Does Poly-6 mode on the DM12 effetely use 2 voices per note? Limiting the poly to match the Juno but is the juno using one or two voices per note? Essentially is this still actuate or different from the Juno?@@StarskyCarr
@StarskyCarr

@@JoshRichmanDesign It still uses 1 voice per note, as with the 12 voice or 8 voice mode, but just limits the number voices to 6. This gives note stealing like the juno 106, while still limiting to the 2 oscillators per voice. So if you use Osc2 as a sub you're in Juno territory.

I've never owned a 106, but I do have the DeepMind 6 and it's an extraordinary achievement on Behringer's part. The menu-diving, such as it is, I thought would be off-putting, but it actually makes total sense when you're building sounds. You are building a sound and think, "Man, I just wish I could assign an ASDR to this parameter" or something, and then you realize it's right there for you. I've found it to be flexible and exciting to program. Also, the build quality is awesome (mine fell down a flight of stairs and still functions perfectly; a little worse for wear cosmetically though), and it feels great to handle. I know I sound like a shill for Behringer, but I think it's just incredible that you can get so much synth for your money. That said, if I were blindfolded, I think would prefer the 106 on a purely sonic level. And as soon as I find one in perfect condition for 500.00, I will buy one. **And thanks for the excellent post, by the way!**

If you lust after the vintage analogs, that's understandable, but if you have a DM just enjoy the awesome sounds and capabilities and how close it can get to the vintage Juno's at a fraction of todays prices, and much much more beyond; with twice the polyphony (I tend to stick to 12 voice poly, because having a 12 voice analog poly is just gorgeous for pads), a great mod matrix and excellent effects x4. Behringer really did a stellar job on it. These are great days for synths! Now, if only Uli could replace the Synthex I moronically sold decades ago...

The difference for me is how it sits in a mix. Chromeo talk about the 106 and how much room it takes up in the mix. I used to fix audio equipment for a living and we fixed quite a few Junos. The Juno sounds great but it is definitely the big thick booming sound in the mix with the chorus. I play a lot of guitar and bass and I have quite a few synths. I’ve had a prophet 8, jx8p, jx-03,jp-08, Ultranova,microkorg, d-50, minibrute, neutron, reface cs, volca keys,bass,fm, m audio venom, op-1, circuit, minilogue, micro x, Korg triton, and micro moog. The Deepmind is thin and not as much to program as synths like the minilogue and reface cs but it sits in a mix wonderfully. Judged on its own it the Deepmind is not the most rewarding synth, but in my mixes it’s gold. The only other synth that fits that well is my monologue.

Whether a synth sits well in a mix has nothing to do with whether it's got one or two or three oscillators. The DSI Prophet '08 and Prophet 6 both have two oscillators and sounds extremely different, even when you make patches on each of them as similar as possible. The Prophet 6 can easily kill all other synths in the mix, while the Prophet '08 most often fits in very well.

That rounded shape to the saw is some highpass filtering or AC coupling in the signal path. It might not even be audibly attenuating any frequencies at that point but it still affects the shape. That's also the cause of the shape of the DM12's square. You mention it being due to the way the square is derived from the saw, but that is actually the case the squares in pretty much all VCO and DCO synths. The weird shape is caused by filtering in the signal path. My best guess is it's a difference in the way the highpass is implemented between the two. The Juno highpass switches between fixed filters with different cutoff points, so "off" is likely a true bypass. The DM12 one has a variable cutoff, so even when the HP is at minimum it will be filtering some sub 20Hz frequencies. This won't audibly affect the sound but it will remove DC components from waveforms giving you that appearance of the waves curving towards 0V.

During the chorus comparison part at the end, the Juno has this really pleasing sizzle on the top end which the DM never quite seems to get too. The sounds when theyre both more muted were identical to me though but I was wanting to see you try and reprogram the DM to emulate that top end sizzle after the not is heald for a couple of seconds and you never did. IDK if thats an issue for the DM or if it could be programed in. Kinda new to synths.. love the 106. But weary of buying something so old.

The "sizzle" is noise coming from the chorus unit. The 106 was noisy from the factory but nearly 40 years later, those capacitors are failing. If you want to replicate the noise, just have a droning white noise sound faintly in the background with the chorus enabled.

I’ve owned several 106’s, a Jx-3p, & a Juno 6 at different times. I own a deepmind and did a similar comparison with my 3P. You can get reeeeaallly close to recreating the sounds of the others on the deepmind. I sold my Juno6 after I got the Tal plug-in though. It’s spot on. The deepmind is close, but it could be a monster with an updated chorus. As you mention in the video, the tal chorus plugin is superb. The deepmind is it’s own thing- poly chord- built in effects- exstensive modulation matrix- !aftertouch!- and polyphony will make it a future classic . I wish behringer had kept the push button patch recall though!, menu diving for presets is fine in the studio, but not so great live! - and the favorites menu isn’t much help-(User hint: if you want the immediacy of being able to turn on/off the chorus-or any effect, assign the wet/dry signal to one of the faders of env. 3 in the mod. Matrix😉-you’re welcome!)

I have both of these synths and what it comes down to for me personally is the interface of the Juno 106. There is just something else there for me to be inspired. I really do believe the interface of a synth matters to creative flow. Both are great machines though. Great video as always.

Thanks. There is something great about an immediate interface. It’s part of what makes the 106 so special... and probably why everyone had one and could handle it enough to always get sensible tones from it. No accidentally knocking the cross mod into spaced out madness!

Having a single control per function is great for instant gratification, but it's not so great for flexibility. Almost all the control you have on a Juno-106 is directly available on the DM, and then it just adds a metric shit ton more with minimal menu diving. You can also get two of them new for the price of a single 2nd hand Juno-106. We're spoiled in 2020!

The 12D is my first jump into hardware poly after a bazillion years of various modular and mono. I've been getting lost into pads for days now.. dunno how I'll use em in a mix yet.. but nice to have em at my fingertips. Thanks for the lesson!

great pads - really does the Juno justice once you throw the chorus on top. this seems like a great synth for me to leave in my jam space for those spontaneous jam nights where I don't feel like going back to my apt to grab the moog. Great oscillators, 12 note polyphony and effects - and most of all relatively cheap for the great sounds.

Like you mention before, the 106 has a little bit of more bite on the sound, I think I'm going to buy the DM12d, because is cheaper than the Keyboard. Thank you so much for put in your precious time on these videos 👍👍

If you use the EQ to bring up the upper mids/highs, and do very subtle saturation, you could give the Deepmind that extra bite. With some careful FX tweaking i’m convinced you could get quite close.

It’s funny to me how much people are crazy about the Juno, it was one of my first synthesizers next to the 101, polysix and Alesis ion and if I’m honest without letting nostalgia get in the way, I was much much more likely to go to the Ion for pads and the 101 for bass/leads

They sound very close to me. I like the more precise basses on the 106. But I would definetly rather spend my money on the Deepmind. Still like Pro6 better though. But maybe I'll end up with both, who knows? :)

Fuck, I don't have the money for this but I gotta buy it now. I love the 80's sound patches and I've been looking for something that closely resembles the Juno 60 or 106.
@scottgentile1663

A few things. You played two patches with the chorus and made the comment "they sound really similar" but it doesn't take a trained ear to hear how much better the Juno chorus sounds . The Juno Chorus may very well be the richest chorus ever made. The Deepmind was inspired from the Juno in the looks, not the sound. I can't speak too much about the 106 because, when I owned both the 6 and 106, I sold the 106 as it was just so sterile by comparison. But I had a Deepmind in my studio for a few weeks and did some direct comparisons between the Deepmind and the Juno6, and the tone was very different. Playing an arp on both really made it clear how different they were, and it makes sense as the Juno 6 is like having 6 different mono synths, and it just comes alive like crazy. Whereas the Deepmind sounds sterile, and like a analog modeling synth. Both of these synths, when the chorus is off, sound similarly sterile.

Thanks, you’re right in that they don’t sound the same - but that was never the intention. I was showing how to make them sound similar and demonstrating how to get Juno-ish tones from the Deepmind. A lot of folks may well be trying as it was originally intended to be a Juno clone not only in looks (that’s from direct contact with the designer btw not conjecture). I never say the DM chorus equates to the Juno - it’s clearly different. I wish I’d kept hold of some of my older Rolands like my Jupiter 4 which I suspect had similar qualities to you Juno 6.

Hi Starsky! Erasure in their album "The Innocents" has use a lot of full bass from Juno's 106, maybe 60. I can emulate closely on the real Juno's, but not in any emulation like Deepmind, or so in Roland Boutique counterparts! Something is failed on all emulations, and don't understand what are. May be the chorus? the PWM? or so on... I'm very frustrated with modern recreations of Juno's... Thanks for your comparison, are so excellent. Greetings from Chile!

7:45 The Juno 106 sound much fatter on the straight Saw, which seems to be a result of the cleaner, sharper Saw wave as the oscilloscope shows.

There are two differences I'm hearing between the two. The first, and most noticeable, is that his 106 is seemingly set slightly louder than his DM12. I noticed this across all of the sounds he played. The second is that the DM12 has a slightly 'smoother' sound. Judging by the waveforms on display, this is due to a very slight phase shift across the harmonics that make up the sound. All of the same harmonics are present, and likely at the same levels, but the interplay between the harmonics is slightly different since they peak at slightly different times, and thus have slightly less resonance among the harmonics. This makes the wave sound very slightly softer and gives it a curved appearance. The funny thing is, over the years I've seen comparisons of devices with straight/curved waveforms, and people always seem to have different perceptions of exactly which ones are 'fatter' or 'warmer' every time (usually determined by whichever is more expensive!)

Well, the drift parameters get you pretty close to (OB/P5) VCO territory, but the DM's sub is still just a square wave, and the DM's main DCO lacks a mix control for its waveforms. As for the CS80: no, not without the ribbon controller. Get a Hydrasynth plus DM-12 module, and you'll be smiling ; - )

The basic saw on the DM seems to be a bit less bright than the 106. Maybe I'm hearing a bit more low end information and my ears are telling me there are less highs there. Curious if maybe slight curve on the saw is responsible for that. Maybe the curve gives it a slight bit of sine or triangle quality underneath the tone. Pure speculation. Could be my head phones.
@tehrobotjesus

There is less high frequency content in the Deepmind's saw. I don't think it's so much the curve of the saw, but the lack of a "pip" when it resets. You can see it in the scope.
@nickcrider4309

@@tehrobotjesus Right, it's visible. I guess I'm curious about what contributes the dm12 osc having less harmonics(at least in higher octaves). Seems like it would either need to be the shape of the wave or whatever is happening after it, with the filter and such. When are we going to get knob for "pip"? Haha
@ChamiCh
5 жыл бұрын
it is definitely related to that curve. The frequency content is basically the same between the two synths, but what's different is the *phase* of those harmonics. When you shift the phases of the harmonics very slightly over the frequency range of a waveform, what you get is a slightly 'warping' of that waveform's appearance -- straight saw waves become curved, etc. The audible effect is that harmonics don't *resonate* with each other quite as much, and the wave begins to have a softer, perhaps even warmer tone, depending on the amount of phase shift.

You can also switch from the 4-Pole to the 2-Pole for the VCF. I've found the 2-Pole to give those highs that you were missing when comparing waveforms in the frequency analysis.
