Although a lot of people would shy away from them, Behringer has all sorts of cheap, interesting synths (read: knockoffs) that would be fun for hobbiests for a while.

While I don't trust their stuff to last, a nice modular or SH-101 ripoff for $300 is hard to compete with.

They also threaten to sue journalists for unfavorable reviews and for calling them copycats...


That's always such a weird flex to me, if you make a decent priced knock off why shy away from that label?


I could see unfavorable reviews but their existence now is obvious knockoffs. I'd expect them to invite those comparisons
