וואַסער און נעץ: Do not expose the unit to rain, moisture, or operate it in wet conditions. Avoid placing objects filled with liquids on the unit.
The Behringer 2600 is a semi-modular synthesizer, meaning it has pre-wired connections but also allows for extensive patching to create unique sound routings. This section guides you through the initial setup.
3.1 אַנפּאַקינג און פּלייסמאַנט
Carefully remove the synthesizer from its packaging. Retain all packaging materials for future transport or storage.
Ensure all faders and switches are in their neutral or off positions before connecting power.
3.2 מאַכט קאַנעקשאַן
Connect the provided power adapter to the DC input jack on the rear panel of the 2600.
צאַפּן די מאַכט אַדאַפּטער אין אַ פּאַסיק עלעקטריקאַל ווענטיל.
Turn on the unit using the power switch. The indicator lights should illuminate.
3.3 אַודיאָ קאַנעקשאַנז
Connect the main audio output (1/4" mono jack) of the 2600 to your mixer, audio interface, or amplifier using a high-quality audio cable.
Adjust the master volume on your mixer/interface and the 2600 to a low level before playing.
3.4 Modular Integration (Optional)
The 2600 features 93 patch points, allowing integration with other modular synthesis systems (e.g., Eurorack). Use 3.5mm patch cables to connect various modules and expand your sound design possibilities.
Video: This video demonstrates the modular ecosystem concept, showing how different synthesizer components can be connected and integrated to expand sound capabilities. While featuring an Arturia product, the principles of modular patching are applicable to the Behringer 2600.
4. אַפּערייטינג ינסטרוקטיאָנס
The Behringer 2600 offers a hands-on approach to sound synthesis. This section provides an overview of its main components and how to interact with them.
4.1 Oscillators (VCOs)
The 2600 features three Voltage Controlled Oscillators (VCOs) that generate the primary sound waves. Each VCO has controls for frequency, waveform (e.g., sine, triangle, saw, square, pulse), and modulation inputs. Experiment with different waveforms and frequencies to create varied tonal foundations.
4.2 חלקtage קאַנטראָולד פילטער (VCF)
The VCF shapes the timbre of the sound by cutting off frequencies. Adjust the CUTOFF און אפקלאנג controls to achieve different filter effects, from subtle warmth to aggressive sweeps.
4.3 Envelope Generators (EGs)
The two Envelope Generators control the amplitude and filter cutoff over time. Adjust באַפאַלן, פאַרפאַלן, SUSTAIN, און מעלדונג (ADSR) parameters to shape the sound's dynamics, from sharp percussive hits to long, evolving pads.
4.4 Low Frequency Oscillators (LFOs)
LFOs generate sub-audio frequencies used for modulation effects like vibrato, tremolo, or filter sweeps. Adjust the LFO RATE און WAVEFORM to add movement and texture to your sounds.
4.5 Patch Points
The 93 patch points allow you to override the internal signal routing and create custom connections. This is where the semi-modular nature truly shines, enabling complex sound design and experimental patching.
4.6 Mechanical Spring Reverb
The built-in Mechanical Spring Reverb adds a classic, organic reverberation effect to your sounds. Adjust the reverb level to control the amount of spatial depth.
Video: This video showcases the hands-on operation and sound capabilities of a semi-modular analog synthesizer, including real-time sound manipulation and sequencing. While featuring an Arturia MiniBrute 2S, the operational principles are similar to the Behringer 2600.
5. וישאַלט
Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your Behringer 2600.
רייניקונג: Use a soft, dry, lint-free cloth to clean the exterior of the synthesizer. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
שטויב שוץ: When not in use, cover the synthesizer with a dust cover to prevent dust accumulation, especially on faders and switches.
