The New Behringer SYSTEM – 15/35/55 Series
Behringer introduces Knockoffs Of Moog Model 15, System 35 & System 55 Modular Synthesizers
Today, Behringer officially introduced Euro-format versions of three classic Moog modular systems: the Model 15, System 35 and System 55.
The Behringer System-15/35/55 Series Eurorack Synthesizers bring together the company’s previously released Euro-format Moog module knockoffs and pre-assemble them in their Eurorack Go cases.
The systems feature essentially the same selection of modules as the originals, but add Behringer’s CM1A MIDI-to-CV/GATE converter, so that the systems can easily be used with standard MIDI controllers.
And, since the modules are smaller, use modern components and avoid using the traditional hand-stuffed circuit boards and manual assembly of Moog’s limited-edition reissues, the Behringer systems are available at about a tenth of the price.
Here’s what Behringer has to say about the systems:
“The SYSTEM 15 is an amazing tool for those who are just starting down the psychedelic, neon-bathed road of modular synthesis.
This whole setup comes equipped with a 921A OSCILLATOR DRIVERS, two 921B VCOs and a 921 VCO all of which provide three fully featured voices that you can adjust and tweak any way you want! The CP3A-M MIXER module allows you to mix up to four inputs which you can then patch out to other modules. Want a nice pad to your song? Have one signal go to a delay module and have another go into a step sequencer or other modules in the SYSTEM 15 for more intricate patches and hours and hours of fun!
The SYSTEM 15 also includes the CP35 ATTENUATOR module with 4 linked attenuators and two sets of 4 multiples and reference voltages. Connecting a single signal to the CP35’s first input will allow it to pass to all 4 outputs. This allows you to have up to 4 variable outputs of a single signal source. Also included are two banks of 4-point multiple circuits for you to be able to route multiple copies of input signals to other modules.

The SYSTEM 55 is an amazing tool for those who want the ultimate modular synthesizer capable of fully scoring that next cyberpunk or sci-fi movie from start to finish.
This entire setup comes equipped with a 914 FIXED FILTER BANK which features 12 active bandpass filters ranging from 125 Hz to 5.6 kHz with additional Low Pass and High Pass filters and one 923 FILTER MODULE with separate Low and High Pass filters each with their own dedicated frequency cutoff controls and jacks for both pink and white noise. But that’s only the start, with the SYSTEM 55 comes with so many more modules, you’re sure to have hours and hours of fun creating beats that you can just lose yourself in.”
