Thank you so much for this video. A life saver for me. I looked everywhere for the vector path! Behringer better have given you a demo unit for doing this!
Brilliant, thank you very much for making this tutorial. I got my Pro VS mini last week but the manual is short and I couldn’t figure out how to set the vector points. This video should be viewed by everyone who buys this synth!
Thanks for the comment !! Yeah, at first is a bit confusing. The manual doesn't help at all. Most of the guide I figured it out on my own, knowing how the original works helped a lot XD
Wow! What an incredibly detailed, clear and truly brilliant intro for some like me, an absolute beginner. This really really helped me so much. Thank you ❤❤❤
I watched your video before I ordered my VS Pro, and I just watched it again after receiving my VS Pro. Now, your video makes so much more sense. Thank you so much for that.❤🇩🇰
Thank you for such an in depth dive into this little synth! It's definitely made its way onto my future-synth wish list. I appreciate all your effort in making this video. Cheers!
Huge help bro, super thorough and clear. I've used this one for the VS and the one for Crave. I almost only want to buy gear you've done a tutorial for lol. Thanks bro!
I looked through the comments and saw no mention of it, but the new firmware update 1.1.5 is supposed to fix the mix bi-directional loop issue. I will be updating later to day to try it out.
Es una maravilla esta explicación en detalle del sinte XNB! , en Arg se está vendiendo a un precio medianamente razonable y realmente lo vale, el sonido que tiene y las variaciones son fantásticas, creo que para el aprendizaje de estos sintes parafónicos - vectoriales conmo primera medida estan super bien para arrancar! En concreto, buena opción! y mas acompañado de la explicación de XNB ! Gracias, abrazo!
Muchas gracias !!!! Para arrancar o no esta bueno el sinte. Para aprovechar lo que tiene para dar hay que aprenderlo si o si, sin excusas. Gracias siempre por los comentarios !!!
When I first got mine, I felt a bit disappointed on first impression, but when I gave it a chance and actually learned the capabilities of this synth from your video, I am amazed by it, and couldn’t be happier with purchasing it. It has absolutely everything I was looking for in a first synth. It’s amazing to me how something so small and cheap can sound and create such big things. Amazing video.
am i correct to assume that it is NOT possible to morph with the joystick effectively .. when you are using midi to trigger the pro vs? cos i dont hear it doing anything :\ and if it is possible HOW?
Thank you very much for the really successful explanation! Unfortunately it's too late for me. Because I sold it again after two weeks because the presets didn't convince me! Behringer would do well to describe this important information in the instructions! Unfortunately I didn't give myself enough time to find out for myself. Maybe I'll buy it again when the prices drop! Have a nice time 😊
Hey, thanks for the comments. Yeah, at first it's not a "get great sounds out of the box" synth. The factory presets are not that good. You need to spend a little bit of time, use the full power of the vector to get something good out of it. Specially if you use it with a good FX processor.
So far no. I guess it will drop soon with a couple more things. But I really have no idea. I don't have contact with the Behringer guys. Thanks for the comment.
@@XNBeatsMusic I've read the firmware 1.1.4 is out now but I still can't test it since I ordered the unit but I'll get it in few days, so don't know if this new one fixed the problem. Cheers
I found out that the tempo can be synchronized with a DAW or an external clock to ensure both are in sync. To determine the tempo when using the arpeggiator in the PRO VS MINI, you would need to set the tempo in your DAW and then sync the synthesizer to the DAW's clock. This way, the arpeggiator's speed will match the tempo set in your DAW.
Thanks for this, really helpful video deep dive, esp for those considering in buying one like me. Can the Decay on the Envelope go "infinite" - for drones :-)
Very good deep dive, just have a question: Does the arpeggiator or anything else have a hold setting or button, so that when I release the key it keeps playing? The original prophet vs does have it and it is very useful.
I cannot even work out how to play a simple repeating four note sequence and store it without the rhythmic notes coming in from one of the 32 programs. Please show how to do a simple step sequence. Thank you.
Thank you, thank you, thank you ! Your explanations are quite clear and very useful. Except maybe regarding the sequencer, the metronome is active all the time and makes me confused, as we say in french it looks as a gaz factory ! It appears there's no step editing, I'll soon know as I should receive mine within a few days. I agree with jteichma !
So what are the units of Attack, Decay, and Release? I'm new to synths and this concept seems weird, especially since the Sustain is a different type of thing. Thanks for the video!
I will mention you if I ever need tech support from Behringer. This was a really good dive. I love using it. I want to link and use my Edge and it together with the Akai keyboard. Also have the Modal Skulpt and TD3. A whole jam band of sequencers.
The best way to try if you have sound or not is connecting your headphones to the direct out > load a factory patch > max volume. If still no sound, you might want to use the warranty.
Muchas Gracias por hacer éste video. Muy completo. Pero me gustaría saber qué es éste parámetro. Ej. OSCILLATOR A 120 / 00 . (08) * * No está especificado.
Thanks for such a good video. Loved it. I have ordered the synth and waiting to try it out. I have a question regarding the vector. What if I want a certain blend to remain throughout the sound? Do I have to set all the points to the same blend between A,B,C and D? Or how else would I go about it?
Hello !! Thanks for the comment. Yes, that is one way. But, a better way is to set the initial point ( 0 vector point ) on whatever blend you want, and the set all the VECTOR MIX KNOBS all the way to cero, set the envelope loop to "no loop". When you play, since the vectors have nowhere to go, It will stay at the Cero point. It will work like a 4 OSC's synth pretty much.
Using pro-va to record (to my zoomr16) i was disappointed by its very low output level compared to the yamaha ref cs.. how do you solve that? I would like to record both at the same time. Apart from that, cool machine and this is by far the best tutorial on ytube
I remember studying my Volca Sample 2 with your video, thanx. Dumb question: does this device only load a single patch? If I hook it up to a multichannel midi sequencer I ll only able to play a single patch?
A superb video, as usual, I have one question please: how to play with an external midi keyboard, I have the Akai Mpk plus and I just connected to mpk midi out to the provs mini midi in, anyway no sound came out in this way
Just got mine today and it's my first synth! I'm curious how you're able to contorl this with an external keyboard? I noticed you don't have anything connected in the Midi Input? Can I controll it thru a DAW or something else?
I would like one but 32 patches is a bit limiting for me, I love to design sounds and that limitation is ridiculous in 2024, I hope they fix that in a firmware update, I would want at least 100 preset/patch slots as a bare minimum
Thanks to those who include 5 pin midi inputs on these devices. But f##& the manufacturers of the external keyboards who have no output but a usbB. We NEED information on syncing these devices and externally connecting them and using them for music creation.
This is a very well made guide. Here is a link, to a video about the new features, in the Version 2.0 firmware. One thing I wish it had, is a Random option in the ARP/Sequence menu. Thanks very much, for helping me learn about all the features, in this great little synth. Best wishes for your continued success 🎹🎶☮ ua-cam.com/video/JAuPhntWN1s/v-deo.htmlsi=EyoBhEcSqaSo8qzv
How the hell do you hook up an external keyboard? I see Midi In which is perfect. However, you cannot buy a Midi keyboard with 5 pin out that is self powered. So The hard part of this business you never explain, that is External connections. For this device it seems simple but with my other synths i cannot configure an external keyboard as yet. All keyboards (MIDI come with USB B outs and I have not found an adapter yet that goes from 5 pin to USB B. EDIT: Finally found the keyboard you want. AKAI APK mini plus. Do not buy anything else, they all suck.
Thank you so much for this video. A life saver for me. I looked everywhere for the vector path! Behringer better have given you a demo unit for doing this!

Glad you like it! That is the idea of this channel. I assume you are starting. I plan the whole video as a crash course.
It came today 😁😁😁😁 can’t wait to get off work !!! And try this out ! This is my first synthesizer ever … thank you for this video
Yay !!!! Enjoy it !!!
I got mine today, it's also my first... Luck to us both!
Mine's gonna arrive tomorrow, my first synth, too! Looking soooo forward to playing with it and exploring!
Ok best advice after having owned some of the nicest devices I wish I never sold: NEVER SELL SYNTHS OR DRUM MACHINES EVEN THO YOU BEGIN TO HATE THEM.
There is *so much* more to this synth then I thought. But without your video, I don't think I would have realized. Bless you and your efforts ✨
I watched your video before I ordered my VS Pro, and I just watched it again after receiving my VS Pro. Now, your video makes so much more sense. Thank you so much for that.❤🇩🇰

am i correct to assume that it is NOT possible to morph with the joystick effectively .. when you are using midi to trigger the pro vs? cos i dont hear it doing anything :\
and if it is possible HOW?
this is killing the usability of this thing for me. Seems so obvious....
Thank you....This is by far the easiest and most comprehensive tutorial I have found to get me started with the PRO VS.
Thanks you for that! I speak Spanish but for me is a great to find a video explain it despite you speak English! Thanks!!

Thanks for this! Coffee due soon!
Thanks for this great videos and for having a nice informative channel!
Ordered one because of this video.. Well done! Great Info!!
Well hopefully Behringer sees this comment hahaha. Thanks for the comment, glad you liked it :)
Great manual as always.
Glad you liked it, thanks for the comment.
Video is fantastic. The guy toi decided to place de "restore" buttom beside "save" buttom is a genius... need to be carefull there!
Can you set the LFO to modulate waveform traversal ? or is it just a fixed routing to filter and pitch ?
who needs loopop when XNB is on the case!
2:40 Getting some Roland D50 vibes there. I wonder how the Pro CS Mini compares to the D50/D05 sound wise?
praying for an up date to sync LFO to midi clock :\
Just did my first session intuitively.ill learn tricks here.
Congratulations !!! Hope you like the guide. Thanks for the comment.
Brilliant and super helpful,thankyou😎
This video is a work of art. Thx. Unbelievable well
how to connect the pro vs mini to your DAW or Midi keyboard?
i bought the PRO VS MINI today! It works goood and I wanted to through away all my VSTI and samples after hearing this little Box:)🙈😅
Thanks for the comment, glad to hear you liked it :)
It's that good 🤔😳
Thanks! I've got this one too. It's incredibly intuitive but still I learned a ton from your video. Have a great day!
Thanks !!! It's cool right ? I was expecting less, but if you pair it with some nice FX it can give a lot of sounds.
@@XNBeatsMusic Yeah, it's beefy! Even without by itself, I cranked up the release time and this thing became an instant ambient beast 😀
Thanks 👍🏻. Informative video 💪🏻. Do you know if with a firmware update they fixed the vector looping bug you found in this video? Again thanks
So far no. I guess it will drop soon with a couple more things. But I really have no idea. I don't have contact with the Behringer guys. Thanks for the comment.

Can you sequnce time divisions, 16th, 8th, 4th etc. on the sequencer?
Thanks for this video.
Imo Behringer should buy you coffees! Thanks for your great dive into the pro vs mini
haha, yes they should, but well it is what it is. Thanks for the comment and support :)
Thanks for this, really helpful video deep dive, esp for those considering in buying one like me. Can the Decay on the Envelope go "infinite" - for drones :-)
Thanks for the comment. Yeah, for ambient, drones and that vibe it's a good synth.
If you loop the envelope.
the arp function doesnt work for me anybody know why
Mine is super quiet Is there a way to turn it up 🆙
I LOVE 😘 your accent. The main reason i watch 🥰
haha, I hate it. It's a weird combination of different languages, it is weird. But I try to get better on every video.
@@XNBeatsMusic DON'T CHANGE IT. IT GIVES YOU GREAT PERSONALITY 😁🙂
AYO
Is there a way to set the speed of the mix envelope? Is it stuck at the same lengths or is it following amp/filter envelope?
Very good deep dive, just have a question: Does the arpeggiator or anything else have a hold setting or button, so that when I release the key it keeps playing? The original prophet vs does have it and it is very useful.
Nope, it doesn't. Or I could not find it at least. Thanks for the comment.
I cannot even work out how to play a simple repeating four note sequence and store it without the rhythmic notes coming in from one of the 32 programs.
Please show how to do a simple step sequence.
Thank you.

Awesome work as usual. Thanks for sharing!
XNB, I preordered the Victor,the Eurorack equivelant of the engine in the Pro VS mini. This tutorial will be a good starting point when I use it.
I have one on order, looking forward to it even more now :)
Alright !!! Hope you love it.
how do you feed it power so you don't get those bumps?
I see that the numbers on your screen are also twitching) I thought that it was only just some kind of defect in my synth
TY SO MUCH!!!
Thank you for comment !!! Cheers.
Très bien expliqué. Bravo
128 waveforms but only 32 presets?
I bought one of these two days ago. I'm so excited. I think for ambient it's very nice, but I don't know how to update firmware or add some new sounds

The best way to try if you have sound or not is connecting your headphones to the direct out > load a factory patch > max volume.
If still no sound, you might want to use the warranty.
It doesn’t send audio through USB. You must use the phones jack.
Thank you !
great video.
does this piece of hardware get frequently get updated?
What do you mean ?
@@XNBeatsMusic is the firmware updateable?
@@freewheelburning8834 Oh, yes. You need to download the Synthtribe app and do the update from there, if any.
So the LFO rate cannot be synced to the tempo?

Behringer's documentation is none existent. It's the worst aspect of the brand. There's no excuse for it being so awful.
Lol a very small manual
