Behringer CAT Duophonic Analog Synthesizer

The Behringer CAT Desktop duophonic analog synthesizer module brings true vintage analog sound to your studio in a conveniently compact format. With the CAT’s authentic VCO, VCF and VCA circuitry, you can easily recreate those classic analog synth tones from the 70s and 80s. Whether you want to produce rich, warm basses, screaming leads or atmospheric pads, the CAT delivers iconic analog character.

Go Beyond Monophony With Duophonic and Paraphonic Modes

While many vintage analog synths were monophonic, the CAT allows you to play two notes simultaneously thanks to its duophonic and paraphonic modes. Play basslines and leads together, build complex evolving textures and more. Duophonic mode allocates one VCO per note while paraphonic mode stacks both oscillators to fatten up your sound. The musical results offer far more depth and complexity compared to basic monophonic instruments.

Sculpt Your Sound With Versatile Oscillators and Waveforms

At the core of the CAT are two voltage-controlled oscillators (VCOs) per voice, each providing a choice of four simultaneous waveforms. Sawtooth, pulse width, triangle and sub-oscillator waves can be mixed and matched across the two VCOs in real time for sonic versatility. Syncing VCO2 to VCO1 also produces more complex timbres. Whether you want searing leads, sub-shaking basses, evolving pads or exotic textures, the CAT’s flexible oscillators put vintage analog sound design at your fingertips.

Modular Connectivity for External Control

The CAT includes a range of input and output jacks, letting you integrate it into your wider modular synth rig. Control voltages can be sent to the VCOs, VCF and VCA from external sources like sequencers and envelope generators. You can also chain multiple CAT units together for up to 16-voice polyphony. For producers with an ever-expanding modular system, the CAT provides vintage analog tone and modular control in a compact, affordable desktop module.

Compact Desktop Design Fits Any Studio

The CAT synth module’s desktop design takes up minimal space. Easily integrate its authentic analog tones into your studio, performance rig or Eurorack modular system. With its versatile sound and connectivity, the CAT is an ideal analog companion for any electronic musician.
