Behringer today shared this new sound demo for the UB-1 Micro, a mini synthesizer based on a classic Oberheim synth voice.
The UB-1 Micro features dual DCO oscillators, a 24 dB/oct low-pass filter and a built-in arpeggiator.
Features:
- Programmable synthesizer with 2 DCOs and classic 4-pole filter
- 3396/3397 analog chip design, found in the Oberheim Matrix 6/1000
- 16 touch-sensitive keys
- 32 sound presets
- Arpeggiator with 3 patterns and hold function
- Individual envelopes for VCF and VCA for creative sound shaping
- 2 LFOs to control filter and oscillator tuning
- 6 functions buttons and OLED display
- USB Type C connector allows powering via smartphone, power bank or computer
- USB/MIDI support (including CC control of all parameters and bulk load/save)
Pricing and Availability:
The Behringer UB-1 Micro is now available (or available to pre-order), priced at $55.90 USD outside the US, and about $70 in the US, because of the current tariff taxes.
I wish behringer would give up on the micro series and focus on more important devices. ;(
Meh… this feels like a step backwards instead of going forward.
Why a step backwards? It’s ideal if you want extra sounds for your large older keyboard like my Roland GW7, or my Impulse 25. Also more sounds on the go, paired with my Akai MPK mini play.
Huh, that actually sounded better than I expected.
Pricetag is $70: being snobby on UB1 is really lame
