Behringer Neutron Semi-Modular Analog Synth

The Behringer Paraphonic Analogue and Semi-Modular Synthesizer with Dual 3340 VCOs, Multi-Mode VCF, 2 ADSRs, BBD Delay, and Overdrive Circuit in a Eurorack format. The modern synthesizer's evolution began in 1919 when a Russian physicist named Lev Termen (also known as Léon Theremin) invented one of the first 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 Theremin's use can be heard on the Beach Boys iconic smash hit 'Good Vibrations. 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 a natural-sounding vibrato by depressing a key and using side-to-side finger movements. You can hear the Ondioline on Del Shannon's 'Runaway'. Designed by famous piano manufacturer Story & Clark in association with RCA, the Storytone piano debuted at the 1939 New York Worlds Fair. Hailed as the world's first electric piano, the Storytone is prized by musicians and collectors alike for its realistic piano sound only 500 or so were ever built. 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 temperamental 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.
