Behringer Legendary 2500 Series Dual Sample and Hold with Voltage Controlled Clock Module for Eurorack

The first 2500 series synth modules came out in the 70s and tended to be extremely expensive. They were mainly all discrete transistor designs with some op-amps as at the time op-amps were high cost. The discrete circuitry gave the modules a very distinctive sound and were used by artists like The Who, Jean Michel Jarre, Vangelis, Kraftwerk and so many more, giving us some of the greatest records and film soundtracks we've ever heard. Modular synths were a landmark development in electronic music and today, it's about to get better.

SAMPLE & HOLD/RANDOM VOLTAGE MODULE 1036
This is the Behringer 2500 series SAMPLE & HOLD/RANDOM VOLTAGE MODULE 1036. An authentic reproduction of the original "System 2500" circuitry from the 70's that can fit in a standard Eurorack case. The best part? It's at a very affordable price. Mix the SAMPLE & HOLD/RANDOM VOLTAGE MODULE 1036 in with your existing rig or start your modular synth journey from here. Either way you're sure to have a lot of fun.

SAMPLE & HOLD
The SAMPLE & HOLD/RANDOM VOLTAGE MODULE 1036 is a classic analog sample and hold module. The 1036 features discrete transistor circuitry to add vintage character and is equipped with onboard clock frequency controls, frequency range switches, clock on/off switches, trigger/gate select switches, manual sample switches, internal random signal level controls, external signal input attenuators and clock frequency modulation attenuators to create amazing sounds.

Ins and Outs
The 1036 gives you comprehensive connectivity, each channel has separate external signal inputs, sample inputs, clock modulation inputs and signal outputs to other send to other modules.

Eurorack Ready
Installing the SAMPLE & HOLD/RANDOM VOLTAGE MODULE 1036 is easy as it is designed to fit into a standard Eurorack case. Just connect the power cable to the power supply and screw in the module using the included screws. This allows for the 1036 to be mixed with other synth modules for a truly unique set up.

Complete Your Setup
Whether you're just getting into modular synths or looking to complete your collection, the SAMPLE & HOLD/RANDOM VOLTAGE MODULE 1036 from Behringer is a great tool to have when creating amazing music.
