MP Controller: Game Changer? Demo with Dawesome Myth & GForce DMX
MP Controller, a very special MIDI device is currently about to turn my usual workflow upside down. I know, the term is often overused at the moment, but for me this controller is definitely a game changer, because it makes software plugins actually feel like real hardware. Here is my first experience report:

    Thank you Pete for this test compare, i see that filter switch is on 1/2 (Rev 1/2 with SSM Filter) probably it should be better to set on Rev3 with Cem 3320 Filter (clone 3320 there is inside Pro 800). I think for this way some preset has different tune.

    I absolutely love the syntakt. I was never interested in the elektron workflow, but I had never used it. But when I needed a drum synth, I grabbed a syntakt. I immediately fell in love with it, and now I understand why everyone loves elektron sequencers. The only reason I sold it is the lack of polyphony. I need chords, and their chord device doesn’t really work for me. If they make a syntakt 2 that has actual polyphony, I’m getting it immediately

    I would argument, that a mono synth isn't the best first synth. For me it's the Arturia Minifreak. It provides different oscillator engines, all controllable with 3 knobs. You don't have to understand how those engines work and instead play with these knobs and learn by sound. It provides a super simple to use sequencer and effects so you don't have to buy those (which you usually don't own if its your first synth) and it has a VST that can be used stand alone or to control the synth (also perfect for your first plugin). Not only that: Arturia provides extensive video tutorials and free preset banks.

    For me the differences can mainly be heard in the frequency spectrum. The Pro 800 sounds slightly forward in the lower mids. Also the Pro 800 sounds overdriven in the higher frequencies in comparison. On sound alone I think the Prophet 5 sounds a little more scooped and sparkly, which I prefer. But when you consider the price, the difference in tone becomes somewhat irrelevant.

    Say and think what you will about Behringer, their biggest success is proving that good synths can be made more inexpensively and made affordable than the old guards Moog, Prophet, Roland and Oberheim were willing to admit or implement. Every market needs someone to shake it up from time to time.

    Fantastic comparison video, really great! Now my old and battered ears should never be used as any audio reference, but i'd still like to share my impression and knowledge about the electronics inside ... - It seems to me, as a constant throughout this video, the p-5 has a little more volume than the p-800. Easy to fix using any common mixer. - It seems to me, as a constant throughout this video, the p-5 has a little more low end and is a bit brighter on the high end, than the p-800. Also easy to fix using any common mixer. The differences are minute. In theory this is expected, since both companies use modern versions of the original CEM integrated circuits. Thanks to Dave Smith the heirs of Doug Curtis have started to reproduce the original line of CEM ICs. Other manufacturers like Oberheim, Roland and Korg, to name a few have also benefitted from that. Now Behringer took a somewhat different route. He set up mass-production lines for ICs similar to the original CEMs as well as for other analog components that had long been out of production, especially the LM13700 OTAs and some transistors. These components were intensively used in older synthesizers, even before the first CEM ICs appeared. And since Behringer specializes in recreating vintage synths from various original brands they require huge numbers of all of these components, making their manufacturing line profitable. The sound differences being minute, a choice between these two would, for me, depend on size and on features (e.g. polymod on p-5, 8 voices on p-800).
