KOSMOS‑RGB is a new 4×4 RGB‑keypad interface designed for the KOSMOS2 generative sound engine.
It replaces the traditional screen‑based workflow with pure LED feedback and tactile control, turning KOSMOS2 into a compact, instrument‑like device that can be played entirely by feel.
Each key is color‑coded to represent a musical parameter — Density, Pitch, Speed, Volume — while the third row selects Japanese traditional scales (Hirajoshi, Miyakobushi, Insen, Pentatonic). The bottom row provides system functions such as Initialize, Mute, and Timbre Gacha (random Program Change with LED animation).
KOSMOS‑RGB is built for exhibitions, live generative performance, and long‑form autonomous playback, where clarity and immediacy matter more than menus or screens.
The interface runs on a Raspberry Pi Pico (RP2040), keeping the entire system lightweight, responsive, and DIY‑friendly."

He Made the Presets for This $2,500 Synth. Here's What He Left Out.
video upload by Vulture Culture
"I programmed some of the factory patches for the ASM Leviasynth. Tonight I'm giving away how I actually do it.
We're opening with a full cover of "Inner Universe" from Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex — every sound built on the Leviasynth, nothing else in the chain — and then we're building an original 2000s cyberpunk track from a completely empty patch, live, start to finish.
Here's the part most Leviasynth tutorials skip: you do NOT need to master 8-operator FM synthesis to get incredible sounds out of this thing. My easy-FM method uses one, two, maybe three operators to generate a raw waveform with some teeth on it — and then lets the Leviasynth's analog filter do all the real sculpting. Cheap FM, expensive filter. It's how I built most of my favorite factory patches, and by the end of tonight you'll be using it too.
WHAT WE'RE COVERING
The easy-FM method — 1-3 operators instead of complex algorithm programming
Why the ASM Leviasynth's analog filter is the best-kept secret on the instrument
Building a cyberpunk bass, arp, pad and lead from an init patch
Phase distortion on the Leviasynth — the Casio CZ sound hiding inside a 2026 synth
Getting noise-style texture out of a synth with no noise oscillator
Algorithm morphing as a musical performance tool, not a party trick
Sound design for anime soundtrack, cyberpunk, darksynth and industrial styles"
