        I highly doubt that. I recently stumbled upon Rolf here and I’ve watched a number of his videos on YouTube, the article is pretty much written in his style.

        He built a community on his website and is producing content, and while I have no doubt that there are financial interests at play, I really can’t blame anyone for wanting to make a living doing what they love.

          Fair enough, but the image on this post, if you zoom in, you can see many AI artifacts.

            Ah, the image. Yes, I agree - I also noticed AI generated images being used in his videos.

    One nitpick: while the Behringer Neutron is not directly a clone, the VCO V3340 ICs used in the Neutron are clones of the famous CEM3340 by Doug Curtis.

    While that is perfectly legal these days, Doug’s wife and family worked with people to re-issue the original VCO chip (and others), so it sure would have been nice for Behringer to collaborate with them and pay some tribute to Doug.

    Full disclosure: I do own the Neutron myself.
