One thing I love about the WASP that rarely gets a mention is the fact that it has a pair of outputs at the back that work simultaneously which means you can put a stereo chorus on one (I like the TC Electric June-60 Mk2 for this) and use the other output straight into your mixer. Pan the stereo chorus hard left and hard right and run the dry output in the centre and you get a great, big, fat chonky, swooshy, chorusy basslines. Noice *click*
The extra out put is the same, its just for low impedance and the fist one is for high impedance so its not actually stereo. It's actually great to send a dry signal with the low and send the hi to a FX pedal lineup of your choice
@@artificium_ no because one is Lo gainand less than half the volume of the other. By increasing the volume of the other one you would have a huge noise floor difference between the two channels. This is not stereo. You would be better running it into a mono desk and sending auxiliaries to your effects
@@sonicalstudios they weren't talking about it being inherently stereo, they made it stereo by panning the output they put through the chorus. then they used the other output as a dry signal. what they did was valid while maybe a little jank because yes the noise floor and it would show on the low impedence output
@@artificium_ yes I know as I metion that previously. I was just stating what he forgot to mention just so people don't go buying one thinking there is a stereo output.
This is the best case of explaining exactly why the Wasp works like it does, that I've seen. I really love it and will never sell, but I found it a bit hard to handle and get my head around. But after this, I understand why. Great job!
Thank you. I totally see what you mean about it being more useful as a sound processor. Seems pretty straightforward on the left side of it. Then total nuances on the right side. There can be some amazing combinations with other synths. Plus this one is pretty affordable to begin with. Definitely on the wishlist.
28:00 Thank god you said it, I have been wondering if I could sync my Wasp via my daw or something I've had it for 3 years or so but barely used it because of this..
This isn’t exactly unheard of for mono synths. Normally note tracking is only good for 3-5 octaves and playing outside of that range isn’t (usually) musically useful. In this case it’s a little odd because the wasp’s oscillators are digital, but I guess justifiable because the original only had 37 keys and MIDI hadn’t been invented yet.
This was the first synth I ever played as a kid in the 70's, my dad had one. I recently got a Behringer one for a £100 which is crazy. it's basic but it's very useful, I've been using it a lot 👍

Absolutely amazing. I think I understood synthesis better from your demo than from dozens of hours of dedicated tutorials Subscribed immediatelly
Just got this today and after this video some things I was confused on make sense ! Great vid man. Subscribe!
Amazing tutorial 💙💛
About to pick up a used WASP.. these videos are always so well detailed and informational. Thanks for putting it together.
Thank you! :)

This was excellent man! Needed a refresh on this synth! 🤘🐝🐀
Thanks for a really good walk through. Respect!

Excellent video, thank you for making this
Thanks!
Great video!
Thank you !
Great review thankyou. I absolutely love my Behringer Wasp. Soooooooooooooo fat bass and a great addition to my setup 👌👍
Good video.. I built a Wasp and this clarifies some of it's idiosyncrasies that I thought were issues with my build like the portamento thing lol
Pretty dope for drones. Stick an analogue delay, wet reverb and any other grimy fx and you are well into la-la landa
Many thanks got some headscrubs on that lfo now I can do it right
mine has the double trigger problem .sounds great but the synth has problems
Return to seller for exchange or contact Musictribe for warranty repair.
same here, hoping behringer will help fix my unit
There's a fix you can do yourself if you are okay with soldering. Very cheap and very easy
@@andyturner3056 never done it before. any guides online how to , specifically for the fix on this unit?
its out or warranty i got it day one just never used it much
@@produktaudio
What do you mean it has only 37 key range? Like literally it won't play anything above or below?
Correct.. but you use the octave switch on the oscillators to move bass to high pitch
This isn’t exactly unheard of for mono synths. Normally note tracking is only good for 3-5 octaves and playing outside of that range isn’t (usually) musically useful.
In this case it’s a little odd because the wasp’s oscillators are digital, but I guess justifiable because the original only had 37 keys and MIDI hadn’t been invented yet.
woah
Just get the Bass Station ii!! thanks for the video
I don’t know, $150 is hard to pass up

Why? It is a different beast!
It should be called an enve-loop- generator
I go one the other day and it sounds horrible nothing like yours in the vid i amd using a keystep and headphones.
It should sound the same, make sure yours isnt broken somehow
My Midi input = kaput...
For real? Or did you found a soultion? Because Mine ist Not reacting to Midi Signals too.
Did you check the back to see which channel you're using? Tiny little white switches, manual has the implementation chart
PLAY THEM WITH A KEYBOARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!
