Behringer MULTIMODE FILTER/RESONATOR 1047 Module

This is the Behringer MULTIMODE FILTER/RESONATOR 1047 Module. An authentic reproduction of the original “System 2500” circuitry from the 70’s that can fit in a standard Eurorack case. The best part? It’s at a very affordable price. Mix the MULTIMODE FILTER/RESONATOR MODULE 1047 in with your existing rig or start your modular synth journey from here. Either way you’re sure to have a lot of fun.

CLASSINC RECREATION

The first 2500 series synth modules came out in the 70s and tended to be extremely expensive. They were mainly all discrete transistor designs with some op-amps as at the time op-amps were high cost. The discrete circuitry gave the modules a very distinctive sound and were used by artists like The Who, Jean Michel Jarre, Vangelis, Kraftwerk and so many more, giving us some of the greatest records and film soundtracks ever heard. Modular synths were a landmark development in electronic music and today, it’s about to get better.

MULTIMODE FILTER RESONATOR

The MULTIMODE FILTER/RESONATOR MODULE 1047 is a classic voltage controlled 12 dB per octave state variable filter, the filter is a matched transistor design for a vintage sound. The 1047 filter is equipped with a coarse and fine filter frequency controls, a resonance (Q) control which acts on all 4 filter outputs, a resonance limit switch prevents signal overload when high levels of resonance are used, the notch frequency/fc control allows the notch frequency to be adjusted up or down from fc as set by the frequency controls, 2 summed frequency CV attenuators and a resonance (Q) CV attenuator for maximum flexibility, the signal input is also equipped with an attenuator. All this gives you endless possibilities of filter curve shape to create the ultimate sound.

INS AND OUTS

The 1047 gives you comprehensive connectivity, filter signal input, FCV 1 and FCV 2 inputs can be used for filter frequency control or modulation, the Q CV input allows modulation of Q and resonance. The independent low-pass, high-pass, band-pass and notch filter outputs are all available simultaneously to feed multiple filter signals to other modules.

EURORACK READY

Installing the MULTIMODE FILTER/RESONATOR MODULE 1047 is easy as it is designed to fit into a standard Eurorack case. Just connect the power cable to the power supply and screw in the module using the included screws. This allows for the 1047 to be mixed with other synth modules for a truly unique set up.

BEHRINGER MULTIMODE FILTER/RESONATOR 1047 MODULE FEATURES:

• Classic-sounding 1047 analog multi-mode filter and resonator module from the ‘70s
• Authentic reproduction of the circuitry from the “2500” Series
• Consists of a highly resonant 12 dB low-pass/high-pass and 6 dB band-pass filters capable of providing a wide variety of formant shaping and tonal modulation
• Filter simultaneously provides high-pass, band-pass, low-pass and notch outputs
• Coarse and fine controls adjust the cut-off frequency of all four filter outputs from 16 Hz to 16 kHz with 2 external control signal inputs and attenuators
• Resonance (Q) control adjusts the level of the resonant peak of the low-pass and high-pass filters and the band-pass filter Q from 0.5 to over 256 with an external control signal input and attenuator
• Resonance (Q) control also adjusts the notch filter Q and depth in addition to adding resonance
• Resonance limit switch can be used to prevent overload when high levels of resonance are required
• Notch freq/fc control allows the notch frequency to be offset above or below fc while simultaneously allowing resonant peaks at fc using the resonance (Q) control
• Input attenuator control allows you to optimize signal level and coloration
• Eurorack specs: 16 HP, 55 mA+12 V, 45 mA -12 V
