"This is a classical channel vocoder designed as a generic fx unit for the KORG NTS-3.
It uses audio input as a modulator signal to modulate the sound of the built-in up-to-four-voice paraphonic oscillator. You can specify the chord you want to play."

"It is a subtle night, with slight drizzles. The weather is warm, a calm before the storm, it's on its way, It's slow to let you know that it's on its way. You can hope that it goes away, you can cry, you can pray... but inevitably it will come, whispering through the night and waking you in the day. Be still it says... just wait, I'm just passing through, I don't come around often, I'd like to get to know you.
My usual favorite rudiment to play. The Novation Summit midi chained to the Yamaha CP Reface (hidden piano sound, gotta love it!). Enjoy!"

"NEW PLAYFADER FIRMWARE ! Today we are delighted to announce a whole new experience for PlayFader users, with not 1 but 4 new updates to the firmware - available to download now from www.goplayallday.com [link in bio].
Let’s take a look at the features:
👉🏻 1. A completely overhauled quantised engine for live input giving you more options to quantize your CV and Gates in creative ways!
👉🏻 2. You now have the added ability to audition notes when setting up a User Scale Set, meaning you can check the notes you are selecting will work within your song or DJ set immediately without having to second guess.
👉🏻 3. We introduce another FUN FX - SLEW! We know you already have 6 FUN FX to play with (Random, LFO, Bend, Sustain, Roll and Slice) we thought you would love the ability to add Slew to your patterns, creating slide effects between you CV values. The channel (Fader) Selects the Slew time to transition between CV levels.
👉🏻 4. New NOTE-L mode has been added to the MIDI menu which adds monophonic legato play
Oh, and we fixed a few bugs!

"Korg Delta in excellent shape, sounds fantastic ! Great filter !
This one is pretty unique and special because of the 100% hand made Ola wood side panels. They have been made based on the same shape and fixation system, so you can unscrew them if needed.
It looks totally different and makes it totally unique."
"Hello my friends, today we have the task of using all 4 synth parts on the Roland Jupiter-X to create the biggest sound possible starting from an initialized scene and 4 classic synth models: Jupiter-8, Juno-106, JX-8P, and SH-101.
Of course this might not be the biggest synth sound possible on the Jupiter-X considering we could stack 4 Jupiter-X model synths (that sounds like an insane persons idea that I will definitely try next time and will surely be a way bigger sounding combo that what we are doing today but its too late for that now) but it will be more diverse and interesting and show off a lot of the range that this synth has to offer. We're gonna stick to synth sounds today so no RD pianos or legacy samples.

"The Erica Synths Nightverb is a standout reverb effects unit, balancing playability, flexibility, and sound design, even if it sacrifices a bit on size. Much like the Zen Delay, Erica Synths clearly prioritized playability in this design. The Nightverb's controls keep you in the sweet spot, allowing you to explore everything from massive off-earth cathedral reverb to intimate club backroom vibes.
Whether you're performing live or experimenting in the studio, this is a reverb unit that is top of mind when I need a playable effect when performing live"

"The Wing Pinger is not easy to process: it sports two outputs which are... double mono?
Not really, and I will show you why soon in the upcoming tutorial (long in the making, I know).
But that's also why I decided to keep one pedal, and that pedal is the H90, which allows for extensive customization of the inputs, and it's modular in its own way.
I created this new preset for the Eventide H90, called Noise Glue, which is a combination of a 4-head delay + tape saturation to keep everything cohesive, and I think it complements beautifully the sound echoing war chants and drums on the battlefield, juxtaposed to the few plucks of melodic rain here and there.
It is always very hard to share a recording of the Wing Pinger, because the lengthy drones and ear-massaging FM sounds do not translate well as a format on YouTube or as a recording: it really is an instrument to be touched and felt."
"PaSSBot makes complex modulation easy and musically intuitive by turning even lifeless sonic material into animated textures."
See this previous post for a tutorial by CatSynth of the original release.
"PaSSBot is a unique stochastic filter bank plugin. a cloud of filters with complex modulation capabilities driving up to 64 unique parallel instances.
It is also structurally the base of sonicLAB Fundamental, where the latter owes most of its features to the PaSSBot.
PaSSBot filter types are Biquad, StateVariableFilter, Ladder, Resonator and SEM filter implementations. With behaviors of bandpass, Lo + Hipass, and Notch types and up to 64 of them in true stereo !
The user can set values of center frequency, gain and resonance of the each filter, which will be then eloborated with powerful stochastic generators ( 4 independent GENs ) with continuous or discrete probabilistic distributions but also with standard waveforms.
a cloud of filters with organic character..
PaSSBot has a rich time domain modulation scheme at your finger which operates on various parameters.
individual behavior or harmonic relations
You can set each filter parameters individually, but also distribute them in harmonic order, again the harmonic spread ratio can be set by the user or even can be modulated by a GEN.
Be it stochastic complex control-waveforms to interact with or simple touches, this calculated data serving to the filter bank create musical soundscapes instantly.
Tuning scales can be deployed to tune the filter center frequencies.
For independent GEN's for each filter (modulation generators ) with loads of stochastic distribution sources. This makes upto 64 x 4 GENs running in parallel..
Each GEN can modulate a different parameter: Center freq, filter gain, filter bandwidth, harmonic spread ratio and stereo spatialization.
You can tune the filter fequencies to musical scales. PaSSBot can read .scala format scale files.
True two channel behavior for stereo imaging, and each filter position can be modulated on the stereo field.
The filter can run continuously or be triggered manually. In that case, each filter will be applied an independent AR envelope with configurable random duration.
Precision DSP rendering, less than 1milisec. control rate precision and at the same time CPU friendly."
