Dave Smith Instruments Pro-2 first impression and walkthrough
video upload by MIDERA
"NOTE: Ugh, well, as you can see the video quality is horrible. I just figured out why - OBS had used a very small resolution. I guess this will just have to do because this was my first impression. Sorry!
I hope you enjoy the video anyway.
No external FX were used."

Nithonat 2 Drum Machine by D16 Group Software (No Talking)
video upload by Elektronick Musick


via D16 Group
Little drum companion from the yesteryear
Characteristic, harsh and metallic sounds that cut through the mix like butter. A whole spectrum of sounds is now at your fingertips – rumbling kicks, barky snares and completely unique, ear-grabbing toms and hi-hats.
An effect chain to bring out what’s best of the sound
The included effect chain will make your sound bigger and fatter straight from the output.
A convenient and inspiring sequencer
A rich set of editing functions and sound articulations along with the easy-of-use interface will fill your head with tons of musical ideas.
Get under the hood
For the first time since its release in the 80s, you can explore what the 606 would have truly been capable of!
The 606 was designed as a companion of the 303 silver box; it may look deceptively simple, but it’s a very versatile unit. It’s found its place in a whole variety of music genres, ranging from the 80s pop, through to modern EDM and experimental."

Moog Sub37/Subsequent 37: Melodic Patches & Patterns Demo
video upload by Anton Anru
"Dreamy Patterns is a collection of 64 Presets + Sequences for Moog Subsequent 37 and Sub 37.
The timbres cover a wide range of tones: mild and aggressive, deep and bright, soft and punchy.
Each preset contains a sequence with Pitch, Velocity, and Modulation lanes. Some patterns are made in Major scale, others - in Minor.
The collection also includes the sequences with odd lengths: 23, 18, etc... They create polymetric/polyrhythmic feel.
🔮 Get the soundset: https://bit.ly/3VsplFJ
The presets are suitable for different genres like Retrowave, Synthwave, Lounge, Downtempo, Chill Out, House, Progressive, Deep, Trance, Cinematic, Breaks, etc.
The pack also includes a folder with all sequences saved separately from the presets. You may use the sequences with any other timbres: choose/make a preset, go to the 'Sequencer' tab, and push 'Load'.
ModWheel is set in all patches, it adds brightness, changes the tone, or increases the length of notes.
Patches' volume levels are set close to each other, you won't get sudden volume spikes or drops while switching the timbres.
You may use the sequences as they are, or take them as a starting point for further editing and tweaking. Try different Rates/Time Divisions, including Triplet and Dots; try changing the length of a sequence from start or/and from end; try shifting the start point; try adding Octaves, try playing with Forward/Backward and Invert modes, or simply change steps' values: Pitch, Modulation, Modulation destination. Subsequent 37 gives nice performance tools, and you can get plenty of variations just with one sequence.
I recommend syncing the synth to some external beat to get a proper impression of the sequences.

"Let's Take a 20 Megaton Surface Burst" - a DB-01 solo
video upload by Richard DeHove
"How many parts can a mono synth play in one pass? Here I think the DB-01 does a good job simulating three or four tracks and yet this is all just one live take, plus vocal samples on top for color. Music-wise there are no edits, no automation, no DAW EQ or any other effects. Everything is exactly as you see it.
The DB-01 runs into the Darkglass B3K, then to the Zen delay, and is then output in stereo to the Boss SL-2 Slicer. You'll notice the DB-01's resonance is at 100% with 50% drive. The Zen delay's input is being overdriven slightly and there is again about 50% drive there as well. Filter is set to highpass.
It's always tempting to start adding extra layers to these pieces, especially drums, but I like the simplicity and 'purity' of a DB-01 on its own. Hopefully that also makes it more useful as a demo of the DB-01 and effects.
Quotes and video are from the 1982 documentary 'The Atomic Cafe', an excellent movie which is a compilation of old newsreels and military training clips set to music and news commentary of the times.

"Touch Bass is part of the Simple Touch family. Touch Bass is a powerhouse polyphonic subtractive synthesizer packed with features! Built-in arpeggiator, Euclidean rhythms, internal modulations, reverb, and more. In this video, I attempt to play three units simultaneously to create a stereo-rhythmic sound experience! Tune in to see if I succeed or if it's just a cacophony of chaos. Spoiler: it's going to be epic either way!"

**THIS VIDEO IS SPONSORED BY PATCHING PANDA** they have funded the creation of this demo video.
"Etna is an advanced triple control analog multimode morphing filter, meticulously designed for precise and dynamic sound shaping. It allows for rapid or smooth transitions between diverse filter settings, known as snapshots.
Each snapshot comprehensively defines all of the filter’s parameters, which can be adjusted either swiftly or gradually. These transitions are controlled through an applied voltage or clock and triggers, with the flexibility to use up to eight distinct stages for creating complex filtering effects in a variety of audio applications.
In addition to its morphing capabilities, Etna incorporates analog controls that enable real-time, expressive modifications to the parameters of each saved snapshot. This enhancement not only enriches the morphing process but also provides a tactile, live experience that adds significant depth and nuance to the audio output, making it a powerful tool for both studio and live performance settings."

"SVC-350 in great condition with original rack ears and front grab/protection rails.
In fantastic condition, the slider caps are cracked but original (not often you see that, most units replaced them for new types which are very slightly different profile) and the only "fault" is the output level slider has lost its clicks between L M H (still switches between the 3 modes so no loss of functionality). I have 2x spare 3-way switches for this unit I will include with the sale - I meant to get round to replacing this but other things took over in life! If you absolutely have to have this changed for the sale I can replace this part for you (I run an electronics company Myrk- Instruments, and over 20 years experience fixing musical equipment)."

"Classic and legendary Prophet VS Synth in great working condition. So many synths and synth designers have taken bits and pieces from this design but nothing beats the original.. nothing sounds as bold and awesome as the original. The sonic possibilities are endless and the filters are classic Sequential. Good solid functional condition and good cosmetics as well. The only thing to note in full disclosure.. The chorus section is a but noisy. No worries tho, if it bothers you, there is a Chorus Bypass buttons right on the top panel.. i always bypassed it and used a Strymon, Eventide or Lexicon for stellar results. It was serviced by the best.. Wine Country a few years ago and still providing years of sonic bliss!"

Chaka Khan I Feel For You ~ Vintage Synthesizer Recreation ~ RetroSound
video upload by RetroSound
"(c)2007-24 by RetroSound
supported by UVI: http://bit.ly/retrosound-uvi
❤️ Support #RetroSound channel: https://retrosound.creator-spring.com
One of my favorite tracks from the 80s.
I Feel For You by Chaka Khan
written and composed by Prince (1979)
produced by Arif Mardin (1984)
featured the Yamaha DX7 II FD, the Oberheim OB-Xa and the Moog Source
This cover song series contains my own recreations of my favourite songs from the last 50 years. The original music from which I take inspiration belong to their respective owners. I recreate tracks only for personal passion and to pay homage to these tracks.
My intention is not to create covers that sound exactly like the original (if you want to hear identical sounds, please listen the original). It's more of an inspiration with my sounds from the old synthesizers from the past and of course the great appreciation for the original performers and producers.
Check out the original songs with the original artists here on YouTube.
Thank you."
Boredbrain Xcelon - Extensive Patch & Demo by @redstripedown
video upload by Boredbrain Music
"Our modular buddy Cory Sterling (aka. Redstripedown) asked if he could make a demo video featuring Xcelon, and of course we said yes!
In this video Cory jams on an intricate musical patch, using Xcelon for hands-on mixing and dynamic effects routing. He then walks through all of Xcelon's primary features as a central audio mixer for eurorack systems, and explores these features further by deconstructing his patch one channel at a time. Toward the end of the demo, Cory goes on to explain all of the expander connections on the back of the module, as well as the three different settings which are configured with jumpers."

Groove Synthesis 3rd Wave dreamy soundscape - A search for tomorrow's sun
video upload by MIDERA
"Yesterday I had made my first impression video and stumbled through the 3rd wave. It was quite interesting the different tones I could pull out of it - and I knew it would be fun to make a soundscape with it. Actually, yesterday I pulled it out TO make a soundscape, but remembered my friend wanted me to do a 'first impression' video first. So I decided to do that video and then today do this video.
I'm glad I did it that way, because I was able to familiarize myself with the unit before I made the soundscape. I even learned things after I messed around with it that helped me today.
Well - you know, I think it sounds really nice. Unfortunately the FX themselves began to clip. I didn't realize that would happen. My apologies for that.
No external FX used."
3rd Wave Sampling Demo - Drum 'n' Bass with Kurt Kurasaki
video upload by Groove Synthesis
"Enjoy this short and sweet demo of an old-school Drum 'n' Bass preset with the legendary Amen break hosted by Groove Synthesis sound designer Kurt Kurasaki. The version 1.8 firmware of the 3rd Wave includes a powerful new enhancement to the sonic capabilities of the synth, giving it the ability to support sampling. With this, we believe we have added the missing piece to its PPG heritage enabling you to achieve the sampled sounds you could get with a PPG Waveterm System."
