thanks for this awesome patch run through. i'm currently drooling over the behringer lineup and watching vids to decide where to pull the trigger on one of their many synths.
I absolutely love the series on this synth. I'm a beginner myself and this was my first synth so I really appreciate the tutorials. You should definitely expand this series, a lead tutorial maybe ;) Keep up the great job, definitely my go to synth channel.

Haha! Yeah, this was one of those "Surprise! It sounds great played up at the top" patches. Actually, I've found that's the case a lot when building bass patches on this synth something about the character of the oscillators that really suit those kinds of patches.
I’ve always been so jealous of the lucite-inspired wheels on the 6. I’ve seen some weird 12 units that have that same look. Oh well - I still have an incredibly bad ass synthesizer. I can’t believe it came out of Behringer (Midas), but I really believe he set budget constraints and kind of let the London office loose. Too bad they didn’t end up going with the planned color screen due to cost. Love the computer/tablet integration, though! :D
@@OscillatorSink - yes! Funny, enjoying it so much, that I gave my DeepMind 6 to my son and just got the DeepMind 12. Just love how this synth gives you amazing results at such a great price point. Truly an Epic synth and will go great w/ my Triton Extreme w/ MOSS board and an original Yamaha TX816, (8 DX7 Modules) BTW, Huge Fan of the channel, keep up the great work!
This is covered in section "4.8 Writing Programs" on page 13 of the Deepmind manual. The manual is very comprehensive and the online PDF manual is very easy to search. In summary: Press "Write", choose a location for the patch, choose a name for the patch, press write again. If you're just overwriting the current patch just press "Write" twice. I hope this covers everything and that you enjoy your new synth!
@@pat3000721 I wonder if there was some unfortunate phase cancellation going on in that case? My suggestion would be: leave the synth on for about an hour and then run the calibration routines* - things may have drifted over time which is why it's not sounding as punchy when you stack up the voices. *(actually, in my experience you should run them twice back to back to get things properly tight, but your mileage my vary)
thank you for responding so quickly. have a question here. I want to go through the sound banks of sounds that came loaded in the keyboard and put them in favorite section for easy recall. later on I would like to edit these sounds and again save them to favorites. how many sounds can the favorite category hold. I the want to load some sound banks that I have purchased. when I do this will it erase the sounds in the favorites section that I have loaded. I would also like to load your sounds which I will be more than happy to pay you for and pay for any help you can give me. is this the best way to proceed to accomplish what I want to do. I have a computer guy that comes over to help me, as I am not that good on the computer. really appreciate any help...Larry
Hi Larry. To my knowledge there is no "favourites" functionality of the Deepmind (I've just checked the manual to confirm and I can't find any mention of it). From the factory, however, bank A (there are banks A-H, each with 256 sounds in), exclusively contains sounds from the other banks, so you can always safely overwrite any patches there. Most patches you can purchase will tell you which bank on the Deepmind it'll be installed to (this is an annoying limitation of the patch format), so generally speaking the routine is: install the patches, move the ones you want to keep to a safe bank, install the next set of patches and repeat. I've actually created my own system for distributing the patches that lets you choose where they go, so that's a little easier. Like I said before though - my patches are free, you don't need to pay for them.
@@OscillatorSink I think there is a favorites section. Press the prog and fx buttons together, then the +/yes button to mark a patch as a favorite, then turn the data knob to scroll through other favs.
Hmmm my delay looks just the same but doesn’t have the ping-pong, it goes from cross to mono and that’s it... Must be the software updates?? Thanks for all vids again!
You have to scroll backwards to ping-pong from the default setting - try that if you haven't - pretty sure ping pong was in there from the first version.
From the demos, which one sounds better to you? Is 4 note polyphony limiting to you? How much to you enjoy digging down into the nuance of sound design? Do you hate minikeys?
@@OscillatorSink thanks for answering my cry for help ;-) I have the monologue but just recently i've been lusting after juno classic sounds but not wanting the new Juno 06A the DM6 can almost replicate it to a degree , but I have also heard close sounding patches on the logue XD and like the Korg format too :-( can't decide, but you do have some good points in your reply ;-)
@@triplebacon1 I've had the Deepmind 6 and it's is vastly powerful and will get closer to the Juno. The Minilogue, which I've only tried, is much nicer to operate live and has a wide array of sounds especially with the XD version. Step sequencer obviously absent from Deepmind which is just weird especially when you consider the completeness of the synth otherwise. Minikeys on Korg are really not so bad, having said that the full size keybed on the Deepmind is very very good. Top quality, velocity sensitive (don't forget to turn it down or off when needed) & aftertouch
Nice video man, not used the Deepmind for quite some time, this has definitely persuaded me to get it out the box. I’m not sure the if it’s simply the polyphony that’s different between the Deepmind 12 and the 6 so not sure if the 6 has aftertouch available? I quite enjoy routing any vibrato/pitch shift modulation to the aftertouch, however I can see that whilst using the ARP on hold the mod wheel would have its benefits. But from a live aspect would definitely recommend aftertouch modulation. With perhaps slight modulation on the filter depth triggered via velocity, softer play = duller sound etc. Any little thing to help give a sound life and charisma! Amazing how the options on this synth are inherently endless.
Amazing sounds ( and variations) coming out of that synth -- not bad for $699! Probably works pretty good as a MIDI controller too, eh? What is the keyboard like? Great arp variations starting @ 16:50
Thank you! The keyboard is "fine". I think it's not unfair to say that it's one of the areas that was probably a compromise to make sure that the synth hit that price point. There's nothing wrong with it (although the aftertouch is a bit uneven in its sensitivity), but the action isn't exactly 'luxurious'. But I'm happy enough with it, and the sounds are inspirational enough that you don't really care about the feel of the keyboard!
Just bought a used 12D for the same cost as a 6 new. If you have a decent midi keyboard on another synth, just skip the keyboard and get the extra 6 voices!
It would be nice if you could start the vid by playin for example here bass sounds ,to show a little what the synth can do and,after,you will start talkin...Because we,the strangers that dont speak english we would be interested in less talkin video.Or if you could make another vid with "no talkin"...Dont take it bad,we like your vids.
I get your point, but a tutorial video with no teaching would be tough! I do have demos of all the patches I've created just search on my channel for "Patch pack".
+akos bacso this patch was a bit "generic" but check out the first couple of DeepMind videos I posted last week for some sounds you might find a bit more interesting. Thanks for watching.
You re absolutely crazy... I like you! I ll have to watch your videos many times. Please make more of that stuff
thanks for this awesome patch run through. i'm currently drooling over the behringer lineup and watching vids to decide where to pull the trigger on one of their many synths.
Thanks for sharing this sound creation.... I'm new with my Deepmind 12D and I'm really learning from you.
I hadn't seen this video yet, and... Thank you very much one more time, great tutorial. I learned a lot.

Brilliant! Such a great walkthrough ... your own enjoyment oozed out of this. Love it.
Thank you! Thanks for watching along!
Amazing vid series, thanks for uploading!
This was all sounding great and I was enjoying the video...then you turned the arp on and it blew my mind! I need to re-watch Stranger Things now.
Haha! Yeah, this was one of those "Surprise! It sounds great played up at the top" patches. Actually, I've found that's the case a lot when building bass patches on this synth something about the character of the oscillators that really suit those kinds of patches.

Just picked up a 6 and loving your tutorials!
Thank you, and I hope you're enjoying your new synth!
im getting mine tomoro! It's completely absurd and amazing that they have made a synth this powerful for that price.
Enjoy it! You're in for a fun time😀
This video is one of the main reasons why I got this synth!
I hope you're enjoying it!

Yesssssss! Hope you make some cool patches!
I love that analog goodness - :-) and -you got youreself a new subscriber !
Welcome to the channel!
Thank YOU @@OscillatorSink ! :-)
Thank you very mich: following this tutorial, manual in front me: studying as hell, making hell sounds and sounds like heaven ;)
before I buy the 6, can you walk me through how to save an edited patch in the keyboard. thank you

Really Truly Free Manual ! (RTFM)
All your shit is dope AF
+Ferhan Khan Photography thank you!
thanks! this really helped!
Happy to hear I could help out!
When I change the polyphony to Mono, the sound changes a lot and doesn't sound like what you're playing. Do you know why?
Can you describe how the sound changes?
@@OscillatorSink it just sounds deadend and flat. I got it to work but it was doing that for some reason. Thanks for the quick reply though

Have fun with it!
Great video. Some nice "brain-tickling" sounds. :D
+Caustic always be tickling those brains, that's what I always say!
Help!! I'm torn between this Deepmind6 and the korg minilogue XD can you help me Oscillator Sink make an informed decision ;-)
From the demos, which one sounds better to you?
Is 4 note polyphony limiting to you?
How much to you enjoy digging down into the nuance of sound design?
Do you hate minikeys?

Both the 6 and 12 have aftertouch - I've made use of it in some of the other videos in this series. The 6 lacks the WiFi support though.

I've yet to find someone who ships this to brazil, nowhere on national stores here
Aw man, that's a bummer. Perhaps get in touch with Behringer directly and ask what their plans are?
I need a button on my belt that plays a sample of you saying ‘coool.’ Otherwise how are people going to know how cool stuff is?
