Semi-Modular Analog Synthesizer

The Behringer Neutron puts the legendary analog synthesizer tones of the 1970s and ’80s into the hands of today’s musicians and producers in a smartly priced portable desktop chassis that can easily be converted into an 80 HP Eurorack module for modular enthusiasts. The Neutron’s semi-modular design means you can get started making music right out of the box using the default routings, but it also provides a plethora of patching options, allowing you to conjure up a huge variety of leads, basses, and tones with incredible finesse and ease via a 32-in / 24-out jack matrix.

Experience Neutron’s pure analog signal path, including a Paraphonic mode that allows both 3340 analog oscillators to be independently controlled for an expanded palette of tonal options. Further sculpt the sounds with VCF, VCA, and state-variable filter in conjunction with a flexible multiwave LFO and classic bucket-brigade delay (BBD) effect.

Semi-Modular Design
  • Designed around a linear workflow, the Neutron benefits greatly from its semi-modular design, which requires no patching for immediate performance.
  • Connect your favorite keyboard or computer via MIDI, over DIN or USB, and start exploring the world of analog music synthesis right out of the box.
Classic, Big, and Fat Tones
  • Great care has been taken in designing the Neutron to ensure it is true to the circuitry of classic synthesizers that made musical history.
  • Neutron’s ultraflexible sound-shaping capability covers everything from superfat bass and lead tones, stunning effects, and progressive organ sounds to otherworldly sounds.
  • The inspired synthesizer tracks laid down in the 1970s and ’80s are etched in the annals of progressive rock, new-wave, and synth-pop music forever, making them truly classic in every sense of the word.
  • The Neutron’s pure analog signal path with legendary VCO, VCF, and VCA circuits, lets you recreate fat and original sounds that will make you a legend in your own right.
VCO Double Play
  • Flexible dual voltage-controlled oscillators (VCOs) provide an incredible range, using 5 unique waveforms for sculpting the perfect sound.
  • Oscillators 1 and 2 options include: Tone Mod, Square, Sawtooth, Triangular, or Sine, which can be adjusted across an extremely wide, 3-octave range (3, 16, 8′).
12 dB State-Variable Filter and VCA
  • The very heart of the Neutron sound is its highly flexible 12 dB State-Variable Filter, which lets you experiment with the cutoff frequency (10 Hz to 15 kHz) and modulation and envelope depth, to dial in the perfect sound.
  • The synth’s Filter Mode switch provides 3 settings (High Pass, Bandpass, and Low Pass)
  • Support for filter keytracking enables you to select the amount of filtering that is applied to the note being played.
  • The VCA can be overloaded via the Overdrive circuit to add insane spice and edge to your sounds, without saying goodbye to your precious low-end content.
Making Waves
  • Neutron’s onboard modulators feature adjustable tune, OSC mix, shape, and pulse width.
  • A range of switches are provided for paraphonic on/off; OSC sync, and octave range selection.
  • The internal LFO is the modulation source for the VCF unless an external modulation source is connected at the 3.5mm input jack.
Runaway Brigade
  • The all-analog bucket-brigade circuit inside the Neutron provides 25 to 640 ms of delay time.
  • At lower time settings, echoes will be crisp and punchy, but at longer settings, you will experience natural high-end roll-off.
  • When you max out the repeats, you get a full dose of glorious self-oscillation—for mind-blowing runaway delays.
Dual Envelope Generators
When it comes to envelope generation, the Neutron has all bases covered, thanks to its 2 ADSR (attack, decay, sustain, release) envelope generators.
Eurorack Ready
Designed to handle the rigors of life on the road or in the studio, your NEUTRON can easily be transferred into a standard Eurorack 80 HP case for the perfect integration into your existing system.
Controls and Connectivity
  • Neutron features 36 knobs and 7 switches
  • The onboard patching matrix provides 32 inputs and  24 output connectors (3.5mm mono) for patching. Additional I/O includes: MIDI I/O and Thru over USB/MIDI DIN, main audio input and output, and headphones—with its own dedicated level control.
