Relive history with this iconic semi-modular synthesizer recreation.
The Behringer 2600 BLUE MARVIN pays tribute to the legendary 2600 synthesizer that shaped the sound of the 1970s and beyond. With pure analog circuitry and a semi-modular design, the BLUE MARVIN authentically recreates the enormous sonic potential of the original. Its triple VCO architecture serves up rich sawtooth, square, sine, triangle and pulse waves to sculpt classic synth tones or trailblaze new musical frontiers.
Recreate Iconic Tones With Vintage Analog Circuitry
Great care has been taken to engineer the BLUE MARVIN's analog signal path to match the 2600's original 1970s circuitry and components. This gives you the power to conjure up virtually any sound imaginable with incredible finesse and ease. Dial in fat bass, searing leads and dreamy ambience from the far reaches of your imagination. With matched transistors and JFETs, the BLUE MARVIN enables you to recreate timeless synth classics or forge your own innovative sounds.
Semi-Modular Design Unlocks Sonic Possibilities
Like the trailblazing 2600, the BLUE MARVIN is a semi-modular synthesizer, giving you flexibility in how you make music. Start playing right away, no patch cables needed. When you're ready, utilize the 93 patchable ins and outs to configure your synth any way you desire. This versatility makes the BLUE MARVIN an extremely powerful tool for sculpting an awe-inspiring diversity of tones to mesmerize your audience.
Triple VCOs Generate Rich Waveforms
At the heart of the BLUE MARVIN are three voltage-controlled oscillators, enabling you to mix and blend sawtooth, square, sine, triangle and pulse waveforms. The multi-mode filter acts as a VCO mixer, with individual VCOs switchable to low frequency mode. Experiment by patching the default waves to new shapes. The possibilities are staggering. Top it off with the filter's resonance control, mode switch and flexible signal routing to craft sounds with richness and complexity.
Texture Your Sound With Onboard Modules
An array of modules let you take your BLUE MARVIN tones to new frontiers. Spice up leads with the ring modulator, add rhythmic interest with the lag processor and sample & hold modules or make your music more spacious with the mechanical spring reverb tank. Shape your sound even further with the envelope follower, noise generator, LFOs and envelope generators. With this level of sound design possibility, your music can reach new heights.
