Although I knew about the WASP synthesizer I was not familiar with its sound, and so the introduction of the Behringer WASP Deluxe left me feeling like 'another mono synth'.
Until I saw the introduction video from Behringer: I love the sound and timbral variety the WASP offers, and I understand the enthusiasm some have for that filter.

Never understood the hype over the WASP, alls you need is its filter really, the rest is fairly hohum. I feel you can do a WASP sound with a MicroFreak and it has a touch capacitive keyboard which completes the quirkiness of the original EDP synth. But if Behringer want to complete their clone army, the WASP is needed.

wasp, yea just another in the list of differant look
if you had several of them they might beat against each others wave to make something...

but then again... radias is a better box... or even 4 of the model d units stacked..
I had my head phones on...the wasp sounded thin... unless it was jut the production recording of the demo...
but that was a behringer promo demo....

if I was them I would to have done a few sounds with the bare unit..
then do the rest with a 2000 behringer effects unit in the audio chain...
and then stack a few of the wasp units!!
get the multi tone thing working...

it just sounded like a basic one osc unit...
I did not catch a price on the unit yet..
if they were lets say 150.00 each then you could get 4 of them for 600.00
add in a 2000 effects unit for 200.00
yea a single radias rack sounds better to me...
at least for the money...

Not sure what this is about?????

Maybe a polyphonic version of the D?

While it does not have the fatness of the model D I would not describe the sound of the WASP as ‘thin’. I quite like it, but if someone is interested in the filter only then the Doepfer WASP filter module would be a better choice (and a cheaper one).

Yeah it's not thin but not anything that isn't doable with other synths. Its character definitely comes from the filter. I've looked into getting a Doepher WASP filter, for some reason they are cheaper than any of their other filters. There was a Mode Machines WASP filter box with an LFO on it. It's discontinued now but last I looked (about a year ago) there is a good amount of new old stock around.

I like how the video has the employee saying he thinks they could be releasing too many synths. Nice to see the company are aware of their public image.
