Nice video. I do like mine. It's cool that Behringer made their own Karplus Strong mode for Brains but It's worth noting that they didn’t include the inharmonic string modeling mode from Plaits. It is a great mode because it offers 3 voices of polyphony in contrast to all the other modes which are monophonic. Very nice for plucked guitar/string sounds that overlap and chords (triads). Hopefully they will add it in a future update.

Its becoming not so expensive to build a dope af eurorack set up.

you can pretty much easily illustrate difference beteen 48 and 96 khz by playing higher tones with significant FM modulation … in that territory thank to much less aliasing and noharmonic distortion 96khz sounds MUCH better … it’s like having plaits with 2x oversampling :) This is not just about converter, but about actually internal DSP processing running at higher sample rate …

I really like this vid. It sounds good to me. I built a Veils, a Clouds, and a Braids, and a Rings. It was a bit of a faff but I couldn't afford the real deal - and if I'm honest it didn't save me much money really. I'm all for B clones and at times they seem to add extra functions that are useful. I'm keen on trying out the new Abacus clone of Maths. No way I'd fork out on the real thing - though plenty people would and have. I've had a few Bclone bits of gear and have no complaints about build quality or sound. I think Behringer are doing a great job of meeting the wants of the modular market that exists right now.

Got mine today! I have the plaits and the braids, combined together and mangled through the whole modular System, this is a killer

Oh you've got a fancy studio cat too just like me! Nice.

Hey SC, great review. Couldn't a Microfreak do all the above? Plus the MF has a vocoder, a modulation matrix, filters, envelopes, a playable touch-pad, etc ,....

You had me at cat on sofa

Hi thanks for the video. Just starting out in modular and have just purchased the cre8audio nifty bundle. I’m probably jumping way a head here. Could brains replace the oscillators that come with the bundle or used in conjunction with them

Well... I'd love to play around with it. It seems to be a really nice module, but delivery has been delayed for another freakin' three month!!!

can usb be used for midi as well?

A bit off topic but nice circular spots on the cat, like an ocelot!

I love your Videos

Very interested, 2 on order

I hear on one setting of your Behringer Brains, it said, "red, orange, yellow". I was messing with my Behringer Brains that i purchased recently and on one setting, it was saying, " alpha, foxtrot, echo". I eas surprised it started saying words. Can you explain that to me?

I wish they’d made it uglier though

Ooh a cowbell! How useful! Probably still get one!!

Here for the kitty.

Seems to me that it’s worth having both. I have the MI original but (for the price) Brains has a fair bit of added value- and the horror film tones obtained by running the two side by side seals the deal… Edit: I had the Brains, but sold it on. MI’s release of the new firmware for Plaits sealed the deal- I now have the original Plaits and a 6hp clone. Now THEY have the added value!

Man so much HP used . Looks are nicer then Behringer’s usual though I’ll give them that . The USB port on the FRONT is nice too . Plaits had a Supersaw algo didn’t it ? Or am I thinking of Braids ?

Ordered mine 7 months ago at ANDERTONS still waiting????????

Sounds like we have a technical to me ;) :)

I always prefer the original

Was going to make my own review of brains but it stopped working after 2 weeks Now dealing with Behringer warranty bs Just excuses and no action Nobody wants to claim responsibility for a shonky pos cheaply made unit

How can a company keep ripping of other companys designs???

the ugliest macro oscillator know to man made by the greediest company know to synth land.
