Product Description
Unleash a world of rhythm and harmony with the Behringer Spice, an analogue semi-modular synthesizer crafted to explore complex polyrhythmic soundscapes, subharmonics, and immersive textures. This powerhouse synthesizer combines dual oscillators with four sub-oscillators, a classic multi-mode ladder filter, and a unique dual four-step sequencer for building intricate grooves and evolving patterns. Designed to integrate seamlessly with other Behringer semi-modulars like the Edge, Crave, and Grind, the Spice offers a comprehensive 16x16 patch matrix, allowing for endless customisation and modulation possibilities. This synth’s all-analogue signal path, hands-on controls, and versatile clock-sync options make it equally suited for live performance and detailed studio work, while quantisation features ensure perfect tuning across all tones. With a focus on immediate playability and deep creative control, it's time to get a little spicy.
Dual Oscillators and Subharmonic Layers:
The Spice delivers two versatile VCOs, each with square and sawtooth waveforms, complemented by four sub-oscillators to create a wide array of harmonics and subharmonics. Together, these six sound sources bring thick, multi-layered tones that blend beautifully in pseudo-polyphonic stacks. This setup lets you craft everything from deep, pulsating basses to rich harmonic textures and warm analogue leads.
Resonant Ladder Filter for Tone Sculpting:
At the heart of the Spice is a classic 24 dB resonant ladder filter, offering smooth, resonant tone shaping for everything from soft, rounded bass tones to sharp, biting leads. The multi-mode filter includes Cutoff, Resonance, and envelope control parameters, giving you a vast range of sonic possibilities, whether you’re designing sounds for performance or production.
Dual Sequencer and Polyrhythmic Engine:
The Spice’s dual four-step sequencer and polyrhythmic generator open up a wealth of rhythmic options. With clock-syncable tempo controls, manual tempo adjustments, and variable quantisation settings, the sequencer provides an interactive playground for creating unique polyrhythms and grooves. This feature makes the Spice an ideal companion for Behringer’s other rhythm-focused synths like the Edge, inviting hands-on performance with diverse rhythmic interactions. Perfect for those who want their synth to drive both melodic and rhythmic dimensions of a track.
