I work in a Baker store and many customers eat with their eyes. For instance, if I placed a sign for a specific cake the wrong place by accident, some costumers would ask for what it says on the sign while pointing at the cake that the sign is placed in front of. But when I tell them that it's a different cake that contains something different than what the sign says, they don't hesitate and just says: "yesyes I want it anyways", like it doesn't matter what it contains, as long as it looks tasty. It's like with small children at the age 2-5. They judge by the color. If it's colorful they want it. Like when I worked in an icecream shop, no matter if it were boys or girls, they would almost always pick a pink colored icecream with rainbow springles.

Your videos are always so thorough, objective and honest. I’m a retired recording engineer of 20+, years, Synthesizer owner and programmer since 1972 and a amateur drummer for a long time. With the support of my wife, about a year and half ago I started putting together a new Music Studio Production Room in our home to include a host of Synthesizers, both Modular as well as some new Synths recent to the market. Anyway I did initially start out with several Behringers, Model D, Pro-1, Neutron, K-2 and ARP 2600 Blue Marvin mainly because they replicated Synths I had owned or worked with. I also had looked at the Crave but not too closely. Now it was time to take another look at it. I didn’t realize just how close to the Moog Mother 32 it sounds and functions. Hey I’m a big fan of Moog (I own a Matriarch and Theremini) and understand why their products are priced the way they are. After watching your video I was sold. I just ordered mine today.

I think Behringer shines best when a synth is mostly their own creation, as in Neutron, although taking inspiration from the a classic in that case the oscillator section of the Minimoog. Also it was cool the Deepmind is inspired on the Junos and had all that power and sounds so awesome but then the interface is stupid with menu controls that should be hardware and vice-versa. But then I realize how fond I am of the Crave and VC340. Still think they should have enhanced + diverged a bit from the originals, giving them a couple of onboard effects. All these new analogs should have an analog delay and decent reverb onboard...

what's weird about Crave's buttons is they are tactile buttons. Which to the best of my knowledge cost more in components and assembly than a silicon keypad.

Darkice Presents Arguably repair/service would be one reason. Parts supply chains via Behringer are a nightmare vs getting a part direct via Moog/it’s suppliers in my experience. You pay more, but it’s for the piece of mind you will be taken care of when something goes wrong - nobody talks about it cause repairs suck, but it’s the reality with larger companies vs boutique/smaller companies. That said, I think the new Behringer units sound great while they work - but I’ve sent more back for repair/parts in the short time I’ve seen them on the market vs the Mother range of products.

I did a blind test. They are almost identical, but I always recognize the mother 32 and the crave. Crave is more "aggressive" in the low end but loses character in the higher range. There are also some subtle nuances (i.e. when pwm or changing the lfo rate) impossible to hear with the crave because it tends to distorce. Nuances that are instead audible with the M32. I'm not an expert (just passionate about modular) and my language is not appropriate, but that's what I hear.

Perhaps when doing the OSC comparison, it would of been better to use the direct output of OSC SAW and OSC SQR? Perhaps the difference between the two waves , one being smoother than the other, is the differences in the filters?

Hey Hutch, recently picked up a Moog Grandmother. Absolutely love it. Our 4th analog synth , but our first Moog (well, except Animoog), and our first semi-modular. The GM has just been pure bonanza for inspiration. Love it, like next level. Question: How do you think the GM would play with the Crave? In Terms of patchability, as well as overall sound? Like do you think the GM and Crave could have a lot of meaningful cv interaction, producing new sounds and rhythms by sending cv back and forth? Think it would be better with M32? Thanks!

Behringer keep getting the sound right on these units, and they are cheap, and that's important for people who are strapped for cash. But the Moog is the Moog and you get what you pay for, and you can sell it later for more money. But you can't knock Behringer for their cut-price designs and build quality

I'll most certainly knock them for this - stop ripping off other people's design work and design your own instruments! Their great accomplishment (affordability) is achieved by copying other people's work. Hardly admirable.

@@edwardprue I like the Mother, it's better quality but a lot more expensive than the Crave. Moog is a profit-sharing enterprise for its employees and Behringer isn't, and it's not going to change, so Behringer can produce stuff in China at lower cost. So if companies like Behringer are going to make cheaper clones, then at least make them good quality, and they are good quality for the price you pay. You neither want nor expect to pay 150 for something from Moog, but those who can afford the Crave now might well become savvy Moog customers when they get a bit more money later.....

Cool video! I'm an analog bass player and I'm just thinking to get some synth device for additional bass sounds. So there are some bass pedals - but I think it would be more "artificial" to take a real synth. And your video showed me nice stuff. So ... maybe I will get the "crave" just for having fun around christmas. Not sure, if it will get to a live gig - but I'm quite sure I will have fun with it. Thanks for the video, liked!

i was considering to buy the crave for a long time but after this comparison i really tend to save for the moog. The functionality is same or even better on the behringer but the sound of the moog is clearly superior to the behringer, at least for my taste. Considering the long term value, the better visual appearence and the analog envelopes, for me the moog is totally worth the extra money.

Cool comparison, i am not really interested in the Grave and also the mother 32 is not really on my wanted list atm. Subharmonicon looks much more interessting for me. But i would love to see a video like this about the comparison of the Behringer Edge that should come out soon and the Moog Dfam, i own the DFAM but would not mind to have a second one and a "travel DFAM" with midi. I only fear they go again with the 3340 Oscillator and even when that is for sure not a bad one, it will become hard to deliever the same power over the same frequency range as the dfam does.

@@cresshead -- No. I'm only suggesting that these folks who make overlays for Behringer synths (like my Neutron, the Model D, etc.) should also make some overlays for some of the Moog desktop synths like Mother32, DFAM, etc. I actually like the look of Moog's "black" synths, but they're not quite as easy to read as their more colorful cousins, e.g., Sirin, Grandmother, and Matriarch. Not that I particularly like those colors either, but it does make the "components" stand out and the knob settings, in some cases, easier to read.

Ha no idea. I’ll have been mucking about with them while making the sequence. I’ll have played around with everything to create the sequence I demo later, which uses a fair bit of modulation. Then come back to the start and demo what I’ve just been doing. I do this to make sure I’m going somewhere useful and not just making noises. But when doing these vids you’re concentrating on so much going on plus distractions... levels, timing, camera batteries, microphone getting in the way, telephones ringing etc etc it’s easy to miss the obvious!
