Live eurorack improvisation with Constellation - RYK Algo - Westlich Performer - Ericasynth LXR Drum
video upload by Flat Round Modular Music
'A Modular improvisation , maybe Electronic Music, with :
Acid Rain Constellation - A powerful drum sequencer based on Euclidean algorithms, eight voices, for infinite rhythm sequences. Very live oriented.
RYK Algo: a digital four operators FM module, eight algorithms , for harsh to smooth melodies. And you can easily use it as a simple four voice module, ideal for chords. Wave folding and shaping inside. Very versatile.
Westlich Performer: Eight tracks CV/ gates with interesting CV modulation sequences, euclidean mode. My choice if I would have only one sequencer. And midi capacities too.
LXR Drum : Digital, yes, but a good way to learn the basics of drum sound synthesis with subtractive and FM synthesis. It can to everything if you need percussion acoustic of digital drums. Seven voices too.
This setup can do almost every style of music.
Have a look."

VERMONA BASS|DRUM modular session #1: Initial rhythm
video upload by vermonagear
VERMONA BASSDRUM modular sessions
"We created a rhythm patch with BASS|DRUM as the sole sound source. We start with a simple four-to-the-floor beat using our probability-based randomRHYTHM as the trigger source.
To make the rhythm more complex and musical, we add modulations from fourMULATOR and fourMative CONTOURS. We didn’t use any external effects. You’ll hear the pure sound of BASS|DRUM!
Enjoy the patch and let us know if you have any questions."

"This is as good an example as you are likely to find of the classic Polymoog Keyboard, serial number 1581 - i.e. the Polymoog Synthesizer before Moog introduced the preset version and called that the Keyboard. Seriously overhauled by Dani at Hideaway in March 2023, with a new switch-mode power supply (Artesyn NFS40-7610 as recommended), and thorough service of the whole machine, including replacing all socketed CMOS MUX ICs, LEDs and CD4007 transistor arrays, replacing divider ICs where needed, etc. etc. Total cost around £1000. The Polymoog then sat here for a year, as there were other Polymoogs in the 2023 auctions. We fired it up in March 2024, and after re-seating Polycom cards and replacing one which had developed a noticeable tonal difference - and reseating a ribbon cable - everything worked exactly as it should. You should be aware that Polymoogs are notorious for cables and cards needing re-seating after moving, so expect to have to do that after a courier journey. It's also important if possible to have two people lifting it, because if it's only one, it's more likely for the chassis to flex a little and cause bad connections.
It was listed in the April 2024 auction, and was won by an overseas bidder. We palletised it, and then ... the buyer found out he'd lost his job, and couldn't pay. So it's sat for six months, beautifully cocooned in packing, shock-protected on its pallet, ready to try again. Cosmetically it has some tape on one bottom edge, and the fablon inlay is missing from the tops of the end cheeks - no loss, really. The 0 button is worn. The keyboard has some slight uneven-ness to the eye but plays beautifully. Dani points out that the preset buttons are only the start to the process of finding excellent sounds - and with the huge amount of control and the massively varied outputs, the Polymoog is wonderful for that. It is simply a synth unlike any other. We had a special pallet made (with good shock protection): 60GBP."

"This original Jupiter-6 was sold in the April auction, but the buyer got into financial difficulties and here it is, back at VEMIA for a second bite of the cherry. (It actually never left the building.) It's a great sounding synth and iconic, too, as the joint first synth to feature MIDI.
As an added bonus, this example, serial number 260387, comes from Orbital with signed provenance. The one break with tradition is that the end cheeks have been replaced with wooden ones. Very good overall condition for something of this age. One of the little illuminated switches (for the LPF) is partly broken but still works fine. UK/Euro voltage - you'll just need an IEC lead for your country. Packing 18GBP."

"The drum synth that inspired the Vermona DRM series!
The MAM ADX-1 are rarely seen on the market and are hard to come by. Sadly, I need to part with mine.
It is fully functional and in great shape for its age. All channels and knobs function as intended. With over 50 knobs for sound shaping and fantastic modulation capabilities, it’s easy to see why this analog drum synth from the 90s is so thought after.
Listed as good because the volume knob is not the factory knob (see pictures to see the differences, this is the knob in the fully counter clockwise position) and the AC PSU is aftermarket. The PSU uses a dovetail adapter as the barrel is prone to fall out without it."

Bad Gear - Move (to Trash???)
video upload by AudioPilz
"Welcome to Bad Gear, the show about the world’s most-hated audio tools. For me, an Ableton Live user since version 2, Ableton can’t do no wrong - not that their products are so great but my deep-fried meme video brain has just become too used to hand-drawing midi notes in an Excel style grid while clipping the master and conjuring CPU peaks with a janky Max4Live patch.
Today we are going to talk about Ableton Move. While previous Bad Gear-worthy Ableton hardware didn’t really tickle my fancy, this brand-new 2022 ableton move leak incarnate, unholy lovechild of the iOS app ableton note and ableton Push 3 sawed in half and “Mom, can we have Novation Circuit - there is novation Circuit tracks at home” hipster toy and groovebox with akai MPC pads was an instabuy for me.

Schlappi Engineering Introduces BTFLD
BTFLD Overview video upload by SCHLAPPI ENGINEERING
"The BTFLD (pronounced Bit Fold) can be used as a unique wavefolder or a hands on logic module for generating rhythms from LFOs or envelopes."
Hello BTFLD - 4-Bit audio / cv mangler - Schlappi Engineering
video upload by Stazma
'Today I'll show you some stuff with the new module by Schlappi Engineering, the BTFLD! It's the new member of the 4-Bit logic family by Schlappi Engineering but this one is the most audio oriented as it's main use are wavefolding, fuzz and distortion. It's small but hell it sounds BIG. It can also make weird things to CV and gates, and even be used to convert any signal into 4-Bit so you can use it to modulate / feed your other 4-Bit modules (Nibbler / BTMX)."
BTFLD (Bit Fold) is a distortion, wavefolder, and four bit asynchronous analog to digital converter. The folding output at audio rate provides a hard sync like timbre in a unique sawtooth wavefolder circuit.
The stepped output is a type of bit crushed effect and the square wave outputs provide different frequency multiplications or distortions.
Rhythms can also be generated by putting envelopes or LFOs into the input and using the bit outputs as gates.
It can also be paired with the rest of our four bit binary system (Nibbler, BTMX) for experiments in four bit computing and unusual logic based patching.
Features
6 related outputs
Unique wavefolding circuit
Switched range for bipolar audio signals or unipolar modulation signals
Acts as distortion/wavefolder or rhythm generator depending on input
4 bit binary output interfaces with other logic modules
LED indication for every input and output

Erica Synths LXR-02 - 64 Brand New Drum Kits
video upload by Sonic Freaks
"We proudly present brand new 64 drum kits for the Erica Synth LXR-02 and LXR Drum module. You can get the drumkits here: https://www.sonicfreaks.com/shop/LXR_...
These kits are specially designed for use in modern dance music such as Techno, Electro, Hip Hop, IDM, Minimal etc. The kits are designed in such a way that the kick, snare, clap etc. are always in the same place. This way you can easily try out kits with the same drum pattern without having to adjust them.
Most kits also use the built-in FX to give them even more punch and/or grit but can easily be turned off or adjusted to taste. We have designed the widest possible palette of sounds that are actually usable. So we don't have crazy FX sounds that you will never use. In total this bundle contains 384 separate drum & percussion sounds. We hope you enjoy them."
