Many people are upset that Behringer has copied the Arturia Keystep with their new product Swing. It looks to most like an almost exact replica. What's more strange to me is how everybody is criticizing Behringer when in fact they're not unique by copying the product of another company. It happens all the time. Cars, cameras, clothes, furniture, cosmetics... you name it. This is free-market capitalism 101 and in the end, we as musicians stand to benefit from companies duplicating, improving, and lowering the prices of things they produce.
Behringer has come a long way with their quality and in the last few years has been relentlessly releasing new products- many new and unique to them, as well as a slew of synthesizers that were longed for by many and owned by few. Now people are able to get their hands on the gear they've always wanted and with modern technology, these products will likely last twice or thrice as long as their vintage brethren. Synthesizers made in the 50's, 60's, 70's, 80's, and even 90's, used older technology that didn't last as long as modern components do. Considering these new music products are made to replicate the sound of older gear but with newer technology, the end user will likely get a lifetime of usage with minimal part replacements needed.
For the price of ONE vintage synth, you could have 5 or 10 Behringer synths. You could have an entire symphony of analog gear, so what's to hate?
How do you feel about Behringer copying music gear? Does it bunch your panties? Ruffle your feathers? Or are you excited to have one less hurdle in between you and a studio full of gear? Let me know in the comments below!
