Deadmaus’ arpeggiated progression is great, but your patch and the way you modulate it gives the tune urgency and takes me on a journey. Gets better every time I listen. ❤️
Excellent. I've one arriving tomorrow. I'm an old school piano, Rhodes, Hammond, guitar player and recording engineering thingie - but recently the synth thing has hit me as a chance to reinvigorate my creativity. It looks a ton of fun too...
I ALWAYS enjoy your videos. I appreciate your straight forwardness, light heartedness, and still refer back to all your video tutorials on newer synths I have purchased in recent years. Thank you for ALL you do! (This is QUITE nice!!)
@@StarskyCarr Dunno, but royalty free and he made it... nonetheless, I've kept Chimaera in my Ableton Places for years and remains the go-to for exploring synth presets and such. Hard to beat. My own stuff bores me! lol
In addition to being a great video, what I also appreciate is your placement of the ads. This is probably the most the least interruptive ads experience I have seen on a video. It's much appreciated.
Just over a year ago and being a bedroom guitarist for many years I stumbled upon one of your synth reviews and while not starting me on my synth interest it definitely accelerated me down the rabbit hole of which I happily fell, so now having a better understanding of how subtractive synth work it makes watching this so much more enjoyable and impressive. Knowing now how the sound is being produced ie filter envelopes cut off resonance lfos etc make it even more enjoyable .. long may you continue.. 👏👍
Damn you. I just bought 10 (yes 10) pieces of musical equipment in 2 weeks and had successfully convinced myself that should be enough for restarting making music. I was eyeing the 2600 as well but decided thatI have really enough gear now and should start rtfm the existing pieces. But now after listening to this I need this one as well.That is just such an amazing sound. So instead of a groove box, 1 synth and a small keyboard I am now equipped with 2 tables full of hardware synths I really have no clue yet how to use. But I am happy...
Oh also, I highly recommend you take notes on programming and patches using Microsoft Onenote. Put all the digital instruction manuals in there too. It's a great app that can refresh your memory quick if you forget how to do something.
yep that satisfies the craving. on the shopping list since last year but after hearing it today...its on the top of the list . The sound is beautiful. Thank you.
Starsky, absolute belter of a 2600 demo. Loved it. Like others, your videos help us at SOUND7 inform much of our synth purchases. These clones are nailing it. Keep going!
The 2600 is an amazing audio work surface. It’s more about playing the synth than playing the keyboard. It was built for Arps, bass and lead and then the cooler stuff for patch kids.
I have a vision of an unkempt, unshaven, dishevelled Starsky emerging from his B2600 bunker in a years time with a grin that makes the Joker jealous 😂👍👍
Hell yeah!!!! I've been looking so forward to this vid!! Sounds incredible, the beginning could have been on an Orbital album or something!! Amazing, thanks for posting!!
Brilliant demo', well done.. I am really happy you got this one. The sounds that you are making, brings back a lot of memories to me... for certain reasons. Have a great week, stay safe out there. Cheers.
I even sometimes write stuff with softsynths then fire the MIDi to hardware to record all the sweet tweaking loveliness :) just fine exactly that with my Prophet 600 using Repro5 at first. The track I’ll feature in my upcoming Prophet 609 vid was created like that.
You're talking about performing. That's the thing... you CAN do that. You can even do it on your soft synths in Ableton if you map their functionality to controllers and record the automation. Just keep performing the song and then put together the best bits.
The 4012 filter "does it" for me! I have mine patched into my 'small sound system' (being a former FOH engineer who owned a sound company), using a pair of 'Renkus-Heinz' 12" two way 300W (each) powered speakers bi-amped with two subs - EV design "Thiele" TL-606 subs w/ EV-15L speakers. ( and yes - I have no neighbors close by me either.) I have wanted to get an ARP 2600 since first hearing this fantastic synth when it first came out. Now, I have it - with the B2600 - and have "paired" it with the Pittsburgh Modular SV-1b. (Talk about "slammin' low end")! Love it! Thank you for your videos! Much appreciated!
Did I detect the Nosedive midsection in Part 1 there? Literally my favorite chord progression. 👍 I just purchased the Behringer 2600 Gray Meanie yesterday --- it's my first hardware synth ever, after working with software synths for years. I'm so excited to explore the sonic opportunities!
@@StarskyCarr it’s not much but I just wanted to give you a nod of thanks, this video was the reason I bought a BARP. It’s just a genius little combination of some beautiful music with a beautiful instrument and you’re clearly loving making it. A perfect example of why electronic music is awesome. A job well done sir
Had mine for about two weeks now and still scratching on the surface, but love it so far ... it can produce some monster sounds as heard in this exquisite demo.
That gritty and smooth Juice from the osc en filtrer are lovely, i love odyssey hardware replica too and the software version from arturia too, but this 2600 is really another beast, for making progressive filtered sequence on trance music it's a must have.
Yeah it wasn’t something I was thinking about at the time. A few of my patrons asked for one so I created a walkthrough as part of my tutorial series on Patreon.
Just lovely. Is it me or was this tracked thru an old Neve? I track most of my synths thru an old pair and feel like I recognize that same crusty midrange saturation here. In any case, sweet sequences and I appreciate the sensitive touch!
Thanks for stopping by... I'm quite a fan of your plugins, and have lusted after some of your hardware for years:) This does have a gritty quality, but not because of a Neve... it's just the right side of a little bit dirty. I tried to keep the signal path as clean as possible to get the raw sound in the demos.
@@StarskyCarr We're in a mutual admiration society then, your vids have informed half my synth purchases in the past few years :-) This one is extra impressive, the modern reissues and clones I have here always need a bit of love from an actual old circuit to get this level of vibe. Please feel free to hit me up thru kush support anytime, I'd love to to round out your plugin collection as a thanks for the killer content!

… I keep coming back to this video… these are insanely addictive sounds / patches and arp sequences ❤️
Deadmaus’ arpeggiated progression is great, but your patch and the way you modulate it gives the tune urgency and takes me on a journey. Gets better every time I listen. ❤️
This synth just sounds amazing in the right hands. It's a steal for what theyre asking for it.
This video is in my bookmarks since 1 year. I think i watch it every 2 months. The 3 first minutes are awesome.
Love that filter. When it slowly opens up... it makes my scalp tingle every time. Well played Mr Carr 🤏🏼
This makes me want one of these things more than any other demo I've seen. Just wonderful
I keep coming back to this. Such mind-melting sounds!

Dude, I use deadmau5’s midi arps to explore new synths too. Such a sweet resource. Thx for giving us this reference!
Not sure if the license allows me to mention him.. so left to those in the know ;)
@@StarskyCarr Dunno, but royalty free and he made it... nonetheless, I've kept Chimaera in my Ableton Places for years and remains the go-to for exploring synth presets and such. Hard to beat. My own stuff bores me! lol
Are you referring to Xfer Cthulu?
I’ve been meaning to give that a try.
@@AdamsBrew78 def worth it for both fun and learning from a master
@argiope where can I find these midi files?
Behringer hit the ball straight out of the park with this one. I'm so glad I have one and can follow along :)
Snagged the Odyssey and plan on pairing it with one of these as well
I broke the like button :) This is massive. Amazing video. Didn't know this clone sounded this great. Thanks alot !
Well that was delightful. Sitting here surrounded by an array of incredible synthesizers and feeling like a need another on now haha. Gorgeous!
In addition to being a great video, what I also appreciate is your placement of the ads. This is probably the most the least interruptive ads experience I have seen on a video. It's much appreciated.
Bravo. Part of making such great patches is really knowing and understanding the instrument
Some great sounds here dude. This is about at the top of my "when I can afford it" list! :D
that big arpeggio patch is fucking gorgeous. incredible work here, by far the best behringer arp2600 demo out there. thank you for this

Wow, what an amazing demo. It really makes me cry, because of this beautyful sequences. Today I ordered one of this synth.
Yes the sequences are very catchy and meaningful. You might like some of Deadmau5 tunes (4ware) or Tron Legacy arpeggios...
Damn you. I just bought 10 (yes 10) pieces of musical equipment in 2 weeks and had successfully convinced myself that should be enough for restarting making music.

there's something we call GAS in the biz. lol
GAS attack? I'm in the middle of one, and I can't find the Andrews!
Just start with the most complex piece and work your way down.

I have the ODDY and I concur. It is not the original. Behringer has its own sound, and it is different, but it sounds great.
Ya, the original sounds darker and has a bit more detail in the high end resonance (to my ears at least)
Starsky raving brilliant! Never get sick of this demo!
The 2600 is an amazing audio work surface. It’s more about playing the synth than playing the keyboard.
It was built for Arps, bass and lead and then the cooler stuff for patch kids.
Mine should arrive today. I’m so excited!!! I love your video; I’ve watched it several times already.
The cool thing is that one of the original desingers of that original machine was also working on that behringer clone.

I just love real synths,modular or otherwise, writing the midi in Ableton then running them back through the synths and tweaking is so satisfying.

I want this synth badly but I came long ago for the review, since then, I always come and put it on for your insane musical journey dude! Thank you!
amazing arps starts at 3:28....Lost Frequencies ...here we come.... Thanks Starsky...you made me fall in love with this piece

What a beast. Not to mention at a price lower than some eurorack modules. Killer demo and great melodies thanks for sharing!

That third patch "Duo Mode v2" mwah, absolutely sold it for me. Such range from soft'n'sweet to gritty and in your face.
Im a newbe with this lovely synth
It blows my mind when i see your patches and controls 😮
This first track,,, you better release that on Spotify! Thats 🔥
Not just a great demo but also really great tune
2:54 sounded awesome to me man. As did this whole video! Love it mate ✌🏻
Deadmau5 is such a hero... His progression are so incredible. Great there are midifiles floating around to use for things like these patches
No
@@purelucknoskill5158 yes
Thank you for this video demo. It has shown me what a powerful and beautiful sounding synth this really is.
HUGE and lovely sounds, I can't wait for mine to arrive! Thanks for the lessons!
Some great stuff. Black Friday is tomorrow and the Blue Marvin is on my short list. Excited!
Best I've heard of this synth.... top work.
So impressive !!! thx for making this ..
A very awesome synth. This is the type of instrument that will take years to find out all the sweet spots.
6:55 that’s lovely and very clever.
it as an absolut pleasure to here that sound. Great melody for a greate Synth. Thank you
11:10 right here is when you convinced me. I now have to add this to my mother 32, roland JU-06A and behringer wasp.
This is f...ck`n awesome...;-) really, really good. In combination with the sequences, arp`s and FX an absolute dream. Thanks for sharing...
Really nice ! When I studied at Berklee, we had 2 original 2600’s ( knobs and patch chords ) . Loved playing with it.
there's something really tweak able about it once you've got a sequence or arpeggio up and running.
3:34 very decent build up, love the sound and progressions
Best B2600 sound demo on here...wow....
Sounds so great and it seems you have as much fun with this beast as I do ;-)
one word and that word is "luuuuush" OMG im a sucker for that dreamy synth Deadmau5 sound
Great video - only small complaint - it would have been good if you'd used multi coloured patch cables to make it easier to trace what you were doing!
Yeah it wasn’t something I was thinking about at the time. A few of my patrons asked for one so I created a walkthrough as part of my tutorial series on Patreon.
Duo Mode v2 patch is tremendous! Very impressed with this video. She will be mine!
beautiful demo 👌
this brings the behringer 2600 quite high on my list of "want to have" hardware synthesizers 😁
lovely demo !! Sounds so good on my speakers! Thanks you for sharing this!
big up from Austria. You find the right words :)
