The original 2600, introduced in the 1970s, boasted an all - discrete transistor design with some op - amps. This unique discrete circuitry gave it a distinct sound that was favored by famous artists such as Jean Michel Jarre, Depeche Mode, and Stevie Wonder. The 2600 - VCO is a compact and highly versatile module. It offers a VCO with four simultaneous waveforms, allowing you to control a wide frequency band for ultimate flexibility. Modular synths were a game - changer in electronic music, and this module takes it to the next level. Features: It's an amazing - sounding VCO module from the '70s. It authentically reproduces the original ARP 2600 circuitry. The VCO has 4 simultaneous waveforms: sine, triangle, saw, and pulse. It offers wide frequency control, from 10 Hz to 10 kHz or 0.03 Hz to 30 Hz in LF mode. PWM can be controlled manually and via external CV input at the same time. It can be switched between LF (keyboard off) and Audio (keyboard on). There are separate outputs for each waveform and 5 CV inputs for pitch control and PWM. 8 controls and switches let you access all important parameters in real - time. Eurorack specs: 16 HP, XX mA +12 V, XX mA -12 V.
Using the Behringer 2600 - VCO is a breeze. First, decide if you want to use it in LF (keyboard off) or Audio (keyboard on) mode. You can switch between these two modes easily. To get different sounds, use the 8 controls and switches to access important parameters in real - time. You can control the frequency of the VCO, which has a wide range from 10 Hz to 10 kHz or 0.03 Hz to 30 Hz in LF mode. For the PWM, you can control it manually or via an external CV input at the same time. Each waveform has a separate output, so you can connect them as you like. There are also 5 CV inputs for pitch control and PWM. When it comes to maintenance, keep it in a dry and clean place. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures. And always handle it gently to prevent any damage to the delicate circuitry inside.
