Behringer ARP 2500 1047 Multimode Filter - Part 2 - Different Filter Responses


"This is the second of two demos of the of the new 1047 'Colin' multimode filter/resonator. In this video, I'm focused on using the 1047 as a filter in different modes - Low Pass, High Pass, Band Pass, Notch. I use both Noise and a Sawtooth waveform."

O.Z. Hall Victor posts

"This video is a follow-up my Victor Part 2 video covering the details of the Behringer Victor module. This eurorack module is a quad digital oscillator which is based on the Prophet VS synthesizer from Sequential Circuits. This technology is called Vector Synthesis. It was the basis for the Korg Wavestation and the Yamaha SY22 and TG33 synthesizers.
Part 3 (this video) continues this detailed tutorial with more Use Cases and a look at software available for the Behringer Victor Module.

EP 1 - New 2500 Modules - AM1004P Oscillator Mixer

video upload by O.Z. Hall

"This video is the first in a series on a number of new modules from Amsynths which are companions to the Behringer ARP 2500 series of eurorack modules.

Besides introducing the series, this video explores the AM1004P expander from Amsynths for the Behringer 1004 VCO in the 2500 series.

Here are excerpts from Amsynths description of this module:

The AM1004P module enables the Behringer 1004 module to be transformed from a T (toggle) version into a P (potentiometer version).

The AM1004P module has individual outputs available on jack sockets. Each waveform can also be mixed, using five small trimmer potentiometers, into the output channel, which has an overall MIX LEVEL potentiometer. and two mix jack socket outputs.

The AMSynths AM1004P fills in a piece of history by recreating the original ARP design using a Behringer 1004 module as a basis for expansion.

This video looks at the original ARP 2500 brochure which included six sample systems. Sample system 5 started with an ARP 2600 and added a wing cabinet with ARP 2500 modules. We create the Sample System 5 using the Behringer ARP 2600 and Behringer ARP 2500 modules in a Behringer Go Case. We also price out this system.

EP 2 - New 2500 Modules - AM1028 Seq Volts use cases

video upload by O.Z. Hall

See the announcement post here.

"This video is the second in a series on a number of new modules from Amsynths which are companions to the Behringer ARP 2500 series of eurorack modules.

This video explores the AM1028 Sequential Volts from Amsynths to expand the Behringer 1027 Sequencer in the 2500 series.

Here are excerpts from Amsynths description of this module:

This 8HP module expands the capability of the Behringer 1027 sequencer by adding an additional column of variable control voltages.

The eight steps of the 1027 are mirrored in the 1028 with three precision control voltage outputs; one at 2V for controlling VCO's and two at 10V for controlling filters, amplifiers and VC env gens.

The AMSynths AM1028 fills in a piece of history by recreating the Slave Module, which we call Sequential Volts.

Behringer 960 Sequential Controller with Z506 Swiss Daisy DSP voice #shorts

video upload by O.Z. Hall

"This is a quick demo of the Z506 Swiss Daisy DSP module in eurorack format, driven by the Behringer 960 Sequential Controller. The Z506 Swiss Daisy DSP is in "Voice + Delay" mode. The left hand controls are VCF cutoff, Resonance, ADSR amount to VCF, fine tune.
The right hand control are Delay Time, Feedback, Dry/Wet mix, Decay/Release time for the AR and ADSR.

Behringer System 55 - First Test

video upload by O.Z. Hall

"The Behringer System 55 does not have any module called 'slew' or 'glide' or 'portamento'.
A 'slew limiter' is the circuit which creates the 'glide/portamento' effect on a synthesizer. It is basically a 6db/octave low pass filter capable of sub audio cutoff frequencies.
In this video with the Behringer System 55, I'm using the 'lowpass' eq in the 923 module as a slew limiter (glide/portamento effect)."
