Behringer SYSTEM 55 Complete Modular Synthesizer with 38 Modules - Secondhand

Full Description

Explore modular synthesis

With the advancements in modern technology, it's now easier than ever to capture the fabled sound of '70s modular synthesis in a compact and portable self-contained Eurorack. Each module included with the SYSTEM 55 recreates a specific discrete transistor design that gives the modules their distinctive and sought-after sound. Used by world-famous artists throughout the '70s and onwards, you can now emulate the essence and character of some of the greatest synthesis sounds ever captured on record.

The complete package

A pre-assembled kit, the SYSTEM 55 provides you with a platform to let your creativity shine. Jam-packed with 38 vintage-sounding synth modules spread across not one, but two EURORACK GO cases, the SYSTEM 55 lets you dive in and explore modular synthesis without the worry of setting up these complicated machines. All the modules come assembled into the EURORACK GO case, meaning all you need is a simple power cable to get started with your modular synthesis journey. Should you ever need more than what is included with the SYSTEM 55, there is up to 144HP of available space to expand your collection and broaden your tonal horizons.

Start your modular journey

Have you ever wanted to start exploring modular synthesis but have felt overwhelmed and not sure where to start? Let that feeling go and get started with SYSTEM 55. The ultimate tool for those looking to explore the psychedelic soundscapes that only modular synthesis can deliver. Whether you're creating dance music or scoring the next futuristic sci-fi cyberpunk movie, the SYSTEM 55 will have all of your bases covered. Coming equipped with seven fully voiced VCO's to tweak and adjust in any way you want, you can achieve the tones you've always wanted to. The two included CP3A-M mixer module allows you to mix up to four inputs and patch them into other modules within your chain for extended, traversing and cascading sound. For ultimate flexibility, two banks of 4-point multiple circuits are included to route multiple copies of your input signal to other modules within your rack, there's simply no limit to what you can achieve.

A step in the right direction

Breathing life and soul into this mammoth synthesizer is the 960 Sequential Controller. An eight-step sequencer with three rows of CV controls for adjusting the pitch of your signal, you can create evolving melodies and rhythms that drive your music forward by adding dynamism and movement to your signal. Not satisfied with only eight steps? Try your hand at using the 962 Sequential Switch module, transforming the sequencer from an eight-step to a 24-step giant, capable of much more intricate sequences and beats. Why not experiment with creating polyrhythms and unique steps that will help your music stand out from the crowd.
