Modular SynthesisThe 80s was the golden age of electronic music. Synthesizers were at their prime and almost every hit song and movie soundtrack at that time had a synth in one form or another. Modular synths have become more and more popular with professionals and enthusiasts over the years and they’re about to get even better. | SYSTEM 100 182 SEQUENCERThis is the Behringer System 100 182 SEQUENCER Module. A 2-channel 8-step analog sequencer with each with its own control voltage knob and global Tempo, Delay and Gate time Adjustments. This is an authentic reproduction of the original “System 100M†circuitry from the 80s that can fit in a standard Eurorack case. Mix the 182 in with your existing rig or start your modular synth journey from here. Either way you’re sure to have a lot of fun! | A Sequence of Amazing EventsEach step in the 182 SEQUENCER’s two channels comes with its own control voltage knob to alter VCO pitch for example. The Tempo, Delay and Gate Time knobs control how fast the sequencer cycles; how fast the notes rise and fall; the pulse width of the Gate output. Each channel CV output can control other modules for a lot of really amazing tone shaping possibilities. You can take channel 1 and plug it into your favorite VCO and VCF chain while channel 2 can sequence other modules like a VCA fed from a noise generator which can add a great percussive sound to a sequence. |

From 8 to 16The 182 can do more than just 8-steps. Switching to series mode transforms the 182 into a 16-step sequencer; going through all 8-steps of each channel sequentially so you can create longer and more intricate arpeggios and create really fantastic music. Adding to the 182’s flexibility, the Step switch allows for repeating sequences or one single cycle of the sequence. The Step number knob can be used to determine the length of a sequence between 1 and 16 steps. | Eurorack ReadyInstalling the 182 SEQUENCER is simple as it was designed to fit into a standard Eurorack case. Just connect the power cables to the power supply and mount the module using the included screws. This allows for the 182 SEQUENCER to be mixed with other synth modules for a truly unique set up. | Complete Your CollectionWhether you’re just getting into modular synths or looking to complete your collection, the 182 SEQUENCER module from Behringer is a great tool to have when creating amazing music. |

A fantastic module at a fantastic price. Don’t just think of this as a pitch sequencer. It’s great for any situation where you want to changing CV values. On the Behringer Brains you can select DX7 patches via CV. So I used this sequencer to change patches for me.
The module is a little big. But for what it does and what it costs, it’s hard to beat.
I now have the full collection of the 100m modules and they make me want to use my modular more than ever. I’ve always wanted the original Roland, but they’re simply way too expensive, I have DIY’d some of the 100m modules in the past, but the part-cost alone (without taking the build time into account) is on par with a fully built unit, the Behringer versions have a really good finish too – way better looking than the Roland 500 series in my opinion. Each of my shelves is 168HP, which fits all units in (minus the 110 which is just cut down vesrions of what is already available in other modules). Aesthetically pleasing with a great build quality, especially for the money. Behringer are doing a wonderful job of bringing what have always been exuberantly overpriced modules affordable to the consumer, About time the other major players started to do the same. Keep up the great work, Behringer!
This is a close-as-this recreation of the old Roland 100M sequencer, even down to the grey colour. The only thing changed is the lack of a 5 or 3 volt CV output selector. Not too much of a difference to my mind. Works as expected and fits nicely into it’s Eurorack housing, (separate purchase).
Conclusion: If you want to relive the glory days of Roland modulars, this is as close as you’ll get. The build isn’t quite as robust as the original, but you get what you pay for. For a little more cash, you can get the Korg SQ-1 sequencer, which is far more flexible and works over MIDI too. It also acts as a MIDI to CV convertor. I have one of these and two of the Korgs and prefer the Korgs for their greater flexibility, but bear in mind that they are not Eurorack compatible, if that matters to you.
