The Behringer BM-13 PHASER is your new go-to box of swirling, sweeping, analog goodness. Whether you’re chasing subtle vintage shimmer or deep resonant sweeps, BM-13 delivers timeless phaser tones with powerful controls for shaping the waveform the way you want.
A Control Freak’s Dream
With hands-on control over sweep, resonance, LFO rate and amount, BM-13 is as tweakable as it is musical. Want to slow things down to a hypnotic pulse? Crank that LFO down to a lazy 0.01 Hz. Feeling spicy? Flip it into high gear for warbly, out-there textures at up to 250 Hz. Add a little grit with the Drive knob, fine-tune your output level and explore either 6-stage or 12-stage phasing – each delivering its own flavor dimension and character.
Plug In and Lose Yourself
From funked-out guitar riffs to synth pads that melt into space, BM-13 is built for exploration. Guitarists and bassists will love how it adds motion without washing out your tone, while keyboardists and synth wizards can drench their patches in analog swirl. Even in the studio, it’s a secret weapon – run vocals, drums, or entire mixes through it for instant vibe and warmth. And with stereo output capability, your sound can stretch wide across the stage or mix.
Built to Play
Modulation doesn’t stop at the stomp switch. BM-13 comes equipped with expression pedal inputs, giving you full control over key parameters from modular gear or performance pedals. Whether you’re a traditional player or an experimental sound-shaper, the Behringer BM-13 PHASER invites you to dive in and make it your own.
"It got too hot in Germany these days, and the heat has brought the monster back to live...
Until 22 July, the legendary Microwave 1 Plug-in is available at a special reduced price! It now comes with a new patch randomizer feature called Mutator, and (🥁) with a new optional green skin, to relive the vibes of the iconic 1994 mad and special 'Mean Green Machine' edition!
"The bass is made with square wave into Diode Dream Vcf with 3 envelopes on the patch and 2 VCAs while sending velocity as I made an accent style sequence to mimic the 303 bassline ! The lead is made with a saw wave into Scota Vcf in bandpass mode and internal filter modulation. Sequencing is made in cubase and drums are samples ."
"Vintage synths are magical for many reasons... but THIS one... Yeah. This one is pure bliss, covered in magical surprises, filled with joy. So let's dig in!!"
"A minimal-ambient piece for norns shield and @somasynths LYRA-8, built from slowly evolving phrases and drones.
norns shield: Runs awake; phrases are altered live with a monome grid. The output goes through a @ChaseBlissAudio MOOD MK II for reverb, and near the end a micro-loop creates a dense cluster of tones.
LYRA-8: Plays drones and short phrases. Its signal is modulated with a BOSS CE-5 chorus, then processed by @strymon NIGHTSKY for filtering and reverb."
"Another real-time programming session, this one done in one take over 24 minutes. Another purely additive sound, using 4 partials. The only external effect used was the 'roomworks' reverb from Cubase."
1. Loopy Pro 2: Polyphonic Clip Playback with MIDI
Explore one of Loopy Pro 2’s most powerful new features: polyphonic clip playback. This tutorial shows how to trigger audio clips using MIDI — either pitched, where each note plays a different pitch of the clip, or sliced, where each note plays a different part of the audio. You’ll learn how to set up MIDI routing to clips, configure playback modes, and fine-tune behavior with features like fade-out-based note decay. We’ll also cover how to use loops as polyphonic targets, letting them sustain while held, and how to add an intro section to act as a sample’s attack before the loop takes over.
2. Loopy Pro 2.0: MIDI Loops & Signal Flow Explained
Learn how to harness the power of MIDI loops in Loopy Pro 2.0. This tutorial walks you through connecting a MIDI controller — whether it’s an external keyboard or the new on-screen keyboard — to a MIDI loop for recording and looping MIDI performances. You’ll also learn how to route that loop to an AUv3 instrument or any other MIDI destination to bring your loops to life. Plus, we’ll take a look at the redesigned mixer and demystify the new signal flow system so you can take full control of your setup.
3. Loopy Pro 2: Organize Your Mixer with Collapsible Sections & Rows
Loopy Pro 2 introduces powerful new ways to keep your mixer tidy. In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to collapse entire sections — like Inputs, Outputs, or Groups — to hide them until you need them. You’ll also see how to collapse individual rows to save space and reduce visual clutter, making it easier to focus on what matters in the moment.
"Welcome to the first episode of the Loopy Pro Artist Spotlight — a new series where I sit down with musicians who use Loopy Pro to talk gear, creative process, and the magic of building music live.
In this premiere episode, I’m catching up with none other than Dub FX — looping legend, street-performer-turned-festival-headliner, and longtime Loopy Pro user. He has been pushing the limits of live vocal looping for over a decade, and we dive deep into how he’s using Loopy Pro 2.0 to run his full live show.
🍩 Loopy Pro 2.0 is out today — July 11! If you’re new here: Loopy Pro is the most powerful and flexible looper DAW around. Whether you’re on stage, in the studio, or building beats in your bedroom, it’s built for musicians who want total control.
