My bet is that with all the knowledge they get from all their clones, they will be able some good original synths, including polyphonics, in the next years.
Make a unit called the electron, make it a drum machine with a bunch of effects with a sequencer that can control the neutron and electron. 1 electron 1 neutron and 1 proton. The Behringer Deuterium
Have the Neutron since years , it‘s a really nice machine . But the Proton with the sub oscillators , dual filter etc. really impressed me . Will pair it with the Neutron .
1-shot LFOs are something we don’t see often enough - and doubly useful here with the patching. You can add a little extra punch without tying up an envelope
Nice! This thing along with 4-5 supporting eurorack modules guarantees you a very capable system. Sounds much more stable and beefy than the Neutron for sure. There has never been a better time to get into modular.
@@i-a-i Well this thing does lack a sample and hold which is pretty weird considering the other features but oh well. Definitely a module that has some randomness, maybe a dedicated sample and hold module or something bigger like a Mutable Marbles. Some effects module that you like would be cool. I'd always add a Maths to this, or the Behringer Abacus which is basically a Maths. This will give you more modulation as well as general utilities like slew, attenuverters etc.
@@i-a-iBehringer itself has interesting modules in its catalogue, some clones, as has already been said... I would definitely also add an effects module like Space efx, an abacus, a sampler module like Chaos and one or two complex oscillator modules like Brains or Victor. Also at Behringer you can find various modules at economical prices which include more LFO, S&H, ADSR and other interesting stuff. little by little an interesting system will emerge, at least to start without spending the entire bank account.😊
@@i-a-i I started with a Neutron, picked up a NiftyBundle and quickly started adding modules. If I had to start over, I'd probably stick with the NiftyCase (I got the bundle on sale, but quickly stopped relying on Chipz & Cellz for much) and go with Pamela's Pro Workout as my first module. It's good for all sorts of things, from generative sequencing to Euclidian patterns to modulation to basic clocking and more. Squarp Rample remains as one of my go-to modules, and you can use Pam's to drive it. I use Ochd and its expander paired with Tesseract's Polar8 (three more of my earliest purchases) for extensive modulation, but that might be overkill early on if Neutron and/or Proton were your only euro-compatible synths.
Instruo/DivKid Ochd: 8 separate triangle wave LFOs at different rates. Knob with cv control, for frequency of all of them at once. I use it on every single patch i make, it’s great for giving a little life to various parameters. In-line attenuvertors: these are little attenuvertors that go between an output and input. Several different kinds out there, much less expensive than buying attenuvertors for your rack (though those can be nice from a usability standpoint of course) Some kind of voltage and trig sequencers, preferably multi-channel. I like Steppy, Voltage Block, and Muxlicer for wild ideas (Muxlicer does all kinds of stuff, check out DivKid’s video about it). Pitch quantizer of some kind. So useful, for turning voltage into music. Will second a Pamela’s module. I set mine up with the expander, various subdivided clocks and synced LFOs, and just leave it like that.
At last! This is the quality stuff that really makes Behringer one of the best synth manufacturers, the ORIGINAL designs,the truly innovative stuff that's doing what no other synth does. This as an expander for any semi-modular synth, such as an Arturia MiniBrute 2, would be unbeatable.
The sub oscillators add some serious heft to the sound. Very nice. I am hoping it isn't as easy to knock out of tune as the Neutron. It is a touch fussy, Breath on the knobs and it goes out.
@@PatternRecognitionMusic Yes, Waldorf has something like that as well, but it would be nice if it was the exact same size as these units and with a Behringer price tag.
@@SPL-6 I don't see getting much lower in price for a decent keybed, power supply, rails, etc. NiftyKeyz is 112hp, you're only looking at 32hp extra space, easy to fill with either a blank or a couple of good modules to extend the functionality without adding a crazy amount of bulk.
The small knobs seem really unfortunate. I love the Neutron and adding even an LFO would have made it perfect. The addition of a filter the retrig on the envelopes. The AR the two vca’s the two attenuators. It’s a lot of really useful stuff. The subs as well. Just not sure about the ergonomics.
I have tons of empty rack space I could use, but I do like the tilt angles of the behringer 3 unit stands. Much more ergonomic than just straight up. I may eventually have to use regular rack space if Behringer keeps coming out with tasty $300 modules. Thx for the network rack suggestion. If I run out of regular rack space I may get a tall one.
Wow, more of THIS please! Sounds awesome, and original design too. You say it’s paraphonic, so not duophonic (2-voice polyphonic) with those two filters?
Now that there are two synths with the "Moffat" filter out, can we *please* have service manuals, so when these things start going bad we don't have to reverse engineer them to try to work out why? Might work out why it's more prone to oscillation at high frequencies like at 9:23 too, I can't be the only one who ends up notching the top end of Neutron recordings because of how it likes to stick there and ring. Still a great filter.
Well from what I can see the resonanse is cranked past 1pm which pretty much guarantees oscillation on my Matriarch as well as two of my Eurorack filters.
@@sergoz123 Nah, if you have a Neutron you'll know what I'm talking about. You can set it so it's fairly resonant but not oscillating in mid-range frequencies, and it will oscillate at higher frequencies. On many synths you can observe the resonance is not equal for every frequency, but on the Neutron (and I guess Proton too if it's the same), it's generally more resonant towards higher frequencies. A quirk I'd like to understand. Knob positions aren't gonna be the same between synths.
You save the world! Doing the Lord’s work! No one is more amazing! Poor kids everywhere are rejoicing! We are all blessed beyond belief!!! Uli for World President!!!
Go Behringer! I currently own 7 Behringer synths and cant wait to get my hands on this beauty. Thankyou for making the world of synthesis a lot more accessible at a great price! ❤🎹
I'm curious about how that waveshaper is routed. In Buchla-inspired designs, usually, only the "final" output is sent to the waveshaper. I guess it's the same here?
I really hope the MIDI to CV converter and Assign output work the same as the Neutron because they are *_perfectly_* matched to the Roland AE-30 Aerophone Pro wind synth! I've asked before and I'll ask again... please make a Eurorack module out of the Neutron's MIDI to CV converter. Remember to include the same pitch bend response and the Assign output for aftertouch. [and before anyone comments - no, the CM1A *doesn't* do this!]
So in 2024 for 400 dollars you get a USB sound machine where DAW CAN'T control main knobs via CC midi? While in this day in age every knob should independently control every parameter with PROTON you get a modwheel and some "Assign outs". Apart of that everything is cool. Just remember pushing the REC button every time you go play with it.
Not looking for this particular synth or any other subtractive mono, but have to admit that it sounds and looks considerably nicer than the predecessor (at least from the demos). Original was already OK for production or just noodling. Don't need such synth at the moment, but might look in the future (if I resurrect my synth-minimal projects)
Why are the attentuators for the sub osc's backwards? Also thanks for not including a pre-wired distortion and delay in this one (patching around them was a pain).
As much as I want one….. out of the 2 superpartners in Ontario , there’s very little behringer synths in stock. The last few things I’ve ordered have taken 6-9 months to arrive. I’ve ordered an Edge 5 months ago, and I’ve never actually seen it ‘in stock’ online. Behringer…. Uli….. if you don’t put units in stores, how do you expect me to buy them?
I don't think the UB-Xa D is a standard euro form factor - looks like maybe 5u, while the Neutron, Proton and others in this form factor are 3u x 80hp. The commonality is the UB-Xa D comes with rack ears and Behringer offers rack ears for their euro format modules.

Finally, hell yes! Just what my Neutrons "need". Together, they would be "Deuterium". A different, third synth should be designed, and call it "Electronico" so it doesn't sound too much like a certain company's name. Anyone with all three synths would have an "Atomus".
For someone that is new to sound design on a semi modular synth, anyone have an opinion on the difference in learning curve between the Proton and the Spice?
No continious midi control for the filter frequency knobs? Why are there are so much sysex commands only for fixed values??? So how much parameters can you actually controll via midi if theres only a few cc?

Okay. This thing is serious.
Loving the sound and the intro music that was created on it. Character, depth, edge.
Great melodic demo 06:00, let the Proton sings very nice
Sounds like Depeche Mode - Enjoy The Silence minus some notes
Next, a polyphonic version. That will be a killer synth for the ages.
It would need a push button mod matrix or some type of digital patch bay as regular CV + gate patching would be impractical
Buy a couple and polychain in SynthTribe
I second that, but please, NOT LESS than 12 voices (24 oscillators) plus all the features AND at least 3-4 audiorange LFOs.
