Oberheim TEO-5 - Can it do the OB6 Patch 007 Broken EP?


video upload by Scott McAuley Sounds

"Patches will be available at https://www.orano.co.uk/shop or http://www.synthsounds.co.uk

A very common question I am asked is can the TEO-5 do the infamous OB-6 - Patch007 Broken EP? so I set out over the past couple of days, tweaking, and programming to see how close the TEO can get to the OB6 Broken EP Patch, and I am happy to say although they are very different synths, the TEO can get remarkably close!

Here is a demo of Two Patches i will include in Labyrinth Vol.2

First Patch 'SM OB6 Broken EP' is as close as I could get to my OB6
Second 'SM TEO Broken EP' is a fuller, noisier version which has a bit more body to it.

Enjoy!
Scott.

DUSTING OFF // AnalogFX SER-2020 // Dynacord SRS-56 // No Talking


video upload by LESINDES

https://www.analogfx.com/

"DYNACORD SRS-56 is a very are STEREO ANALOG DELAY pseudo REVERB from 1977.

Rebuilt of the ultra rare SYNTON SYRINX Dutch keyboard synth.
I cannot compare but the unusual filter setting of
2 bandpass and 1 lowpass VCFs, with 4 different routings
give a lot of modulation freedom and rendition of rather unusual
sounds.

Since I am not a fan of black gear. I tried my best in 2023 and contacted
ANALOG FX. And they had been so kind as to manufacture a
custom blue face synth which I have only seen in some
preproductions units and, of course, in the historic
SYRINX which was available also in red.

For the image angle had to use the wide angle and so only a quite low resolution. So there is not much detail. Sorry for that."

"4th of July/25 Zerosum Inertia TVM23 & Horripilation & Voltage Controlled Annihilation + Metasonix R-57

Happy Independence Day! It’s the 4th of July! And this year we have a flute playing the National Anthem through seven vacuum tubes and a neon gas filled lamp in four modules by two great American companies: Metasonix & Zerosum Inertia. The flute gets boosted by the Zerosum Inertia TVM23 and is sent to the Zerosum Inertia Horripilation and Voltage Controlled Annihilation before passing through the Metasonix R-57 Dual Preamp/VCA."

SPHERICAL SOUND SOCIETY Introduces OMNICYCLONE - A Generative FM Beat Machine


Launching OMNICYCLONE. A Generative FM Beat Machine video upload by SPHERICAL SOUND SOCIETY

"OMNICYCLONE is a unique take on generative synthesizers. It's primarily focused on percussive phrases, but it can also create melodic content.

At its core lies a Yamaha OPL2 emulator that has been extensively modified to achieve things the original chips couldn't – like a fully stereo image and a complete revamp of sonic possibilities.

We've taken some of the most interesting features from WINTERMUTE, expanded the emulator further, and hybridized them with OPERA ROTAS features to birth a new generative beast that sounds surprisingly retro and modern at the same time.

You can order Omnicyclone here:

"OMNICYCLONE is a unique take on generative synthesizers. It's primarily focused on percussive phrases, but it can also create melodic content.

At its core lies an OPL2 emulator that has been extensively modified to achieve things the original Yamaha chips couldn't – like a fully stereo image. Some Yamaha chips of that era only offered hard-panned stereo (just center, left, or right). OMNICYCLONE provides 256 possible stereo positions, which sounds probably awesome.

We've taken some of the most interesting features from WINTERMUTE, expanded the emulator further, and hybridized them with OPERA ROTAS features to birth a new generative beast that sounds surprisingly retro and modern at the same time.

In this new incarnation, we've added volume bars for each channel, providing a clearer visual understanding of what's happening under the hood.

The synth is controlled by 2 banks of parameters, plus a fully-featured global LFO and global parameters for controlling each of the ADSR stages. It also includes a variety of new generative strategies that are explained in the manual.

OMNICYCLONE runs on the Fluorine hardware, meaning you can flash Fluorine's other firmwares (there are 4 different ones to choose from) in addition to the OMNICYCLONE firmware. This gives you multiple synths in one piece of hardware.

There's also a new firmware that turns the Fluorine hardware into a USB MIDI Controller with 2 banks of potentiometers. This means you essentially have multiple synths plus a MIDI controller in one device

The OMNICYCLONE firmware is closed source. Existing Fluorine users can order the digital files to easily switch between their other Fluorine firmwares and the OMNICYCLONE firmware. The USB MIDI Controller firmware is also free for Fluorine users, but the OMNICYCLONE firmware has a small fee to support its development.

"Sound: Ambient Drone Sample Pack https://akihikomatsumoto.sellfy.store...

A cinematic atmosphere made of sound, not melody.

This is not a collection of loops. It is a carefully curated archive of long-form drone textures, each exceeding five minutes, sculpted for those who create without the need for rhythm, harmony, or resolution. Designed for deep listeners and sound designers.

From seasoned ambient producers to experimental filmmakers, this pack speaks to those who understand that sound can live and breathe without a beat. Built from legendary hardware units and bespoke digital tools, these drones are not simply sounds. They are environments.
What you get
152 Long Drones

Each drone is a sustained sound object, stripped of melodic intention, tonal center, and conventional structure. Yet within that restraint lies a world of motion, tension, and resonance. Ideal for background atmospheres, immersive installations, or the subtle shaping of sonic space.

Crafted with attention to sonic texture
Every file in this pack was created by hand. Each layer was tuned for grain, depth, and movement. This is not the kind of material you will find in generic libraries. It rewards slow listening and detailed placement. If you care about the feel of sound as much as its function, you will feel at home here. Always growing, always free to update

If you have already purchased this pack, new files have already been added at no additional cost. If you are still considering it, now is a good time. Ambient Drone (Sample Pack) is in constant evolution. Once you own it, every update is yours.

Dreadbox Artemis | Six ambient sketches


video upload by Jay Hosking

"Please support my work on Patreon: / jayhosking
Exploring the Dreadbox Artemis in my way. All sounds from the synth, with no additional effects on the master (other than a little compression and limiting for volume).

00:00 Super slow envelopes
03:29 Exploring bass sequence w/ effects
05:08 Modulated osc drone magic
11:06 Stereo bass arp
15:30 ???
15:38 Cover song on modulated pad
17:24 1980s pad

Full disclosure: while I have bought many, many Dreadbox synths over the years, Dreadbox did send this one to me for free.

Here, I explore the Artemis for the first time, mainly initializing patches and seeing where they lead me. I find that while other demos have done a great job of showing off the wild and weird, the Artemis mainly leads me to two places: slow beautiful expansive pads, and bouncy unison basses.

There are a few things that elevate this device over other table-top modules, like the Nymphes: the spread of stereo voices (for both unison and polyphonic patches), effects (very decent sounding delay and reverbs, for example), and an internal drive for shaping the character/personality. Plus, all of these patches took just a minute or two to set up; the Artemis has a fast and friendly interface for exploring.

There are at least three ideas here that I might potentially develop further, which is quite a high hit rate for a first exploration of a synth. I can't wait to get back to the city and put the Artemis on the table with some friends.

There is one notable shortcoming to the Artemis as of today (4th July 2025): its envelopes have something that occasionally makes them get very clicky at onset of gate/note. I'm not sure what's causing it, but contributing factors seem to include using the internal drive, and not just at very fast attack rates. In any case, it's a bummer. I've read online that Dreadbox are currently working on this in terms of a firmware update, but I don't personally have any firsthand information. The clickiness really can interfere with a project, so know if you're thinking of buying, you should plan to work around this shortcoming. (My personal opinion: don't buy gear for promised or hoped-for firmware updates, because they may never come, and they may never solve the problem.)

But otherwise, Artemis is a great synth. Lots of personality, strangely well behaved at times, very good at bouncy basses, and very easy to design interesting sounds with.

Thanks for listening.

The cover song is one of my very favourites, "Poor Edward" by Tom Waits."

Presumable (Digitakt2 + Vermona PerFourMer mk2 + Strega) Performance Version


video upload by Music4screens

"Performance film version of 'Presumable'.

All created and performed on Digitakt 2, Vermona Perfourmer mk2 and MakeNoise Strega.
Digitakt was the sequencer, the glitch drums and texture inspiration.
Vermona PerFourMer the bass king of the track with two bass tracks and the melodic lead.
Strega is the sci-fi synth line abusing on the filter, the activation interference and the pitch knob. This was effected by Hologram Microcosm for space.

I enjoyed so much in the making and performing it for the video."

via this eBay listing, also on Reverb

"ONE OF A KIND custom WHITE YAMAHA DX5 6-operator digital FM synthesizer.

This DX5 is not like any you are likely ever to have seen. It has been specially modified by Allen Coppock at Nashville's famous Synth Spa with a custom made white overlay, which retains the beautiful pastel colors that the factory DX5 uses, but how striking they look on a white background! It has special rosewood side panels and new negative display in place of the original---even the sharps and flats are not black but are that Yamaha brown that is the standard body color of the DX5 and DX7, and that matches the brown lettering on the control panel! In addition, the action has been gone over and the synth has been recapped. This DX5 also includes a pair of the amazing Hypersynth 705 cartridges. These alone cost $429.00 and are not even currently available, having been sold out.

Hypersynth 'Hcard-705' is a multibank cartridge pair for expanding the external memory of Yamaha DX5 and DX1. DX5/1 voice memory is limited to 32 presets for each parts A and B, which could be upgraded to 64 presets by adding an external Yamaha "Data RAM" cartridge. "Data RAM" is discontinued, rare, and expensive. Its third-party versions rely on a battery for data retention. "Hcard-705" can be used as a drop-in replacement for Yamaha "DATA RAM" cartridge. it stores up to 400 banks per cartridge without the worry of battery life and data loss. Hcard-705 is compatible with DX5/1 voice and performance format.

Features:

-Memory size for voice: Up to 800 banks (25600 Voices, card A+B).
-Memory size for performance: Up to 400 banks (25600 Performances, card A).
-Loaded with 52 voicebanks per card.
-Loaded with 2 performance banks (Hyper-Bank + Yamaha Factory).
-Instant access to different banks using touch buttons.
-Two digits bank indicator display.
-No need for a battery.
-Drop in replacement for "Data RAM", "Voice ROM" and "Perf Rom" cartridge.
-Hidden "Memory Protect" option.
-Compatible with Yamaha DX5 and DX1.

Performance Banks (Hyper-Bank + Yamaha Factory):

Performance is the magic part of DX1/5 which enables Dual and Split modes. In single mode, the DX1/5 engine is nothing more than a DX7 MKI. Hyper-Bank is the first third-party and commercially available performance bank for Yamaha DX1/5. Hyper-Bank contains 64 presets in 8 categories: Gated/Rhythmic, Synth, Pad, Yamaha Bests, Key/Piano, Bell, Bass/Lead, Misc. The sounds cover new age, ambient, retro, vintage electro, disco, and EDM genres.

Voice Banks:

"Hcard-705" pair is loaded with 52 voicebanks per card:

-Hyper-Bank voices (Bank 0-1)
-Yamaha DX1/DX5 original voice ROMs (Bank 2-3)
-All Hcard-701 soundbanks (Bank 4-27)

video upload by Frequency Central

"In this video I'm addressing the four inputs of Pretzel Logic from the four gate outputs of Akropoli - see the LEDs dance in complex rhythmic patterns - and of course each LED also represents a gate output from Pretzel Logic.

Akropoli's CV output is patched into Dark Star to create beautiful moods and arpeggios.

I'm tweaking Akropoli's Presets and Modes, which is represented aurally by Dark Star and visually by Pretzel Logic.
