A meticulous re-creation of a dual-noise and random voltage generator from a groundbreaking 1970s modular system, the Behringer 1016 provides a simple path to add texture and random modulations to your synth creations. Housing an independent noise generator and random CV signal generator, each with two outputs, this 16HP Eurorack module offers two flavors of noise: white and pink. You can layer noise alongside your oscillators to impart them with expressive breath-like qualities; use it as a sound source for creating snares, hats, and other percussive sounds; or employ it as a source for sample & hold and other modulators. Next up, the slow random CV signal generator excels at bringing sounds to life in unpredictable ways. Synthesists at Sweetwater enjoy it for modulating filter cutoff, pulse width, and pitch, in addition to appreciating the manual attenuation control for dialing in just the right amount of sonic chaos! Whether you’re expanding an existing Eurorack rig or building your first system, Behringer 2500 series models, including the Behringer 1016, are a budget-friendly choice with bona fide analog soul.
