Holy Shit, Everyone Just Got Fucked On By Behringer

[spacelordmother]

you're all so fucking wrong I can't even.

Story of your life.

[Faldoe]

So is there any good info on what this might cost?

[01010111]

Instead of giving us pricing information, they decided to give us mockups of new versions of the same synth?

[crochambeau]

They probably haven't settled on pricing just yet, setting web crawling bots to collect feedback from the conversations of their target demographic to see how hard they can squeeze.

Therefore: as a male music industry professional in his early 40s I would gladly pay $20 (twenty dollars U.S.) for that glossy contraption.

It depends on how they're algorithm weights the individual responses, though. Just in case they're using a word-count algorithm....

Then they're not likely to make it, at $20 there's no way it covers even the box and shipping.

[Inconuucl]

As long as it's reasonable I'll be on board.

Not trying to own the curve, just balance it toward the reasonable...

[Chankgeez]

Whoever changed the name from "Phat 12" deserves a massive kick in the reproductive bits

[Faldoe]

Realistically. Think this will be $500 or under?

[Inconuucl]

$499-$599 is my guess.

[Strange Tales]

There is no way in hell a 12 voice Polysynth with all these features is going to be less than 4 digits. Like, $1999 would probably be a crazy price for how much is in this.

[Invisible Man]

crazy price

But Behringer?

[psychic vampire.]

$1999 would be crazy, considering the closest thing on the market to it is the Dave Smith Instruments Prophet 12, which clocks in at $2999ish.

That said, i want Behringer to pull the Behringer thing on us and drop it at like $1000-1300. They probably won't, but it might be important to remember that the original Juno 6 cost about 1/3 of what the Prophet 5 and other top of the line poly synths cost. I know this is way more featured than the Junos, but those have been the constant reference point from Behringer as a company and Uli himself, so it seems worth keeping in mind.
