Behringer BM-12 Ring Modulator (Analog)
The Behringer BM-12 Ring Modulator brings vintage analog magic into a compact, pedalboard-ready form. It delivers shimmering harmonics, metallic tones and experimental textures at the tap of a footswitch. Whether you’re shaping ambient guitar layers, adding character to synth lines or exploring bold studio effects, the BM-12 takes your sound into new creative territory.
Deep Control, Endless Possibilities
At its core, the BM-12 features a flexible carrier oscillator that moves from gentle tremolo to sharp, robotic modulation. You can sculpt your tone with dedicated Rate and Amount controls, while Frequency, Mix and Drive knobs let you fine-tune how the modulated signal blends, cuts or saturates in your mix. Moreover, switching between Hi and Lo carrier modes instantly changes the overall feel and response of the effect.
Studio-Grade Flexibility with CV Integration
Beyond the standard 1/4-inch input and output, rear-panel CV jacks invite the BM-12 into modular and semi-modular rigs. Patch external LFOs, sequencers or expression sources to command Rate, Amount, Mix or Frequency in real time, opening doors to intricate rhythmic patterns and evolving textures that keep listeners guessing.
Built for the Road, Ready for the Stage
Housed in a rugged metal enclosure, the BM-12 endures the rigors of touring while its 9V DC operation slots easily into any standard pedal power supply. A tactile bypass footswitch and clearly-labeled controls ensure fast, reliable adjustments under stage lights or in the studio.
