Multipoly: Unbox, blather and some custom arp sounds

video upload by Richard DeHove

"I remember my Korg Mono/Poly with great love and nostalgia. My first synth, the machine that taught me about synthesizers, the machine I used in all my early live gigs. Many machines have been bought (and sold) since then trying to recapture some of the weird-arp magic. So the Multipoly was a natural.

Here I can't help but blather about such things and play my first few custom sounds using the Mono/Poly starter template.

Overall I'm extremely happy with it. It's complex, somewhat unfriendly, very menu-divey but has so much going on that the amusement longevity factor and overall usefulness score seem high. Strangely, the only area that has attracted no love from Korg is the arpegiator! Everywhere else there are options galore, but for the arp, almost nothing more than the original Mono/Poly offered. Hopefully in an update we'll get separate arps for each layer - at least.

For those who just want to hear the damn synth without my babbling over the top, there's a no-talk version on Patreon.

Ambient Jam w/ Prophet-10, Music Easel | Winter Fog 2025-01-18

video upload by atnr

"A piece created using the ‪@SequentialLLC‬ Prophet-10, ‪@buchlausa‬ Music Easel, and a drum set.

On the Prophet-10, I perform harmonies and apply reverb using blueSky.

With the Music Easel, I patch and modulate the sound to play a lead line, adding portamento to the lead.

The drum set primarily features cymbals and small bells, which I record into a DAW and process with reverb and filters."

Synth Curious? Fun Times with the Moog Sound Studio

video upload by Circuit 3

"If you know synths and are a bit of an expert this video isn't for you.
But: are you synth curious? Grab a drink and make yourself comfortable. Watch me learn how to use some of my synth equipment. My goal was to use only 'old school' voltages to control the equipment. CV stands for 'control voltage' and gate means a pulse of electricity which can be used to cause a note to start playing or to tell an electronic instrument what the tempo is.

If you liked this ... buy my music!

This video features the Moog Sound Studio which is made up of 3 modules which I demonstrate in the video. If you know nothing about synths you'll hopefully learn how we connect multiple synths and have them play in sync with each other... you'll see how each synth has a job to play much like instruments in a guitar based band: drums, bass and guitar.

Big thanks to YouTuber ‪@Cutflower‬ for his helpful tutorials (great work!) and also to ‪@braintree56‬ for his helpful tutorials. I highly recommend checking out their videos if you want to learn how these synths work and some of the possibilities. Lastly shout out to Caroline and the team at ‪@myvolts1903‬ . You can see some of their cool cables being used in this video."

Italo discoing Poly 61 (with Tauntek MIDI mod)

"Quick 80s inspired tune mainly to demonstrate the MIDI sync capabilities of the Tauntek MIDI kit.
(http://www.tauntek.com/Poly61.htm)
It's a basic MIDI kit that adds MIDI IN notes and Arp Sync control to the Poly 61, as well as MIDI receive channel. These features makes already a big differrence over a stock Poly 61, or over a Poly 61M which though has MIDI implemented only works in OMNI mode and don't let you sync the arp over MIDI.
All synth sound are from the Poly 61, drums and MIDI clock are provided by the Oberheim DX."

"6 voices analog polysynth, serviced and upgraded with a Tauntek Midi interface.

The upgrade lets you play notes over midi and also synchronise the built-in arpeggiator to MIDI clock !

Unit was serviced and is in fully working condition. It did suffer the classic battery leaking but was fixed and a brand new battery was fitted, along with factory presets.

Cosmetic is overall very good, except for the side cheeks that are damaged, and a key that was glued but barely noticeable, see pictures. Otherwise a very clean unit."

"This synth is in perfect working condition. It has a new battery, it also has the updated OS (V1.04). It does NOT have any of the common AN1x issues. LED backlight is good. Display is good. Ribbon controller is good. It has NO cracks, NO dents, NO dings. It has all knobs and keys, and they work. It's been in a studio environment it's entire life. The only issues it has are cosmetic. It has some minor wear marks on the bottom from being on a stand, and 2 permanent marker marks from when my son was a toddler and got into my studio. That's it. This thing functions better than new with the V1.04 OS upgrade."

Moog One Ambient & Soundscapes

video upload by Synth Universe

"Here I play a selection of custom atmospheric sounds on the Moog One, highlighting its strength as a synth for creating ambient music and soundscapes. All the sounds were created by me and range from gentle layered pads, through resonant chimes to dark ambient textures and soundscapes.

The Moog One has three completely independent synth layers which makes it a wonderful synth for creating complex and evolving sounds, yet still retaining its analog character. The modulation options are so comprehensive and when used carefully they allow for deep movement and dynamics.

In this video I am mainly improvising, using the performance controls on Moog One such as the mod wheel, XY pad, expression pedals, velocity and aftertouch to create further movement and variation. Any effects you hear on the sounds in this video are internal to Moog One - mainly delay and reverb. No external processing was applied.

If you are a Moog One owner, all the patches you hear in this video are available to purchase as part of the Synth Universe Moog One Sound Banks Volumes 1 & 2:

DIY eurorack modular synth | MOD1 Clock sync Trigger burst : Arduino based general-purpose module

video upload by HAGIWO

"This module is an open source general-purpose CV/Gate module based on Arduino nano.
It can be applied to various CV/Gate modules by changing the program.
There are some performance limitations, but it uses general-purpose inexpensive components.

Clock sync Trig burst :
When POT3 is turned fully left, it accepts an external clock for F1.
When POT3 is to the right of 9:00, it switches to the internal clock.
The internal clock can be adjusted with POT3.
