Behringer 1036 Eurorack Sample & Hold/Random Voltage Module

The Behringer 1036 Eurorack Sample & Hold/Random Voltage Module brings a staple of classic modular synthesis into the contemporary Eurorack format. Built around two independent sample & hold circuits, this 16HP module lets you capture and freeze incoming voltages on command, producing the staircase-style modulation patterns that have defined electronic music since the 1970s. Each circuit features its own controls, and the module includes an onboard clock with adjustable frequency so you can set the sampling rate directly from the front panel.

What sets the 1036 apart from a basic sample & hold is its built-in random voltage generator with adjustable level controls. This means you can create evolving, unpredictable modulation without needing a separate noise or random source in your rack. CV inputs for external control voltage, sample pulse commands, and clock rate modulation give you extensive options for integrating the module into complex patches. Whether you are building generative sequences, adding organic variation to filter sweeps, or experimenting with aleatoric composition, the Behringer 1036 provides the core functionality needed at a price point that keeps modular synthesis accessible.
