Behringer CP3A-M Mixer (Unknown)
A Eurorack-format analog mixer module reproducing the circuitry of classic Moog modular systems.
Overview
The Behringer CP3A-M is a Eurorack synthesizer module designed as an authentic reproduction of the mixer circuitry from the Moog Modular 55, 35, and 15 series. Marketed as part of the Behringer System 55, it functions as a 4-input analog mixer with separate controls per channel and includes two sets of outputs with positive and negative polarity. The module features an all-discrete signal path with no integrated circuits, aiming to capture the vintage sound characteristics of the original Moog hardware. It also includes two 1-to-3 multiples for signal distribution.

Design
The CP3A-M uses an all-discrete signal path without any integrated circuits, faithfully replicating the circuitry of the original Moog CP3A mixer from the 1970s modular systems. It is designed to provide the same sonic character and gain structure, specifically modeling the right-hand side of the Moog CP3A, which features a gain of two.
Context
The CP3A-M is part of the Behringer System 55, a modern recreation of Moog's vintage modular synthesizer systems. It serves as a utility mixer module within the Eurorack format, intended to emulate the functionality and sound of the original Moog Modular 55, 35, and 15 series mixers.
