Another Polymoog Lives!! #Polymoog #synthesizers #synthrestore


video upload by synthpro

"This polymoog came to me all the way from British Columbia for a restore. This unit had not worked since 1991 but she sings now. I will never get tired of the sounds of this synthesizer. This was the synthesizer that got me into synthesizers and electronics.

Off Topic but I have been playing a game I got for Christmas called, 'Tunic' and the soundtrack reminds me a lot of the polymoog in areas."

Tech House w/ nord lead, Prophet-10, TR-8S, Grandmother | Boundless 2025-02-21


video upload by atnr

"A piece created using the ‪@NordKeyboards‬ Nord Lead, ‪@SequentialLLC‬ Prophet-10, ‪@rolandglobal‬ TR-8S, and ‪@MoogSynthesizers‬ Grandmother. It’s a classic tech house track that progresses as the filters are opened and closed.

Except for the Prophet-10, everything is controlled via MIDI from the DAW.

On the Nord Lead, I play harmonies via MIDI while adjusting the filter.

The Prophet-10 is used to change the sound mid-performance, with pitch bend also utilized.

The TR-8S's rhythm is controlled via MIDI and mixed using Param Out. During recording, I control the snare's pitch to create variations.

The Grandmother is triggered via MIDI, with filter adjustments adding dynamics.

The sequence phrases in between are produced by the MOTIF-RACK ES."

SCJS#42 TREPANED DUB


video upload by FL3SHB4CK

"Small Case Jam Sessions #42 - TREPANED DUB

EQ TO TEMPO CHANGE??
OSC 1 of Trepanator square wave is driving this patch, going into the clock input of the NLC 8bit Cipher (data is from diff-rect of Trepanator), BUT OSC 1 is modulated by EQ (top left attenuator knob) so, pushing the EQ feedback alter the tempo of the entire patch: FUN!
More of this later…
Battering Ram: kick and bass
AHH & µGR2: hats (into Mini Drive)
Beads: reverb, noises and formant feedback on resonance peaks"

THE CASIO CTK 1000 IS SO WEIRD!


video upload by Magical Synth Adventure

"1993's Casio CTK-1000 "IXA Sound Source" is a home keyboard with absolutely astounding semi-editable synth patches! Wavestation-like PCM pads? Check! Nonlinear Waveshaping/FM sounds? Check! Deep evolving textures? Check!

It really is an amazing sounding machine, and the sole example of IXA. It's a shame that CASIO never released this as a pro-level synth, but I'm glad we got these sounds in some form :)"

We Need to Talk About PCB Waste… (And How You Can Help)


video upload by Synthux Academy

"I’ve got a love-hate relationship with PCB faceplates. On the one hand, they open up a world of creative possibilities—custom LED cutouts, intricate designs, and a more experimental approach to synth aesthetics. It’s like designing an interactive poster rather than just a control panel. But on the other hand… they come with a hidden cost.
