Behringer Deepmind 12 12-Voice 49-Key Synthesizer

Unique and Innovative Design

The Behringer DeepMind 12 Synthesiser is a 12-voice analogue polysynth with 49-keys alongside four digital FX engines, offering a range of high-quality algorithms created by world-class audio professionals. The DeepMind 12 integrates a range of high-quality components and functions, including two digitally controlled oscillators and two LFOs per voice for a truly versatile and customisable sound. With three envelopes for a further level of control and adjustment of your audio, the Behringer DeepMind 12 is ideal for studio and recording work, whilst offering a completely unique and innovative approach to live performance work.

Extensive Wireless Control

A unique function of the DeepMind 12 is the built-in Wi-Fi, offering wireless control over most adjustable parameters, via your tablet. This is an extremely convenient and efficient alternative for controlling your device, allowing you to enhance your workflow and creativity during production and performances. The keyboard itself features 49 velocity-sensitive keys with aftertouch, for a realistic and playable keying experience. A detune fader, noise generator, and an extensive 8-bus modulation matrix are all great additions to the DeepMind 12, making it a very high-performing synth at a very cost-efficient price point.

Variety Of Modulation Controls

The Behringer DeepMind 12 features a wide variety of parameters and controls you can use to get the most out of the synthesizer. An integrated 32-step control sequencer with adjustable slew rate and MIDI sync gives you the ability to create complex rhythms and patterns on the fly, ideal for creating synth runs, rhythms tracks and more. The 8-channel modulation matrix opens up a world of possibilities when it comes to your effects, allowing you to do everything from modulating reverb tails to controlling the compressor via the mod wheel. 19 modulation sources with more than 130 destinations are included to provide in-depth modulation control, with press and hold short cuts making it easier than ever before to control your effects. The modulation sources can be mapped across more than 30 destinations, giving you limitless options when it comes to controlling your effects.

World-Class FX Engines

DeepMind 12 includes 4 simultaneous FX engines with over 33 world-class TC Electronic, Midas and Klark Teknik algorithms, giving you more than enough effects to change the shape and style of your sound. The effects range from Reverb, Delay, Chorus to Multiband Distortion, Phaser and more. The wide variety of effects are custom-designed and physically modeled after some of the most renowned FX processors in the world. The low-latency performance and flexible routing only serves to boost its performance and your control over your sounds.

Connectivity & Integration

The Behringer DeepMind 12 has a whole host of connectivity including fully servo-balanced stereo TRS outputs allowing you to feed audio to mixing consoles and amplifiers. A headphone input is also included for private listening as well as Sustain, Pedal/CV, MIDI (IN, Out, Thru) for expression pedals, sustain pedal and connecting to external MIDI-enabled devices. A MIDI USB connection is also incorporated for connecting the synth to your computer and DAW, as well as allowing you to update the firmware. The MIDI connectivity includes NRPN/CC control of all parameters and bulk load/save, allowing you to create custom mapping with ease.
