EUROGiRL is a 4-track (4 TRG 1 CV) Eurorack sequencer module. It supports 16-step sequencing, as well as note (CV), sub-step, step repeat, random, and other functions.
Overview video followed by demos. The following is the description for the overview:
"A slow walkthrough of Parasite dynamics, showing off the quirks and extreme variability.
Very simple patching (sometimes none), and just showing the more unstable end of usage: Out 2, high Feedback, etc.
It is interesting to note that the Parasite Antifilter acts like a capacitor sometimes and stores energy. Many of the sounds it generates have a charging period before they show and then run on their own like an additional source. They'll keep running until the settings are changed, and have to re-charge before they appear again.
I was going to edit this, but we left it complete to show everything, even the dead zones.

What is the Parasite Antifilter?
Well, it started out as a VC parametric equalizer, but it sucked. Really bad. I decided to trash the idea and sent the original prototype to the Great Wizard for them to play with since we had been chatting about it. The subsequent findings were completely the opposite of what I found – not about the filter part though, that still sucked. It turns out the Parasite Antifilter is a ridiculously fun and useful drone source, drum generator (especially kicks, snares, and blocks), distortion and fuzz, absolute sonic wreckage device, coloring mixer, formant generator, and so on. We keep finding more uses for it each time it’s fired up.
Ostensibly, the Parasite Antifilter is a 2nd-order cascaded parametric equalizer. Out1 is from the first stage, Out2 is from the second stage. Both can be used simultaneously for a stereo-esque signal. The Feedback knob controls amount of output fed back to the input, and the Feedback toggle chooses if it’s from Out1 or Out2.
The 'Infest' switches are wholly serendipitous and defy explanation. Just know that they are there for good reason, which is readily apparent when you use them. Infest 1 affects the first stage, Infest 2 the second.
"Welcome to Flight's Famine Fun - IMP Edition!
Having used Famine to turn two sound effect modules into sound sources, it was time to see what new possibilities could be found by using Famine on a source module - the INM IMP.
This video is goes into more detail and exploration to show how much is hidden away inside a module that just takes a little torture and suffering to bring out. Come watch!
As with the others, this is the raw audio, with no processing."
What is Famine? Famine is a voltage-controlled power starvation module, a teasing taste of electronic death – with the ever-present threat of the real thing. Your system will squeal, stutter, fuzz, and shriek, in new ways as you torture it while discovering the sublime joys of Schadenfreude.
Famine is capable of handling 1.5A, enough for an entire busboard of modules.
All/Split: • In the All position, positive and negative rails track together using the All/+V knob and CV input and the -V knob and CV input are ignored. • In the Split position, positive and negative are separated and controlled from their respective knob and CV input.
Crush/Wrack: • In the Crush position, positive and negative mirror each other, i.e., +5V & -5V, +6V & -6V. • In the Wrack position, positive and negative track inversely, i.e., 0v & -10V, +1V & -9V, +8V & -2V, etc.
Starve/Feed: Starve position to starve, Feed position to bypass circuit entirely.
L.E.D.s The LEDs indicate the level of starvation and glow brightest at 0V output.
Notes:
• Most effective on analog systems. Since digital is based on the principle of either on or off, there’s not much to play with there. Systems with bootup periods are particularly annoying. • NO RELAYS, GAUGES, MOTORS, FANS, OR OTHER INDUCTIVE SYSTEMS (see below).
Disclaimer: Famine may destroy your system. Although commonly used, voltage starvation is a largely unstudied technique and the dangers it poses are not well known or understood, but are rumored to range from general malfunction to actual fire and catastrophic failure. Any use of this module is entirely at your own risk.
NOT RECOMMENDED with inductive or electromechanical systems. Inductive kickback has been known to be a danger to circuitry in AC power distribution systems. The currents in Eurorack are highly unlikely to cause damage, but it is a non-zero possibility.
"Another short video, testing out some funk styled patch building, every sound except drums and vocal is from the OBX8, I felt initially on buying this synth it lacked something in the bottom end, but I think it may have been my programming, bass is solid :)
The OBX8 as expected is great at Brass but the ability to do dissonant brass trumpet screams is remarkable for an analog synth!
(please excuse my bad shredding at the end, got kinda carried away with myself) - all good fun!"

""The "Strummer" listens to chords played on your MIDI keyboard and plays them back to your MIDI sound source (Synthesizer or Sampler) just as they would be played from a guitar. Not only will the chord voicings be correct, but the chords can actually be 'Strummed!' With the 'Strummer,' you can even change the speed and direction of your "Strums" just by changing the way you play your MIDI keyboard. Also, "Strummer" has the ability to distinguish the difference between chords and single notes, allowing you to send chords out on one MIDI channel (Distorted Guitar Sound for example) while your single notes are sent out on a different channel (i.e. Solo Sound). Your keyboard may have a great guitar sound, but can you play a great guitar part? Yes. The Oberheim Strummer will transform your keyboard playing into a stunning and convincing performance featuring realistic guitar articulation. Power and MIDI cable not included"

"Was requested by a viewer to see how well the OBX8 would do the typical Deadmau5 style woody pluck poly synth sound. This sound and video will let viewers hear how snappy the envelopes can get on this great machine.
Tiny bit of reverb dialled in for effects, and some compression & limiting on the master channel.
more or less the raw sound you hear in this again."

0:00 Year 2010 - First test of the new E560 featuring music by Carbon111
2:42 Year 2013 - Subtle demo of the E560 in frequency shifter mode
5:24 End
This video happened because I was digging through some old hard drives and found a few things I had lost track of for years!
The first part of this is a video I had posted to YouTube back in 2010, but out of frustration dealing with YT copyright claims and trying to keep my channel commercial free, I deleted it. The main problem came because I used part of a track by my friend James Maier, AKA Carbon111, and he was totally fine with my use (thanks James! :-), but dealing with YouTube check bots at the time wasn't so easy. This was my first test of the new at the time E560 module and it is also my very first eurorack video! Check out James's site for lots of interesting synthesizer info and links where you can buy his music! 👌 http://carbon111.com/
Modules used in part 1:
Synth Tech E560 Deflector Shield
Doepfer A-147 VCLFO and A-174 Voltage Inverter
Malekko 8NU8R
Part two came about because around three years later there was a discussion on the MuffWigger synth forum (now renamed as ModWiggler) about frequency shifters and how most demos tended to be of the more extreme effects they can create but not many show the subtle uses. I was asked about my missing demo from part 1 here and I couldn't find it at the time so I did a new audio only demo and posted it to my Soundcloud page. I just have a free Soundcloud account and my storage space is limited so I occasionally delete old tracks to make room for new ones. Since I decided to repost the original video, I decided to include the later noodles demo as a "bonus track".
Modules used in part 2:
Synth Tech E560 Deflector Shield and E355 Morphing Dual LFO
Thanks for watching, rating, and commenting, I appreciate you all! 🤗"

"Here's Formant - our brand-new analog formant filter! With a joystick to control the dual 12dB bandpass filters, an audio path selector for the 24dB lowpass filter, a master cutoff knob and four CV inputs, you are all set for some serious sound shaping! Excellent for creating vowel-like sounds and when you want to “carve out” specific bands of frequencies. Self-oscillating at full resonance. Dual ins and outs. This filter really speaks for itself!
For more information about this module and our other products, please visit https://www.noiselab.se"
FORMANTIC IS HERE!
Our brand-new analogue filter offers a fresh take on sound shaping and will make an excellent addition to your subtractive synthesis toolset.
With two peak filters (bandpass) and a 24 dB lowpass filter at your disposal, you can carve out specific frequencies to mimic voice-like sounds (vowels) or just turn any bass sound into something gnarly and wicked! Thanks to its joystick and master cutoff knob, you also get a better tactile control over your sound which is great for live performances.
You can even make it sing in tune because all three filters can self-oscillate at full resonance and produce three perfect sine waves, all controllable via external CV. Check out all the details and video below.
Keep on patching!
Preview of the 1979 DSS (Dual Sequential Switch) for Buchla format modular synthesizer systems. Visit https://1979.ws/dss for more info.
The standard configuration has audio I/O jacks on the top and banana I/O jacks on the bottom. Custom configurations with all audio or all banana jacks can be supplied, please send an email with a request after placing your preorder. Custom builds are available on a limited basis.
The DSS is intended as a companion for the Buchla 245/246 sequencers or other "quad" modules in the Buchla world such as the 281 and 292.
The main I/O is bidirectional, meaning that the module works as a 4:1 multiplexer or a 1:4 demultiplexer. Patch up to four signal sources to the four I/O inputs (A-D) and they will be routed to the common output jack (Z). Alternately, patch one signal source to the common input jack (Z) and it will be redistributed to the four outputs (A-D).
Every aspect of the switching schema is exposed on the front panel, and every parameter can be modified with external CV, making this one of the most fully-featured sequential switches available. Each section has its own independent sequence length (from 1 to 4 steps). The Step Change output (SC) generates a trigger whenever the sequence length is changed, telegraphing local local state changes to external modules. Clocked switching can advance forwards, backwards, forwards then backwards (pendulum), or randomly.
Tech Specs Two 4:1 or 1:4 sequential switches for audio or CV Voltage control of all parameters VC stage addressing via pulse or variable CV inputs Variable sequence length (1-4 steps) Variable switching mode (forward, reverse, pendulum, random Extensive pulse I/O for synchronicity with external modules Sync output tracks changes to sequence length

Not sure when this was released. I'm only finding one previous post with The Galaxy Electric featuring one in March of 2020. Some info and a pic for the archives:
Digital oscillator with envelope and VCA/LPG
The Algorithmic Oscillator is a Buchla-format VCO based on Plaits by Mutable Instruments. The successor to the 1979 DAO, the AO has more knobs, more parameters, and more I/O than the DAO plus new features not present on Plaits. With an internal envelope generator and a simulated LPG with adjustable vactrol response, the AO is an ideal standalone voice module for small Buchla systems.
"Welcome to Bad Gear, the show about the world's most hated audio tools. Today we are going to talk about the DSI Tempest Analog Drum Machine.

"Learning and experimenting with VCV Rack 2 (free) on desktop.
There are different modules than in miRack on iPad, and it takes some getting used to, etc...
I ended up pushing the CPU waaaaaay too hard even before feeling 'finished' with the patch, and it crashed VCV Rack when I tried to use the screen recorder and it makes a glitchy, unwatchable screen recording. I called it 'done' and recorded what I could to audio. Lesson learned and I hope to do a live stream with VCV Rack in the near future.
I used an AI Art software called 'MidJourney' to create all of the "Beauty of Decay" style art pieces."
"Ensoniq Fizmo Transwave Digital Synthesizer. A very unique 48-voice poly synth offering highly complex evolving sounds with a super cool 90s retro-look. This unit is in pristine technical condition and beautiful optical condition. All pots, rotaries, switches, audio and midi connections have been tested and are working flawlessly. The synth was also recently serviced, so the synth and keyboard bed were completely disassembled and thoroughly cleaned and sanitised."
"Vintage Prophet 5 rev 3.3. Works perfectly, was restored by Wine Country. Has new key bushings. A little bit of screen print is rubbed off, a few of the keys are starting to yellow. Condition is 9.5 out of 10. Comes with spare original NOS pots, and original NOS chips- 3 types of cem's and ca3280's, original manual and service manual, restoration certificate, and a road case for storage."
"Fully tested and 100% functional; this vintage 80's Moog will add some funky bass and more to your sound! Cosmetically, it is very good exhibiting only minor wear. Seems this synth was well cared for over the decades. Includes power cable."
"Introduced in 2000, the Alesis A6 Andromeda was a real miracle in a music world without modern analog polysynths. All big polyphonic names were no longer in production and only available in the used or vintage market. Some loved the Andromeda, some hated it, most simply didn’t come to know it because of the Alesis name and the lack of music hits featuring this powerful polysynth. The Andromeda can be described equally as a polyphonic instrument and as a polyphonic modular synthesizer. That´s how complex or deep it can be.
The sounds are illustrated with pictures of my own Andromeda. There is no video, because those are old recordings, made long time ago before I started recording videos. The purpose of the recordings was exclusively for personal use, a way to remember sounds I liked. Some recordings may still be useful today in order to get familiar with the sound of the instruments. Some sounds use the internal effects, some use external processing.

"Today we are learning how to make snappy brass sounds using a track Marea (We've Lost Dancing) by @Fred again . . and @The Blessed Madonna. To achieve this we will be using Furthrrrr Generator final output controlled by 2 exponential envelopes, one for the filter and one for the VCA. Additional noise source will create a blow effect of the brass sound processed by Grand Terminal. Watch the video for the full patch description and as always, have fun making music!

"8 inputs and correlating on/off switches let you decide how many signals are a part of the line. Then, smoothly fade from one signal to the next using the knob or an external CV source.
In this video, Alex goes over the features and functions of the modules and provides audio examples of fun patches made with it."
Voice Card Specs: • A single oscillator with saw, triangle and pulse output • Multiple VCAs to blend between different input signals, a main VCA for the envelope and a panning VCA for stereo output • An additional external input that can be mixed in, eg. a noise signal • One envelope generator for the VCA. It can also modulate filter frequency and resonance, also with an inverted signal • A pole mixing multimode filter with 8 filter responses: ◦ 4P LP ◦ 2P LP ◦ 4P HP ◦ 2P HP ◦ 4P BP ◦ 2P BP ◦ 3P AP + 1P LP ◦ 4P N • There are multiple options two switch and blend between different signals and filter responses • PWM, FM and synchronization inputs
