The Behringer 297 Dual Portamento / CV Utilities module brings versatile sound shaping tools in an authentic reproduction of the original analog circuitry from the 1980s. With two independent control voltage (CV) mixers and dual portamento sections, it expands the creative possibilities of your Eurorack modular synthesizer system.
Shape Your Sound With Two Independent CV Mixers
You can tap into new sonic territory with the 297’s two CV mixers, each with four inputs and attenuators to fine-tune the signal levels. Invert the outputs for even more options. Mix modulation sources like LFOs and envelopes to create evolving textures. Sum audio signals for thicker tones. Blend oscillator outputs to stack voices. Each mixer lets you combine and tweak CV signals before routing them to any destination in your modular rig.
Dynamic Expression With Dual Portamento Sections
The 297’s dual portamento circuits lend musical expression to your patching. The Time knobs adjust the glide rate, from a subtle pitch sweep to a dramatic bend between notes. Modulate the portamento time with external CV for rhythmic effects. Use portamento to impart synth leads and basslines with fluid articulation. With two independent circuits, you can apply portamento to multiple voices for lush, animated textures.
Eurorack Compatible for Endless Sonic Possibilities
The 297 integrates seamlessly with your other Eurorack modules. Connect to your power supply, mount it with the included screws and start patching. Combine the 297 with VCOs, filters, sequencers and effects for extraordinary synthesized sounds. Add modulation sources to breathe life into static patches. The Behringer 297 unleashes the creative potential of your modular rig.
