Behringer Polyeight Synthesizer
Sells separately for $699.00A reimagining of the early-’80s Korg-style polysynth, the Behringer Polyeight houses discrete VCOs and the legendary 2044 lowpass filter, faithfully reproducing the warm sound and unmistakable analog character that make the original such a storied classic. This 8-voice programmable polyphonic synthesizer features saw, square, and pulse-width waveforms, bolstered by ear-grabbing filter resonance and positive/negative envelope control. Unison, double, and poly modes give rise to thick 8-VCO leads and muscular bass, as well as 4-voice double and 8-voice single-VCO sounds. Playing the Polyeight is an expressive and inspiring experience, thanks to the 49-key, semi-weighted keybed, which includes polyphonic aftertouch and velocity sensitivity. You also get a sub-oscillator down to two octaves below, along with pulse-width modulation (PWM), MS-20-inspired noise generation, and a potent 3-waveform LFO. An advanced arpeggiator with manual and external tempo control is also on hand. Moreover, the Polyeight features 256 user program memories, an LCD with an encoder for lightning-quick editing, plus chord memory, polyphonic portamento, CV inputs, and comprehensive MIDI. Complete with a BBD-fueled multi-stage chorus, phaser, and ensemble effects, the Behringer Polyeight delivers the sweeping, chorused pads and rich polyphonic tones that populated pop and new wave back in the 1980s.
