Behringer PRO800 Analog 8-Voice Polyphonic Synthesizer

KEY FEATURES

• Classic Polyphonic 8-voice synthesizer and authentic reproduction of the Prophet 600

• Pure analog signal path based on authentic VCO, VCF and VCA designs

• 2 VCOs per voice for fat and detuned sounds

• Unison mode for fat 16 oscillator lead and bass sounds

• Up to 6 simultaneous oscillator shapes (OSC A: saw, triangle and pulse; OSC B: saw, triangle and pulse waveforms)

• Square waves with pulse width control and PWM via global LFO

• Classic 4-pole filter design with self-resonance capability

• Unique “POLY MOD” function allows OSC B and the filter envelope to modulate OSC A frequency plus filter cutoff

• Dedicated LFO with 6 waveform shapes to modulate the pulse width and pitch of oscillators A and B plus filter cutoff frequency

• 2 ADSR envelope generators for modulation of VCF and VCA

• Arpeggiator with up/down and key-assign modes

• Polyphonic 2-track sequencer for creative sequences

• 400 user program memories for storing all your favorite patches

• Additional noise generator found in the ultra-rare Japanese Version called MMI 6E3.1

DESCRIPTION

The Behringer PRO-800 is a classic analog 8-voice polyphonic synthesizer with 2 VCOs, 1 VCF, an arpeggiator and sequencer. Based on the classic Prophet 600, this synth captures the vintage sounds of the original coupled with some modern features like MIDI and onboard memory for storing up to 400 patches to truly make the PRO-800 a great choice for the modern musician.

In keeping with the classic feel, the PRO-800 sports a pure analog signal based on authentic VCO, VCF and VCA designs that have made original synths like the Prophet 600 so sought after by many electronic musicians and enthusiasts. Each of the 8 voices also contains 2 VCOs for some massive, detuned sounds.

Unison mode on the PRO-800 also allows you to create some nice fat 16 oscillator lead and bass sounds. Combine that with the ability to use up to 6 separately tweakable oscillator shapes (OSC A and B: saw, triangle and pulse) simultaneously and you can create some ultra-sizzly solos or ginormous bass tones. The “POLY MOD” function even allows OSC B to modulate OSC A.
