Behringer D Vs MiniMoog Model D - THE REMATCH - Technical Video
Following the first “Shootout” video I made between a MiniMoog Model D and a Behringer D or “Boog” as it's being called online I have taken some feedback from the community and with the suggestions made I have spent an entire evening doing a much more technical comparison of these synthesizers. NOTE this video will probably be very boring for some viewers, my apologies, I do not know how to spice up a video like this, but if you are curious how these 2 synths stack up on a deeper level and have about an hour to burn then give it a spin! In this video I will be covering the following
1- Comparing individual oscillator wave forms one by one (1, 2 and 3).
2- Comparing oscillators with stacked wave forms
3- Some low-pass filter sweeps with varying amounts of resonance
4- Tested the Overdrive circuit
5- Tested the high-pass filer on the Behringer D – (is not a feature on the MiniMoog, but I had questions about it)
Consistency is king -
For this video I uses the iZotope Insight plugin to monitor loudness levels and get the audio spectrum. Audio is played back via a MIDI riff I played and is triggered for each sound. In addition I used a free Max for Live oscilloscope - You can get that for free below:

1- No separate offsetting of oscillators 2 and 3 due to noticeable differences in pot positioning - It can be done, but if you "go by the numbers" on the dials they will sound different.
2- Wave forms compared include all but the Triangle, the video was getting too long so I skipped that one for the sake of time.
3- No modulation or envelopes
Conclusion from Marshal on the whole Boog vs Moog thang -
So again, there are some differences in these synths sonically and that is OK. Both sound great and I highly recommend both!
Let me know what you think of these synths? Do you own either? Which is your favorite?
