Three years since it was first announced, Behringer has made the 2-XM available for pre-order. 2-XM is the company's clone of the historic Oberheim Two Voice analogue synth, which combined two single-voice Oberheim SEMs in a single instrument, joined by a Dave Rossum-designed keyboard and two-channel sequencer.
Though it lacks a keyboard and has been reimagined in a Eurorack-friendly format with some modern enhancements, Behringer's duophonic 2-XM nonetheless recreates the design of the Two Voice faithfully. Each of its two modules is equipped with two VCOs based on original Oberheim designs, with saw and pulse waveforms, PWM and oscillator sync on offer.
