The last week has brought a lot of interesting news for the amateurs of modular synthesizers, such as a new oscillator with waveform change functions from Pittsburgh Modular, a Link module (Evaton Technologies) for connecting several modular systems, a percussion eurorack-module Fracture, which uses granular synthesis to create a variety of percussion sounds, and new plans by Behringer.

Behringer D. The true fans of “everything original” are storming with indignation when they hear about things like that but the noise will calm down and haters will switch their anger into mercy joining the line-up of analog sound devotees who don’t care too much about what is wrong and what is right but love the old good times enormously. Because they can’t resist the chance to collar that elusive opportunity – to finally reach out for something they could feel through only with the help of records or YouTube.

Behringer did what he could and he can do what he wants. This time we talk about his DeepMind 12 which everybody waits to be released as soon as (im)possible. Some of the musicians have already imagined how it will fit into their studios or thought about having a desktop version without a keyboard. Synthopia posted about it in August asking for comments while Gearslutz has a topic about that on its forum where they’ve already discussed everything.
