Behringer VCS3, PRO-16 Cancelled?
It looks like Behringer may be cancelling plans for their EMS VCS3 knockoff and Pro-16 synthesizer.
We have seen reports that Sweetwater has cancelled pre-orders for these synths (right):
“A couple of users in the Behringer Facebook group are reporting that their Sweetwater preorders for the Behringer Pro-16 and VCS 3 have been cancelled, allegedly due to discontinued development.”
Behringer has never really officially introduced either of these synths, but they’ve previewed their EMS Synthi VCS3 knockoff previously, and showed the Pro-16 synth at the 2025 NAMM Show.
Because of this, it’s unclear whether there’s an actual change in status on this, or if the lack of clear availability date made it misleading for retailers to be taking pre-orders.
