Behringer 2600 Analog Semi-Modular Synthesizer

Immerse Yourself in a Semi-Modular Sonic Wonderland

Few synthesizers are as legendary as the original 2600, and the Behringer 2600 faithfully brings that iconic semi-modular design into a modern, accessible format. Housed in a rugged 8U rackmountable chassis, this powerful analog synthesizer delivers vintage character, hands-on control, and near-limitless sound design possibilities.

With a fully analog signal path inspired by classic 1970s circuitry, the Behringer 2600 combines a normalled signal flow for instant results with 93 patch points for deep modular exploration. Whether you’re recreating timeless electronic sounds or building entirely new sonic textures, the 2600 invites experimentation at every turn.

Classic Analog Architecture

At the heart of the Behringer 2600 are three powerful analog VCOs, each offering multiple waveforms and rich modulation options. Pulse width modulation on Oscillators 2 and 3, ring modulation, sample & hold, and noise sources all combine to create a massive tonal palette — from huge basses and searing leads to evolving atmospheres and experimental effects.

Choose between two legendary filter responses — the 4012 and 4072 4-pole VCF modes — to sculpt everything from smooth, musical sweeps to aggressive, resonant tones that defined entire generations of electronic music.

Semi-Modular Freedom

The Behringer 2600’s semi-modular design means you can start creating immediately using the normalled signal path, or dive deep using its extensive patch bay. With 93 patch points and full Eurorack compatibility, the 2600 integrates seamlessly into modular systems or stands proudly as a complete sound-design workstation.

Voltage processors, lag circuits, portamento, interval latch, and dual envelope generators (ADSR and AR) give you fine-grained control over dynamics and modulation — all accessible through a tactile front panel packed with sliders and switches.

Modern Connectivity & Performance

Designed for today’s studios and stages, the Behringer 2600 features USB/MIDI and CV connectivity, allowing effortless integration with DAWs, controllers, and modular gear. A built-in digital spring reverb emulation adds classic ambience, while stereo outputs, headphone monitoring, and an external audio preamp expand creative possibilities even further.
