Lihuel Sosa & 1nd14 - Modulaciones (Techno + Arte generativo)

video upload by Modulaciones

"Musica Techno compuesta e interpretada en vivo sobre la marcha. El setup: una "groovebox", la Roland tr8s y el sintetizador polifonico Bree 6 de @gsmusicsynths (una bomba) Sin computadora y sin edición posterior, asi se escuchó en vivo.

VISUALES: 1nd14 (Arte generativo) / 1_n_d1_4_

Las visuales son desarrolladas mediante TouchDesigner, un entorno de programación visual orientado a la generación de contenidos en tiempo real.
El proceso de trabajo integra técnicas de síntesis visual, manipulación de video en tiempo real y diseño generativo, permitiendo que las imágenes evolucionen de manera orgánica y respondan a estímulos externos.

Este evento es organizado por la comunidad Modulaciones, un proyecto que reúne a los creadores Bianca Leveroni, Dan Chelger, Diego Scagni, Cintia Cejas, Evangelina Moldú, Roco Collado, Maxi Stork y Lihuel Sosa , y que además invitará a otros artistas en cada encuentro. Su propuesta integra performance, diálogo abierto con el público y una apuesta por la construcción colectiva por fuera del formato de show tradicional.

"Techno music composed and performed live on the fly. The setup: a 'groovebox' (Roland TR-8S) and the Bree 6 polyphonic synthesizer by @gsmusicsynths (an absolute beast). No computer, no post-production editing—this is exactly how it sounded live.

VISUALS: 1nd14 (Generative art) / 1_n_d1_4_

The visuals are created using TouchDesigner, a visual programming environment designed for real-time content generation.
The workflow integrates visual synthesis techniques, real-time video manipulation, and generative design, allowing the imagery to evolve organically and respond to external stimuli.

This event is organized by the Modulaciones community, a project bringing together creators Bianca Leveroni, Dan Chelger, Diego Scagni, Cintia Cejas, Evangelina Moldú, Roco Collado, Maxi Stork, and Lihuel Sosa, while also inviting other artists to join each gathering. Their approach combines performance and open dialogue with the audience, prioritizing collective creation over the traditional concert format.

MYSTERON : Make Noise's lost gem

video upload by Robotopsy Robotopsy

"The Mysteron is neither an oscillator nor a traditional instrument. It is a digital resonant structure whose behavior seems to oscillate between known physics and something less easily explained.

This demonstration explores its responses to different forms of excitation, its unpredictable resonances, and the soundscapes it generates when left to evolve freely."

30 min live performance.
I was using my LilaC Repeater.
The LilaC's loop range is changed by a MIDI keyboard."

Money, power and ... synths? - what synthesizers can tell us about geopolitics

video upload by Floyd Steinberg

Missed in South America: GS Music - Argentina, EMW - Brazil, and AtomoSynth - Peru. AnalogFX in Netherlands. Meng Qi is worth a DIY stand out mention for China as well as Aforack in Uganda, Africa. There's no way to list every manufacturer, but if he missed a country/region feel free to comment (feel free to comment regardless of course). It's an interesting video and a useful reminder of where manufacturers are based.

"If a country can support one or even more synthesizer manufacturers, that tells us a lot about its place in the world. I have some numbers to back this up, look at some of those synthesizer-producing countries and then make some predictions on their future trajectory.

Why Does This Synth Have Only One Oscillator? | Superbooth 2026

video upload by Music Journey with Paul

Chapters:
00:00 Introduction
00:59 Matt Johnson performing on Bree6
01:20 Bree6 - is one oscillator enough?
04:50 e7 presentation - the flagship synth
10:47 From hobby to family business
12:03 The only polysynths from Lating America
12:24 Finding a gap in the market
13:02 From idea to first customer
14:11 Argentina gave us Lionel Messi & GS Music

"GS Music is one of the most interesting boutique synthesizer companies I discovered at Superbooth 2026.

I spoke with Guido Salaya, the founder and lead engineer of GS Music, about how a small family business from Argentina grew into a company designing and manufacturing analog polyphonic synthesizers.

Their main instruments include the 7-voice GS Music e7 and the 6-voice Bree6, available as a desktop and keyboard version. At Superbooth 2026, GS Music also showed the new Bree6 Four Octave Edition - a 49-key, 4-octave version of their analog polysynth.

Featuring fantastic performance of ‪@MattJohnsonskeyspace‬ to show capabilities of Bree6.

In this interview we discuss:
why he built a synth with only one oscillator,
the philosophy behind keeping instruments simple,
how GS Music started as a hobby,
why they chose to build analog polyphonic synthesizers,
how product ideas become finished synthesizers,
the challenges of manufacturing hardware in Argentina,
what makes GS Music different from larger synth manufacturers.

If you enjoy boutique synthesizers and hearing the stories behind the people who build them, I think you’ll enjoy this conversation."

Precision Analogue Filter vs. Valve Timbre Sculpting // Swell from Bartola Instruments

video upload by DivKid and Bartola Instruments

"Here we have Swell the new filter and valve (tube for those in the US) sculpting Eurorack module from Bartola Instruments. This is the first commercially released Eurorack module from Bartola and follows many years of valve hi fi work and hundreds of Eurorack prototypes made in super small runs for musicians and friends. Swell offers masses of customisable sound sculpting marrying its precision low pass filtering with high flexible valve control. Whether it's cleaner, yet warm and gently compressed waves or all out untamed chaos there's a lot to explore as you'll see in the patches."

See Prolepsis here.

"A long one where I talk about the latest set up using the Ableton Push 3 Standalone, Eurorack modular and integrating the ‪@NativeInstruments‬ Z1 Mk II to add a new layer of live performance options to this set up. Systematically going through the the idea, developing the prototype, building one knob effect chains, MIDI mapping, channel groups, CV Instruments, External Audio Effects, routing audio via ADAT into Push and a whole heap more!
