Four Seas - sound teaser #1
video upload by Ferry Island Modular
"Here's a demo jam showing off a few things Four Seas can do. All sounds from Four Seas aside from the bass drum from Basimilus Iteritas Alia and the reverb/delay from Mimeophon. Hope you enjoy!
Patch notes:
0:00 - oppressive bass
0:20 - through-zero phase mod, courtesy of Dixie II+
0:45 - hi-hats/percussion using Wogglebug's audio out as a phase mod source
0:58 - swirling synths; two Four Seas outputs mixed into 3 Sisters, wave spread modulated via joystick
1:36 - awesome glitchy "open hats" triggered via Wogglebug's Burst output"
"Four Seas is a four-dimensional wavetable oscillator that transforms sound exploration into a tactile, intuitive experience. Navigate through sonic space using X, Y, and Z controls to explore wavetables as a three-dimensional cube, while the fourth dimension emerges through four related outputs with intelligent spread control.
From gentle detuning to complex microtonal relationships, the spread control offers multiple modes including harmonic ratios, prime numbers, and golden ratio proportions; everything from lush chords to experimental frequency relationships is at your fingertips. The four outputs cascade across wavetable space through intelligent spread algorithms, creating rich, evolving textures like light dispersing through a sonic prism.
The powerful modulation section features thru-zero phase modulation, phase distortion waveshaping, and bitwise XOR for complex sound design. Dual sync inputs with selectable modes, CV control over wavetable banks, and SD card loading for custom wavetables complete the package. Each oscillator pair can switch to LFO rates for modulation duties, and I2C compatibility enables integration with Teletype, Crow, ER-301, and other modules. No menus, no presets — just immediate, musical control over a vast sonic landscape."
Introducing Mimetic Digitwolis: four-channel performance sequencer from Noise Engineering
video upload by Noise Engineering
"Mimetic Digitwolis (MD2) preorders are open now: https://noiseengineering.us/products/...
MD2 starts shipping on September 18, 2025.

0:19 Four Lanes
0:59 Shred

Press release follows:
Los Angeles, CA — Noise Engineering, known for their fun and unique takes on Eurorack modular synthesizers, has released the highly requested Mimetic Digitwolis, a configurable performance sequencer, MIDI-controlled quantizer, and successor to the beloved Mimetic Digitalis.
The original Mimetic Digitalis has become a cult classic, thanks to its quick workflow and performative features. Noise Engineering has worked extensively to revamp and upgrade everything about the new version, while retaining the magic of the original. Fans of the first edition will enjoy familiar features like Shred randomization, extended cartesian sequencing abilities, and familiar editing workflows, all within the same 10 HP package.
Even with those similarities, Mimetic Digitwolis was redesigned from the ground up to be a great performance tool and sequencing utility. The new hardware features five trigger inputs and four CV inputs which can all be freely assigned to dozens of mappings within the module for complete flexibility. All editing and configuration can be done on the new color screen, making it easy to fit the module into your patch and view sequences at a glance. New to version two is the addition of MIDI in and out jacks, allowing a whole new level of connectivity with other studio gear – Digitwolis can be synchronized and controlled with other MIDI devices, and generates MIDI notes and CC modulation.
Mimetic Digitwolis also features a host of highly requested new features. The outputs can sequence four different types of signals – modulation CV, pitch CV, triggers, or gates – or can act as a quantizer on external CV signals. The quantizer can also be used internally on pitch CV lanes, and the scale can be edited within the module or with an external MIDI keyboard. Additionally, clock dividers can be applied to the four channels to change their advance rate, and each channel can have a different sequence length from one to 16 steps.
Despite its compact size and unintimidating interface, it’s clear that Mimetic Digitwolis is a flexible sequencing utility for any system, big or small. "Normally, we put a quote about the product in our press releases," says Kris, the Doer of Many Things at Noise Engineering. "But Mimetic Digitwolis does so much that it speaks for itself."
Mimetic Digitwolis is now open for preorders and starts shipping September 18th, 2025. Available at https://noiseengineering.us and at retailers globally.

"Using some crude paper animations and the Sonicware Liven Evoke as demonstration platform, I explain a whole bunch of parameters of granular effects and synthesis—both what they are and how to use them: buffer, spray, diffusion, direction, shape, feedback, alignment, range, jitter, and more. From a filming/editing standpoint, this is the most elaborate video I've ever made, so I hope people like it...
This video also features very brief cameos from the Texture Lab & the @HologramElectronics Microcosm."

4k Redwood Forrest with rhythmic electronic music
video upload by Saul Stokes - Frequensea
"Expansion was composed in 2018, before a Star's End Gathering performance I did in Philadelphia. The music was intended as a complimentary bonus album for the audience. It's remained obscure, likely also due to the cover, which was drawn by my daughter and is very atypical of electronic music. Expansion has some really chill electronic beats that are unique due to many of them being processed through an old tape recorder. During this time of my life, I was doing a lot of non-multitrack recordings, where I would live mix to compact flash cards in one go. I'm going to be honest and say that the original album had lots of squeaky synth solo work that was a bit too improvised for me. For this Redwood forest video, I performed extensive splicing to remove some of the worst offenders. I think this cut is much cooler with the result being more chill.
The video was created in the Redwood Forest of Reinhardt, Oakland, California. It's an absolutely stunning forest just a few minutes from the city. I had to jump off the main trail onto a small hiking path and then hide the camera. As soon as I left, dancing insects came out in force. If you listen closely, you'll hear some fairies talk in a few portions of the album. Watch the sun slowly move across the plantlife."

"Super cool and funky hardware MIDI sequencer, designed to inspire with a unique user interface that invites experimentation.
Used by artists such as Richie Hawtin/Plastikman, The Orb, Goldie, Howie B, Peter Gabriel, and others.
This is the Mark 2 version, which I bought new from Latronic in 1999. Somehow I wound up with 2 copies of the manual, so you'll have a spare!
Includes original carrying case, 2 manuals, power supply with US power cord (but it is an international power supply, 100V-240V), and the Mark 2 Notron in super-minty condition. Only lightly used in my home studio.
Just powered it up and it works great."

"FRESHLY SERVICED! keybed cleaned, all pots cleaned, new battery, Tauntek MIDI added.
This is hands down my favorite mono synth of all time, such a unique instrument! Designed by Chris Hughes who also designed the WASP and several products for Novation among other things, IMO OSCar was his greatest product. I am only selling as I have two otherwise I'd never let it go! Hands down the best analog dual multi-mode filter in existence! There's additive synthesis in the way of building waveforms by adding harmonics, there's presets, there's an amazing sequencer and arppegiater, there's duophonic functionality. You can get all kinds of crazy vowel/vocal sounds."

"How is this even possible? The sounds of 80’s new wave, techno, dance and electronic in drum kit form all in their original boxes. 😱
Vintage 1980’s Tama Techstar analog drum synthesizer system.
Complete TS-500 drum kit/pads, TS-305 6 voice analog synthesizer, and I do have TDA-60 amplifier available but not included in this auction.
A rare opportunity to own a distinct analog sound that’s totally functional and complete. In most other cases, these would be highly used and abused.
Per the previous owner, these sat in the boxes for the past couple decades. In excellent condition and don’t look to have much heavy play time if any at all.
Check out the video but keep in mind I’m not a drummer! But you can be, with headphones too! 😎
These are vintage and like all vintage gear expect some wear and scuffs associated with age."

"This is one of many videos I've been uploading on IG that feature Papa's CV/gate card - an absolutely indispensable tool for any EMS owner. Add a MIDI-CV converter and you're now in MIDI heaven.
What's happening in this video: CVs and gate are supplied from 2oh2 - Tubbutec modded Roland MC-202. I'm sending CV on channel 1 of 2oh2 to oscillator 1 of the Synthi and another CV channel of the 2oh2 to oscillator 2. Gate comes from channel 1 of the 2oh2.
You can order the CV/gate card here: https://www.portabellabz.be/cvgate.html"

"All tracks were recorded between July 16–18, 2019 at KSYME (Contemporary Music Research Center) in Athens on their Synthi 100. I call them "non-tunes" because they were never intended for release. However, since someone asked about my Synthi 100 experience in Athens, I asked my colleague Marcin Bocinski (legatomastering.pl) to mix and master the recordings."

video upload by atnr
"A piece created with @teenageengineering OP-1 field, PO-32, and @KOMAelektronik Field Kit. Ambient electronica where drones and noise from a cassette player and iPhone overlap with lo-fi synth loops.
The iPhone and tape player are not connected to anything; instead, an electromagnetic pickup captures internal noise from both devices. The tape player emits drone sounds, while the iPhone produces glitch noise.
On the OP-1 field, synth pad loops are performed and layered with additional recorded takes.
The PO-32 plays rhythm patterns, processed through @ChaseBlissAudio MOOD MK II with delay and pitch-shift effects."
