Oberheim TEO-5 Synth Jam | Percussive FM Arp & Ambient Textures


video upload by Sidetrack Walker

"A pure synth journey with the Oberheim TEO-5 – no talking, no overlays, just evolving textures and raw sonic movement.

This live synthesizer jam explores the rhythmic and textural possibilities of through-zero FM, snappy envelopes, and sample & hold (S&H) modulation. Starting with a tight percussive arpeggiator patch, the track moves into ambient territory midway, using the TEO-5’s built-in BBD delay with endless feedback and rich stereo reverb before returning to its rhythmic roots.

Whether you’re here for synth inspiration, immersive listening, or just want to experience the TEO-5 in action, this one’s for you.

🎧 Headphones recommended!

PS: Apologies for the less-than-ideal lighting — let’s call them lo-fi vibes by accident. The jam deserved to be shared regardless. πŸ˜‰

πŸ” Key patch features (for the synth community):
• Through-zero FM
• Per-step S&H mod oscillator tuning
• Percussive envelope settings
• Stereo voice spread
• BBD delay in feedback loop
• Internal reverb for lush ambience

Thanks for listening!"

Oberheim TEO-5 Bass Tip | Cancel Out Your Low End for Clean Pads!


video upload by Sidetrack Walker

"Unlock a simple phase cancellation trick on the Oberheim TEO-5 to control the low end (bass region) of your patches. In this quick, voice-over tutorial, I use a lush FM pad to demonstrate how combining triangle & square waveforms thins out the bass. Use this on pads to prevent mud, or avoid it when you want a solid low-end for bass lines.

🎧 Use headphones to hear the difference.

What you’ll see & hear:
• Phase cancellation demo on a TEO-5 FM pad
• Waveform switching to show low-end attenuation
• Why this trick helps pads sit cleanly in the mix
• Why you should avoid it for bass patches
• No external FX—just the TEO-5’s raw sound with mild limiting

Whether you’re into sound design, mixing tips, or simply love the TEO-5’s character, this quick tip will add a new tool to your synthesis workflow."

Glitchy Lofi Beats w/ Rhodes MK2, Digitakt, Prophet-10 | Humid 2025-06-12 by atnr


video upload by atnr

"A track built with the Rhodes MK2, ‪@WeAreElektron‬ Digitakt, and ‪@SequentialLLC‬ Prophet-10—a glitchy lo-fi beat where electric-piano chords, synth lines, and chopped rhythms interlock.

Rhodes MK2: Runs through a CE-5 chorus, then the ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ GENERATION LOSS MK II for tape coloration, giving the sound a slightly wobbly feel.

Prophet-10: Plays a simple phrase with reverb from a ‪@strymon‬ blueSky.

Digitone: (using sliced drum hits) reconstructs the rhythm, while the ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ MOOD MK II adds reverb, pitch-shifts, and micro-loop glitches."

PlayFader PlayMates - Digitakt - Amen Jungle Breaks mash up Pt1


video upload by Play All Day

https://goplayallday.com/

"PlayFader might just be the best jungle breaks mash-up sequencer ever made!
It’s definitely starting to prove itself as powerful and expressive side-car sequencer to @weareelektron devices!

At least that’s what @djrbrunstein thinks and we’re inclined to agree 😎
He’s a wizard on the #digitakt and totally gets inside the machine with PlayFader, creating a fully expressive and powerful junglist-massive playground for live performance.

Now we can’t help but get excited about what this could do with other Elektron devices, especially an #octatrack!!! Any octatrack or Elektron users out there want to show us what they can do with a PlayFader? We’d love to hear from you ✌️

Patch notes:
Playfader controls the first channel of Digitakt in slice mode, with an amen loaded. Moving the fader enables us to play different slices of the break, and the second channel plays an 808 kick as a bassline, the fader controlling the pitch. A different bassline, and different break pattern are recorded into each buffer and we can switch between them. Finally, we mute the right channel and play a different sample on the digitakt to end.

The next video instalment of this series will show you what you can do in this scenario when you start using the FUN FX like Roll & Random! This is when things get really dynamic and powerful 🀘"

Moog Mariana 50 Dynamic Presets. No Talking Sound Demo


video upload by Anton Anru

"Sequentizer is a collection of 50 patches for the Moog Mariana VST synthesizer, including 21 basses, 22 leads, and 7 textures.
🎼 This soundset is dedicated to rhythmical timbres.
Moog Mariana features dual-layer architecture, six LFOs, and four random generators. By combining different modulation waveforms and speeds, it's possible to create rich, evolving, and rhythmically driven sounds.
Simply hold down a key or MIDI note — and the pattern plays itself.

πŸ“¦ Get these presets: https://antonanru.sellfy.store/p/mari...

πŸ₯ That’s the concept behind the name Sequentizer: while Mariana doesn’t include an internal sequencer, these patches are programmed to simulate complex sequences and rhythmic patterns through modulation alone.

πŸ’Ž The soundset explores a wide tonal spectrum: warm, deep, soft, clean, punchy, dark, bright, aggressive, distorted, detuned and others.
🎚 The ModWheel brings additional expressiveness — brightening the tone, introducing detune, or expanding the stereo field depending on the patch.

🧿 These presets are versatile and suited for a broad range of genres: ambient, electronica, cinematic, retrowave, synthwave, darkwave, IDM, trip-hop, lounge, downtempo, pop, chill out, new age, trance, deep, progressive, techno, breaks, jungle, drum and bass, dub, and more.

πŸ’‘ Make sure you’re using the latest version of the plugin to ensure compatibility.
To install the presets:
Open the preset browser pop-up menu (top center of the plugin).
Click “Open Presets Folder.”
Move the downloaded presets into this folder.
Restart the plugin — the new patches will appear under the User category."

Rare Triadex Muse Digital Synthesizer with Matching External Speaker

Video at the listing while up.

"The Triadex Muse is an early sequencer-based digital synthesizer designed by Edward Fredkin and Marvin Minsky at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1969 and produced in 1972. There were only 300 or so made and hence are very rare. Included with this Muse is the optional External Amplifier/Speaker accessory which is even harder to find.

Condition: The Muse and external speaker were tested - see the video. The basic functions on the Muse work fine. The volume on the External Amplifer works fine as well. Due to my lack of knowledge on how to do so, I did not test the EXT PRE, EXT IN and OUT, nor the KEYBOARD switch on the Muse back. Obviously the EXT SPKR input works fine. On the front, I didn't test the REST and EXTERNAL switch positions.

This Muse was stored in Grandpa Ed's crawl space for the last 40 years. The brushed aluminum is a bit dirty. I cleaned it with mild soap but didn't want to get too aggressive so I'm leaving the restoration to the next owner. There are scratches but nothing too bad. The wood is in good shape but again, scratches. There's a small tear in the blue speaker grill cloth. The Muse slide switches are stiff, but all are functional. They will need to be cleaned and lubed.

Label Information on the Muse back foil label. Hard to read, but I think it says...
MODEL MUSE-1
40 W
No. 010209-117
OK 50 Hz
and on the Speaker...
MODEL AS-1

No. 00214-120

Korg DW6000 rack mount conversion with editor
