Polivoks Creator Vladimir Kuzmin Teams up with Behringer



Another synth legend joins Behringer. You might recall KORG's Hiroaki Nishijima joined back in 2019. PPG's Hermann Seib joined in 2020. Luigi Scarano of fingersonic joined back in 2019 as well as Mode Machines Michael Thorpe. Robin Whittle of Devilfish fame almost worked out a deal to bring the Devilfish mods to the TB-3 but that fell through and Behringer moved forward without him. Not sure what the story was behind the Jasper WASP and then there's the Swing. It is interesting to see who is willing to work with Behringer and who isn't. You might recall Behringer sued Dave Smith Instruments/Sequential along with 20 forum members, they threatened to sue an online publication, and they created the Cork Sniffer. That said, here's the news:

"Vladimir Kuzmin and Behringer announced today that they have entered into a collaboration to develop a new Polivoks synthesizer.

Vladimir Kuzmin stated: “With great interest have I followed Behringer’s Vision to bring back iconic synthesizers and make them affordable for musicians. For all my life, I have been extremely passionate about synthesizers and I decided to contact Uli to see if Behringer would be interested to design a new Polivoks as I would love to see my legacy live on.

I designed the Polivoks in 1980 at the Urals Vector plant in Russia, while it was produced by the Formanta Radio Factory. The Polivoks has features that are very unusual on most analog synthesizers, which creates this very unique and distinctive sound, often referred to as “Russian synthesizer sound”. For many years it has been my dream to create a new and much improved Polivoks. Uli’s synthesizer Vision provides a fantastic opportunity for me to contribute to the reimagining of my Polivoks and to make it accessible to everyone - a Vision I profoundly believe in and want to be part of.”

Uli Behringer, commented: 'It’s an immense honor to have Vladimir Kuzmin on our team as he is a legendary synth designer. We are extremely proud, we could win him for our ambitious Vision.
This partnership demonstrates again that we welcome collaborations with boutique inventors and manufacturers, as we believe we can perfectly coexist and complement each other. We invite anyone interested in a possible collaboration to contact us at joinus@musictribe.com.'

Here is a great article about Vladimir Kuzmin and his amazing Polivoks story."

ELBY Pixie Attache EDP WASP clone with distortion + extra waveforms



via this auction

"Australian WASP clone with added distortion circuit, extra waveforms + a few other sweet tricks up her sleeves.

In my opinion this is the best rendition of the WASP synth and blows the Jasper / Behringer versions out of the water. ELBY is a legendary modular synth company who really know how to cross their T's and dot their I's. This thing has some huge bass!"

Little butler cat in one of the pics.

Electronic Dream Plant WASP synth, Kim Wilde, Nick Rhodes... in memory of Chris Huggett,


Electric Cafe

"This video demonstrates the sound of the Electronic Dream Plant WASP synthesizer, Kim Wilde used it for her hit single Kids In America, and Duran Duran keyboard player Nick Rhodes used it early in with the band.

Sadly Chris Huggett passed away on October 22nd 2020 but leaves behind a legacy of synth production that in a British way rivals that of Moog, Oberheim, ARP, and other synthesizer manufacturers. Today there are companies who recognise the popularity of the EDP WASP and have cloned them, Behringer and the Jasper are just two who have released their version of this classic vintage sounding synthesizer which rivals some Moog, Oberheim, ARP, Yamaha, and other famous synthesizer company products since the late 1970's.

Jasper, Matriarch et un soupçon de BigSky...


Published on May 27, 2020 Laurent Baloran

"Jasper midifié (bidouille maison) et boutons en place, la guêpe est habillée.
L'étendue du clavier du Jasper et donc étant limité (3 octaves), j'ai mis en place un renversement automatique bien pratique pour avoir en midi une plus grande étendue sans interruption, ainsi que la (dé)sactivation automatique du midi pour jouer avec le petit clavier intégré.
J'aime vraiment bien le son de la guêpe, ainsi que son ergonomie sommaire mais suffisante."

"Midified jasper (homemade hack) and buttons in place, the wasp is dressed.
The extent of the keyboard of the Jasper and therefore being limited (3 octaves), I set up an automatic reversal very practical to have at noon a greater extent without interruption, as well as the automatic (de) deactivation of the midi to play with the small integrated keyboard.
I really like the sound of the wasp, as well as its basic but sufficient ergonomics. "

"Premiers pas avec la guèpe JASPER, clone du Wasp, en version noknob :D :D
Elle déménage bien. Quel drôle d'instrument ! Peu de commandes, mais l'ensemble est plaisant. Et le son, aussi gros que Lo est vraiment intéressant.
J'aime le filtre que vous allez un peu entendre ;)
Le tout passe juste dans le Hall de la BigSky...."

Berhinger Set to Announce Moog Eurorack Modules at NAMM


2 Days To Go... Published on Jan 14, 2020 BEHRINGER

Behringer revealed the 923 Noise & Filter here. This one appears to be the 921 OSCILLATOR. Note there are several clones of this module from other manufacturers as well. Curious if this is based on one of them, the original, or their own. Their EDP Wasp clone closely resembles the Jasper clone.

Update:
NAMM 2020 – Behringer Introduces a System 55 Modular Synthesizer

Is Behringer's WASP Deluxe a Clone of a Clone?


Thought this was interesting. Take a look at the front panels.

The top is the original EDP WASP Deluxe.

The middle is the Jasper clone.

The bottom is the Behringer WASP Deluxe.

Note the knob layout for each.

Clone of a clone? Depends on the internals. Reminds me of the original Technology Transplant (Cyclone Analogic) TB-303 and x0xb0x clones - see this post. This is also worth a read.

Update: Note the ENV hold switch, ENH waveshape in the oscillator section, and Noise level knob on the Jasper & Behringer clones. They are in the exact same locations yet completely absent on the original. These were introduced in the Jasper.

Wood Cased Jasper EDP Wasp Synthesizer

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

"This powerful analog synthesizer is a recreation of Electronic Dream Plant’s 1978 cult favorite, the EDP Wasp. Nothing quite compares to the analog tones produced by this monstrous machine. From leg-quivering rumbles in the industrial realm to the pulsing LFO’s of techno, this thing can take you to the ambient landscapes of tomorrow or even the lead solos you crave on your prog rock group.

It is encased in a custom wooden case that used Moog as an inspiration. It will come with a top board that is fastened to the unit and serves as a wooden briefcase, nifty for rolling out of a gig and into the night.

Some issues with the unit: it was built from the ground up. So the knobs aren’t quite calibrated to be the exact degree where the markings say are, for example, square wave or triangle wave. On the filter section, the knob goes right in the middle of each of the markings instead of right on the dot. The bottom right knob is fully functional but for some reason swings to the right in an overt manner (it goes past the delay marking). The top right of the unit where in the input and output are is kept in place by a single nail. A while ago it popped out but I popped it back in. Worst comes to worst, some glue oughta do.

Everything is fully functional."

Half Blood Thunder Moon Caravanserai


Published on Jul 15, 2019 Vykaar Tones

"Improvised sequences with an eastern feel composed after watching this unusual looking full moon out of my window. First synth heard are the kassutronic modules sequenced by a darktime sequencer with glide added by the frequency central trans europa module. Next is the Jasper synth going through the tau pipe phaser and being sequenced by the per|former sequencer midi out to a kenton pro-kadi to wasp interface. The higher note sequence is the boomstar 4075 controlled by cv and gate from the per|former sequencer. Cr8000 drums and mutant bass and snare triggered from doepfer A-157-1 and Vermona random rhythm. Low bass notes from DoepferDark Energy MK1 and maq16/3. Vocal sound is from the Roland V-Synth."
