Adam B. from Kraft Music plays the Korg Modwave module (with Keystage controller), showing a variety of sounds. Korg Modwave builds on the legacy of the cult-favorite DW-8000 digital wavetable synth from 1985 and transforms it into a modern monster synth. Incredibly deep wavetable oscillators, gorgeous filters, wildly flexible modulation, unmatched polyphony, comprehensive pattern sequencing, and immediately satisfying hands-on control allow Modwave to deliver unique, powerful, and easily customizable sounds and phrases. Modwave also includes two unique tools for creating dynamic motion: Kaoss Physics, which combines an x/y Kaoss pad with modulatable game physics to create a responsive, interactive controller, and Motion Sequencing 2.0, which brings the organic, continuously evolving patterns of the Wavestate's Wave Sequencing 2.0 into the world of motion sequencing to create complex and evolving phrases.

Korg Keystage is the ultimate MIDI keyboard solution for producers and stage performers, putting unparalleled integration and control at your fingertips. Featuring a keybed with outstanding touch response, Polyphonic/Channel Aftertouch and MPE (MIDI Polyphonic Expression) compatibility, Keystage offers hands-on control and instant visual feedback through its parameter-dedicated OLED screens.

Get more for your money with an exclusive Korg Modwave wavetable synthesizer bundle from Kraft Music. These package deals include the accessories you'll need to get the most out of your new synth, all for one low price. If you have any questions, please contact us.

Sequential Prophet 10 REV4 and Rhodes Piano | ambient improvisation

video upload by MIDERA

"My family and I went on vacation this week and had a great time. Some things came up at work and frustratingly, I feel I wasn't entirely as present as I'd have liked to have been. Kind of ruined a lot of things for me, but, despite that we had fun.

My oldest daughter, as usual, wanted a stuffy. We went to a store and she decided she wanted to wait to get something at a different place (because she usually liked the stuffed animals there. So later that day we drove down and - to her dismay - the new stuffed animals there were for little kids. We asked how she could tell, but she said she could. She did not want them. But we didn't have time to go back to the other place (since this was a restaurant and we were going to be eating dinner and the other place would be closed). I drove back up afterwards, looking for any place that might sell something similar, but nowhere did. The next day we knew a snow storm was coming in, a huge one. So she was very sad that we wouldn't be able to go back - but I was proud of her for two reasons: 1) She was able to hold off getting something now for the hopes of something better. 2) She didn't just grab something at the second place, because she knew she didn't want those. And although she cried and was very sad, she did not get something there. I was proud of her for that.

The next morning, we decided to go out in the storm and we did end up getting that stuffy for her. I got her something extra too because I was proud of her for waiting.

As for this track - well, I'm trying to see - do I really need that SX-240? Just because it's pretty? Basically, I have found the Prophet 10 actually does sound almost identical to the SX-240. As cool/nice as it is, I can't just keep all this stuff. There's just too much stuff here and I can make the same or better stuff without some of these synths in my studio.

Yamaha GX1 w/ Speakers, Programmers & MIDI+

via this VEMIA listing

Click the auction link on top when you get there for additional listings.

VEMIA is Peter Forrest's auction house. He is the author of The A-Z of Analogue Synthesizer Books.

"A GX1 is an iconic instrument in any condition, but this one has had the benefit of Colin (Sequentix) Fraser's close attentions over many years. It was bought by Richard James [Aphex Twin] at VEMIA many years ago from Mickie Most's studio. It spent some years in his studio, until it was transported to Colin and eventually to his studio in Berlin, with the principal aim of getting it 100% working again and installing MIDI.

It is complete, with the main console, bench, pedals, two massive speakers, two programmers, and all cabling.

Working order: after some painstaking work at the Sequentix studio it is in full working order as envisaged by Yamaha all those years ago. The two original programmers attach to the Tone Board (patch CV controller) for the Solo keyboard. That board connects on an internal loop to the other manuals, so the programmers can be assigned to any manual for patch editing.

Under the surface there has been an incredible amount of work from Colin: he is in the process of producing a preliminary brochure for his MIDI retrofit, which makes fascinating reading and shows the depth of his exploration of the GX1's architecture - and his huge ability to problem-solve and create new possibilities as well. This brochure would of course be included with the GX1, along with all other literature available. It can also be emailed to prospective buyers on request via Peter Forrest.

At present the polyphonic manuals have full MIDI control. The Solo and Pedal manuals have external CV input Colin has been driving from Cirklon CV outputs. The Rhythm machine has external trigger inputs added, and they are being controlled by a Cirklon D-mux drum trigger module.

Extras: there are a lot of further permutations that could be arranged direct with Colin after the auction. This would depend on the new owner's wishes. For instance one person might want the GX1 as original as possible, and another might want bells and whistles - Colin has designed and prototyped a programmer for the extended sound capabilities he has envisaged, and if required, could extend the MIDI capabilities to the bass pedals.

Cosmetic condition: please see the photos. It is generally in gorgeous condition. The louvred flap on top of the keyboard seems to have some paint damage on the two inner sections, but that looks simple to remove to respray if necessary.

Transport: this is not as daunting as you might imagine. Colin has devised an excellent system for moving it, so that either transporting it by road or crating it for air or sea shipment will be well practicable and safe.

Extras: if the new owner is tempted by Colin's possible add-ons, such as his improved additional Sequentix GX1 Programmer, MIDI bass pedals, or other add-ons, these would be negotiated separately directly with him after the main auction payment."

Digitone II Easy Guide: Polymetric & Odd-Time Compositions

video upload by EZBOT

"Today I decided to push my limits—and my gear—by diving into the Digitone 2's arrange mode using the challenging yet inspiring time signature of 7/8. Honestly, it felt like a creative stress test, pushing the workflow to the edge to see what hidden gems might emerge. Will the complexity of odd rhythms, short patterns, and the arranger spark fresh ideas, or just lead to musical chaos? Either way, I'm excited to explore the possibilities!"

A Track With: Collide 4 - Joranalogue and Hainbach's Test Equipment Module

"The ‪@joranalogue‬ / ‪@Hainbach‬ collaboration module - Collide 4 has been out for a little while, Hainbach is building a new live rig based on four of them as they encompass some of his beloved and enormous test equipment gear, but in a way more practical 20HP format.

In this video, our resident modular artist ‪@matthsmatthsmatths‬ uses Collide 4 as the sole sound source and puts together a piece using just that plus some additional processing. Using both the Filter and the Oscillator plus the 8 separate outputs, there's a lot of tonal variation."

via this Reverb listing

"This unit is not only aesthetically pleasing on the eyes, but also sounding on the ears. While it is not perfect (has very few marks on the wood) it still is in very good shape. I have tested the unit (first time using one of these) using headphones, and it appears to work flawlessly with the exception

Volume appears to be lower until chorus is turned on then it’s loud (possibly another fader that needs to be turned up)
Key transpose button does not always stay on when selected, as if it doesn’t engage with every press (Possible that I am doing something wrong)
The unit is old, and the original owner never had a cap job done to it, or any work.

It does come with the wooden case that was custom built for it by the owner, and also some cables/ extras. I chose to leave the original players patch notes on the front. This unit was purchased with the intent of selling, and as of this posting I have only had it in my possession for a day."

Korg MS-20 Vintage Analog Synthesizer SN 143465 w/ Original Case

"For sale here is my vintage 1970s Korg MS-20 that I bought it from the original owner in Japan. It's in excellent condition (as like-new as it can be, especially given its age). It is not only in excellent cosmetic condition, but perfect working condition as well. I've had no restoration work done on it and it comes exactly as it was released in 70s Japan.

It's a Mark 1 version of the synth with the original Korg 35 filter and it ships with the original hard shell suitcase that is very cool and very hard to find outside Japan. The case itself is in weirdly clean condition inside and out, with very few smudges or marks on the leather."

Roland Juno 106 and Roland JX3P Demo

video upload by Suspect Media

"It's been raining for the past few days, so I felt like switching things up and put together this simple, super basic, unstructured, and slow demo of the Roland Juno-106 and JX-3P. While they share similarities, each has a distinct tone. Both are awesome synthesizers.

The Juno is a bit brighter, and with the chorus on, it’s like flying through clouds. The JX has a more serious, muffled tone, which makes it great for horror soundtracks. The filter and LFO on the Juno are just insane—I get lost in the video when playing with them. The JX-3P’s LFO is pretty slow, and its filter is on the softer side. I added DCO-2 for more bite, but it has a tone I really like.

For this demo, since the Juno only has one DCO (though it has an unbeatable sub), I decided to use DCO-1 on the JX—except for one moment when I was tripping out with the filter.

I'm running both synths straight into the interface.

Learning The Multi/Poly: Filters Part I

There used to be hundreds of private videos in the queue, but most of them have been published now. The description of this video suggests we had just gotten the second HP 241A oscillator, so this might be the first test:

The newly-acquired second Hewlett-Packard 241A glitches a bit—sometimes a button works, sometimes not—but it seems to be getting better with some use. Here’s a simple patch with a sine wave from one HP 3310A function generator affecting the triangle of the other 3310A. Both HP 241A oscillators are hard-panned in the Fostex 2016, with delay from the Ibanez DD700. Plus some Concert Hall reverb from the Lexicon PCM 70."

Bad Gear - Wavestation

video upload by AudioPilz

"Welcome to Bad Gear, the show about the world’s most-hated audio tools. Instruments featured on this show usually come with at least one of the following three characteristics: corny sounds that didn’t age so well, a super nerdy concept people who actually have a life wouldn’t even try to comprehend and an impenetrable UI gatekeeping the sonic goodness.

Today we are going to talk about Korg’s iconic Wavestations. These early 90s wave sequencing synths are undisputed top performers in each of the aforementioned categories and while the standard versions already require a certain willingness to suffer I - a trained professional - upped the difficulty level a bit and opted for the Dark Souls-like SR edition. Don’t try this at home or at all!

MFX Modulations - Ensembles Ensemble & Multi Phaser Plugins

video upload by ALM TV

"‘MFX Modulations’ is a pair of modulation plugins, the ‘Multi Phaser’ and ‘Ensembles Ensemble’ chorus effect both ported from our popular multi effect MFX module and pedal as plugins for use in your favourite DAW.

Both plugins use enhanced DSP code from the MFX hardware with a clean, simple and expanded user interface.

The ‘Multi Phaser’ offers subtle phase shifting for timbral changes, motion, and doubled sounds, with control over notch filters and modulation speed producing various classic phasing and flanging effects. The ‘Ensembles Ensemble’ is a diverse collection of chorus and ensemble effects based on circuits from the 70s and 80s including a built in digital pitch shifter taking the effect beyond a traditional chorus.

In this video we take a quick look at the Multi Phaser and Ensembles Ensemble processing our Motto Akemie FM Drum Plugin and Ableton's 'Analog' synthesizer respectively.

‘MFX Modulations’ is available for purchase now for macOS and Windows. Purchase to get emailed a unique download link.

#404day Roland SP-404MKII | Awakening 2025-04-04 by atnr

video upload by atnr

"A piece created using the ‪@rolandglobal‬ SP-404MKII, ‪@SequentialLLC‬ Prophet-10, and ‪@MoogSynthesizers‬ Grandmother. Swirling synth lines, guitar, and Kasane Teto’s chorus resonate within the beat.

The rhythm is triggered by controlling the SP-404MKII via MIDI from a DAW. SBF is assigned as the SP-404’s master effect, and the output is routed through the ‪@KORG_INC‬ NTS-3, which provides a looper effect.

The Prophet-10 plays a repeating harmony, with its filter effect added later in the DAW.

On the Grandmother, I perform the bassline.

The guitar is recorded through a SANSAMP BASS DRIVER, then distorted in Ableton Live using overdrive.

Thank you for watching and happy 404day!"
