Behringer 182 Sequencer Specification

The Behringer 182 Sequencer is a versatile and compact analog sequencer module designed for Eurorack systems, offering a robust solution for modular synth enthusiasts. It features two independent 8-step sequencers, allowing for simultaneous control of multiple sound sources or the chaining of sequences for extended patterns. Each sequencer is equipped with a dedicated CV output, gate output, and three-position switch per step, enabling intricate control over pitch and rhythm. The module supports a wide range of clock inputs, including internal, external, and manual step advance, ensuring seamless integration with other modular equipment. The CV range is fully adjustable, allowing for precise tuning and modulation control. The 182 Sequencer also includes a reset input for synchronizing sequences to external equipment, enhancing its flexibility in complex setups. Designed with performance in mind, it offers intuitive step programming and real-time manipulation capabilities, making it ideal for live performances and studio work alike. The build quality features rugged components and a user-friendly interface, ensuring durability and ease of use. Its compact size is perfect for portable setups, while its powerful functionality caters to both beginners and experienced users. The Behringer 182 Sequencer is an affordable yet feature-rich option for those looking to expand their modular systems with dynamic sequencing capabilities.

Behringer 182 Sequencer F.A.Q.

How do I sync the Behringer 182 Sequencer with other modular gear?

To sync the Behringer 182 Sequencer, use the clock input to receive external clock signals. Connect the clock output of the master device to the clock input of the 182. Adjust the clock rate as needed to match the tempo.

What should I do if the sequencer is not outputting any sound?

First, ensure that the sequencer is connected to a sound-producing module, like an oscillator. Check that the gate and CV outputs are properly patched. Verify that the sequencer steps are programmed with correct values.

How can I program a sequence on the Behringer 182?

Use the step buttons to select a step, and then adjust the pitch and gate knobs to set the desired note and length. Repeat for each step until the sequence is complete.

Can I use the Behringer 182 Sequencer to control a drum module?

Yes, you can use the gate outputs to trigger drum modules. Patch the gate output of the desired step to the trigger input of the drum module.

What maintenance does the Behringer 182 Sequencer require?

Regularly clean the surface and knobs with a dry cloth to prevent dust buildup. Periodically check connections and cables for wear and replace as needed.

How can I update the firmware on the Behringer 182 Sequencer?

Currently, the Behringer 182 does not support firmware updates as it is a purely analog sequencer. Ensure your device is updated by checking Behringer's official resources.

Is it possible to use the sequencer without a modular synth setup?

While the Behringer 182 is designed for modular setups, you can use it with other gear that accepts CV/gate signals, like compatible semi-modular synths.

How do I reset the sequence to the first step?

To reset the sequence, send a reset trigger to the reset input on the sequencer. This will return the sequence to the first step.

What should I do if the sequencer steps are not advancing correctly?

Check the clock input to ensure it is receiving a proper clock signal. Verify that the step mode is set correctly and not stuck in a hold or pause state.

Can I change the direction of the sequence playback?

Yes, the Behringer 182 allows you to change the direction of playback using the mode switch. You can select forward, reverse, or random playback modes.
