Proton comes as a big module in a case making it also Eurorack compatible. The input also has a level control a soft clipping circuit for processing external sound sources. Yes, there is also an external audio input that allows you to route to external signal to the filters. You get a mono output, a headphone socket, MIDI switch matrix, a MIDI input, USB connection an a power supply input. The back of the Proton is very similar to that of the Neutron. The synth also comes with super handy utility functions like attenuverters, multiples, signal/CV mixer and summer. Behringer added 64 patch points to the patch matrix giving you tons of options to design the wildest patches. And that’s where every semi-modular synths gets most exciting. The Proton is semi-modular, so you have a fixed signal flow and the option to break this by patching cables in the patch bay. All this is operable with 68 controls on the user interface. Besides these, it comes with 2 flexible LFOs, each with 5 waveforms, MIDI clock sync, key sync, phase and depth controls. Plus, you get two classic analog ADSR envelopes for modulating the VCFs for example.

Modulation side, you get two ASR envelopes with reverse/inverse/loop/bounce options to control VCAs and wave folder.

For additional rich harmonic content, Proton also hosts a multi-mode wave folder with symmetry and fold controls. Then, you get not a single but two self-oscillating, multi-mode filters (Moffatt design?) with parallel and serial configurations. Like the Neutron, it is a paraphonic synth allowing you to control both oscillators independently. There is also oscillator sync, pulse width modulation, a sub-oscillator for each oscillator and a noise generator. It features two oscillators with five different waveforms with smooth waveform blending from tone mod, pulse, sawtooth, triangle to sine. Proton is a semi-modular Synthesizer with a pure analog signal path (VCO, VCF and VCA designs). Matches the day of today’s new Synthesizer release. The Proton offers everything we love about the Neutron semi-modular Synthesizer but even deeper and more complex. It’s like having several synthesizers in one casing – a highly innovative concept never seen before. Years of hard work and 11 revisions later, we’re finally launching the Proton, the most powerful and complex semi-modular synth ever designed.
