Four Voice Behringer Model D in the Works?

Oh, one One more thing... Published on Nov 22, 2019 BEHRINGER

D.. D.. D.. Duh!

WARP DRIVE!!!

Your guess is as good as mine, but no offense to synth manufacturers out there, please, please get over the four voice thing. Five voices should be the bare minimum if not six imo. Four is just a voice stealing nightmare. I picked up a four voice Roland SH-01A thinking four voices of SH-101 is better than 1. I couldn't take it and I sold it. Yes I could just play it monophonically, but that defeated the whole four voice thing. If it were six voices I would have kept it, but that's just me, and you are you.

"8 voice rackmount monster analog poly synth. This was originally the standard Omega 8 which I had factory updated to the CODE 8 spec and faceplate, along with the OD (overdrive/analog distortion) switch in addition to a factory tuneup and eight CS80 filters (Oberheim and Moog filters also include standard). Works perfectly and sounds amazing. Faceplate is mint, body casing has some rack rash, scratches and a dent, none of which are visible when rack mounted."

"I'm so excited that this album is now out! Last month I met Nathan Moody in person for the first time. He dropped by my place on his way to do a talk and performance at Velocity in Seattle. After just a few hours together my friend, Bruce Bayard came by and we three decided to jam. Nathan had a cool field recorder that he setup and recorded us all in the room. The jam turned out to be sonic serendipity, a rare conjunction of modular planets. I hope you enjoy it . . .

"Recorded live in Ashland, Oregon, “Start from Silence” captures three masters of West Coast analogue synthesis performing with a focus on reciprocal listening and improvised expression.

Todd Barton, Bruce Bayard, and Nathan Moody combine a unique set of unusual instruments into a journey in tone, gesture, and sound. The aural dynamics were made in response only to the sounds, breaths, and movements of each performer. The music ranges from ambient to intense, gliding from amorphous to structured with bubbling streams of energy and contemplative drones that guide the listener throughout. The recording purposefully contains the artists’ breaths and movements, lending verisimilitude, presence, and authenticity to this organic performance.

The artists hadn’t played together before this recording, making the emergent soundscapes and sonic exploration all the more stunning…yet perhaps unsurprising, given the their combined 70+ years of composition and performing experience.
