Modular synthesizer module Behringer SURGES

Behringer SURGES is a eurorack-compatible modular synthesizer module intended for integration into modular rigs. Designed by Behringer for sound design and synthesis workflows, the module provides signal generation and processing features that fit into studio and live setups. It supports patchable synthesis, tone shaping and experimental sound creation within a modular system.

Advantages

The module offers compact eurorack form factor compatibility and straightforward connectivity for patching with other modular units. Its design emphasizes hands-on control and flexible signal routing for creating evolving textures and complex timbres. Built for both studio use and stage rigs, the module integrates with common modular power and CV standards without requiring additional converters.

Suitable for

• Modular synthesis patching in eurorack systems
• Sound design for studio productions and experimental music
• Live performance setups that use modular gear
• Educational demonstrations of modular signal flow and synthesis techniques

Key specifications

• Eurorack-compatible form factor for integration into modular cases
• Multiple signal inputs and outputs for patching and modulation
• Controls for shaping waveform, pitch and modulation depth
• Low-noise analog/digital circuitry suitable for audio-rate signals
• Standard CV/Gate compatibility for synchronization with other modules

How to use

Install the module in a eurorack case using the appropriate power ribbon and mounting screws, observing case power specifications. Connect audio and control voltage (CV) patch cables between SURGES and other modules to route oscillators, filters, envelopes or effects. Adjust front-panel controls to set waveform character, pitch and modulation amounts, and experiment with different patch routings to achieve desired textures and timbres. When integrating into a live setup, test levels and CV ranges during soundcheck to ensure stable behavior on stage.

Usage recommendations

For reliable operation, use a compatible eurorack power supply and avoid exceeding recommended CV and audio input ranges. Combine the module with filters, VCAs and envelopes to shape raw tones into finished sounds, and use buffered multiples or mixers when splitting signals to preserve level and impedance.
