Rhythmic analogue filter sequencing with MIDI and CV control
The Behringer BM-15M Resonance Filter is an analogue modulation pedal built around eight filter bands and 12 selectable rhythmic patterns. Rather than sweeping a single filter manually, the BM-15M sequences filters in time, creating animated movement that can pulse, step or evolve across your signal. Fast patterns generate percussive, groove-driven textures, while slower sequences produce sweeping, evolving motion ideal for pads and sustained chords.
Envelope control allows the filter response to react dynamically to playing intensity, adding expressive variation beyond fixed pattern sequencing. Rate and Pattern controls determine modulation speed and structure, while Drive introduces harmonic saturation for added edge. A Mix control balances dry and processed signal, enabling subtle motion or fully pronounced filtering.
MIDI via dual 5-pin DIN and USB-C allows tempo sync to DAW or drum machine, and CV inputs (0–5 V) provide control over Rate, Mix, Envelope and LFO sweep. Stereo outputs expand spatial possibilities, and an expression input supports real-time manipulation.
At Riffs & Licks Music, we think the BM-15M is ideal for guitarists, bassists and synth players who want tempo-locked filter animation and hands-on analogue character, particularly those building groove-based or rhythmically driven soundscapes.
