Behringer JT Mini Polyphonic 3-voice Analog Synthesizer

Inspired by the celestial synths of the 1980s, the Behringer JT Mini is a polyphonic, 3-voice analog synthesizer that supplies a sonic array punching far above its portability-focused form factor. Its tripartite architecture builds upon a 4-waveform VCO that features Saw, Triangle, Square, and Pulse options, with additional Polyphonic and Unison modes expanding your voicing versatility. A menagerie of onboard modulation includes PWM (pulse-width modulation), a 3-waveform LFO, and an ADSR envelope, with the LFO’s Saw, Triangle, and Square waves supplemented by a Random option, collectively giving way to galactic levels of evolving textures and dynamic effects, like tremolo, vibrato, and wah-wah. When it comes to texture, the JT Mini’s VCF (voltage-controlled filter) is raring to roar, thanks to its variable 2- and 4-pole options being augmented by a vintage-inspired circuit that boasts a delectable resonance control, conjuring classic tones and timbres that make its VCO’s, VCF’s, and VCA’s all-analog signal path sing with iconic character.

An arpeggiator and 16-step motion sequencer fill out the JT Mini’s rhythm section, while eight memory slots let you instantly record and recall your sequences’ finest motions and nuanced knob turns. Music Bliss synth scholars are especially impressed with the connectivity of this pint-sized powerhouse. Its 5-pin MIDI input gives way to comprehensive NRPN and CC control of every parameter; meanwhile, the 3.5-millimeter sync I/O lets you seamlessly integrate the JT Mini with supplementary synths, sequencers, samplers, and drum machines. Finally, the USB-C port not only handles MIDI, but also supports bus power from your computer, power banks, and smartphones. Spanning 27 capacitive-touch keys of evocative expression, the Behringer JT Mini is perfectly portable, pliable, and powerful.
