Ballad of the Wind Fish (Yamaha DX7 & Moog Sub 37)
Published on Sep 28, 2019 Marcus Padrini
"Many game soundtracks, especially Nintendo classics, are memorable. With Link's Awakening's relaunch for Switch, this theme was on the head again, immediately. So this is a brief and simple version of Ballad of the Wind Fish with Yamaha DX7 and Moog Sub 37."

Two DW-8000's controlled with DW-8P
Published on Sep 28, 2019 Retroaktiv Synthesizers
"In this video, I'm using two DW-8000 synths, along with the 'velocity controlled ramp generator' feature of the DW-8P controller, to use velocity to "scoop" into notes. The harder I play, the more scoop there is. I also have an ASSIGN set up on the DW-8P, which routes my mod-wheel to control the VCF cutoff and DETUNE of both DW-8000s."

Real-Time Touch Control Surface For The Yamaha DX7IID Synthesizer
Published on Sep 25, 2019 george barlow
"Yamaha DX7 with real-time touch control panel. You can't do this stuff with menus. I wanted dynamic control, so I designed this touch-controller. It uses a unique design for reducing interference form external electrical noise, which lets it be very responsive...
The sensors I use are virtually immune to external electrical noise, which lets them be very responsive & reliable. This is a crude concept prototype. It uses midi to communicate with the synthesizer, and a parallel interface to an old laptop computer for the actual computing. Sure beats using menus."

01-The Behringer VC340 Vocoder-Part 1-Series Theme
Published on Sep 28, 2019 AutomaticGainsay
"Here is most of the music created for the Behringer VC340 demonstrative series. All vocoding was created with the VC340 (with the VC340 primarily, but a couple of instances of other synths connected to the external input). All string and human voice sounds are the VC340. The bass was recorded on a Behringer D. The drums were sequenced on a Korg Triton LE."

The First Songs to Use a Synth
Published on Sep 27, 2019 David Bennett Piano
"Most pop music today features ample synth, but when did the sound of the synthesizer first start featuring in pop and rock music? I take a look at some of pop music's synth pioneers, including The Beatles, The Beach Boys, Wendy Carlos, Paul Beaver and Max Crook."
Buchla doesn't get mentioned, but still a pretty cool video.

Kilpatrick PHENOL Stereo Ambient Noise #TTNM
Published on Sep 28, 2019 THE TUESDAY NIGHT MACHINES
"An ambient noise piece with the PHENOL modular synthesizer. MORE INFO BELOW :)
♥ SUPPORT: http://bit.ly/ttnm-support ♥
I patched the Bandpass filter in a feedback loop to make it self-oscillate to use it as a VCO. Then I created a stereo autopan patch with a slow sine wave LFO, the Adder and two VCAs. And finally I set both envelopes into arpeggiator mode and to sequence the Bandpass filter and VCO 1, which is FM'ed by VCO 2. The aliasing and noise comes from the onboard lo-fi delay effect and the pop sound is the slow random LFO modulating the stereo position abruptly. I liked those artefacts so I left them in the patch as they are."

"Incredible vintage sound, and works near perfectly, except for TWO MINOR FLAWS:
1) The pot on the delay slider is loose, and the slider itself is slightly wobbly. The delay slider usually works as intended between 0% and about 25%, but then if you push it higher than 25% the note just drones on perpetually.
2) The wire on one side of the power transformer is loose, and so if the wire is bent at the wrong angle the synth won’t power on. However, I have the loose section of wire bound up tightly with electrical tape, which keeps things working as they should unless the wire is really twisted around badly. Plus I’m sure it would be a very easy fix."

THREETOM modular / Steve's MS-22 Dual VCF / Sequenced modulation
Published on Sep 26, 2019 Threetom Modular
"Hi, my name is Tom, and I’m the guy behind THREETOM Modular Synthesizers, a small Eurorack business based in Belgium. Steve’s MS-22 is my first module. Steve’s MS-22 is a dual voltage controlled filter (inspired upon a classic OTA design) with an innovative modulation matrix and one of the highest function-to-hp ratios in the land of Eurorack.
Check out my latest demo video, where I sequence both the FCV and ACV inputs of Steve's MS-22. This leads to some very interesting results.
General features
- Dual VCF inspired by the Korg MS-20 OTA filter
- Low-pass into high-pass configuration
- Innovative modulation matrix allows CV control over all parameters
- Cut-off frequencies can be linked, resulting in a band pass filter with controlable bandwidth
- Bipolar monitoring LEDS for the LP, HP, resonance and gain CV signals
- One of the best functionality-to-size ratios in Eurorack with a width of 4 HP and a depth of 45 mm
I’m planning to make a small handbuilt batch available in the next weeks or so, price TBA.

Meet the Makers of Modular on TechCrunch
This one was spotted and sent in via Steve. You can find the article on TechCrunch here. It's pretty amazing to think how far the modular resurgence has come. Pictured is the father of eurorack himself, Dieter Dopfer.
"When Dieter Döpfer, the founder of music instrument manufacturer Doepfer, decided to launch a brand new modular synthesiser system in 1995, no one could have predicted what would follow. Today, his “Eurorack” format supports an ecosystem of hundreds of manufacturers that have collectively produced thousands of compatible modules used by famous musicians, such as Radiohead, Chemical Brothers and Aphex Twin, and hobbyists alike.
Fuelled by passion not venture capital, most companies in the Eurorack space are neither startups nor established OEMs. Instead – and quite remarkably – the industry remains a long tail of boutique manufacturers, with some of the best-sellers still operating as one-person shops. Inspired by technology that is almost half a century old, and intentionally designed not to scale, these businesses might well be considered the anti-Crunch..."

"Works as a sound module ONLY. All the sliders, knobs, midi, audio works. Had the red glue issue before, all of the key weights are gone except for 3 keys. The last 2 keys has some glue residue but it was soak so it is no longer sticky. 3 keys appears lighter color than the rest of the keys. The last highest C key has a crack on the inside as seen in the picture. Cosmetically the front, side, rear, & bottom panels is in very good cosmetic shape with just minor marks/scratches."

Patch of the Week 25: volca modular + eurorack pitch quantization
Published on Sep 28, 2019 Korg
"Using the Blue Lantern Duo Quantize, the 2HP LFO, and the Intellijel uVCA, we send quantized pitch information into volca modular’s CV input. This is a way of sending external pitch information into volca modular from a eurorack source, because volca modular will scale eurorack volts/octave pitch control voltage into its internal voltage via its CV input"
