Behringer Pro VS Mini

The Behringer Pro VS Mini in detail:

With the Pro VS Mini, Behringer brings the classic 1986 synthesizer Sequential Circuits Prophet VS into the modern age and at the same time reduces it to a handy format. The special feature of the Prophet VS - as well as the Pro VS Mini - is the Vector Synthesis, which mixes four oscillators, each with its own waveform and Tuning via joystick and/or mix envelope, which creates different waveform mixes than would be possible with a normal oscillator mixer due to overlays. The oscillators themselves share a pool of 128 waveforms, which can be combined with each other as desired. The vector mixer is followed by an analogue 24dB Lowpass filter, with the VCA and an effects unit with reverb, Chorus and ensemble completing the signal path. The latter is a guarantee for even livelier sounds, especially for pads and pads. As with the original, three ADSR envelopes (VCF, VCA, Mix), two LFOs, velocity and the arpeggiator with three playback patterns are used for modulation. Never before has vector synthesis been so affordable, and the Pro VS Mini comes relatively close to the original from the 80s. The integrated step sequencer offers access to 16 patterns that can be programmed with different scales and shuffle values. Notes can be entered quickly using the capacitive 27-key mini-keyboard or via MIDI. Power is supplied exclusively via the USB port, MIDI is also fed into the synthesizer via USB and the DIN socket. Thanks to extensive MIDI implementation, the instrument can be conveniently automated with the DAW or a master sequencer. There are 32 memory locations for your own sounds.
