In this video, Cynthia Millar offers an introduction to the Ondes Martenot, an early electronic instrument that has earned a place in the orchestral repertoire. The Ondes Martenot was created by French inventor Maurice Martenot in 1928. It’s a monophonic instrument and offers a range of expressive control that’s just now beginning to become common on synthesizers. It offers continuous control over volume and pitch, allowing it to be played very expressively.

This episode of Knobs & Switches offers a head-to-head comparison of the Roland SH-5 and the Behringer MS-5, an unofficial copy. The video points out some differences in the MS-5, and some audio differences may be obvious to viewers. But the review ultimately suggests that the Behringer MS-5 build quality is ‘OK’ and that, no matter how close it is to the original, it’s an interesting analog synthesizer. Does the Behringer MS-5 deliver an affordable copy of the Roland SH-5?
