The D Goes Poly!

The first truly portable analog synthesizer was released in 1971. Although it was rather pricey and could be temperamental, keyboard heavies of the era were quick to embrace it; and in the ensuing decades, its celebrated sounds graced countless concerts, records, and film scores. Now we are excited to present to you Behringer’s homage to that iconic monosynth, and there are some exciting surprises waiting for all synthesists who have been aching to get their hands on one of these legendary synths. First off, the Behringer Poly D packs four voices of polyphony — instead of one — inside its classic, 37-key wood-trimmed chassis; and second — it is amazingly affordable! Otherwise, it packs all the features of the original — and then some.

Insanely fat sounds

The inspired synth tracks laid down in the 1970s and ’80s are inscribed in the annals of progressive rock, jazz fusion, new wave, and synth-pop forever, making them fully classic in every sense. The Poly D’s pure analog signal path with renowned VCO, VCF and VCA circuits, lets you re-create all that storied magic — or craft original, incurably obese sounds and blaze your own musical path.

Your musical time machine

With the Behringer Poly D, you can quickly and easily whip up virtually any monophonic — or polyphonic — analog synth sound you can dream up. The all-analog signal path is based on authentic VCO, VCF, VCA, and ladder filter designs working in concert with four fully analog triangle/square wave VCOs (the original had three). Playing a Poly D is like firing up your own musical time machine, where you can go retro — or craft the future!
