Chaos-Core Synthesizer - Demo #2

"A devastation machine. Two crude triangle wave VCOs shorted together and FM'ing each other. Sent through the most insane distortion/waveshaper/mystery circuit I can muster. Every knob affects every other knob.

Demo done by Mary, the legendary noisebox maker behind ye old Marbeau Synth!"

Plinky 12 Chords and Model:Samples


video upload by Making Sound Machines

"In this video, Enrica and Roland from Making Sound Machines play a melodic techno track, performing live with the built-in polyphonic arpeggiator and the sound modulation in Plinky 12 Chords.

Plinky 12 receives a MIDI clock signal from the Elektron Model:Samples, synchronizing tempo and transport between both devices. Model:Samples is a fantastic all-digital drum machine and provides the beats you hear in this clip. All synth sounds are produced with Plinky 12's internal synth engine.

Plinky 12's sequencer advances through a harmonic progression, while Roland performs on the touch surface, editing the polyphonic arpeggio. As the track progresses, he taps the touch surface to add or delete notes in the arp pattern.

Enrica operates the model cycles, bringing in layers of drums, while Roland manipulates the XY pad on Plinky 12, modulating the synth and effects setting. This allows them to build and adjust the arrangement on the fly.

This track was composed for a live set at Club Synth, an event our friends Stijn and Priscilla from This is Not Rocket Science are hosting and organizing quarterly at Ruigoord near Amsterdam. Thank you for inviting us and putting in the hard work to create such a lovely event!"

MEDITATIONS ON DEATH | Solar 42F, Vongon Replay, Intellijel Swells & Jellymix, Fieldtone Weaver


video upload by Jay Hosking

"Please support my work on Patreon: / jayhosking
A live synthesizer jam performed entirely on hardware, with the 42F at the centre.

00:00 - Childhood and adolescence
04:10 - Adulthood
08:42 - Senescence

This is perhaps the first of a number of longer-form performances focused on some existential themes. I thought perhaps I might use the Solar 42F for all of them; I may still, but I also don't want to limit myself with any arbitrary rules, so we'll see.

Thanks for listening.

Elta Solar 42F - arp, sirens, drone chords
Vongon Replay - melody/lead synth
Fieldtone Weaver - sample weirdness 1
Qu-Bit Stardust - sample weirdness 2
Intellijel Swells - reverb on everything
Intellijel Jellymix - mixer

Performed and recorded live to a stereo output, with EQ, compression, and limiting on the master.

Moog Labyrinth Demo Song Sounds Chat and Stats


video upload by Take the Fear out the Gear

"Hi everybody this time we bring you the Moog Labyrinth Demo Song, Sounds, Chat and Stats

The Moog Labyrinth is a semi-modular, parallel generative analog synthesizer designed for creating evolving, complex sonic textures and percussive, melodic patterns. It features dual eight-step sequencers utilizing chance operations and 'corrupt' controls to produce randomized, polymetric melodies. Labyrinth blends traditional Moog analog warmth with West Coast-style synthesis, including a voltage-controlled wavefolder, ring modulation, and a state-variable filter

-CALC- Les daims aux bois III - Atrium study- Whimsical Raps,


video upload by -CALC-

"I've been sitting with this piece for a good few weeks.
It was originally recorded on holiday as audio in a forest in France but I wanted to capture the patch in video form too. The original audio take has more magic than this version to me (perhaps it was the time and place) but the core is still there in this take.

Atrium is using a sub-selection of 31EDO notes with 5 clusters forming the harmonic basis and freqs is also mapped to notes to give another 5 subset of offset chords based on the clusters. These subsets are controlled by a sustain lower limit control to give an easy access performance control. The voice is mostly exploring simple use of the Form synth and the overtones/multiphonics give several other harmonies to explore.

Initially the LFO is muted but creeps in mapped to voicing to add movement.

There is some additional reverb from a TX-6 mixer but other than that its all Atrium.

I find this patch incredibly meditative and love journeying through the consonant world it inhabits. Atrium is capable of so much more sonically but this is a place that feels safe and content and I keep returning.

The patch is shared in the Atrium Discord for those interested to try it out."

video upload by Somnambule

"Hi folks!

I’m inviting you to another session — this time, a step further inward into the Swedenborg Raum…

The title is inspired by Emanuel Swedenborg, who described spiritual spaces — layers that are not physical, yet still hold structure. Places shaped more by perception than by matter.

This session moves within that space: between structure and dissolution, between control and the moment when sound begins to take on a life of its own.

Recorded with the Polygene II by Gene Synths, a powerful tool for creating subtle textures, evolving layers, and deep atmospheric sound design.

This is a dark ambient / spiritual synth exploration — slow, immersive, and intended for focused listening.

If you choose to engage with it, don’t treat it as background. Let it run, and see what unfolds.

Bes sound wirh headphones, recording raw and rough, no audio postproduction 🖖👽"
