"This video is a test demo for the new Scales functionalities for the #ts1 #trigger #sequencer"

"The first part of a jam I had with the Empress Reverb and the Korg Monotribe. [part 2 here]
Chopping this one into 2 or 3 parts so I can edit in smaller chunks.
I am extremely pleased with the Empress Reverb, it will reliably take everything I throw at it with no unwanted artificial artefacts or clipping. It is early days and I am sure I will have plenty to learn and discover.

The Korg Monotribe is probably my favourite little synth. the analog mono synth sounds great and it is surprisingly versatile for the few controls it has. The touch keyboard and sequencer encourage creativity and improvisation and it got drums.

Arturia Teaser for SUPERBOOTH May 10th 2022

Full-tilt jam with Polyend Tracker and Novation AFX Station


video upload by

"A live, semi-improvised track performed entirely on hardware.

It had been a while, and I just got a battery pack for USB gear, so I thought I'd take the Tracker for another spin. It turns out that the Tracker is one of those devices that I love more and more with every time I use it. Songwriting is getting faster on it, and its performance effects are my current favourite for getting wild with drum parts. Rearranging the sequence allows a level of complexity that you just can't get with a beat repeat! And the fact that you can then take those performance effects and apply them to other tracks instead makes the Tracker extremely flexible and fun for making jams.

I added the AFX Station at the last minute because I wanted something I could play notes on, and because I wanted something melodic to end the track. The AFX Station is just the right sound, size, and shape for a jam with the Tracker, and its filter and drive are (in my opinion) underrated. It may just be a Novation Bass Station II in disguise, but it's an awesome analog mono synth.

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

MT32-PI: Doomsday device?


video upload by Floyd Steinberg

"This week, let's build and take a look at the #MT32 PI, another 'bare metal' synthesizer running on #RaspberryPi. This is an emulator for the late #80s Roland MT-32 sound module, which was used by a lot of games for their sound track. The MT-32 PI can also load soundfonts, so you can use it as a ROMpler in your setup. Table of contents:

00:00 introduction

NEW HABITAT BEAT [ TE OP-1 OP-Z AND CHASEBLISS HABIT ]


video upload by leonardoworx

"This is a really fun Lo-fi boombap tune made with the Teenage Engineering OP-Z and OP-1 (paired with the wonderful ChaseBliss Habit).
While the OP-Z is used for drum parts and bass line, the OP-1 is used (also live) to send melodies processed by the Habit, that create a stunning melodic 'Chaos' :)

This tune will be in the tracklist of my upcoming album "UNCOMMON", available on all digital music platforms since next Tuesday 10th May."

Synths used were mainly the Moog Grandmother for bass (Tonus VCF for the filter), the Sequential Pro 3 for the pluck sound & Elektron Model Samples for drums. I also used soft synths for additional synths & toms."

Korg ES-50 Lambda w/ Mod for 5 Tone Levels

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.


via this auction

"Warmest smoothest richest pad poly synth out there, all you have to do is use a low pass filter (or EQ if in DAW) to bring down the highs. You can analog/infinite detune 3 oscillators which opens up a whole world of subtlety, and you can hold/tape down as many notes as you like which is amazing. Very different structure than most poly synths.

This synth has also been modified to have individual level controls for all 5 tones. This brings the customizations of pads to a very fine level. The hookups inside would also work just as well for 5 direct outs if you wanted that, and also as a location for putting direct INs to use the great chorus. You can then still keep the pots. Anyways, you can build whatever you want with these wires if you are moderately DIY savvy.

I can also delete the mod if you prefer to just not have those extra controls. I can also prepare the wiring inside to be reduced but ready for your own buildout… maybe you want to drill holes in the actual synth face to mount the 5 pots. It’s all pretty easy since the electronic and wiring part is already done.

I am also happy to offer a custom installation of the 5 pots directly into the face or wood somewhere to your specifications. No added cost for this. You can pick the pots if you like, and have them shipped to me to install them. Then you can choose whatever knobs/caps you like to go on your pots. If you wanted a more elaborate mod build we could talk about a fee.

I did some basic maintenance keeping pots and switches internally clean and noise/scratch free. So this synth sounds great. No issues.

There is an old mod/fix that someone did where they replaced the plastic Percussion button with a different kind of metal switch. Changes nothing about the performance. Maybe the old plastic button had broken."

Resonator I [ EURORACK ] Mutable Instruments RINGS + BEADS + SHADES


video upload by R. P. Gould

"I don't think anybody has ever tried going from Rings into Beads or Clouds before ;)
Was just missing a succulent plant and I think this video would be the most groundbreaking synthesizer vid ever. Shockingly, Rings and Beads make a good pair.
Also shockingly I had never been interested too much in Rings, although Elements was almost my first module purchase ever in this module synthesizer journey through the land of eurorack.
Cheekiness aside, I am happy with the results, and it is a bit bitersweet knowing that we will probably not have any new Mutable Instruments modules due to Émilie Gillet retiring.

So patch notes:

I build on a simple loop, find a sweet spot in the granular landscapes of Beads, run it all through Strymon Magneto. Go from Rings internal synthesis to running a nice square wave oscillator through it, good times.

Percusions via Basimilus Iteritas Alter and Intellijel Plonk."

Elektron Syntakt Ambient piece with Digitakt, Hologram Microcosm and Strymon Nightsky Reverb


video upload by Thoow

"The Syntakt has a lot of potential to go way into ambient territory. Especially in combination with reverb and effects pedals. In this setup I send the right channel of the Syntakt through the Fairfield Circuitry Shallow Water (for analog warmth and tape delay effects), then trough the Hologram Microcosm (in Mosaic mode) and finally through the Strymon Nightsky for some additional delay and reverb. Instant goose pimples ;-)"
