So the names “Soul” and “Spirit” appears to be connected with the form factor rather than the synth itself. This is much more like the $99 ProVS.
It’s early with this so i could still be wrong.

I wonder what the polyphony is. Also, what does it sound like?

I think it’s a mono/paraphonic synth, sorta like the Volca Keys.

This is purely analog ( the ProVS is hybrid ). There also appears to be no display, again comparing to the ProVS.
The copy does say polyphonic.
its been minutes and no-one has come up with ‘Satans soul’
nice to see full midi cc on an analog cheap box.
the keyboard on this is twice the octave of the spirit…
unless theyre different sizes overall.

I think they are.
Comment on B Facebook page from Behringer says there is a Soul size, and a Spirit size.
Also expect a lot more of both.

A 101/202/106 to start with.
Anyway, will keep an eye out for other threads
I’m off to look through jp8 vids.
A comment from Behringer says, “it is polyphonic and paraphonic.”
Make of that what you will.
Oh god another one!
I can totally see Behringer coming out with a tiny $49.99 TB-303.
bring it.
and a 202.

I think a display is not needed, the controls are right there on the front panel.
The sequencer has a motion sequencer too which should be fun.
Interesting concept, but I agree these new synths that Behringer has teased last few days are so ugly!

They are basically using the definitions as explained by Marc Doty here:
and
“soul”? surely, you jest.
yea theyre really weird lookin 
wouldn’t look out of place in some tobacco-stained aul lad pub in Ireland circa 1970.

I really like the look of it. If the sound is good this is a great space filler

According to SynthAnatomy.
Behringer says “Saturn has 3 note polyphony with 1 paraphonic filter. Polyphony describes the amount of notes you can simultaneously play while paraphony defines the articulation of the filters”
ADDED : Responding to @what_gives above.

Again as i already said near the top of the thread “Soul” is a size series designation that Behringer is using.

It looks like Behringer has two keyboard colors so far. This gold sort of color, and a white silver sort of color like on the ProVS. We’ll see if those colors hold, production is many months away.
nice to see this classic synth finally get the respectful homage it deserves
