Description
BEHRINGER 2600 PATCH BOOK – 500 ORIGINAL PATCHES
By TSL Studio | Digital PDF Book | Made in Greece
Unlock the full creative potential of your Behringer 2600 semi-modular analog synthesizer with the 2600 Patch Book by TSL Studio – a comprehensive sound-design collection featuring 500 original patches created specifically for this book.
From powerful analog basses and expressive leads to rich pads, oscillator sync, FM textures, duophonic sounds, rhythmic sequences, percussion, cinematic effects and experimental modular-style sounds, this book takes you deep into the sonic possibilities of the Behringer 2600.
Every patch is presented with detailed panel settings, clearly marked slider positions, switch configurations, sound descriptions and practical playing tips. The dedicated Patchbay Lab also explores creative cable connections that go beyond the synthesizer’s normal signal routing.
Whether you are searching for your next signature sound or want to understand the instrument more deeply, this book provides a practical reference for sound creation, experimentation and inspiration.
500 PATCHES — 12 SOUND CATEGORIES
The book is organized into 12 chapters, making it easy to find the type of sound you need.
1. Bass — Patches 001–050 (50 patches)
Punchy analog basses, fat pulse tones, detuned oscillator stacks, resonant acid sounds, sync growls, ring-modulated basses and more.
2. Lead — Patches 051–100 (50 patches)
Expressive synthesizer leads for melodies, solos, hooks and powerful analog lines.
3. Sync & FM — Patches 101–140 (40 patches)
Aggressive oscillator-sync tones, metallic textures, complex harmonics and FM-inspired sounds.
4. Pads & Strings — Patches 141–175 (35 patches)
Slow swells, lush textures, sustained analog tones and evolving string-style sounds.
5. Brass & Winds — Patches 176–200 (25 patches)
Brassy stabs, bold synthesized brass, reedy tones and expressive wind-like textures.
6. Keys & Plucks — Patches 201–230 (30 patches)
Percussive keyboard sounds, plucked tones and articulate sounds for melodic parts.
7. Duophonic — Patches 231–250 (20 patches)
Explore two-note playing and the distinctive duophonic capabilities of the Behringer 2600.
8. Sequences & S/H — Patches 251–285 (35 patches)
Repeating patterns, sample-and-hold modulation, stepped movements and sequence-inspired sounds.
9. Percussion — Patches 286–325 (40 patches)
Synthetic percussion, electronic hits and experimental rhythmic sounds.
10. Sound FX — Patches 326–370 (45 patches)
Unusual textures, dramatic effects, evolving transitions and experimental sound design.
11. Drones & Ambient — Patches 371–395 (25 patches)
Sustained drones, atmospheric layers and slowly evolving sonic textures.
12. Patchbay Lab — Patches 396–500 (105 patches)
Discover creative routing techniques using the 2600’s patchbay, including modulation, envelope routing, audio-rate FM, sample-and-hold techniques, external audio processing and feedback experiments.
Across the entire book, 125 patches make use of the patchbay, opening up additional possibilities beyond conventional panel programming.
EVERY PATCH EXPLAINED IN DETAIL
Each patch is designed to be easy to reproduce and explore on your own synthesizer.
Every patch page includes:
- Detailed panel diagrams with the intended settings marked in orange.
- Numerical slider settings from 0 to 10 for precise reference.
- Switch positions clearly indicated and documented.
- Oscillator tuning guidance, including semitone intervals where required.
- Sound descriptions explaining the character and construction of each patch.
- Three practical playing tips to help you get the most from the sound.
- Patchbay connection instructions for cable-based patches.
- A notes area for recording your own adjustments and variations.
The book also explains how to read the diagrams, interpret the slider values and reproduce the intended settings. Where oscillator tuning is required, practical guidance is provided for tuning by ear.
MORE THAN 500 SOUNDS
This is also a practical guide to understanding and programming the Behringer 2600.
The introductory reference section includes:

Blank Patch Pages
Dedicated templates for documenting and saving your own synthesizer patches.
CREATE, EXPLORE & MAKE MUSIC
The Behringer 2600 is capable of much more than conventional analog sounds. This collection encourages you to explore its three oscillators, filter circuits, modulation options, sample-and-hold section, ring modulator and semi-modular patchbay.
Use the patches as starting points, adapt the settings to your playing style, and develop your own sounds for electronic music, studio production, soundtracks, experimental music and live performance.
All 500 patches, their names, descriptions and playing tips were created for this book. You are free to use the sounds you create from these patches in your own music.
