUT FREQ knobs are looser than the rest and feels less smooth on the touch? I returned one for that reason and the replacement K-2 also has the same knobs
I didn't notice that at the time.. I hope your replacement is better! //Jason
i always thought that;'s by design: i think of them as my performance knobs, as in 303 cutoff etc. knobs
No pwm in? So the Korg MS-20m is winner for me, 2 filters, FM..., etc.
Good point! I do like the form factor of the original too //Jason
@@QPLAYS010 unfortunately there is not not the same panel on k2, check the difference in detail properly
Love the guitar synth! Saucool!
Isn't it! Blew me away how good it tracked too... You can input vocals too! //Jason
@@ThomannSynthesizers This is what I needed to confirm for my purchase... Can this handle chords?
Gordon Ramsay?
Synth chef extrodinaire! //Jason
not even close to being an MS-20 clone. Maybe an MS-20 mini relative...
first cousin? 🤔
The difference between k2 ans ms20 is not about the osc/vco or filter sounds, the problem is about the patchbay and ESP sounds. K2 is very limited, sadly, and we can obtain the same rich textures than on the ms20 (mini and m). UNFORTUNATLY no or few reviews talks about it...
Can you explain a bit more about the issues with the patch bay on the K2?
@@QPLAYS010 I have a frien who have the original ms20 ans the ms20m. So I know what I say. The same panel does not mean the same texture. so WTF are you talking about ?
@@QPLAYS010 not it is not the same ;-)
@@QPLAYS010 MS-20m is not the same as MS-20 mini and you wrote ms-20m (you wrote: WTF are you talking about ? K2 is very limited ? it has exactly the same panel than MS20m...) if you thought MS-20 mini please write properly
@@QPLAYS010 midi input does not produce a better or richer sound texture...
Excuse my ignorance but I can't see what producing a series of electronic sounds does...Can it produce any orchestral sounds?
yeah bruh
@@jessihawkins9116 thanks 'bruh'..
lol. thats what i do at superbooth, ask the developer what the new module/synth/gadget can do, and then: ah yes. can you make it sound beautiful. And For YOU: get educated and get a violin or a cello and dont watch analog mono synth demos asking for orchestral sounds.
@dasczwo Oh dear, fancy having an opinion or a question that you don't like, how thoughtless of me. In the future I will contact you to find out what I should think about everything. In the meantime, pass on my condolences to everybody who knows you.
Not understanding the potential value/use of electronic music in 2024 sniffs of troll, but your ignorance is excused on the condition of your willingness to learn. The answer to your question is yes! Early synth music was very much invented as a way of replicating orchestral timbres. See: Wendy Carlos, Mort Garson, Suzanne Ciani, Delia Derbyshire, et al. Can you make a mono synth sound exactly like a violin or flute or bassoon? No. But you can, through skillful manipulation, create new sounds that mimic those instruments’ acoustic and harmonic properties.
