Synthesis and 6-string Sound Sculpting Collide
The BM-17 is built around a standalone, sync-capable VCO (voltage-controlled oscillator) that you can drive via an external source or allow to run on its own. It's complemented by an onboard FM (frequency modulation) Envelope and overdrive capabilities, unlocking an array of explosive sonic-contouring possibilities. Structure-wise, the painstakingly and faithfully re-created analog circuitry is housed within an ultra-rugged chassis, making it the perfect studio-to-stage synth-style supplement. Robust control knobs give you the precision and satisfying hands-on tactility to explore and refine your sound, and the I/O supports immense interoperative integration. The BM-17's rear panel features a heptad of connections, including voltage-controlled Frequency and Waveshape parameters, alongside Envelope and FM amounts, with individuated outputs for Audio, Envelope, Oscillator, and Mix signals. As an homage to a ‘90s icon, the Behringer BM-17 fuses the voltaic versatility of vintage-style synth sonics with a searing 6-string stompbox — or any number of strings, for that matter! Sweetwater’s sound scholars have found you can even supercharge your synth or keyboard rig, as this multidimensional machine is built for exploration and plays equally well with both synths and guitars/basses.
