Behringer Kobol Expander

Analog Semi-Modular Synthesizer

The Kobol Expander from Behringer combines the convenience of a MIDI desktop synthesizer with the advanced sound-sculpting possibilities of a modular rig in a Eurorack-ready chassis specifically designed to conjure up vintage French analog synth tones from the 1970s.

Faithful to the Original

• The Behringer Kobol Expander is a duophonic analog synthesizer featuring 2 VCOs, allowing morphing between 7 waveforms.
• In addition, oscillator synchronization and pulse-width modulation bring back to life the original circuits of the ’70s.
• A unique 4-pole VCF also provides this natural saturation only found in Kobol synths.

Expand Your Horizons

• If you want to push the Kobol Expander even further, the analog LFO has two selectable waveforms that can be connected to multiple external modules or synths to achieve more complex sounds.
• A built-in noise generator and voltage processor let you extend the possibilities even further to create spicier sounds.

Made for Your Setup, Eurorack Ready

• The Kobol Expander can easily be integrated into any sized setup with its 32 patch points—connect to any module or synth in your arsenal and create tunes that will get you and the crowd rocking.
• The Kobol Expander is designed to fit into a standard Eurorack case. Just connect the power cables to the power supply and mount the module using the included screws.
• This allows for the Kobol Expander to be mixed with other synth modules for a truly unique setup.
