Looking and listening to the presets on virtual Minimoogs is a good way to learn. Sometimes the patch name gives you a clue (e.g., if the patch is called LuckyMan...).

Has anyone figured out how to disable the Sleep feature on the NTS-1? I did the update but can't find out how to turn it off. edit: Here is how: Hold down the Reverb button while powering up the NTS1. Then rotate the TYPE knob to 'SLP', and rotate knob B to '0'.

I remember years ago, the band decided to try Roundabout. I said 'Hang on a moment', then hit a big E minor chord, recorded and reversed it in about 20 seconds' time. Then told the band 'OK, I'm ready!' This was back during the ASR-10 days.

The Polyend Poly2 might do some/all of what you need. It's a eurorack module.

That was a spot-on vocal imitation of the Ondes Martenot / theremin sound. I remember the Magic Egg vinyl insert in Keyboard Mag too! That was over 30 years ago

That would be amazing! Particularly for motorized faders. You could make presets out of some buttons, and visually look at your drawbars / faders to quickly see what you dialed up. Will MIDI 2.0 address any of these tricks with virtual instruments?

I have sometimes wished my Nord Stage 2 had 4 or 5 'external' sections and no internal sections. Nord is missing a trick by not making a MIDI controller board.

Not that I have noticed. It's not a great action overall but it doesn't feel uneven.

I have a red MS-1. The keys sometimes scratch me when I play. I think it's the sides or the bottom of the keys. The action itself is OK. The biggest disappointment for me is that the MS-1 won't send pitch bend over MIDI. It would make a great controller otherwise, especially with the velocity CV out.

Thanks Markyboard! I think the D is 70hp, so I'd have 34 left, not 20. But your point probably still stands... I should get a bigger case. Or leave the D intact and then fill up the case. Thanks for the suggestions on modules. Great tip on VCAs & footpedal.

I'm thinking of buying (or making) a 104hp Eurorack case, and throw in the Behringer D along with some complementary eurorack modules. Things like a sample&hold, extra LFOs, and so on. Maybe even effects. The idea is to stick with the D for the oscillators / filter, but add useful stuff. Any suggestions? There won't be much space, so I'll go for mostly small hp modules.

I've got a Behringer D and a MS101. I figure they'd make a great pair. But I can't get the D to respond to the MS101 bender/mod wheel. Is there a way to do this?

I have one in the basement with 3 or 4 broken keys. It's the first generation. Unless the 2nd gen is much better, I'd say no.

There is a David Battino story on this in the latest issue of 'Waveform' magazine, if anyone gets that. He made a sort of MIDI switcher from a TRS line mixer.

A couple weeks ago, I used this feature to find a new way to 'rickroll' someone. Me & the wife are sitting on the couch, and I start to play the Never Gonna Give You Up video at .25 speed. After a while she asks me 'What are you listening to?' I don't respond. About 30 seconds later she gets a look of recognition on her face and laughs.
