The Behringer MS-101 is an analogue Synthesizer with 32 Full-Size Keys, 3340 VCO with 4 Simultaneous Waveforms, VCF, ADSR, 32-Step Sequencer, Arpeggiator and Live Performance Kit.
Features:
• Amazing monophonic synthesizer with authentic 3340 analog oscillator for insanely fat music creation
• 32 semi-weighted full-size keys for great playability
• Pure analog signal path based on legendary VCO, VCF and VCA designs to recreate the classic sound performance
• Oscillator with 4 simultaneously-mixable waveforms: saw, triangle, square/pwm and octave-divided square sub-oscillator

Modern Incarnation of a Classic Performance Monosynth

In the 1980s and ’90s, a new wave of musicians slung a simple monosynth over their shoulders and stole center stage from their guitar-brandishing bandmates. The Behringer MS-101 is a delightfully affordable homage to that iconic synthesizer, sporting all of its cool features — and then some. Behringer took great care in engineering the MS-101, staying true to the original analog circuitry and VCO, VCF, and VCA designs. This meticulous attention to detail is what gives the MS-101 its ultra-flexible sound-shaping abilities, which let you quickly whip up everything from insanely fat basses and scorching leads to dazzling effects. Equipped with a 32-step sequencer, arpeggiator, and attachable hand grip, the MS-101 is a fantastic performance synth. And with its 32 full-size semi-weighted keys, pure analog signal path, and authentic 3340 oscillator with four simultaneously mixable waveforms plus ultra-flexible VCF and VCA filters, the Behringer MS-101 may well become your favorite synth.

Authentic 3340 VCO, four simultaneous waveforms, FM, and more

The analog architecture of the Behringer MS-101 is built upon its authentic 3340 VCO (Voltage-controlled Oscillator) with four waveforms — all of which can be active simultaneously for seriously complex timbres. Waveforms include sawtooth, triangle, square (with PWM), and an octave-divided square sub oscillator. What's more, the VCO can be adjusted across a broad 4-octave range. This impressive flexibility gives you the tools you need for unfettered creativity. As a bonus, the MS-101 features the "Nova Mod" that many players made to their original synths in the '90s, adding VCF frequency modulation with six available FM sources. Between its multiple waveforms and FM, the MS-101 takes you far beyond the sonic capabilities of the original.
