MS-5 - A Legend Comes Back to Life

[@diderichlangmannen]

F I N A L L Y ! This series from Roland was always my absolute favorite of all times! Thank you very much, Behringer, for making this dream come alive again.

[@thesrabbit]

Sounds great. Probably the best demo ever on this channel too. Well done.

[@Canal_Noir_Film]

Congratulations! Great work. The oscillators... All of it sounds spot on. The form factors as well as the I/O options are all on point. Well done.

[@JonManness]

This thing sounds so good and I can't imagine all the sound design possibilities it can do ! Anyway ! Bravissimo Patrick, you give us another magnificent demo, thanks for that ! You are like a prophet who always comes to tell us good news and the idea of having an M/SH5 in my armada makes my GAS rise ! Greetings !

[@theolliedog]

Wow, this sounds (and looks) really great. To my ears it's the best sounding clone that Behringer has made.

[@googlingthevoid]

Agreed!

@@Dudderlyfulif you mean having product ready for delivery, then absolutely 😅

[@Station2Station-du2gh]

@@Dudderlyful he's right. If it's not available for sale at the usual Beringer resellers, this follows a Beringer pattern. so if you call "diamond perfection" being able to actually purchase something that they say you can purchase now, then yes, we required diamond perfection.

[@buhlir]

berhinger you are crushing it lately, I seriously want all the synths you guys are remaking. The only thing that I would love to see change, is your logo and color. Especially the color. It may be trivial, but also maybe not. People get the moog logo tattooed because it's so simple and rad. I really believe the logo could really change how berhinger is seen and how it feels when you buy one of your products. But otherwise keep up what you're doing cuz I freaking love it!

[@Djpuzzle]

Love your jams bro. Give a share to your bandcamp when you can.

[@Scrumper66]

Good sounds! Good synth! And good idea to recreation of this synth! Very nice!!!

[@therealmattmann]

[@RebeccaTurner-ny1xx]

Judging by recent history there will be numerous such videos but made only by a select group of KZbin synthfluencers, while in the real world we go buy gear from other makers that's actually available.

[@markjupiter4]

Fantastic demo, so glad your back demo-ing them. Who would have thought this possible a few years ago. Your right, it is a very exciting time to be alive, if your into synths :) How are you getting on with the SEM modules? can't wait for them

[@bk3artistlabel834]

Love the intro, well done🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@zach5539]

This sounds phenomenal, well done to the behringer team!

[@bcj842]

I don't care what anyone says. Behringer is the coolest synth developer out there today rivaled only by UDO. Their mission to collect and re-engineer ancient, museum-piece equipment and bring them into mass production again in hardware form is honorable.

[@DurararaX2]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 "honorable"

[@bcj842]

@@DurararaX2 Nobody else is going to make replicas like these. Not everyone can get the real things and Behringer modernizes them to be capable of more than the originals. It'd be another matter entirely if they were making complete junk, but their machines are actually remarkably solid considering how little they cost. It's a great business for them and it makes the synth market far more accessible. That's a win for everyone.

[@malikdavis6091]

In my opinion behringer is cool as hell so is UDO, but ASM takes the cake

[@Justsobusy]

Y’all are smoking crack and have no idea what a good synth is

[@bcj842]

@@malikdavis6091 You make a good point! I always forget about Hydra. Those really are amazing.

[@InFamousProductions]

What’s amazing is how clean yet thick the oscillators are.

[@ghostfrom1950]

Thought the same thing. Amazing

[@__teles__]

Some oscillators sound better than others? I'd say no BUT the signal path after the oscillator can suck the life and warmth out of them. High pass filters are essential on a synth but might do this, capacitors for DC blocking also can strip the goodness from oscillators.

[@jd808]

@@__teles__ no all oscillators are the same.. and you even talk about capacitors? LOL

[@richardtrussell8220]

Capacitors used for DC blocking, an essential tool, act as low pass filters. So value and dielectric material very much effective the sound as it passes through.

[@jd808]

@@richardtrussell8220 if you say all oscillators sound the same you have no idea what you are talking about... love the lesson about capacitors and dielectric materials i swear people amaze me

Been there, done that. Let go of some really cool pieces along the way. Keep your chin up, rough times don't last forever. Fortunately, we have arrived in a time when excellent and usable synth gear can be had at very reasonable price points, and even if you never regain your old collection, you will surely find gear that allows you to continue to pursue your passion!

Hey Patrick! Great to see you again doing another demo, always know it's going to be ace when it's you doing it. Love the demo tune! Would love to hear a longer version. Very impressed with the sound of the MS5 so far, will you be doing any more demos in the future? Would love to hear more, also raw saw basses to hear it's tone. Thanks again.

[@tblv9300]

Sounds great

[@aaronmoya]

Epic news!!! I’ll definitely be getting one of these!! 🎉

[@embazle]

I love Behringer. My first product of theirs was a 5 channel mixer. got two of them, then got an 12 channel. now got their x-touch controller and a Behringer X-AIR mixer, played with their Wing mixer and it is amazing also. Their only synth I owned was their Deepmind 12, still young in the synth world, I ended up selling it and while I don't regret it, I miss having it. Since then following the Behringer journey in what you'd call replicating copying other older synths, having that cost friendly alternative to bask in the experience that once was; is such a gift. I can't imagine how many hours of circuit analysis, engineering, and program processing it must take to re-create and even implement additional features to their products, must take, and I certainly don't see anyone else doing that. It's a hats off and dance in my opinion. The MS-5 looks and sounds fantastic!

[@SublimeSynth]

phew, this sounds on par with my Sub Phatty.. Behringer, please never stop never stopping.

[@RoyChartier]

With respect, the Sub Phatty has a much warmer, deeper, fatter sound. It definitely lives up to its name. This is a nice recreation of the original, but seems to lack the warmth and juicy fatness of the original. Perhaps some more tweaking before release will be able to get it closer to sounding more like the original.

[@dougie6897]

Sounds like the best sounding mono synth Behringer has made to date.

[@pixelwash9707]

I like my Kobol Expander - this synth seems like it could be complementary with it's audio in capability.

[@RoyChartier]

That would be the Wasp.

[@halpearson4226]

Yes... I have a serviced SH5 in front of me and this sounds better than that, for practical purposes. The SH5 is quite hard to get to sit in a mix because the top end is so focused and raspy - I generally run mine through the filter section of a Moog. But this sounds great as is. The main thing about the SH5 is the functionality, esp the ability to 'isolate' a sub frequency using the band-pass and then mix that under the main midrange sound. Don't get me wrong, I love the SH5, but the deviations from accuracy here seem welcome.

[@Naotaku]

I must admit, I didn't know about the SH-5. But this sounds fantastic! The demo song is fire.

[@EdEditz]

It was a new one on me too :)

[@AlchemicalAudio]

Great demo. Your products are looking much better, moving towards substance over hype was a smart move.

[@Lord_UND_Himself]

This thing really does sound great

[@thomaskrasemann709]

I honestly hope that Behringer continues rebuilding vintage synths. Hope the Korg PS series is among them. 3100, 3200 or 3300. This legendary sound needs affordable recreation!

[@dotline4759]

Behringer thanks a lot for all the efforts. Cant wait.

[@Novaheart1998]

This is really great, thankyou Behringer! But, having said that, it would be great if it came in a desktop module form too. I'd also love this filter to become available as a stand alone module I could use with my System 100 modular synth.

[@EntropyCoM]

Yeah! Finally, I got mine today (August 31st, 2024). Ordered it directly after hearing the demo sound. I am new to making synth sounds myself. I wonder how you manged to make this incredibly lead sound in the demo (0:33 - 1:18) - I love it... still trying to recreate it...

[@PatchDog]

Hey man, I don't remember exactly how I did it, but I'll dig up the song out the files and put it on my channel soon. I for sure have pictures on my phone of each preset I made for the demo tune so I'll have a look. If I get time (in between all Behringer videos I have to do right now🥴) I'll do a video on it.

What a terrible time to be poor 😢

[@Soso-km8er]

Behringer just released the „Vintage“ soft synth, so don’t despair. While analog gear is nice, limited financial capabilities have never been less relevant for musical talent. A used MacBook with Logic (or just a laptop with Ubuntu Studio) is all one needs. Top notch production capability is available for everybody who can watch KZbin. Our society was considered rich, yet 35 years ago I had nothing except a flute and an old piano. Be thankful.
