Crazy amount of synth for the money

DivingInSpace, 31.07.2020

I bought this synth as my first analogue synth. The plan is to use it both for recording, and eventually put together a live setup, and the fact that it is semi modular and has a great sequencer makes it the perfect start for this. While it only has one oscillator, this is still a very capable synth. The patch points makes it very flexible (especially for use together with future gear), and the sequencer makes it possible to do some very interesting bass lines.

Pros:
Cheap
Solid Build
Easy to incorporate with future gear
Nice and Beefy sound
Includes patch cables

Cons:
Only one oscillator (with two waveforms)
No release on the envelope
only 1/8 jack output

More fun the more I learn

Bjørnar, 13.11.2019

I'm new to modulars/semi-modulars. When I received the Crave and started playing with it, my first thought was "Ok, this thing is a liiiitle bit more basic than I was expecting" - but that didn't last for long.

Soon I had Googled my way to patches for the very similar synth from another manufacturer that I won't name (you probably know which other synth has 32 connections) and it opened my mind and I realized the real potential of the Crave.

This thing can really make a lot of nice sounds, especially for something at this price level!

Pros:
- A LOT of routing options for a beginner's semi-modular
- The oscillator (and envelope) sounds very nice, powerful and punchy
- Build quality is top notch. It's built like a tank
- Very smooth potentiometers that feel like they will last for a long time. Very sturdy, with no play.
- Patch-compatible with the other very similar synth (you know which)
- The sequencer is more advanced than I first thought. I recommend to read the manual to learn it fully.
- Configuring the "Assign" output to "Sequencer random" and patching it through the "Multiple" I/O's (or stackable cables) to inputs like e.g. VCO mod, LFO rate and VCF mod gives hours of fun.
- The side panels seem to be wood or at least wooden laminate as far as I can tell (not plastic as a Youtube reviewer recently said)

Cons:
- A 6.3mm TRS jack output would have been nice instead of the 3.5mm TS in the patch bay
- Input level of "Ext. audio" is -5V to +5V (that means the output from other line-level gear will be very low in volume
- Maybe I'm just doing something wrong, but I wish the sequencer would act more like a 303 when setting the gate length to max (the notes don't quite merge with the next note when gate length is 100% and glide is on, there's a tiny gap)
- Thomann's product page for the Crave says it has an ADSR envelope, but it's actually ADS
- On my unit the D# key on the sequencer "keyboard" is a bit more difficult than the rest. It has to be pushed exactly in center to trigger, unlike the rest of the keys which trigger both in center and sides. I assume this something that can be easily fixed by re-adjusting the placement of the plastic keys slightly. But I won't try as it's not too bothersome so far, and it might just fix itself after more use.

Fantastic Value for Great Sounds

HamishTheHuman, 28.04.2020

This synth is a fantastic introduction to modular synthesis if you are new to it and is able to create some fantastically nuanced and striking sounds (very similar to the Moog Mother32).

The built-in sequencer is very usable for banking some cool ideas but I would not recommend trying to do any performing with it. The keys are small and clicky and don't lend themselves to improvisation.

Mine came with its oscillator slightly out of tune but it is able to be tuned using a small flat head screwdriver if you have the same issue. The general build quality is sturdy with a metal body and sturdy knobs. though it is nowhere near the same quality as something like the Moog Mother 32, however, considering the price as well as the sounds this thing can make, It is unrivalled.

WOW

Ecco Aqua, 28.07.2020

the sound is amazing, very very fitting for 303 style rave leads and basses as well as getting this unique somewhat moogish oberheimish sound. Truly a great instrument for beginner to expert, behringer is making big moves with this
