Behringer

Create superfat bass and lead tones to stunning effects with the Behringer CRAVE, an all-analog semi-modular synthesizer that leverages old-school circuit designs into a modern performance instrument. Loosely based on the Moog Mother 32, the CRAVE features a 3340 voltage-controlled oscillator used by legendary Prophet 5 synthesizer and a classic, switchable high-/low-pass 24 dB/octave ladder filter made famous by Moog synthesizers.The onboard 32-step sequencer generates custom patterns that can be saved into one of 64 memory slots, while the arpeggiator features 8 patterns that you can interact with by playing chords. The front panel is adorned with 47 real-time controls and an 18x14 I/O matrix patchbay, allowing you to interface with the entire world of Eurorack synthesizers. You'll be amazed by CRAVE's tone-shaping capabilities.Benefits Analog synthesizer with legendary Prophet 5 VCO design allows for insanely fat music creationPure analog signal path based on authentic VCO, VCF, and VCA designsSuper-rich oscillator with pulse and sawtooth wave outputs for ultimate soundsClassic Moog 24 dB ladder filter with resonance for legendary sound performanceSwitchable low/high pass filter mode for enhanced sound creationModern and easy-to-use 32-step sequencer with 64 onboard storage slotsAdvanced arpeggiator with wide patterns for great sound effectsDedicated and fully analog triangle/square wave LFO16-voice Poly Chain allows combining multiple synthesizers for up to 16 voice polyphonySemi-modular design with default routings requires no patching for immediate performance18x14 I/O matrix for incredibly vast and flexible patching optionsNoise generator dramatically expands waveform generation47 controls give you direct and real-time access to all important parametersExternal audio input for processing external sound sourcesComprehensive MIDI implementation with MIDI channel and Voice Priority selectionAuthentic Circuits Authentic 3340 OscillatorCRAVE s 3340 Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO) provides your choice of pulse or reverse-sawtooth waveforms. When pulse is selected, the width can be varied using the Shape switch, for narrow, square wave, or wide pulse, with a tuning range of 1 full octave. The VCO can be modulated via the envelope or the low-frequency oscillator (LFO). Performance is further enhanced by the Mix control, which balances the levels of the internal VCO and noise generator. This amazing flexibility gives you the tools to hone your sound.Versatile VCFThe very heart of CRAVE s sound is its Classic Moog 24 dB ladder filter, which lets you freely experiment with the Cutoff Frequency, Resonance, and Modulation, to dial in the perfect sound. CRAVE s filter Mode switch can be set to either low- or high-pass for selecting the range of your choice.16-Note Poly Chain Ready While it is a monophonic instrument (one note at a time), CRAVE's 16-note Poly Chain function lets you combine multiple synthesizers for up to 16-voice polyphony and provides vastly improved reliability and stability over its 1970s and '80s predecessors.Snappy Envelope CRAVE's Envelope generator features Attack, Decay, and Sustain knobs that help you craft incredible sounds, plus a Sustain On/Off switch, which can either sustain the note for as long as the key is held, or start the decay as soon as the attack setting times out.Sequencer, Arpeggiator, and LFO Onboard Sequencer and ArpeggiatorCRAVE s sequencer allows you to program up to 32 steps of notes and rests and save them as a pattern. You can record, save, and recall up to 64 patterns, all of which can be stored in 8 banks, each holding up to 8 patterns. Your sequences can be played either in Keyboard mode, where you create and store the pattern, or Step mode, which allows you to interact while composing a pattern. The onboard Arpeggiator features 8 patterns (you can use just by playing a chord, which the arpeggiator then sequences through your selected pattern. Both the sequencer and arpeggiator
