Excellent Synth
David Kellett 08.11.2021
This is a great synth. I have a modular system plus several semi modulars but the 2600 is a thing all to itsself. You can approach it as a semi modular but it’s really like a modular system in itself. Yes it can make noise straight out the box as it has normaled connections but once you get the patch cables out it really gets interesting. It’s clear to see why the original ARP was so revered the design is just so flexible and it has a “sound” all of its own.

Excellent reproduction with upgrades! Brings me back to the mid 70's. Thomman's service is excellent!

Amazing Behringer 2600!
acerimmer 19.03.2022
What can I say about this instrument?
I have been wanting one for a long time and so finally have one.
After all the reviews and video's I read / watched on this, they are all accurate.
If you like analog's and are into modular, this is a great addition to your setup.
Price point is fantastic to what you get.
Hardware is very well built...I have had absolutely no issues with this instrument. I have in mounted in a 19" rack and possibly later I will get a retro case to mount it in.
Sound is good from all 3 oscillators.
Make sure you watch the video's on how to get this setup if you are just beginning.
Well worth every penny and If I had room, I'd buy another :)
Have fun and thank you Behringer for bringing this iconic synth to the masses at an affordable price.

Amazing Synth & Amazing Deal
Vedic Space Program 08.06.2021
The B 2600 sounds great and is very flexible. It's fun to use and for someone who wants to get into synths or eurorack. I bought two 2600s and a 914 and 1047 filter to go with them.

I am sequencing with MIDI from my MPC X and using the 8 CV outs to modulate the 2600s.

The build quality of the 2600 exceeds my expectation. The case is solid and the sliders have the right amount of resistance. Best of all is the snug grip that the patch points have when you plug in the patch cables.

The only con is that the 2600 doesn't ship with patch cables in the box, so makes sure you buy some.

I live in Canada and I just needed to buy a different power cable to plug into the power supply that has a North American plug. The plug is easy to find and cost me $6. I bought from Thomann, because there are no 2600s available in the US or Canada.

2600 is awesome!
Miro S 01.09.2022
I think that I could write a book about how much I love this synth.

I bought it as a supplement for Behringer Odyssey. A lot of people already said that it doesn't sound like an "Odyssey Extended version". I agree with this, and thanks to those people, I didn't expect to get that. Does it take anything away from 2600? Absolutely not! 2600 is a beast!
it has a bit different sound than Odyssey, but it's still an analogue monster. They play well together too.
Oscillators are massive. Even one oscillator is good enough as the Lead synth. Two detuned saw/squares will shake the ground - instant techno leads. For real, I feel like using three synths at the same time is too much. For techno/trance anyway.
The filters are nice. With a bit of resonance sound becoming acidic, which I like a lot. A lot of resonance is good for FX but not for leads/basses in my opinion, but I'm not a fan of ladder filters. I grew up on Roland filters, and there is my preference. With all honestly, I prefer filters in Odyssey, but it's not stopping me from using 2600. Just not with lots of resonance.
Sending signals to Preamp is fun. No matter if it's 2600 itself or an external source. Distortion is massive with this one. Lots of fun.
Ok, I think that's enough for a short review.

I'm still on my discovery journey, so I can't say much more about other modules/utilities besides that they're doing their job flawlessly.
Oh, and I'm not a fan of the reverb. Not because it's digital. It's because spring reverb is not my thing. An additional reverb pedal (or Eurorack module) is recommended.

Anything about downsides? Oh yes. 2600 is the entry to the modular world no matter if you want it or not. You will start expanding 2600 with additional modules. I already got another LP/BP/HP filter (Ripples) and ADSR/LFO module. And then multiple module to trigger 2600 and Eurorack's ADSR from the sequencer. What will be next? I don't know, but surely, it's not the end. Beware! ;)

Hippie flower power machine
1 BPM 10.06.2021
Well, it took me a full day & night to figure out how to get any sound out of it. It is most exciting, once I figured out all the patching. The filter is just like from the flower power era, hippie style with no haute couture. The reverb sounds to me like more than retro vintage, but heck, that's the style of this 1970's synth hippie. I tried lots of digital synths before, returned all of them, and finally found in this 100% pure analog synth a reason to make music instead of being a computer technician.

Rob Keeble at AM Synth is the geneous behind this recreation of the ARP 2600. I honestly don't think there is a better version of it.

For the mone - you can't go wrong here
k300 13.07.2023
large-form factor yet rackable, fader-per-function, analog sound, great price. what's not to like? I augmented mine with a small eurorack and the possibilities are plenty! Definitely satisfied with the purchase. One note though - the VCF didn't get all the way to the very top of the frequency spectrum so I had to use the calibration port in order to nudge the cutoff a bit.

Traumesser 25.05.2021
I have no words, this synthesizer has stolen my heart. arrived extremely quickly. the digital spring reverb isn't perfect by any means, even as an avid spring reverb lover it really feels as if they kinda missed the mark with this spring reverb emulation.. but it's airy dissonance does add an interesting atmosphere to the sound. the reverb is by far it's weakest point on this instrument, which is actually saying something. everything else about it is super solid. the reverb isn't entirely unusable either, it's just not quite what you'd hope. nothing that can't be fixed with an outboard reverb, but it would've been nice if the built in reverb was a tad bit more usable. mind you, this is coming from someone who has owned a real spring reverb in the past (vermona) so I'm pretty keen on the authentic analog spring reverb tone. that being said, this spring emulation might be just fine for you. it's certainly not a deal breaker for me. wicked cool synth, would cop twice over (just might)

Epic analog synth
Ian 2600 06.02.2021
A classic brought back to life for a bargain price.
The semi-modular design means you can make sounds right away, or you can get a bit more creative with a few patch cables. It does not have a real spring reverb like the original, the digital reverb is quite good, but adding a real one brings the synth to life. A rackstand is another good investment, the Millenium 12U is ideal for me, as you can place the 2600 higher up, leaving space for other gear below.
