Behringer Wasp Deluxe Clone - Part 1 - Overview and Comparison 

I have the Jasper DIY Wasp Clone which I built and was argued in the forums that Behringer copied. The ENH waveform stands for "Enhanced" and IS PWM. These are pulse width modulated square waves, controlled by simple fixed 0.3Hz LFOs - the same as implemented on the Gnat’s single oscillator.

As always clearly explained and very interesting

Great video! really give an insight into this synth.

The ENH was the PWM on the OSCar, which was made by the same guys. So I guess they wanted to pay homage to that synthesizer, although it's only confusing.

I'm modding my novation bass station rack to add a an SH101 sub-osc, Im thinking of doing the same on the wasp deluxe, it definitely fattens it up

cool !!!

I use the BEND control a lot.... I don't consider it tuning, it's like having the little lever or pitch wheel on the left

I was hoping this video had an original wasp in the studio to compare too.

The original wasp had digital oscillators.

Great video. Great synth (I’ll avoid politics as much as I can……). EDP were fantastic

Good video. It’s helpful to hear your informed assessment. Would the average synth person be able to detect the real one from the Wasp Deluxe?

Not receiving pitch bend over midi seriously drives me crazy.

Killer 👊

After when you posted this video, 2 years ago, you probably know what ENH means now lol. The Behringer Wasp has been for ages now been my GOTO for fat bass sounds. I have a Roland Jd-xi and love it as a Groovebox style synth (I have an MC-303 as well), I think everyone that agrees that has one realises that it lacks in Analogue capabilities. This fills the gap for me

I assumed "enh" was short for "enhanced" as a means of describing PWM on the Gnat

Aren’t the filters 12dB vs 24? Otherwise very great overview!

I got a industrial type drum beat out of my wasp by mistake. Have photo /vid of the patch if anyone's interested.

does it found like a wasp? i’ve played the real thing and i always feel like i’ve gotten electrostatics shock after playing it. there’s no point buying this if it’s just another new subtractive synth, but it it stings like the real wasp then i really would want it. what confuses me is that they used digital oscillators? maybe to gain control over tuning? i am worried, now they’ve announced the polyvoks that they’ll “tame” that too? that would suck. the polyvoks is like a raging beast!

No double triggering? Interesting.

Drone ?? - that’s a waste of a good synth

Another overcooked review. No need for Oscilloscopes and all that stuff and nonsense. If you like the sound it makes, and it makes you happy - it's for you. (It's not a 'Drone Machine" by any means - It's a very versatile 2 Synth)

I bought one, had it 3 months, sold it. Missed it. Bad. 18 months later: I bought one again. I’m not ever letting it go. For a monophonic entry level synth? You can’t beat it for the price. Just wish the one knob on far left was a slider, like all other synths. Wish it had more spread too. It doesn’t even go up or down by one octave. Virtually useless. Everything else?: A fakken plus!
