BEHRINGER / BODE FREQUENCY SHIFTER 1630

The BEHRINGER / BODE FREQUENCY SHIFTER 1630 precisely shifts the entire frequency spectrum of the input signal from -5 kHz to +5 kHz.

■BODE FREQUENCY SHIFTER 1630
Behringer's BODE FREQUENCY SHIFTER 1630 is now available. Shift into high gear and get ready for the drop. It is an authentic reproduction of the famous module from the 1970s made with state-of-the-art circuitry, including a voltage-controlled beat frequency quadrature oscillator, to expand your setup. The BODE FREQUENCY SHIFTER may be just the component you need to fill that empty slot in your setup.

■Ready for Any Signal
The BODE FREQUENCY SHIFTER precisely shifts the entire frequency spectrum of the input signal from -5 kHz to +5 kHz. Simply connect any audio source and start turning the giant knob to lower or raise the frequency. The amount of shift can also be changed with the scale knob, and you can switch between linear or exponential control.

■Controls
Additional BODE FREQUENCY SHIFTER controls include a variable threshold squelch that minimizes carrier bleed-through and can be used to creatively modify the characteristics of the input signal. Up to three control voltages and up to four output signals can also be connected.
