A Brief History of
Analog Synthesis
The modern synthesizer’s evolution
began in 1919, when a Russian physicist
named Lev Termen (also known as
Léon Theremin) invented one of the
rst electronic musical instruments –
the Theremin. It was a simple oscillator
that was played by moving the
performer’s hand in the vicinity of the
instrument’s antenna. An outstanding
example of the Theremin’s use can be
heard on the Beach Boys iconic smash
hit “Good Vibrations”.
Full remote control via iPad*/PC/
Mac* and selected Android* App
over USB, MIDI or built-in WiFi for
extended parameter control
49 semi-weighted full-size keys
featuring velocity sensitivity and
after-touch
Pure analog signal path based on
legendary VCF and VCA designs
OSC 1 generates sawtooth and
square/pulse waveforms with pulse
width modulation
OSC 2 generates square/pulse
waveforms with tone modulation
Ondioline
In the late 1930s, French musician
Georges Jenny invented what he called
the Ondioline, a monophonic electronic
keyboard capable of generating a wide range
of sounds. The keyboard even allowed the
player to produce natural-sounding vibrato by
depressing a key and using side-to-side nger
movements. You can hear the Ondioline on Del
Shannon’s “Runaway”.

Mellotron
Finding a high level of acceptance in the
1960s, Harry Chamberlin’s Mellotron was an
electro-mechanical keyboard that generated
sounds by playing back pre-recorded
tape loops. Although tempermental and
prone to pitch and mechanical issues, the
Mellotron was used extensively by many
U.K. artists. Classic tracks from the Moody
Blues Days of Future Passed, the Beatles
“Strawberry Fields Forever”, and the Rolling
Stones “She’s a Rainbow” are prime examples.

Arp 2600
Manufactured by ARP Instruments, Inc., the
Arp 2600 was one of the most successful
synthesizers to come out of the 1970s.
They were ideal for players new to the synth
world, and allowed patches to be changed
via switches or 1/8" audio cables. The list of
recordings and artists that used the venerable
Arp 2600 reads like a veritable Who's Who of
rock, pop and jazz, and includes The Who,
David Bowie, John Lennon, Depeche Mode,
Edgar Winter, Frank Zappa and Herbie Hancock
– to name just a few. An Arp 2600 was even
used to create the voice of the Star Wars
character R2-D2.

Minimoog
Designed to replace the large, modular synths being used in pop music at the time, Bill Hemsath
and Robert Moog developed the Minimoog in 1971. The monophonic instrument became the
rst truly all-in-one, portable analog synthesizer. Thanks to its 3 oscillators and 24 dB/octave lter,
the Minimoog produces an extremely rich and powerful bass sound and is still in high demand today.
Yes keyboardist Rick Wakeman said the instrument “absolutely changed the face of music.”

Yamaha CS-80
In 1976, Yamaha released their CS-80 8-voice polyphonic synthesizer, which provided velocitysensitive keys and aftertouch that worked on individual voices. The analog instrument featured a
ribbon controller, which allowed the user to perform polyphonic pitch bends and smooth glissandos.
Composer Vangelis used the CS-80 extensively in the Blade Runner and Chariots of Fire soundtracks.
The CS-80 also provided the bass line heard in the BBC 1980 series Doctor Who theme song.

Which brings us to 1977...
A Passion for Keyboards
Our founder, Uli Behringer has a deep passion for keyboards. Born in the small town of Baden,
Switzerland in 1961, Uli grew up in a musical family where his mother taught him to play the
piano at the tender age of four. His father was a scientist who built a massive organ in the family
home and taught the young lad all about electronics. So at the age of 17, Behringer built his rst
synthesizer – the UB-1. Later, while attending college to seek a degree in audio engineering, Uli put
his electronics knowledge to use, building his own equalizers and signal processors to ll the gap
left by the university's inability to provide enough proper studio gear. Word soon spread about how
good his products were, and he began building gear for his friends – the BEHRINGER legacy had
begun. The rest, as they say, is history...

The FX Racks
We also included 4 simultaneous FX engines with over 33 world-class TC ELECTRONIC, MIDAS and KLARK TEKNIK algorithms – including Reverb,
Chorus, Flanger, Phaser, Delay, Multiband Distortion, and many more. Custom-designed and physically modeled after some of the most iconic
and sought-after processors, DEEPMIND 12’s FX were essentially “rebuilt” in the digital domain – and put right at your ngertips. All eects run
inside the low-latency environment of the DEEPMIND 12, ensuring awless performance and exible routing.
TC ELECTRONIC is synonymous with some of the best sounding reverbs found anywhere. The TC DEEP REVERB provides 9 iconic reverb modes
you know and love in tone eect that sounds insanely good. It’s amazing that just 4 controls (Decay, Tone and PreDelay) provide such a wide
range of tonal options – bright and springy, warm and bouncy, or gigantic dark reections. All that – and then some!
The Lexicon 480L* has been recognized as the gold standard of digital reverb, and we have included ve of the nest reverb models:
HALL, AMBIENT, RICH PLATE, ROOM and RICH CHAMBER. These models precisely capture all nuances based on our “True Physical Modeling”
and our algorithms even incorporate the unit’s AD/DA gain stepping converters – nailing the entire analog and digital circuit paths, right down
to the last detail. (Inspired by Lexicon 480L*)

dual, stereo-linked or mono and stereo operation. (Inspired by Fairchild 670*)
MIDAS MULTI-BAND DISTORTION is ideal for making the sound gritty, adding more warmth through saturation, or even enhancing a
specic frequency region. With 6 distortion types to choose from, you can go from softly-saturated to ultra-aggressive distorted tones –
and everything in-between.
The RACKAMP simulates the sound of plugging your instrument (or sound) into a real amplier. From shimmering cleans to saturated crunch,
the RACKAMP allows you to sound great – without using an amp on stage. (Inspired by Tech 21 SansAmp*)

STEREO CHORUS samples the input, slightly detunes it and mixes it with the original signal to produce a somewhat thicker, shimmering sound.
Use it to fatten up background vocals, or to double the sound of brass and woodwind instruments.
The DIMENSIONAL CHORUS is the perfect emulation of what has been referred to as “the best analog chorus unit ever created”. Four simple
Mode preset buttons activate amazing eects, best described as “space” and “dimension”. Absolutely faithful to the original, multiple preset
buttons can be pressed simultaneously. (Inspired by Roland Dimension D Chorus*)
The STEREO FLANGER emulates the phase-shifting sound (comb-ltering) originally created by applying pressure against the ange of the reel
on a tape recorder. This eect creates a unique “wobbly” sound that is quite dramatic when used on vocals and instruments.

Glorious 12-Note Polyphony
Playing chords and building textural soundscapes requires the ability to generate multiple notes
or sounds simultaneously. While early analog synthesizers were either monophonic (only 1 note
at a time), or somewhat limited in the number of sounds they could produce at the same time,
the DEEPMIND 12 boosts your creativity with 12-note polyphony. Each voice has 2 oscillators,
12
VOICES
with OSC 1 generating sawtooth and square/pulse waveforms with pulse width modulation,
and OSC 2 generates square/pulse waveforms with a unique tone modulation. With 24 oscillators
at your disposal, a tremendous range of options becomes available including the following
oscillator modes: Unison 12, 6, 4, 3, 2 Mono; Mono -2; Mono 4; Mono 6; Poly; Poly 6, and Poly 8.
The addition of oscillator sync, oscillator drift and parameter drift allow the recreation of the much
sought after warmth and movement found in vintage analog synthesizers, with greatly improved
reliability and stability.

The 7 available waveform shapes are; Sine; Triangle; Square; Ramp Up; Ramp Down; Sample and Hold, and Sample and Glide for an amazing
array of tonal options. The DEEPMIND 12 also oers a highly unusual Phase Link option for the polyphonic LFOs, allowing them to operate in
Unison (Mono), or link with an adjustable phase shift between voices. Additionally, the LFOs can track key pitch via the modulation matrix,
enabling cross mod type eects.

process. That goes for the selectable, dual slope 12/24 dB analog low pass lter with adjustable
resonance and tracking (per voice), and the 4 Envelope faders that smoothly transform individual
segments of the envelope between linear, exponential and reverse exponential curves.
Big, Fat Tones
DEEPMIND 12 provides your choice of powerful unison or poly modes, with detune, pan spread
and drift parameters, that can handle up to 12 voices per note for incredibly fat tones. And if
you want even more, just engage the global noise generator to expand the waveform options.
DEEPMIND 12's extreme versatility empowers you to be your creative best.
Polyphonic Portamento
While most synthesizers only allow simple mono portamento glides, the DEEPMIND 12 lets you create
stunningly smooth mono and polyphonic chord glissandos that will really get your juices owing.
Options include exible xed rate, xed time and exponential pitch glide modes of operation.
