Conjure unbelievable synth tones with the Behringer 2600 , an authentic reproduction of the original ARP 2600, a three-oscillator analog synthesizer that has become one of the most sought-after instruments by musicians, producers, and sound designers. The original 2600 was favorited by illustrious artists such as Edgar Winter, Pete Townsend, Herbie Hancock, and Jean-Michel Jarre.
The 2600 features 3 VCOs, a multimode VCF, VCA, two envelope generators, and two LFOs. Several processing modules add a ton of power and include a ring modulator, lag processor, sample and hold, Schmitt trigger, envelope follower, a noise generator with continuously variable color, and a realistic-sounding digital spring reverb to add spaciousness and a sense of scale to your music.
The semimodular design allows you to create sounds straight out of the box without patch cables. However, the true power of the instrument lies with the 83 patch points, which provide the ultimate in configuration flexibility. Additionally, there are 58 faders and 15 buttons that give you hands-on, direct, and real-time access to all parameters. The synthesizer's enclosure features rack ears for mounting in an 8 RU case. The 2600 includes a power adapter.

- Behringer has taken great care in engineering the 2600, utilizing true-to-the-original analog circuitry, semimodular architecture, and triple VCO designs that come together to recreate classic tones that are evocative of classic electronic music.
- This attention to detail is what gives the 2600 its ultraflexible sound-shaping capability, giving you the ability to create a lot of amazing tones from superfat bass and tasty leads, all the way to full on dreamy ambience from the far reaches of your imagination.
- With the integrated ADSR and AR envelope generators of the 2600, you can create some truly dynamic progressions in your songs. Set the attack, decay, sustain, and release low to get short and softer-sounding notes, then adjust accordingly.
- If simple ADSR controls are not enough, you can get creative by flipping the Time Factor switch to either x2, x1, or x0.5. This gives you more control over the shape of the envelope, so you can have notes that are short and percussive or long and atmospheric
