Dual VCO, 3-way VCF

As you’d expect, the Odyssey features an all-analog signal path. This more or less begins with a classic dual-oscillator configuration. Sawtooth, square/pulse with pulse-width modulation, or sine/square wave LFO offer the ultimate analog tonal palette.

Next up, an incredibly powerful 3-way filter allows you to sculpt your tone to no end. Choose from 2-pole, 4-pole MkII and 4-pole MkIII, with faders for cutoff, resonance and HPF frequency. Finally, a drive switch allows you to tip it over the edge for more cutting, aggressive sounds.

37-note semi-weighted keybed

The built-in 37-note keybed makes the Odyssey a wholly playable synth. Great for hefty basslines and tweeting leads alike, its semi-weighted design makes it familiar and responsive – essential for a great performance.

If you want to take a step back from the performance and focus on sound and dynamics, don’t worry. Behringer have included a 32-step sequencer and an arpeggiator to boot. Program complex sequences, ostinatos or moving textural arpeggios and let the sound carry you away!

The final piece of the puzzle is the built in selection of Klark Teknik selection of effects. The legendary british company have produced many of the industry-standard reverbs and effects over the years – and the Odyssey comes with them included! Choose from reverb, chorus, flanger, delay, pitch shifter and multi-effects, all in glorious 24-bit!

Musicians like Peanut from The Kaiser Chiefs have even included the MS-1 on his live rig to recreate the old sounds from tracks such as Every Day I Love You Less and Less live on stage.

Used by some musical titans, but simple enough that a beginner can get cracking and start learning the world of synths, the Behringer MS-1 hits that magical sweet spot.

Simplicity:
At its heart, the MS-1 is a very simple mono synth, but synthesists know this is where the beauty lies. No presets, what you see is what you get and a simple step sequencer, this is how a huge amount of music from the 80’s and 90’s was built.

Squelching and connectivity:
The raw 3340 already sounds raw and phat, the filter with the resonance cranked gives this iconic “Squelch”, the likes can be heard in a lot of electronic acts and music. The MS-1 also plays very well with effects pedals like delays, reverb and specially distortion, really expanding its creativity.

Full Size + Mod Grip:
The faders being full size encourage not only playability live, but they also offer you the chance to really dial in that perfect tone and hit that “Sweet spot”. The included Mod Grip also allows you to strap up and rock out.

Authentic Engineering

The 2600 features a pure analog signal path modelled on the original ’70s Arp 2600 circuitry, as well as a triple VCO architecture and semi-modular design. These engineering decisions deliver classic sounding tones from the era, from airy ambiences, to dynamic leads and thick, powerful bass.

Sound Creation

Your sounds are generated via the 3 VCOs (boasting FM inputs). Their default waveforms can be patched to triangle, saw, square, pulse, or sine – ensuring even more sonic options are available to you.

That’s not all though. Further creativity is made possible in the form of a filter mode switch, resonance control, sample and hold, a lag processor, ring modulator, envelope follower, Schmitt trigger, noise generator and more.

You’ll be able to add even more variety to your tracks via the built-in AR envelope generators and ADSR. Tweaking the level of release, sustain, decay and attack will provide dynamism to any sound.
