Description
DeepMind 12 is a true analog, 12-voice polyphonic synthesizer that allows you to design virtually any sound you can imagine. Thanks to its four FX engines, dual analog OSCs and LFOs per voice, three ADSR Generators, 8-Channel Modulation Matrix and onboard 32-Step Sequencer, DeepMind 12 gives you complete control over your soundscape. Plus, DeepMind 12 features comprehensive remote control via iPad/PC/Mac and selected Android apps over USB, MIDI or built-in Wi-Fi. This is the sound of the past, made for players and producers of today.
Classic Polyphonic Synthesizer
The inspired synthesizer tracks laid down in the 1970s and ’80s are etched in the annals of progressive rock and pop music forever, making them truly classic in every sense of the word. DeepMind 12’s pure analog signal path with legendary IR3109-style VCFs, stereo VCAs, and 12-voice polyphony lets you recreate all that magic or design the powerful, original sounds that just might make you a legend in your own right.
Glorious 12-Note Polyphony
Playing chords and building textural soundscapes requires the ability to generate multiple notes or sounds simultaneously. While early analog synthesizers were either monophonic (only 1 note at a time), or somewhat limited in the number of sounds they could produce at the same time, the DeepMind 12 boosts your creativity with 12-note polyphony. Each voice has 2 oscillators, with OSC 1 generating sawtooth and square/pulse waveforms with pulse width modulation, and OSC 2 generates square/pulse waveforms with a unique tone modulation. With 24 oscillators at your disposal, a tremendous range of options becomes available including the following oscillator modes: Unison 12, 6, 4, 3, 2 Mono; Mono -2; Mono 4; Mono 6; Poly; Poly 6, and Poly 8. The addition of oscillator sync, oscillator drift and parameter drift allow the recreation of the much sought after warmth and movement found in vintage analog synthesizers, with greatly improved reliability and stability.
The FX Racks
Behringer included four simultaneous FX engines with over 33 world-class TC ELECTRONIC, MIDAS and KLARK TEKNIK algorithms – including Reverb, Chorus, Flanger, Phaser, Delay, Multiband Distortion, and many more. Custom-designed and physically modeled after some of the most iconic and sought-after processors, DeepMind 12’s FX were essentially “rebuilt” in the digital domain and put right at your fingertips. All effects run inside the low-latency environment of the DeepMind 12, ensuring flawless performance and flexible routing.
