Behringer Poly D

If one are after the legendary sound of the 70?s and 80?s this is the best path to take,..I once owned and played Minimoog Model D from 1978, until i lost it ina tragically happening,..in 97?Now! It is late 2020 and my dreams came true to touch the sound and connect with a real Analog instrument again that really nails the fat, gritty, silky sound of The Mini. I really recommend The Poly D,...ohh i forgot, it got all midi you need, it is monophonic, paraphonic, and 4 voice Polyphonic,..wich means it can sounds like a MemmoryMoog alike when you need it so,....well built metal and wood,..no plastic,..Love it, Thank you Thomann, Thank You Uli Behringer... Now Go and get a classic ;D

This is by far my favourite subtractive synth. The improvements made by Behringer are awesome. Poly Glide - Yes. Round robin - Yes. Sequencer - Yes. Aftertouch - Yes. Juno style chorus - Yes. Distortion - Yes.
Well built and looks great this synth can and will deliver what you need and more. From screaming mono leads to wonderful soft polyphonic pads it sounds great.
Only downside is that the polyphony kind of wonks up the envelope unless you press all notes simultaneously. If you press 3 notes and then the fourth the trigger will be instant regardless of envelope setting. But that is what multitracking was invented for ;-)

Well. Maybe not a dream machine. That would be a MemoryMoog clone, but when this one was announced, it ticked enough boxes to make a decision to acquire one. And it did not disappoint. The combination of the raw analog sound together with modern MIDI and the built-in arpeggiator and sequencer, the fourth oscillator and the chorus section, makes this a very competent synth. The only lame complaint I have, is that SynthTribe, formerly known as SynthTool, doesn't exist as a Linux application, like the X-Air UI does. But I have a Mac, so it wasn't impossible to do the firmware upgrade and to change the midi-sync, so it could slave to my drum machine.
