The Behringer CAT is an ultra - affordable synthesizer that pays homage to the iconic models. It lets you effortlessly create virtually any sound with incredible precision. Its pure analog signal path, based on authentic VCO, VCF, and VCA designs, combines with 4 variable and simultaneous oscillator shapes and Duophonic/Paraphonic capabilities. Owning this is like having a personal time machine to explore the past or shape the future without any drawbacks. Key features include a dual VCO design for super - fast music creation, an authentic reproduction of 'CAT SRM II' circuitry, 4 unique oscillator shapes, independent oscillator control in Duophonic/Paraphonic mode, multiple modulation sources for oscillators and filters, a classic filter with self - resonance, a dedicated analog LFO, 2 analog Envelope Generators, a white noise generator, a 16 - voice Poly Chain, a Eurorack solution, 47 direct controls, audio input for external sound, external control I/O, and comprehensive USB/MIDI implementation.
Using the Behringer CAT synthesizer is a breeze. First, power it on and start by adjusting the oscillator shapes to get the basic sound you want. You can choose from sawtooth, triangle, modulated pulse, and sub - octave square. For more complex sounds, use the multiple modulation sources for both the oscillators and the filter. To expand your sound options, connect multiple synthesizers using the 16 - voice Poly Chain. When it comes to external sound, use the audio input to process outside sources. Remember to handle the 47 controls with care as they give you direct access to important parameters. In terms of maintenance, keep it in a dry and clean environment. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or humidity. If you're not using it for a long time, unplug it from the power source. And make sure to update the USB/MIDI settings according to your needs for seamless operation.
