Good but not good enough.
Io Eko 29.01.2020
I never had the chance to play a real MS-20 so my opinion is clearly with the K-2 in mind. This is by no means a comparison.

Sound & Synthesis:
- The oscillators and filters sound great.
- The envelopes have a very weird behavior and sustain is not behaving like the sustain we all know and love. This is the case with the original MS20 it's not a Behringer issue.
- There no gate input as it should be considering that this is Eurorack compatible. To trigger an envelope an inverse signal is required so keep in mind that you 'll need a trig converter if you plan to use it with Eurorack.
- The relationship between the max and min behavior of the modulation knobs seems so unstable and unpredictable. It's really hard to find those sweet spots.

Overall design and structure:
This is by far the cheapest of Behringer's synth creations.
- The chassis itself is pretty good. Same as ModelD and Neutron.
- Kobs feel really stiff. I mean really stiff. Some times it's so hard to turn them around that my fingers often slide around the knob.
- The MIDI input doesn't look very stable. I have the feeling that if I'm not too careful while patching a cable in and out I could end up damaging the connector.

Yes, I love my Neutron, ModelD and Deepmind 12 but this looks nothing like them. I think I should have bought the Pro1 instead. Not happy at all.

it is a tribute, not a clone.
Dellaengineer 02.03.2020
The unit come in a nice package, with all the necessary to test it right away. The construction is quite sturdy, apart the CV connection which seems a bit more fragile than others.
Sound wise... it is ok -- despite being analog, it is a bit cold. It does not respond or is not stable as the synth it is inspired from, which i do have for comparison.
Nice gear, not a game-changer.

Okay for entry level synth enthusiasts
Vangelis 23.10.2019
I was expecting it with lots of excitement. It arrived in a week in standard great quality packing from thomann. Synth is a bit lower in volume , about 3-4 dB from rest of my synths and needed some cranking from mixer. Sound is fine, modulation capabilities push the synth to some quirky sounds however I think it sounds a bit sterile and misses some character. The filters are nice and scream if u look into this sound. I sold it after a week as it couldn't sit nicely in the mix despite recording some cool riffs.
