As synthesizer enthusiasts continue to rediscover the magic of vintage analog sound exploration, Behringer continues to deliver necessary tools for musicians to rediscover the past and explore the future. Based on one of the earliest and most important early modular synthesizer systems ever created--Behringer’s System 55 delivers the unmistakable, unlimited (and sometimes unpredictable) sound-sculpting potential of the 1973 open architecture modular legend. Historically accurate from construction to user experience, you won’t find any pre-sets, memory slots, or “top-40” ready patches. However, you will discover creative freedom and a one-of-a-kind experience each time you step up to the System-55--with the benefit of modern MIDI-to-CV converter and UBS I/O connectivity.

Although far more compact than the original 1973 behemoth, Behringer’s System 55 nearly fills two Eurorack cases, easily divided into manageable sections for easy travel. Pre-assembled and loaded with 38 distinct analog modules, the System-55 has everything you need to begin your lifelong analog odyssey. Now, everyone desiring unlimited creative musical synthesis can experience the system that inspired Keith Emerson, Wendy Carlos (switched on Bach, Clockwork Orange), Stevie Wonder, and many other electronic music pioneers. Best of all--and true to Behringer form--the System-55 is available at Alto Music at a very realistically affordable price.

Among the many hearts and brains of System-55 include (6) 921b VCOs and (1)921 VCO, up to 7 simultaneous wave shapes, a 24-step sequencer, the legendary 4-pole lowpass “ladder” filter, 352 patch points, MIDI In/Out/Thru, and more—plus room to add more modules for even deeper exploration.
