Thanks for your feedback - I’ve learned something new again! I was so excited about the device and somehow overlooked in the manual that it can be tuned and fine-tuned. Is the device broken, or am I just not getting the hang of it? So, this is how the Spice sounds straight out of the box when turned on 🙈☺it does sound weird, broken or noisy. I think I found the mistake. An update is coming soon!
Got mine today, absolutely brilliant machine that behringer has conjured up. I already have the Crave, Edge and the Grind. Behringer has realised what people like. The Moog for everyone, so to speak...
Yes - awesome, and even better that you already have the Grind. I sold my Minifreak. The digital module from Brains will definitely make up for selling my Minifreak. How does it sound? I still have to wait months for it... 😎 and thanks for your feedback - motivates a lot!
Moog might have an issue with you saying that Behringer conjured this up!! I’ve got a SubH and it’s a really interesting bit of kit. Might get a Spice to pair with it.
@@GoodAfternoonDave I hopefully have the chace to test the moog on day... same with playing the guitar... I started with a cheap on back then, stuck with it, and later invested in better instruments. Getting started is what counts-the rest will follow!☺ my
That was more of a coincidence - I was so happy that it finally arrived. About 8 weeks ago, I sold my Model 15 when the news came out. I had been waiting so long for it. Ordered right away.... I really like the semi-modular series (Crave, Edge, Spice), alongside the Volcas. Thanks for your feedback! Best regards, Rodney 😎
Great to see someone taking a similar approach to a new synth as I did-this was literally me just six hours ago! 😄 My first move was setting all the knobs to their middle positions and seeing what sounds I could coax out of it. At least you found the tuning function quickly or yours was not so heavily out of tune as mine ! Mine was so wildly out of tune and off-scale at first that it was almost unplayable.
Yep - exactly! All knobs in the middle position, no handbook - and therefore no tuning. I assumed it was the same as Crave and Edge. 15 minutes warmup time 😮 So there’s more to explore and noodle around with 😉👍 By the way, your video is pretty cool!
@@AntaresWaveLab even if the the vco3340 is pretty stable in tuning it does need a proper voltage. This can either be achieved by using some electrical components or by adjusting some hidden trimpots. If the possibility to do so is provided by the manufacturer I would recommend to "fine-tune" the work done by some poor paid Chinese guys in the factory. The Poly D I own was tuned and scaled "somehow okay" but after I did the recalibration it was spot on.
@@philaesfarewell thanks for your tips and tricks ´bout tuning. Until now, the Crave runs stable. Tuning Model D is fun with the A- Signal to combine. That´s a good way...🙄👍

Thanks - the first jam video was a coincidence. Cool that you like it 👍😊 I just jammed away without a plan. I’m happy for you - let me know how you like it!
Should have got mine last week but it got delayed so hopefully it will arrive this weekend. Can't wait to get my hands on it and jam with my Crave, Edge, Grind. The set will be complete.
wow - thanks for your feedback - glad you have the Grind - I am still waiting for it, too... will be delivered in a couple of months 🙈😉 let me know, how they sound all together. I still have CRAVE & EDGE waiting to be patched to this machine, too. Hope you get your soon, too. Have fun! 😎
@@AndyFirebladeMuza I could image how it feels - I looked up the status for my order so often and was excited when it change from months, to weeks and so on! Have a spicy weekend than - enjoy☺
Two months after Behringer's release video, I think the first batch is sold out because you can order it again now, but it will take several months to arrive. In contrast, the Grind is out in the US, and I’ll also have to wait several months for it. 🤔🙈🤣
I was really excited about this little device, and after watching Behringer's announcement videos, I thought it would be pretty simple to combine the sound with the two extra sub-oscillators. That’s how this video came about. In the end, I got stuck down the rabbit hole and found the controls a bit tricky. Also, I didn’t read the manual-though there’s not much in it anyway. But I did tune the oscillators now, and it already sounds better. Since I enjoy deeper tones, I’ll probably give that a try. The sound in this video isn’t that great, though🙈🤔
@@AntaresWaveLabcan you do a video explaining the whole process on how to tune it? I have the crave and edge and still don’t know how to tune, i have not seen any youtube videos explaining the process! I’m a beginner, that would be very helpful!
@@sirsilver1968 I tuned mine as writen in the handbook - turns out well. And dronesounds with sub freqs make a lot of fun, too 🙈😊 What do like the most about it?
Its unpredictability and the ability to create complete random ambience trancelike sequences, i love it and coupled with my grind, its a match made in heaven.@@AntaresWaveLab
Even if the sound isn't great that's what FX units are for!! Nothing a nice Earthquaker device couldn't fix!!? Or whatever other FX processor units you choose to run it through? Doesn't even have to be a high grade FX unit. Run the FX unit through a multi band EQ UNIT OR PEDAL AND YOU CAN GET THAT PERFECT SOUND YOU'RE SEARCHING FOR!! THAT'S WHAT I LOVE ABOUT ELECTRONIC MUSIC THERE IS NO RIGHT OR WRONG!! ONLY WHAT THE CREATION YOU'VE SPAWNED WANTS ITSELF TO BE. WE ARE VERY WILLING SLAVES TO THE ALL POWERFUL MOTHER GODDESS OF MUSIC, FREQUENCY AND SOUND!!! HAPPY KNOBBING Y'ALL!!!
@@nathanielball365 you got it right! Thanks - I love my korg montron space delay and my zoom MS40CRD. Still have to grab my old distortion pedal from my times playing metral and grunge. this will to the job!

They conjured nothing. It's a moog clone

Congrats ❤ on your purchase and being the first video on UA-cam to jam with Spice! Can’t wait to try it. Mine’s been shipped 28/11 🎉

what a trip of sound... a sound trip if you may
Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed the journey of sound ☺
Cool sounds ❤ keep experimenting 🔥 subscribed ✨️ ✌️

@@AntaresWaveLab It's looking good for the Spice arriving this Saturday as the place I ordered it from now have them in stock.

Is this thing still pre order only ? How long did it take for you?

Is this first behringer analog synth whose sound does not suck???? It's not super awesome, but it's not bad at all.
It's got very dark tone and something that could be easily used with some nice fx units

don't be a dick
Got mine today and i cant use it till monday because of work commitments 😢
Please let me know, if your sound is harsh, too? I didn’t know it needed to be tuned. It sounds better now... 🙈 enjoy your spice!
Mine didnt sound harsh but i have to say it sounds fabulous, the potential it has is quite mind-blowing😮@@AntaresWaveLab

Klingt ja absolut schrecklich
Luckily, tastes differ - I’ll still have to fine-tune this one. Thanks to @philaesfarewell for their tips at this point 😉
exploring the possibilities ;-) and at some point you get a sweet spot and the magic happens
