Roaring Pocket Synth
I really like these small-footprint synth ever since I discovered the Volcas way back when. Their limitations can be a source of creativity and are a lot more fun than scrolling through the endless preset lists of software plugins.
So a decade after Korg introduced their range, Behringer enters the ring with their Minis and Micros.
Not much bigger than your average hand, it still sounds powerful and crisp. Having basically only two control pots, it requires a bit of menu diving to edit the sounds, but especially after the recent firmware update I haven't got any complaints in that regard.
The lack of a Midi In jack in whatever form is a bit of a bummer, but the fact that such a device costs only €49 in 2023/2024 is astonishing to say the least.

Great little synth
Bought for toying around but all ready used it in a proDiction and integrated it into my liveset. All your favorites from the 90s dance era.
Tiny buttons that feel like they could die on you first touch but it’s actually surprisingly well built. Love it

Top Synth für den Preis
Der Sound ist einfach nur Top, mehr voices als 4 wären auch toll gewesen aber darüber kann man sich nicht für den Preis beschweren. Die Bauqualität ist nicht schlecht, bei mir wackelt der kleine synth nur ein wenig auf dem Tisch. Die Menüs sind etwas nervig, man kann nicht mehr also 2 Parameter gleichzeitig einstellen, welche man nicht einmal festlegen kann. Seit dem neuesten Update gibt es einen “Mixer” zwischen OSC 1 und OSC 2, etwas, was ich am Anfang vermisst hatte, da man ja sonst den Klang der Noise nicht runter drehen könnte. Der Arp funktioniert auch wie er soll und es gibt einen praktischen Chord Modus, welcher sehr praktisch ist. Das einzige, was ich wirklich vermisse ist ein sequencer aber man kann ihn ja einfach mit z.B. Ableton verbinden und darüber eine Sequenz abspielen. Eine extra 5-Pin MIDI-Schnittstelle wäre auch toll gewesen aber da wäre der synth bestimmt teurer.
Alles in allem, ein toller synth, speziell wegen dem günstigen Preis und der Größe, dieser Synth passt in jedes Setup.

Nice little synth!
Great sound for such a tiny thing! It’s a bit menu divey, but to be expected given the size. I’m loving using my iPad as a sequencer with it.
Connectivity is limited with just USB C, which is a shame, but perfectly usable! Knobs are also a bit flimsy, but again still usable.
It might look like a toy, but I can see myself using this in productions. For £50 you can’t really go wrong!

Woow!
Dont be fooled by its size, it sounds awesome and juicy, yes 4 voice is kind of limiting, but .... 49 eur for a big sounding synth - is a must!

Nice little synth
Amazing what you can do with 51euros! This little synth is excellent! The only con (big one though) is the lack of MIDI. It only connects to a MIDI HOST device via USB-C (computer/phone/tablet/MPC is OK). When I have some time I will try to connect it to my KORG SQ-64 sequencer for DAWless setup and return to tell you more.
Edit: Samsung Galaxy tab and phone ,Cubase on Windows, all OK as expected. Korg SQ64 sequencer, it does not work.
