Quasimidi Sirius synth with VintageRack and GlitchScaper apps

video upload by Igor Vasiliev

"Quick demo of Quasimidi Sirius synth patterns processed by VintageRack app, with noisy background generated by GlitchScaper app. Apps works as audio units in AUM host.

More details about these apps: https://motion-soundscape.blogspot.com

These apps are universal for iOS and macOS. They can work on iPhone and iPad as well as Mac/MacBook with M1 chip (and newer).

GlitchScaper is a rhythm machine with six sound generators, each controlled by a two-layer cycle sequencer, designed to easily create glitchy patterns and scapes.

VintageRack is a minimalistic and convenient multi-effect application that contains modules realistically simulating notable retro gear from the early digital age with their natural lo-fi and warm aesthetics."

Which do you want for the ELZ_1 play? [Physical Modelling String Engine vs Shimmer Reverb?]

video upload by SONICWARE

"Physical Modelling String Engine vs Shimmer Reverb

Thanks to your support, the planned production run of 200 units of 'ELZ_1 play' sold out early. Thank you very much!

In response to requests from customers who are interested in purchasing 'ELZ_1 play'. We had negotiated with the factory to manufacture 50 more units.

The additional 50 units will be shipped in November and we have started pre-orders them today.

And also, as a token of our appreciation, we would like to set a stretch goal for when the total number of units sold reaches 250 units.

For the stretch goal, please poll for which feature you think is more appropriate for ELZ_1 play!

Sequential REV2 | Revelations Patch Bank

video upload by MIDERA

"I had access to the Sequential REV2 for 1 month and decided to make a patch bank with it. In 2019 I had a REV2 desktop and made some patches that I really liked, so I decided to finish the bank of patches and sell them. Please visit here for details on how to purchase these patches: https://www.midera-artist.com/synthes...

I chose to not use any external effects for these patches. Everything you hear can be achieved using the REV2 by itself. These patches will install on Bank 1 of your REV2. I do not think it is backwards compatible with the Prophet 08 unfortunately.

I wrote my review of the REV2 here as well:

Ursa Major Space Station SST-206 overview demo ((Worlds first??))

video upload by manmade madman

"This is a demo of the amazing Ursa Major Space Station SST-206, an exact replica of the 3 rack unit Space Station SST-282 from 1978. It was released in back in 2004 with the exact same algorithms, features, and functionality, but with an upgraded 140MHz Motorola DSP as a passion project from Chris Moore at his company named Seven Woods Audio. He also included modern versions of the algorithms, as well as a new Room algorithm that is incredibly realistic.
This demo includes a few sets of drums and then a random saxophone running thru the Ursa Major. I tried to show all the algorithms and 'audition delay patterns' along with knob movements and dialing in craziness.

To my ears, this is exactly what it says it is: a 1:1 Ursa Major Space Station in a modern convenient size with tons of hands-on control."

Vintage Roland Promars Synthesizer

via this auction

"It's in very nice condition for its age with only a few scrapes and marks here and there. It plays very nice but does have a little noise in audio...sounds like it is before the filter but its not terrible. everything does function as it should and has a great sound. This is basically a monophonic Jupiter 4 but has a extra VCO which really makes this thing powerful.

It's one of my favorite Roland synths and does use the same filter found in the Jupiter 8 so it has a very warm organic resonance unlike some of the other Roland models after this era.

This unit is corrosion free, caught this one before the memory backup battery leaked and I modified the circuit to use a Panasonic BR1/2AA instead of the original battery style."

KAWAI TEISCO S-100F | Analog Synthesizer 1979 | Sound Demo (no talking)

video upload by AnalogAudio1

"(c) 2023 by AnalogAudio1

The Kawai (Teisco) S-100F is a great little monophonic analog synth. It only has 1 VCO, but lowpass and highpass filters and some interesting modulation routings! Although it's limited, the basic sound is excellent. It reminds me a bit of the ARP 2600. The VCO has a huge range - very low and very high frequencies are possible. Built like a tank, best quality made in Japan, high quality hardware, easy to repair.

I played the Kawai S-100F with delay effects from Korg SDD-3000 (right channel only). On the left channel you can hear the synth dry."

Microtonal Regen

video upload by Synclavier Digital

Update: video re-uploaded.

"For this tutorial video, our collaborator maestro, Leith Fleming-Smith brings his Lumatone and things get seriously microtonal.

Regen supported MPE out of the gate and had controls, such as Octave Ratio, to vary tuning. Then firmware update 1.04 added Custom Tunings and the ability to load scala files, which massively opened up the possibilities for microtonalists.

Topics Covered:
0:00 Intro
1:22 Detune control
2:40 Octave Ratio
5:52 Custom Tunings
10:45 Scala Files
13:57 MIDI Polyphonic Expression (MPE)

Explore the Possibilities of Tymp Legio: Your Key to Versatile Eurorack Percussion

video upload by Noisegate

"Here we’re looking at Noise Engineering's Tymp Legio, a palette of big digital percussion in just 6hp. The Tymp Legio we would label as the younger cousin to the BIA, is full of drum sounds without a sample in sight! It also has a few clever functions including the ability to pass sound through it and duck your audio through the appropriately names Quack inputs. Is this the best digital 6hp percussion module yet, let’s take a look!"

Korg MS-20 MKI and SQ-10

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

via this auction

"First there was a Frostwave MS-20 filter clone pedal. Then there was the Bubblesound filter and one from Manhattan Analog. Then there was the Korg x 911. And, finally, the search for the MS-20 sound ended with an actual MS-20, with the original, nasty, gnarly, nasal, squelchy and totally distortable filter.

We already had an SQ-10 to use on Metasonix’s Hz/v Thyratron oscillators, so the MS-20 fit right in. Then we got another SQ-10, so two SQ-10s could work on Metasonix oscillators, and filters and effects, and/or the MS-20. LUXURIOUS! And kind of comical since the SQ-10 is a few hundred times larger than an RK-7. But it’s gotten oh so Marie Condo around here in 2023, so this MS-20 needs to move on to the next life with its friend SQ-10.

The MS-20 is North American/Canadian/Taiwanese power. Purchased from Reverb. The SQ-10 is Japanese, purchased from a Modwiggler who purchased it serviced from Japan (from Vintage Standards maybe?). If you’re into vintage synthesizers you surely already have a 100v power converter."First there was a Frostwave MS-20 filter clone pedal.

According to the listing:

"PPG WAVE 2.3 Synthesizer Keyboard - for restoration. Sold AS-IS. I know nothing about these. I did plug it in and it powers on. Sometimes 3 red light came on and after I pushed a few buttons to try to scroll it would only show black blocks on LED screen (see photos) I could never get it to change on LED screen. All the keys spring back up. There are some uneven keys (see photo) It has scratches. The silver plate that holds circuit boards straight was loose so I put some black tape on edge to hold circuit boards. (see last photo) I do not know the history of this keyboard."
