    • Looks like the Behringer JT-4000 Micro Synth is now available for preorder. Looks good for the price.

      • Supposedly this synth is paraphonic with all voices sharing the analog filter, but that last demo with the droning bass and a melody with clearly enveloped filters over it seem to indicate otherwise. Unless they multi tracked that demo which would be misleading as far as the synth’s actual capabilities.

        It’s an interesting concept and it does sound pretty good.

      • These are in stock now and was about to buy when I noticed it didn’t have DIN MIDI, only via USB. I thought they would have at least added TRS MIDI. I can’t imagine there’s many dawless folks that will buy this.

        • There’s a few bits of hardware than can sequence this via USB including the MPC One and the Oxi One, but I agree that the lack of DIN MIDI makes the JT-4000 difficult to integrate. I think they’ve made a mistake making it USB MIDI only.

      • Sounds good. Seems odd it doesn’t have battery power though, as it seems to be competing with the Volca’s and Roland Compacts.

      • Sounds great for the price. I think this will sell very well!

      • Another good audio demo…

      • I received mine last week. Vector synthesis is pretty cool. It sounds amazing 😎

      • I received mine yesterday and noticed they’ve just released a firmware update to address some of the early user feedback including the sound of the wavetables/oscillators.

        • I actually thought it already sounded pretty good, but nice to have more oscillator options. I wish Roland were this quick to add new features to the SH-4d.

      I’m selling a Roland SH-01A for £250. It’s in perfect condition. I just don’t use it anymore since getting an SH-4d. It sounds better for 101 sounds but I just find using a multitimbral synth more convenient than using lots of boutiques. UK sale only. Bank transfer or PayPal accepted (F&F or you pay the fees).

      I’m also selling a boutique dock DK-01 separately for £50 if anyone is interested.
