Behringer 2600, Up Close : The Three Duophonic Modes
มุมมอง 4.9K2 ปีที่แล้ว
Anyone familiar with the Behringer 2600's DUO Voice Mode knows it's almost always more trouble than it's worth. Far fewer know that there is a second way to put the 2600 in Duophonic Mode, one that works much better. And almost no one knows there is a third way which is even better, still. By the time you've finished watching this video you will have learned about all three duophonic modes - wh...
Behringer 2600 - Tutorial 2, Part 2
มุมมอง 1.6K3 ปีที่แล้ว
Part 2 of the "Getting Started" Tutorial takes a detailed look at the signal flow in the Behringer 2600 - from a VCO audio source through the VCF, VCA, Mixer and Reverb. While the tutorial is aimed at people getting started with [semi-]modular synthesizers, it also includes details about the 2600 that experienced users might not have discovered yet, especially in regards to the VCA's "Ring Mod"...
Behringer 2600 - Tutorial 2, Part 1
มุมมอง 1.8K3 ปีที่แล้ว
In this Tutorial (No. 2, "Getting Started" Part 1) we look at getting the Behringer 2600 set up for a new patch and we take a "general" look at audio signal flow as it applies to the 2600. If you are a more advanced user of modular synths (including the 2600), this first part is likely to be less useful to you. Part 2 is a far more detailed look at the Behringer 2600. That having been said, Par...

Printable documentation covering the prewired connections is available (as of February 7th, 2022) here: 24x7arts.gumroad.com/l/pzvjw For an inaugural video here on the new 24x7 Channel, a tutorial on the Behringer 2600 Semi-Modular synth is not a bad choice. In this tutorial we take a look at all the parts of the 2600 you get your hands on: the switches, sliders and patch points. Even better, w...
Thanks for this tutorial/demo, much appreciated! Just got a B2600!
by far the most clear series for learning the 2600!

Thank you so much for your efforts. Glad people like you exist and the vast universum of youtube!
amazing. i've had my 2600 for a couple of years now and i never thought to really explore the duo modes. until now! really good video. clear explanations, nice demos. thank you
This document is absolutely indispensable to me. Now I'm starting to understand a little bit of how the Behringer 2600 works. Thank you :)
Just checked out your bandcamp. Very interesting stuff! Congrats!
Wow! So instructive :) Give us more!
Fantastic!
Amazing tutorial! Didn't understand half of it, though. But I got some glimpses into the possibilities of the 2600. Thank you :)
Sweet video :) Beautifully made. Thanks
Thanks for providing these tools! Today I paid for and tried to download both documents. The Three DuoPhonic Modes downloaded fine. The "Behringer 2600: Prewired Connections" PDF does not download. Is the file corrupted, or did the server crash? Here's hoping that this is a quick fix. Take care :).
UPDATE: Ha! The issue seems to be related to my Windows 10 platform only😉. When I downloaded it to a Windows 11 laptop there were no problems at all.
This 50 hours of work is an artwork!
Always nice to know it's appreciated. Thanks for taking the time to comment.
@@24x7arts I'm watching part 2 now, miss your music there!
@@dagamusik Part 2 is a "learn by doing" tutorial, so my music would only have interfered with your listening to how all the various adjustments affect the sound your 2600 is making.
Thanks my journey with the 2600 has been a fun one and keeps gettig better with time,new possibilities on the horizon
Great, thank you so much
Best Tutorial ever, so nice visually, calm music and good explanations and no blabla ;-) Love it! thank yo
Glad I just found your channel, had Behringer for a year and not got to grips with it and it stayed under a dust blanket unloved. I was looking how to get the sound going again, as I forget which sliders to move to get sound via midi, and at the time looking at Ralphs set up default for sound, I then spotted your channel at the side. Well over 8 and half minutes of fantastic learning, I am starting to love the 2600 again. Many thanks for your awesome video.
Good to hear! I hope you stick with it, and with the tutorials. By the time you work your way through Tutorial 2, Part 2, you will have a much deeper understanding of your 2600. Enjoy!
What ridiculously stupid video... Synthesiser video with no audio is about as useful as a boat made out of wire wool 🤣
Follow the tutorial and do everything it shows you on your 2600 (assuming you have one). It won't seem so "ridiculously stupid" then, and you'll have learned a lot more than from anything you could just listen to.
Many thanks for this! In the video, you stated about the envelopes still influencing the VCA with the initial gain at max... "Why this is so, is the subject for a future tutorial. In part though, the shapes of the AR and ADSR do more than just shape the volume. They also change the timbre of the sound." Unfortunately, that future tutorial never was done. Could you say in brief what you intended to explain?
You're welcome. To be honest, I don't remember exactly what I had in mind there. Briefly, though, the reason for the pulse still being distinguishable, instead of being a matter of volume, is a matter of the timbre of the sound also being changed by the quick pulse of the envelope(s) and our rather amazing ability to distinguish between different sounds. Someone with a better understanding of psychoacoustics could explain this more fully, I'm sure. My general point (again, as I recall) was that while the envelopes basically raise and lower the gain on the signal, they also contribute some to shaping the waveform that is output by the VCA.
By far the most clear and concise tutorials I have seen. Behringer should have done this instead of issuing the silly pamphlet they call a Quick Start Guide. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Complimenti. ottimo Tutorial. Come fare senza??
Grazie.
Thank you sooooooo much for this
You're welcome.
great job! many thanks for your super-clear video!!!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for all your effort documenting the results of your experimentation, brilliant is all I can say. I now have mode 3 permanently set up, love the extra effects when I want them. Makes it so much more interesting and even more enjoyable than it already was!
You're welcome. Glad to be of help.
i WAS on the fence about getting this 2600 or two Neutrons and this wins . thank you for imparting your wisdom!!!!!!!!!
Glad it helped!
so well done. really a fantastic trip through the inner workings. The reverb info is really valuable right now and helps me to figure out how to EQ the reverb signal. The Blue Marvin spring is crazy sensitive and I have been having a real headscratcher to figure out how you patch in. Cheers
Glad it was helpful! Understanding how that upper right corner of the 2600 actually works can save you a lot of frustration! Please make sure you check the video description for any error corrections I've added there.
Thank you! 🙏
You're welcome!
dude, it made me laugh so hard when you demonstrated the patch for method 2. That is just so backwards. I want a 2600 so bad. I might sell my ms-20 mini and volca keys for to afford one. I really like the ms-20, but the form factor is too big and the patch bay is too limited for my taste. I might get a k-2 in the future to replace it.
Yeah, that one is a little counterintuitive ...
Are these slides printed in a book you sell already ? I just got the two you have up… was hoping to have these tutorial slides as maps to look at from PDF ( not moving ) when Im staring at the device. Thank you again for making this… clearest explain I’ve found so far.
You're welcome. I'm glad they've been useful! I don't have any plans to at the moment. Perhaps you could pause the videos on the "summary" pages and get a screenshot? (One of the issues I have with making a printable PDF of the slides is that they were designed to look good on video and therefore are mostly black. That's not a good choice for printing, though, as it would burn through your black ink cartridge in short order. That leads to a bigger issue, namely that I don't really have the time/energy to re-do all of the slides so that they're using white backgrounds ...)
@@24x7arts yes totally understand - you spent a ton of time already! Thank you. I can pause and do that… just was wondering. Also in white would probably still be fine as the page is still show the mapping. But its a lot of work beyond so Im thankful you did this already!
Beautifully done. ❤
Thank you!
Incredibly helpful video, thank you *so* much
You're very welcome!
How about covering the also strange gate/trigger behaviors, how to use both envelopes, and other ways to approach polyphony with MIDI and/or CV combinations and external hardware, preferably DAWless?
The amount of time and effort that goes into making these compared to the "return on investment" they've delivered has pretty much killed my appetite for more. I started a part 3 on the tutorials quite a while ago, focusing on the 3 oscillators. You'd think that would be fairly simple to put together, but when I started looking at the many ways one oscillator can modify the sound of another through FM (including the surprising effect you get plugging the output of one oscillator into the *output* of another), it was clearly going to need a lot of time to explain things... I may at some point get back to working on that, but it's low on the list of things I'm currently interested in spending time on.
Hi, thank you for the informative video. Does this only work with midi and not with CV/gate? Thanks
It only works with MIDI.
@@24x7arts great thanks, I can send midi out with my sequencer so this should work, only thing i was wondering was do you know the specific limitations with midi and cv/gate when using the synth?
I'm not sure what you're asking. A big difference between MIDI and CV (as far as duophonic modes are concerned) is that the CV cable can only carry one signal (voltage) while the MIDI signal is polyphonic. When you hold down multiple notes on a MIDI connected keyboard, the 2600 can get the pitch of all the notes from the MIDI message. With CV, you'd need a cable for each note and some place on the 2600 to plug each of those cables into (not to mention a cable for each note on/off message).
@@24x7artsThanks, but i meant more in terms of what are the advantages of one (midi or cv) to the other in terms of the information sent. for example velocity data, pitch bends. Things like that. from what i have read it seems there is a slight difference in what each one sends. thanks for the info though, still interesting to know. I actually do plan on sending 3 different cv patch cables to each VCO's individual pitch input and seeing what kind of chords I can come up with.
The main difference between the two is that MIDI is digital and control voltage (CV) is analog. MIDI values for things like pitch, velocity and aftertouch are represented by integers (0, 1, 2, ... 127). CV signals are voltages, typically between -10 and +10 volts (but often 0 to +5, -5 to +5, or 0 to +1, depending on what the voltage is controlling). Where a MIDI value can for example, be 1 or 2, it can't be 1.25 or 1.814. CVs between 1 and 2, on the other hand, can be 1.257352 or 1.90123 etc., again for example. That means CVs can be more accurate. However, it's the person who is listening to the resultant sound(s) that really matters, and you'd be hard pressed to tell the difference between, say, MIDI velocity values of 63 and 64, or CV values of 5v and 4.89v.
Very impressed ! How did you get to know that ? Solely by experimenting or did you get access to service documentation ?
I "stumbled" on it by accident and then spent who knows how many hours experimenting with it just so I could figure out what was actually going on. As far as I'm aware, these extra "modes" are not documented anywhere.
Thanks for the info, it helped for sure.
Glad it helped
Now, that's what I call an explanation.
Without a single spoken word!
Appreciate your "try it along with me" videos, actually experimenting is where the learning takes hold! Also appreciate the time in explaining how the 2600 works! Lots to absorb on this feature rich machine!
Thanks. I'm glad they've been helpful. And yes, it's about impossible to learn what the 2600 has to offer by just watching videos (or reading manuals). It's definitely a "hands on" synth.
Excellent tutorials, thank you.
Glad you like them!
Very informative.. Last night was my first night with the Behringer 2600.. This knowledge, brought in 8 minutes wouldn've saved me a lot of searching.. (but it was fun anyway..). Btw.. beatiful patch.. incredible how it's produced in only one take..
Thanks for taking the time to comment. It's much appreciated. The 2600 is a deep synth that takes time to learn and appreciate. Working through tutorial 2 (both parts) -- not just watching, but literally doing on your 2600 what is being shown in the videos -- will save you months of trial and error. Enjoy!
The man who has no voice but a big heart. Thanks for this!
You're welcome.
We’re the patches used in the soundtrack made with a b2600?
Yes. See 00:17.
Another great movie. Thanks for sharing. Going to watch next part. Best Regards.
Thanks. You will learn some things watching Tutorial 2, Part 2 now, but you will get much more from it when your new 2600 arrives and you can apply what it is teaching you to it and hear the results. Enjoy!
Finally one useful tutorial. One could say, it's obvious but not for all and specially for the beginners or just for new to this gear. Many thanks for sharing and for the music - it was really OK :-) BTW my B_ARP is on the way... Best Regards
Thanks for taking the time to comment. I hope these videos make your new 2600 all the more enjoyable.
really appreciate this video. I would have never figured out smooth duophonic without it. thank you!
Glad I could help!
Thanks for this explanations, I will try that out my 2600... I am never interested for this mode cause if I want poly I take my poly synths..But finally for some special things can once be used why not...
Glad it was helpful!
I bought your nicely made 2600 PDF Documention, excellent work. I think the prewired connection as an Poster oder a Picture to print out would help in the studio. thanks D.
I'm not sure I understand exactly what you are wanting. Could you be more specific/detailed?
this is a great documentation video. The Behringer 2600 lacks documentation, but this fills in a lot about the upper voice, Duo, and how the B2600 reacts to keyboard input. Thank you so much.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for taking the time to comment.
Thanks a lot. More detailed "Quick Start Guide" or an updated Behringer version of the ARP 2600 Patch Book would be very interesting. Documentation with visual explainations of what happening when using modules and wires ...
