Behringer Odyssey + VC340 + Neutron Demo Song

Premiered 7 hours ago RuFo Music

This one was spotted and sent in via Soviet Space Child.

"This is a demo song made with Behringer Odyssey, Behringer VC340 (the one in the blue video through an Electro Harmonix Smallstone analog phaser) and Behringer Neutron, as well as two software synthesizers (Reveal Sound "Respire" for bright arpeggios and Rob Papen "Predator" for bass), because yes digital and analog synths can coexist side by side. This is a new piece, and not based on the previous demo sequence.

Many synth demos show only sounds and features, but I want to show the musical side of it and make a piece of music - that is after all what they are made to do! In all the technical discussions, let's not forget about the music!

The video shows a live performance of the dual-voiced lead of the song, where I play the Odyssey and Neutron (Neutron is controlled by a Roland MIDI keyboard), and they alternate which synth is leading and which is following. This was a technically difficult piece to play due to the multitasking of two voices, recording the result into Reason, and filming with a camera strapped to my head at the same time, but it was also good fun!"

Behringer VC340 Vocoder + 101-VCO [Demo #1]

Published on Nov 19, 2019 gstormelectro

"Audio and Video by G-Storm Electro c. 2019

Today the gorgeous sounds of the Behringer VC340 Vocoder
Strings and Choir paired with my 101-VCO on arpeggio.
101-VCO going to my 101-VCF for that classic SH-101 sound.
Future Retro Transient is going to the vocoder mic input.
Transient is modulated by Batumi to result in those
shifting vocoder effects - almost chanting/talking?
Arturia Drumbrute Impact is clocked to the Beatstep Pro.
Some Big Sky reverb and Timefactor Delay.

Recorded direct to Tascam DR-05.

ranzee Live Stream - Behringer VC340 Vocoder and String Synthesizer

Streamed live 3 hours ago ranzee

"This week we're taking a look at the Behringer VC340. The latest analog vocoder synth with a Roland VP-330 heritage. It's a string synthesizer and vocoder with a human voice section too. It is completely analog and has a beautiful retro sound - which I'm sure you'll recognise immediately from records in the 70s and 80s."

Behringer VC340 No-Ensemble Strings thru Nyle Steiner String Filter - Mark Steiner

Published on Aug 18, 2019 Mark Steiner

"Pure VC340 Saw sound (mod bypasses Ensemble BBD's) through a Nyle Steiner String Filter and then through Valhalla Shimmer. Incredible power here with the 'full' polyphony (all 5 octaves of notes can sound at one time if enough fingers are available) of the VC340.

At one point, the Shimmer is dropped and the sound goes through Valhalla Delay (another amazing plugin). Then near the end we hear the VC340 through the Steiner String Filter with no reverb or delay.

It is way, extremely long. But fun. This is the whole session. So quite archival but jump around and try out some sections.

I adjust the Steiner filter occasionally and a few times put it into it's own LFO mode. It gets a great formant filter sound as it uses 24 band pass filters in parallel. Nyle made about 12 of these.

He developed this while doing the sound track for Apocalypse Now.

One of the synthesists in the synth orchestra used a Moog String Filter and Nyle thought about how he could do a string filter with a more simple circuit and for far less expense.


The one in this recording and image seen is the prototype."

Released on Spclnch 2019
https://spclnch.bandcamp.com/album/sa...

"Dubtechno session played live & recorded reel to reel, using revox b77, roland space echo re-201, Arturia DrumImpact, Behringer VC340, Sequential dsi Prophet 6, DSI Tempest, Prophet 12, vermona perfourmer mkII, elektron octatrack & Analog Rhythm, Strymon Bigsky & Timeline, Jomox T-Resonator II, livid cntrl-r, Ableton live for samples.
All the synth on the stand are going thru the mackie mixer. All the synth are midi slaves and sequenced by the Octatrack. DrumImpact patern is going thru VC340 vocoder (sequenced by OT) + Jomox T-Resonator II. To fade in or out a synth, i use the cutoff filter mostly and when the sound is almost vanished, i shut down the sequenced midi channel on the Octatrack. On the Mackie mixer are coming external auxilliar fx like Space echo, Time line & Bigsky. Each channel/synth can get the proper amount of fx i want at anytime. Also i root 3 output channels from the Tempest to the Mackie : 1 stereo & 1 mono. I can use the send fx on those channels (usually stereo is for tempest synth and mono for rhythm elements). The Mackie stereo output is going to the soundcard Input channel. Midi Clock is from SND Acme-4. Concerning Ableton, i control the mix, the send fx & mute with livid cntrl-r. I play samples (Voice & Chords from the original track)


I hope you will enjoy this one too !"

Behringer VC340 and Roland VP-03 together - Combining the analog and digital synthesizer vocoder

Published on Nov 2, 2019 Expanding Sound

"I've seen quite a few videos comparing these two units. For my money they both sound great and each have useful qualities. The VC340 is analog and has a rich warm sound with a full size key bed and great build quality. The VP-03 has it's portability, sequencing ability and built in audio interface as features that stand apart from its remake counterpart.

I wondered, instead of pitting them against each other, like others have, how do they sound together? They are so similar in tone that using them together just adds more fullness to the sound. The only difficult aspect to navigate was using a microphone. I decided to run a mic into a mixer and split it into both units. The result is a little airy as the mixer isn't the best quality, but with the strings and voice patches you can really hear how great the two sound added together. I was going to sell my VP-03 after I got the VC340. Now, I'm not so sure!"

New Behringer Vocoder VC340 is Complete

You might remember the assembled pics of the upcoming Behringer VC340 Vocoder (Roland VP-330 clone). This new image to the left is a working version in the hands of MrRirechild. Demos will follow soon.

An Update on the Upcoming VC340 from Behringer

via Behringer off of one of the forums:

[P.S. you can find a demo of the prototype by MrFirechild here.]

"I like to discuss the status of the VC340 with you and appreciate your feedback.

As we have often explained to you, our pricing model is defined by a straightforward "bottom up" calculation, which means we multiply our manufacturing cost by a factor of approximately 3 in order to arrive at the US MAP (Minimum Advertised Price).
This will allow us to pay for our development and manufacturing cost but also enable distributors and retailers to distribute the product to you and equally pay for their staff.

In terms of the Vocoder VC340 we are struggling a bit. This is a pretty exotic synthesizer and many people told us that we're totally crazy to invest so much time and effort to bring it back to life.
People who are familiar with technology understand that this is a very complex analog product as it contains over 3,000 components of specified with very low tolerances.

While we have not decided to actually manufacture the product, I personally like to bring it back as it's such a beautiful instrument. In fact it's a synthesizer I feel very sentimental about as it was one of those synths I always wanted but could not afford when I was a kid!

Now here's where we are:

1.) If our order book covers at least 1,000 units, it would allow us to sell the VC340 for US$ MAP 999.99.
2.) If we can collect orders for more than 5,000 units, we could actually lower the price to US$ 799,99.
3.) If we cannot gather at least orders for 1,000 units, we unfortunately would have to abandon the project as we would loose too much money. In this case I have at least my own prototype:-).

Please share with us your level of interest. Thanks for your help - I truly hope we can make this happen:-)

Behringer VC340 Vocoder demo

Published on Sep 2, 2019 Hunart©

"Hi Everyone!

Thanks to SoundTrade, the distributor of Behringer in Poland I`ve had a chance to check the new VC340 Vocoder. Due to the specific sound of vocoders I had to use some EQ but tried to keep the sound as natural as possible. All sounds were made by the synth or via microphone. I used a compressor to side chain and transposed down two tracks in Live. Beside this no external effects were used.

Feel free to ask any questions.


Enjoy,

Puttin' On The Ritz (Taco's 1982 version) cover with Baloran's The River & the VC340 vocoder

Published on Sep 25, 2019 Sean Christopher Evoking Emotion with Synthesizers

"I've always LOVED this piece ever since I first heard it in 1982.

Taco Ockerse, known as Taco, is an Indonesian-born Dutch singer and entertainer who started his career in Germany. Taco released his first single, 'Puttin' On the Ritz' in 1982 and his version of the song also had pieces of other Irving Berlin songs.

The only synth used for this track was the mighty Baloran the River. The Behringer VC340 vocoder was used to get my wife's vocals into the piece. We also decided to put her 'normal' un-vocoded voice into the final 1/3 of the song to give it a more organic feel. NI's Maschine was used for the percussion and all tracks were recorded into and mixed/mastered with Cubase 10 Pro."
