Behringer Vintage v1.0.1 R2R
Team R2R | 16 Apr 2024 | 38.1MB
Behringer launched Vintage, a free analog modeling synth, and the German company’s first synth plugin. However, there’s a twist – the plugin isn’t available for download right now.
The Mac and Windows release is a Prophet-inspired synth that Behringer states they modelled on the analogue circuitry of iconic vintage synths.
However there’s been a bit of a hiccup with the release, and the product page and download link for the plugin went dead shortly after going live, which we’ll cover in more detail below.
The plugin has two multi-wave oscillators (sine, saw and square), which are analog-modeled, as well as a sub-oscillator and hard-sync function.
There is also a noise generator with a color parameter that controls the lowpass cutoff, and you can modulate the pulse width on the square wave oscillator.
The Vintage synthesizer has two filters that offer 12/24 dB switchable highpass, lowpass, bandpass, and formant modes, as well as selectable drive curves for harmonic saturation.
The release allows for serial or parallel filtering, as you can mod the filter routing.
There are dozens of factory presets for the synth included, covering a wide range of sounds, as well as the ability to select favorites and save your own presets.
Behringer has made Vintage available via free download, which you can get after clicking through to get a free licence and registering with Behringer’s Music Tribe community.
After that, you’ll get a serial number that allows you to register the standalone build of the Vintage.
If Vintage users choose to make a donation to Behringer, the funds will go toward the Playing For Change Foundation, which builds art and music schools for children around the world.
There seems to be some funny business going on at Behringer at the moment, however, as the synth was available from the company’s website, but now the product page has been deleted.
There are already several demos of the plugin in action on YouTube, so it went live at some point. However, the exact status of the release is now unknown.
It’s not clear if Behringer is simply fixing a minor issue with its website or if the entire release has been delayed or perhaps even canceled altogether.
Some users have speculated that Behringer did not anticipate the level of demand the release would have, and the plugin is unavailable simply because the servers crashed.
