The Dual Atari Punk Console - crunchy lo-fi sounds with a feline touch

video upload by CatSynth TV

"We have a little fun (ok, a lot of fun) with our feline-themed Dual Atari Punk Console module from Tear Apart Tapes. In addition the cat face with LED eyes, it includes two independent APC circuits, each with their own 556 timer and CV inputs for frequency and pulse width. We can also cross-modulate the two APCs for some crunchy chaotic chip-tune madness.

To find out more about the Dual APC and other modules from Tear Apart Tapes, please visit https://www.etsy.com/shop/TearApartTapes

The Atari Punk Console is a simple synthesizer circuit based on two 555 timer ICs (or one 556 dual timer IC). The circuit features an astable square wave oscillator driving a monostable oscillator that creates a single (square) pulse. There are two controls, one for the frequency of the oscillator and one for the width of the pulse.

4/16/25 (transpose) ARP 1623 & 1613 + Roland System 100m + Alesis MIDIVERB II + Paia 6740

video upload by Cfpp0

"4/16/25 (transpose) ARP 1623 & 1613 + Roland System 100m + Alesis MIDIVERB II + Paia 6740 + ALM Pamela’s New Workout

Well, I’ve been having too much fun with the ARP 1623 sequencer, so we decided not to sell it after all. We were lucky and got it during the pandemic from an eBay auction with no reserve and no lurking whales, and we know we won’t be that lucky again. In this video the 1623 sequence is transposed by a slower sequence on the ARP 1613. The ALM Pamela’s New Workout clocks the ARP 1623 sequencer, which is in sequential 8/2 mode. The 1623’s Position 1 output drives the 1613, which is also in 8/2 sequential mode, but with a three step sequence (steps 4-8 are set to gate bus 3). The 1613 quantized output A is mixed with the 1623’s quantized output B in the Roland 130 mixer, then that controls the pitch of one of the Roland 110 VCOs. The 1623’s quantized A controls the other 110 VCO’s pitch. The 150 LFO and the 140 LFO are modulating the two 110 VCFs. Both VCAs run through the Lower West Side Studios M830 Signal Distribution System to the Mackie Onyx 1640 mixer. The Alesis MIDIVERB II is on an aux send and the stereo output returns to two channels on the Mackie, hard-panned, with onboard eq to brighten it up. The Paia 6740 spring reverb is panned hard left."

Learning the multi/poly: Sync and Cross Mod

video upload by Alec Sea

"Join me on my quest to learn the new Korg Multi/Poly! In this video, I'm demonstrating the sync and cross mod capabilities. I demonstrate how to program a sync sweep as well as how to use different modulation sources (LFO, envelope, Kaoss physics) with sync. I show the basics of cross mod and how modulating oscillator pitch affects the sound. I also demonstrate how combining the two can create some interesting sounds!

00:00 Setting up sync and sync sweep
01:52 Sync: assigning velocity to modulate pitch envelope
02:34 Sync: modulating osc tuning with an LFO
04:32 Sync: modulation with Kaoss physics
05:28 Setting up X-Mod
06:07 X-Mod: modulating osc pitch with an envelope
06:51 X-Mod: modulating osc tuning with an LFO

Arturia DrumBrute Impact 64 Patterns. Broken Grooves Demo

video upload by Anton Anru

"Arturia DrumBrute Impact – Broken Grooves is a collection of 64 percussion patterns suitable for many genres: IDM, trip-hop, synthwave, retrowave, dubstep, breaks, breakbeat, drum’n’bass, lounge, downtempo, and more.
🎼 Each sequence contains 64 steps and uses all drum instruments, with a few exceptions.
The patterns are meticulously crafted: Accents, Color Steps, and Step Rollers are all carefully programmed.

📦 Get these patterns: https://antonanru.sellfy.store/p/impa...

🥁 The patterns are self-sufficient by default, but I recommend interacting with the drum machine for a more interesting and expressive live performance: use Mute and Solo to build your arrangement, Roller for fills, and adjust instrument parameters — especially Decay. The combination of long and short hits always has a strong impact on the groove.

🕹 You can also bring more variation by using Swing and Random, either globally or per instrument.
⚙️ The collection covers a wide BPM range: 90–180. You can set BPM manually in Internal Clock mode or sync to any external source and its tempo.

💡 The soundset includes only patterns — no sounds/presets/timbre settings.

I added synth parts to the demos to put the drums into a musical context. These synth parts are not included in the soundset.

‼️ Not compatible with the original/first Drumbrute ‼️

"very short video to demo the trigger input mod added to the Boss DR-110.
It enables the drum machine to be played with external gear. Any positive pulse trigger from 1v to 20v would do the trick, you can even trig the sounds manually with a AA battery if you like !"

via this eBay listing

"Portable programmable analog drum machine from the early 80s.

Unit was modded to add trigger inputs so that now you can sequence the 6 sounds and accent with external gear. It uses optocouplers so any positive voltage pulse would trigger the sounds (v-trigger for instance). You could even trig the sound manually with a battery cell !

Unit is in fully working order. it comes with its original carrying case.
It runs on batteries or power adpater (not included). If you want to run it on power supply you'd need to get the boss PSA-120 power supply, other power adapters brings background noises.'

Introducing Fauve - VST3/AU/AAX - flawed audio reconstructor by K-Devices

video upload by kdevices

Press release follows:



Arvieux, France - April 17 2025. K-Devices, developer of creative music tools, has released Fauve, a new audio effect, as VST3, AAX and Audio Unit plugin for MacOS and Windows.

Fauve is an audio processor that collects sonic fragments and replays them — not always faithfully. It forgets, distorts, and glitches into new meanings; like the hallucination of a broken machine.

By continuously recording incoming audio, Fauve analyzes and breaks sound into small units called “collections.” When playing them back, it sometimes fails, opening space for the user to edit and shape the material according to their own sonic vision.

Fauve can be a harsh distortion, a gentle shadow, a paroxysmal dance between reality and dream, and much more. It can slightly scramble your sound, completely strip it of its original meaning, or introduce subtle, almost imperceptible variations to make it richer, yet always organic.

Fauve disrupts, but never destroys.

Fauve is a totem/series plugin, and like all totems, it follows its own logic. Timing in Fauve doesn’t rely on beats or note values — it’s driven by the material itself. Every operation is triggered by zero crossings, making the outcome deeply dependent on the source. Same settings, radically different results.

== Totem/ Series ==
Fauve is part of the totem/ series by K-Devices: unconventional audio effects coming in a compact format, easy to use, at a lower, convenient price.
== Requirements ==
Available as VST3, AAX and Audio Unit plugin
any 64bits compatible DAW
MacOS and Windows
== Availability, price, and deals ==

launch price: 24 EUR (until May 18)
regular price: 49 EUR (after May 18)

Acustica Audio - Alice-9 (AL9) is a next-generation sample-based synthesizer in the digital domain.
video upload by 23dB Productions

ALICE: https://www.acustica-audio.com/shop/p...



Alice-9 (AL9) is a next-generation sample-based synthesizer in the digital domain, part of the Marea virtual instrument series, and powered by the innovative MUST (Modular Unified Synthesis Technology). Early testers have described it as an instrument with a deeply organic and varied sound palette — evocative of iconic synthesizers from the 1990s and early 2000s. AL9 redefines what a sample-based synth can be, merging analog realism, playable feel, and modern digital power into a single instrument. Available in VST3, AU, and AAX formats, ensuring integration with all major DAWs.
Use code: ALICESPECIAL at checkout for 41% off until August 31, 2025!

The first users compared AL9 to walking into a music store in the 1990s, hearing a synth that delivers something new and inspiring with each preset. That rare sensation of immediacy, depth, and musicality — the feeling of a “real instrument” — is the essence of AL9.

Made to Inspire
The architecture of AL9 goes far beyond sample playback or wavetable synthesis. Its sound engine is built around SCO (Sample-Controlled Oscillator), a high-resolution resampling system capable of reproducing natural analog behaviors such as frequency drift and evolving dynamics. Unlike typical static samplers or rigid waveforms, AL9’s oscillators breathe and shift like their analog ancestors.

This realism is further enhanced by the proprietary Superstereo system for natural stereo placement , the Age control that adds subtle imperfections, emulating the warmth of aged hardware and Integrated multiband dynamics processor inspired by the popular OTT compression paradigm, delivering musical glue and energetic punch.

Whether you're chasing nostalgia or forging new paths in sound design, AL9 provides an inspiring playground that rewards musicianship and creativity.

Beyond Emulation
The idea for THING originated during the development of Thing (TH8 – TH5) — an emulation of a classic 1980s DCO synth. During that process, a question arose: what if, instead of replicating digital waveforms, we could capture and reproduce the actual behavior of an analog VCO? What if we could push timbral diversity beyond the limitations of traditional synthesis methods?
