Behringer 1006 Filtamp

FILTAMP VCF/VCA Module for Eurorack

Generate the sounds of the ’70s with the Behringer 1006 FILTAMP, a module for Eurorack that features an authentic reproduction of the original ARP 2500 circuitry, offering very distinctive sounds used by artists like The Who, Jean Michel Jarre, Vangelis, Kraftwerk, and more.

The 1006 features a 24 dB/oct low-pass filter followed by a discrete VCA. The module can mix two audio sources and offers various manual and CV controls. The 1006 ships with a ribbon power cable and mounting screws.

Filter and VCA

• The FILTAMP MODULE 1006 is a classic voltage controlled 24 dB per octave low pass filter, the filter is a matched transistor ladder design followed by a matched transistor VCA for a vintage sound. The 1006 filter is equipped with a filter frequency control, a resonance control capable of self-oscillation, and 3 summed CV inputs with independent attenuators for maximum flexibility. The 2 filter signal inputs are also equipped with 2 dedicated attenuators to act as an input mixer.
• The VCA has an amplifier gain control, which is summed with the CV inputs, an exponential or linear response switch, and 2 summed CV inputs with attenuators. All this lets you shape your sound to perfection.

Inputs and Outputs

The 1006 gives you comprehensive connectivity. Inputs A and B go to the filter signal input, Keyboard CV input controls the filter cutoff frequency. CV1 and CV2 inputs can be used for the filter frequency and the VCA, for control or modulation via the 4 onboard CV attenuators, for maximum control and finally a VCA output to feed the processed signal to other modules.

Eurorack Ready

Installing the FILTAMP MODULE 1006 is easy as it is designed to fit into a standard Eurorack case. Just connect the power cables to the power supply and screw in the module using the included screws. This allows for the 1006 to be mixed with other synth modules for a truly unique setup.
