Behringer Neutron unboxing & demo

[@jackpijjin4088]

I'm glad I finally get to see/ hear this thing in the hands of somebody who knows what they're doing and is creative enough to explore its abilities. Great video as always, Mr. Paolo.

[@SynthManiaDotCom]

Way too kind, thanks, Jack!

[@jeremymccray459]

I didn’t think it was possible for someone to do a demo on this and actually give us what we wanted to see and here but I just found it. Great video

[@tron944]

Listening through some ok headphones and I can hear those LOWs, I'm very impressed by the sound and as always YOU ARE the leading authority in synths. Thank you !!!!

[@Josec823]

I thought exactly the same, if it sounds that fat through the cheap Sony earbuds I use with my iPad, it must make your teeth fillings rattle through real monitors.

[@georginikolov1141]

It does open doors on monitors very fat synth

[@2112jonr]

Nick Batt made the same comment about disturbing the neighbours! Sounds like a very hefty bottom end :)

[@kgreggbruce1552]

tron944: you are the leading authority in synths AutomaticGainsay: hold my beer

[@ThePacratz]

After watching your video several times, I bought one. I love it!

[@SynthManiaDotCom]

Glad you like it!

[@TROGULAR10000]

Most straightforward intro video I've seen on this and nice jam at the end further demonstrating the sounds. Thanks!

[@Abossow77]

yep. that does it. 10:05 made me get one myself. great video, mate!

[@dillipphunbar7924]

Can't believe you waited 2 months to unbox this. A few minutes in and have already learnt more about the neutron. I recently got one but I am a complete noob so steep learning curve ahead. Videos like this are very helpful. Thank you.

[@SynthManiaDotCom]

Thank you, Dillip

[@steveturner1815]

Best vid of this product I’ve seen and the only actual musical one

[@SynthManiaDotCom]

Steve, thank you very much

[@TheNimaid]

Agreed! The other videos definitely showed how it could make spaceship noises, but not actually how to use it or if it sounded good for less experimental voices. This is the video that finally caused me to pull the trigger and buy one.

[@boyracer3000]

Looks like you had a lot of fun with this. Loved the playing at the end! Thank you!

[@jodo985]

Damn Paulo!! It’s you that makes the neutron shine. Awesome review

[@davidjohn5791]

Fantastic track Paul, best I have heard played with the Behringer Neutron on KZbin. Thanks.🙂

[@amundbisgaard7295]

Very helpful, actually the most enjoyable video on the Neutron for me, and I've seen a few. Quite a few good ones too. Informative, creative and tasteful.

[@iqi616]

Great video. I still can't get over how similar it sounds to my ancient Clef B30 Microsynth, just cleaner and more capable (and not in need of refurbishment). Love that filter's tone.

[@farben_]

The demo song is just amazing, hard to believe all the sounds came from the Neutron given how varied and distinct they are. The delay sounds rough and noisy though.

[@artghoul2436]

10:05 Just made me so happy I have one of these being shipped to me! Thank you. Such a badass beast!!

[@martythevampire1]

Awesome demo Paulo. I really wasn’t sure about this from a lot of the demos I’ve heard online but this simply sounds great!

[@SynthManiaDotCom]

Marty, thanks!

[@numptification]

This is why I love KZbin - videos like this. Thank you.

[@SynthManiaDotCom]

Thank you

[@valdiskrebs566]

Nice sounds toward the end, like the paraphonic mode - good demo and song!

[@StillnessManifesto]

Finally a good review (probably the best at the moment on youtube?!) for this awesome and budget friendly analog synth 🙌 Thank you!

[@disectormusic]

your demos are always on point no fuss

[@ConwayBob]

Thanks for a great review/demo, SynthMania. You know, at around 12:19 where you introduce that "hipass" sound, I at first read that as "hip-ass" instead of "hi-pass" -- but now I'm thinking that BOTH of those interpretations work just fine. That's a hip-ass little synth!

[@koji505]

Thanks Pablo great Video !!! Thanks for the great demo. I cant wait to buy me a Neutron because it sounds great!

[@vegettoblue8705]

This synth is badass , you can have from it almost every timbre . For the price is awesome , def worth it

[@A_S_M_R]

The improv at 9:50 struck at the very core of my being!

[@tangibleblockofwisdom6386]

Ditto, Beautiful. Little descent part reminds me of this repetitive motif in game of thrones they use for a character

[@osirismaximus2787]

Love the funky song at the end!

[@DadoSimicStudiostriver]

Finally someone who playing damn thing. Great demo.

[@BrokenArrowSchoolofModernMusic]

OK this was unexpected. This guy is getting better Sounds out of this than any other commentator that I’ve seen on KZbin and that includes the guys from loopop and sonic state. Lol. Very usable. This guy should be making presets for mpc or something.

[@LouisSerieusement]

it sounds surprisingly great and awesome, I'm truly astonished, only 300 bucks :o !! What a personnality, it's well designed and the sound is modern, thick and metalic but not in the bad way like in arturia synth XD I'm sure people that do hardcore music or industrial techno will like it really much ; thank you !!

[@SynthManiaDotCom]

OrangePeak, thanks!

[@aptudo]

I share your astonishment. I own multiple synths and I watch MANY synth videos. It's a unique and worthy instrument at any price. Powerful sound and an experimenter's dream.

[@BboySalamon]

Excellent Spacesynth, thanks a lot Paolo! That alien's cry is so beautiful!

[@SynthManiaDotCom]

Sal, thanks, the sine waves on the Neutron sound awesome

[@danieldemayo6209]

That bit around 9:50 was cool! Pretty mean sounding.

[@Bmach03]

My Word! Sold!

[@toitoitoy]

that would be a great melody

[@danieldemayo6209]

toitoitoy I dig stuff like that as well!

[@dreamsandpromises5564]

I listened w headphones several times. it was like an epic sci-fi with one hell of a plot twist

[@darkwraithcovenantindustries]

Straight out of an Italian Horror film.

[@MakingMadBeats]

10:12 madness! 🔥🙏

[@BikaVvllt]

muse

[@stephenmurphywilson7294]

Thoroughly enjoyed your playing.

[@SynthManiaDotCom]

Thank you

[@G-zero07]

Nice video as usual, keep up the good work!

[@amundbisgaard7295]

In particular, I enjoyed how you bothered to demonstrate those bass lines, and not just some random, mind less, exhaustive compilation of what each knob does.

[@WADstephen]

the video quality is so crisp. I can taste it

[@ElectronicazMusic]

Great demo. I love my Neutron sounds so solid.

[@SynthManiaDotCom]

Thank you

[@DavidSheltonKCDJUnique]

I love it,Beautiful sounds.

[@cultofours2648]

great song at the end! really massaging my brain right now.

[@SynthManiaDotCom]

:^)

[@onkelberra3166]

Best review so far on the Neutron. Btw... I'm waiting for the metall!! ;)

[@SynthManiaDotCom]

Lol, thanks, metal is coming !

[@DonSolaris]

Hey Paolo!!! I like that intro with the mighty rack in the background!!! Now that is *the rack*!

[@SynthManiaDotCom]

Hey, Don! Yeah, I went "rack-less" starting 2008 and sold almost all modules, and now, ten years later I'm rebuilding again :-D lol

[@mau5chords874]

That jawn is JUICY!

[@djilyaz]

Behringer has some seriously awesome stuff coming out. sh-101 clone, 808 clone, vocoder, a ton of stuff, its a good time to be a musician

[@jaylow759]

Absolutely fantastic demo, thanks for not using FX. I'm looking into buying one, but waiting for some good 2nd hand deal. The bass is so fat on this thing... Does anyone know if reverb/delay on this thing is analog too?

[@geoffk777]

I actually like this much more than the Behrenger Model D, because it has some unique and original sounds of its own. You could do something genuinely interesting with it, and that should be what synthesis is all about.

[@qualiauniverse638]

Fantastic review! I'm buying one.

[@SynthManiaDotCom]

Thank you!

[@kek23k]

Lovely stuff, gonna have to pick one of these up next year along with the D :)

[@mitchelldunaway]

Ah, yes. The Hip Ass Sound.

[@raze7x]

some crazy sounds and very nice song!

[@SynthManiaDotCom]

raze, thanks!

[@Nicolas.S]

Super video! I really don't want to get into modular, but it's tempting... must resist... aargh...

[@SyntheticFuture]

Awesome video and demonstration. Next time lock the focus though, no need to have focus anywhere but on the Neutron :)

[@SynthManiaDotCom]

Thanks! Yeah, this lens is a little bit on the "ballerina" side - has problems autofocusing when the aperture is wide

[@SanplerVarondaro]

muy bueno bro saludos desde Baja California

[@madmac66]

Don’t stop now don’t ya know I’ll never let ya go, don’t go.....

[@SynthManiaDotCom]

:^)

[@zpinkLondonBelow]

Very nice demo, Sir! Yeah, I know I'm late to the party here ;-)

[@orlandomarinjr]

I'm just learning about all this stuff thanks for the video. For $100 less I can get the Module D. Is the Module D more for just Moog bass stuff where as this is more diverse? I'll just get this one if it does all the Module D does and more. Thanks bro

[@NewYorkRawVideos]

[@nelsonribeiro3690]

📌 Dude : ... from faaaar ... the best demonstration of that amazing synthesizer ( that i have too ) !!! Simple and objective ; congratulations !!! 🕉 🎹 🇮🇱

[@MrDbelisario96]

Pure Pro-One vibes from the end song. Speaking of I can't wait for their Pro-One clone.

[@georginikolov1141]

Me too not sold on tge model d hate moog need pro 1 to partnership with neutron

[@Dr_Satan]

I kept waiting for you to break into Yazoo's Don't Go, but it never happened :(

[@SynthManiaDotCom]

If you do covers on KZbin, you get demonetized - so, unless I aim at doing a tutorial for a particular song (like showing how to play "Gypsy Woman" or "What Is Love" etc., I try to avoid playing other people's famous material. I try to post original content.

[@angeyoda]

Thanks god :)

[@TROGULAR10000]

I don't understand the S&H section. Is it like a separate LFO with only S&H shape? What does it modulate?

[@lambertlambert7076]

Finally, there is a demo of this synth with somebody knowing how to play the keyboard. Enough with boring nerds launching boring sequences, or only tweaking knobs with no playing.

[@mikeexits]

I don't like seeing people bash and talk down on other creators. :/ Whatever happened to "different strokes for different folks?"

[@johntammaro]

Even the improvised tunes are catchy. How do you make them up? Are you simply playing the notes of a chosen scale or do you have more complexity involved in the note/chord selection ?

[@SynthManiaDotCom]

For these quick demos I just improvise on top of a sequence of chords

[@onlytiesto1]

Synthmania which one should i get for electronic music (EDM, mostly deep house, progressive and so on) purpouses, NEUTRON or MODEL D? i can buy both in the future but for now which one first?

[@SynthManiaDotCom]

I'd get the Neutron as first - a bit more flexibility for those types of sounds

[@lardosian]

sounds great, have you tried any of the dreadbox synths from greece, similar semi modular seventies sounding synths.

[@SynthManiaDotCom]

I haven't had the occasion to try a Dreadbox yet, hopefully soon.

[@redirishmanxlt]

Sweet lead @8:08! How does this compare sonically to the SH-101?

[@krowus3833]

I have a question. If the neutron and its midi / gate output are to be inserted into the v/oct of the oscillator, it would work?

[@edrosa3485]

Thank you so much for this. I’ve been intrigued by the Nutron but that intimidating patch bay and the fact that my Behringer Model D is the only synth in my setup (about 6 total) I’ve not truly bonded with. Will need to look and see if you have a similar vid for the Boog. I went looking through all your videos and shockingly noticed no Korg MS20! Any particular reason? The song was gorgeous BTW. You REALLY need a Bandcamp page.

[@SynthManiaDotCom]

Thank you, Ed, yeah, no particular reason, just buying and selling over the years, I've had the MS20, like the other classic ones, the Odyssey, the Source, etc. but sold them, eventually would like to get them again although I'm on a digital tip right now

[@leftmono1016]

ed rosa - the MS20's filters put all others to shame!! Amazing synth imho. I've just got myself a Doepfer Wasp Filter which is the only other thing I've found with such a distinct character.

[@solaryzer]

Super demo .

[@SynthManiaDotCom]

SJ, thanks,

[@therealjackfisher]

Interesting synth. Looks impressive with that big patch bay. I am a complete noob to all synths.. For now im going to experiment with my soft synths because to me everything that is synth is one big weirdo.

[@kaazan1]

nice demo !!!!

[@nikmcd4559]

Great video thanks. I recently bought the neutron and I am really happy with it. With absolutely no musical talent whatsoever, I was really happy to see your demo. How do you like the v2 update? Would be great if you posted another video demonstrating the new features. Please and thank you.

[@TheVoltar100]

Sorry but I don’t have a sound on my speakers to connect my Neutron with my sound card via a TRS cable!

[@sleepyjessie]

At around 10:10 is that clipping-like sound just an accident when recording or is it coming from the synth?

[@SynthManiaDotCom]

Clipping in recording

[@5argetech56]

I call it the Jimmy Neutron :)

[@TallesDiCunto]

10:00 and on: amazing line!

[@SynthManiaDotCom]

Thanks!

[@johnduffy7108]

Minted..the tune sounds like a tv detective show from the sixties.....

[@SynthManiaDotCom]

Thanks, John,

[@Josec823]

Rather the eighties. Sixties detectives shows would be all surf guitars and brass sections.

[@nycimagery]

So coool!!

[@fjfrancois]

Which is better for buying, the Roland SE-02 or the Neutron, thanks.

[@SynthManiaDotCom]

Both good, the Roland has three oscillators, sequencer, patch memories etc. though - depending if you need those functions

[@steveswan5714]

Paolo you could make a triangle sound good ; )

[@vason2]

good test !!

[@stepanok]

Cant you quantize this when multitracking?

[@sharathkumar83]

hi, what type of cable is required to connect from midi keyboard to neutron?

[@2112jonr]

From what I can tell it's a standard proper sized DIN connector at the Neutron end, and whatever you have on your keyboard/audio interface at the other. Should take some physical abuse, unlike the 3.5mm sockets a few manufacturers use to cut costs.

[@Dazzer1234567]

I'm confused, i thought this was a monosynth, but at around 10:00 it appears to be paraphonic??!!

[@epram73]

Ciao Paolo,se collegato al microbrute??...o deve per forza essere collegato ad una semplice tastiera??Grazie

[@SynthManiaDotCom]

Si', puoi usare il MicroBrute senza problema

[@ThePacratz]

And just subscribed also.

[@markelbichon9829]

hi ! what is this melody that you play from 9:42 to 10:34 ???

[@SynthManiaDotCom]

Hi! My improvisation. I improvise in 99% of my videos.

[@markelbichon9829]

i love it !

[@carl156]

Nice synth i got one too

[@evgenycostygin9333]

Hi, Paolo! I have an idea for you: try to make a Los del Rio - Macarena-style track in your Studio! 😉

[@SynthManiaDotCom]

Suggestion duly noted!

[@samkarugu7639]

remove autofocus on your camera , but good video overall

[@jasons8798]

HOW IN THE HELL DO I LINK MY KEYSTEP TO THE NEUTRON THEN TO MY INTERFACE TO HEAR IT THROUGH MY MONITORS?????????? Sorry Im yelling but I spent all this cashola and Im going nuts. I can get sound with headphones into the Neutron, but thats it lol. HELP!!!!!!!!!

[@SynthManiaDotCom]

KeyStep MIDI Out to Neutron MIDI In; Neutron audio output to one of your interface's audio inputs.

[@truedanbo]

So beautiful at 10:20

[@SynthManiaDotCom]

THank you

[@KeirMurphy]

You are a patient or very busy man to not open it straight away!

[@allehooop]

There is something wrong with this Synth, i hear like noisy clicks on the sounds. Other than that looks and sounds nice.

[@keepupwithspeedy]

i wish i could afford one.

[@keepupwithspeedy]

still way past my budget.

[@DadoSimicStudiostriver]

Is Neutron fatter then Model D?

[@bobsbiggestfan6281]

Am I the only one who had a braingazam at 4:58

[@tron944]

and it's only $299!!!

[@WrvrUgoThrUR]

Be a bit easier to watch if the overhead camera was more directly overhead. Thx for the review.

[@ltxr9973]

That sounds so thick it must be the bbw of synths

[@HazeAnderson]

Prince used the Neutron on his Under the Cherry Moon tour. 😏👉

[@saftpackerl]

I dont thinks so... He died before this came out. Maybe the Hartmann Neuron...

[@LegendaryWoke]

I'll take it! I'm the best comment here! Send me now!
