The first SYSTEM 55, 35, and 15 synth modules in the early '70s were super pricey. They used discrete transistor designs because op - amps were costly then. This unique discrete circuitry gave the modules a one - of - a - kind sound, which was featured on great records by artists like Keith Emerson, Stevie Wonder, and Tangerine Dream. Modular synths were a big deal in electronic music, and now it's getting even better. The Behringer CM1A is here to take it up a notch. It converts MIDI signals to analog control voltages for modular synths. With a high - resolution 16 - Bit Texas Instruments DAC, it offers excellent pitch accuracy. You can control your modular synth with a MIDI keyboard, sequencer, or DAW. There are dual trigger outputs for envelope generators, and you can choose between V - trigger, S - trigger, or both for maximum flexibility. It meets Eurorack specs: 6 HP, 70 mA +12 V, 10 mA - 12 V.


Using the Behringer CM1A is easy. First, connect it to your modular synthesizer. You can then use a MIDI keyboard, sequencer, or DAW to send MIDI signals to the module, and it will convert them into analog control voltages for your synth. When using the dual trigger outputs to control envelope generators, you can select the trigger type (V - trigger, S - trigger, or both) according to your needs. As for maintenance, keep it in a dry and clean place. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or humidity. When you're not using it, turn it off to save power and extend its lifespan. If you encounter any issues, make sure all the connections are secure and check the power supply.
