Photokarpy#3 - Arpeggios on SIX (5) Korg ARP Odysseys

video upload by Richard Payne

"Just a quick Sunday Afternoon test of my ARP Odysseys. The free-running LFO mods I did are just the ticket here but a couple definitely need their Oscillators calibrating. I'm especially looking at you #1! A job for this afternoon ...

When I moved from Bristol to Perth, Australia 2 years ago, ARP #3 didn't enjoy the voyage, refused to power up when we got here and is currently with the good technicians at EAV in Morley. It is being represented here by a colour photocopy (photokarpy) sellotaped onto some cardboard.

But there are lots of plans afoot for myself and the Odysseys.

Ambient gigs, Raves, Classical stuff, Weddings, Sausage Sizzles ...

I'll keep yous posted."

Stunning Delay & Reverb Eurorack FX // COSMIC DEBRIS from WMD & Infrasonic Audio

video upload by DivKid

"Join us for a deep dive into these stunning Eurorack FX with Cosmic Debris from WMD & Infrasonic Audio. You can bend and twist delays from clocked delays, multi tap style delay spreads, chorus & flanger modulation FX, spray delay lines out into reverbs creatively and plenty more. It's super hands on and performable, so whether you're on stage playing with FX or in the studio designing the perfect FX chain it's massively flexible."

Jam at Tre Modular Nr.10

video upload by Tre Modular

"If I had to give this composition a name, it would be 'Waiting for Summer'. Don't know how it is where you are, but here in Latvia everything is green while the temperature stubbornly refuses to climb much past 20°C. This one tries to capture the promise of the adventures summer holds and the impatient wait for them to truly arrive.

On more technical note. Patch consists of four detuned oscillators mixed through Permidas' max value circuit and in parallel, one oscillator routed through Steps to do its magic. Each of these two voices gets its own Liminal Space.

Hope you enjoy it!"

Dreadbox Artemis #1 | Winterdagen

video upload by Winterdagen

"I'm a huge fan of Dreadbox synths, and lately I've been lucky enough to get my hands on their newest poly synth Artemis, which just got a really great update. To me, Artemis feels a bit like the best of their Murmux Adept and Typhon combined, but with its own character and unique synthesis possibilities.

For this droney piece, I used lots of the amazing (and newly updated) Sinevibes effects, mainly the super lush reverbs and BBD Playground. Both pretty heavily modulated, which adds to the detuned character of this patch.

Artemis is another incredible synth from Dreadbox and I cant wait to show you more patches and pieces I've been making with it!"

Fading Horizons | Ambient Session with Sequential Fourm & Digitone2 (Soft Pulse 10)

video upload by Haiko Senchan

"It's been a wild week, and the Sequential Fourm has arrived. This is my first real session with the synth, and I think I like it. I always thought I didn't need a keyboard, but I guess I was wrong. Since the synth doesn't have any built-in effects, I naturally added plenty in Ableton. Delay, reverb, and a few other things to give the sound some punch as part of the Ambient series.

All the sounds are from the Fourm except for one arpeggiator line. I used Stepic to trigger the Digitone and opened and closed the filter in the video. I also played the high pad live during the video.

I think the synth will be staying for a while; it was a real joy to create this track, and I hope you like it.

I wish you all a happy, sunny weekend."

"An ambient piece layering the sounds of the forests of Karuizawa with ‪@MoogSynthesizers‬ Moog One, ‪@SequentialLLC‬ Prophet-10, ‪@NordKeyboards‬ Nord Lead, and ‪@YamahaSynthsOfficial‬ CP88.

On the Moog One, the filter envelope is set to loop mode, transforming chords into evolving drones.

On the Prophet-10, synth pads are performed with filtering and reverb applied through the ‪@strymon‬ NIGHTSKY.

On the Nord Lead, synth pads are played through the ‪@gfisys‬ Specular Tempus with reverb processing.

On the CP88, Rhodes sounds are performed with delay.

The field recordings were captured in the forests of Karuizawa. They include the sound of footsteps on fallen leaves, a small stream, and birdsong."

BOARDS OF CANADA - Father And Son (COVER - Elektron Syntakt & Prophet REV2)

video upload by nicola neeco

"It immediately stood out to me as one of the most interesting tracks on the record, so I wanted to explore it in my own way rather than recreate it exactly.

I didn’t use the vocal samples, both because they’re difficult to replicate and because I was more interested in focusing on the rhythm and groove created by the synth, drums, and bass working together.

For the sound, I used the Prophet Rev2 for the keys and the Elektron Syntakt for the drums, bass and a pad-like sound.
All the patches and programming were done by me from scratch."

"Alright - so I guess someone really cool (Em-) decided to give the Elektron Monomachine new life - I installed this on both my Monomachines and gave it a test. I know there are some bugs, but after reading through them it didn't seem like it would affect what I was doing. I'm extremely excited by the updates, as they address the thing I missed a lot on the Monomachine - independent track lengths. Here you can hear just a single pattern with longer total patterns. Honestly, it's kind of game changing. So thank you Em-. This is great!

Meet Meow Seq

video upload by Floof Audio

"Meet Meow Seq, a VST3 sequencer inspired by modular setups.
Download the free trial from floofaudio.com

Full version is 25% off for the first two weeks (until June 15).

Meow Seq is a sequencer, a MIDI phrase writer, and a creative kick in the pants to your everyday piano-roll-oriented life.

At its core, two machines work together to generate a single MIDI output. The top machine controls timing, when notes happen and for how long. The bottom machine controls pitch, which notes play and how. Both machine contains five sequencers, all running independently with their own step lengths and play modes. Mix and match freely to build patterns that evolve and surprise, then route the output to any hardware or software synth you like.

The inspiration comes from Eurorack-style sequencing, where multiple sequencers interact to control time, pitch, and modulation in complex and sometimes chaotic ways."

Modular Dub Techno Sounds AMAZING

video upload by EZBOT

"There is something about Dub Techno that I just can't get enough of. Maybe it's the echoing chords and atmospheres, or maybe it's the clean simplicity of the drum programming. Whatever it is modular synthesizers seem to do it the best. The advantage of modular is the fact that we can have so many AAA effects and voices in a single compact case. Today I show you what that can sound like and discuss why it works in this particular 7U 104hp arrangement. Let's make some tunes! Today's featured module is the XAOC Odessa, an additive oscillator with great hands on control."

Did Moog ruin synths? Suzanne Ciani reveals analog's original sin.

video upload by SpectreVision Radio and Phantom Power Podcast

"Today we talk to modular synth pioneer Suzanne Ciani and MIT Spatial Sound Lab researcher Kamran V. Suzanne and Kamran both love quadraphonic sound, and they have a new quad release coming out on June 4th called Ciani/Orkest. They are on a mission to make quadraphonic music accessible to both musicians and to listeners, and in this interview, Kamran will explain how, you, with no special equipment, can listen to their new album in quad.
We'll also get into how analog synthesizers actually work, the early history of Buchla synths versus Moog synths, why Suzanne thinks keyboards diminish the potential of synths, and how Suzanne designed some of the most recognizable sounds of the 1980s.
Suzanne Ciani is a Grammy Award nominated composer, electronic musician, and neoclassical recording artist who has released over 20 solo albums, including Seven Waves and The Velocity of Love. Her work has been featured in Hollywood films, video games, and countless commercials. She was inducted into the first class of keyboard magazine's Hall of Fame, alongside Bob Moog, Don Buchla, and Dave Smith. And she was the subject of the feature documentary, A Life in Waves.
Kamran V is an arts technologist and MIT Spatial Sound Lab researcher, and he's a National Endowment for the Arts grant recipient. He's worked at Interscope Records, produced immersive music releases for Nine Inch Nails, Sting, and Beck, and he ran the music tech fest, Moogfest. He's also on the board of Dub Lab.

Andreas Trobollowitsch // Live @ Erica Synths Garage

video upload by Erica Synths

"Andreas Trobollowitsch’s residency at Erica Synths Garage felt less like traditional sound design and more like an ongoing experiment in movement, texture and controlled unpredictability. A Vienna-based electroacoustic musician, composer and sound artist, Andreas works at the intersection of sound, visual art and mechanics - building self-developed instruments and exploring rotation, physical processes and unconventional ways of producing sound. During his stay, wooden turntables met drum machines, mechanical systems collided with synthesisers, and ideas developed through curiosity rather than fixed outcomes.

Dreadbox Polyend Medusa

video upload by ollilaboratories

"I have always wanted a Medusa ever since i tried it at Superbooth (i think?) many years ago, i found it very intriguing, both layout / workflow with the grid and the very special sound engine. For some reason i never got to the point actually buying one until the other day when i stumbled over one used for a very reasonable price. I mean, i dont even really have the space for it.. i just knew this was the time to get one. :)

What you see and hear in this video is me taking it for a quick testrun, i love its quirkiness, how one can assign the voices are being played which creates some really fun happy accidents all over the place. The grid is quantized into Dorian scale, root in D.

FX from the Vongon Ultrasheer Reverb and Red Panda Particle, EHX 720 Stereo Looper from for the intro loop recording. All is recorded live straight on 2 track with some minor touch up post, e.g limiter and little bit of EQ at the top.

Cheers and Enjoy!"

Hydrasynth pros:
Less expensive
Velocity and pressure sensitive pads (desktop) poly aftertouch and ribbon (keyboard version)
More filter and reverb models
Different wave mutators vs digiformer
Macro mode for the knobs
More flexible arpeggiator
Desktop version is smaller and lighter, and comes with rack ears

Hydrasynth cons:
Monotimbral, 8 voices vs Bi-timbral and 16 voices on Iridium
No resonator engine
No custom wavetables
Shorter wavetables (8 vs 128 waveforms in a table)
No sampler/granular playback engine
No engine like the kernel engines
Mono filters as opposed to stereo filters in Iridium
No proper sequencer vs two sequencers on Iridium"

Love Synthesizers First Love interview and sounds superbooth 26

video upload by Take the Fear out the Gear

"Hi everybody this time we bring you the Love Instruments first love interview and sounds at superbooth 26

First Love is a desktop 4-part multi-timbral FM Synthesizer with deep FM editing and waveshaping options. FM synthesis doesn’t always have to be DX-7-style. Love Synthesizers proves this.

Instead of dragging the user into the next operator nightmare, they’ve developed their own playful concept consisting of a 7-inch touchscreen, knobs, and buttons. This is supported by a colorful user interface that tries to enhance this new FM synthesis experience

For example, to create FM, you swipe one oscillator to another with your finger, and so on. At Superbooth 2026, the developers, including founder Kári Halldórsson, showcased the progress they have made over the past few months.

This includes a finished sound engine featuring four polyphonic FM synthesizers, a dedicated onboard FX engine with reverb, delay, chorus, and freezer per part, and the now-implemented 'The Playground'.

Moog Muse dynamic improvisation

video upload by VoxModula Archives

"This short dynamic improvisation with the Moog Muse uses only two modules of the instrument: an LFO and the mixer. The Moog Muse has a very powerful mixer section, and by using only this section we can shape our sound, giving it any kind of nuance. I enjoy hearing the timbral variation created by increasing and decreasing the volume of the two voices; the result is a very powerful dynamic variation."

Bad Gear - FORCE in 2026???

video upload by AudioPilz

"Welcome to Bad Gear, the show about the world’s most-hated audio tools. There are electronic musical instruments with a clear purpose: analog synths deliver classic tones and social media swag, plugins and workstations are great tools if you actually want to make money and Eurorack is still a healthier form of escapism than buying pills at a gas station.

Today, however, we are going to talk about The Force. The mission of this unholy 2019 lovechild of an MPC and Ableton incarnate was nebulous from the beginning and since then the machine was so profoundly transformed by a slow yet steady stream of updates that it is hard to tell whether it is still worth using it in 2026 - or if it ever was."

Simmons SDS 8 - Better sounding beats

video upload by Stazma

"Today I want to show you a simple trick I've been enjoying a lot to make sounds that are more to my taste with that SDS8 I've been given by one of my brothers a few years back: you can trigger two voices at once using a splitter or mult!

This opens up the sound design palette quite a bit and I prefer to have less sounds in number to make them sound better (or at least to my taste).

Have fun!!!"

Groove Synthesis 3rd Wave — The COMPLETE Review (Every Feature Explored)

video upload by Scott's Synth Stuff

"The Groove Synthesis 3rd Wave is a 24-voice wavetable synthesizer with real analog filters, three oscillators per voice, and a 6-stage wave envelope that can independently sweep each oscillator through 64-position wavetables. It's built as a modern successor to the PPG Wave 2.2 and 2.3, carrying the original PPG wavetables alongside 56 high-resolution modern wavetables, analog-modeled waveforms, and — as of OS 1.8 — a built-in sampler. In this review, I go through every major feature of the 3rd Wave in detail: the four oscillator types (PPG legacy, modern user wavetables, analog-modeled, and samples), the dual filter architecture (4-pole analog low-pass plus 2-pole zero-delay state-variable), all four envelopes, the four LFOs, the 16-slot modulation matrix, 11 built-in effects, the arpeggiator, the pattern-based sequencer with parameter automation, 4-part multitimbral layering and splits, the Wave Maker custom wavetable tool (including Serum wavetable import), unison with chord memory, MPE support, and more.

Whether you're considering buying one, comparing it to other hardware wavetable synths like the Waldorf Iridium, Modal Cobalt, or ASM Hydrasynth, or just curious what a modern PPG-inspired instrument sounds like in 2025/2026, this is the full picture. I cover every section of the signal chain with sound demos, explain what makes the wave envelope system unique, show how to build patches from scratch, and give my honest take on where the 3rd Wave excels and where it falls short. Timestamps for every section are below — jump to whatever interests you."

Torso S-4 2.2 Beta: The Revamped MOSAIC Engine (Deep Dive Tutorial & Demo)

video upload by Andre Bregegere

"Following up on my previous improvised jam (Torso S-4 Explorations Vol. 30), this video is a dedicated deep-dive tutorial and demonstration of the newly revamped MOSAIC engine introduced in the 2.2 beta firmware update.

The Torso S-4's granular engine has received a massive overhaul, and in this guide, I break down exactly how it works so you can get the most out of your sound design sessions.

What I Cover:
• Detailed Scan Mode and Parameter Walkthrough: An in-depth look at how the different scan modes behave under the 2.2 beta firmware, and at the interface changes and new parameters.
• The 'Fox.wav' Demo: To clearly demonstrate these technical changes, I put the engine to work using a single vocal sample (the legendary 'fox.wav' sample from CSound history), allowing you to clearly hear how each parameter shapes the texturing, time-stretching, and cloud generation.

Whether you're looking to update your hardware or just curious about the direction Torso Electronics is taking the S-4 sampler, I hope this helps guide your workflow!

Hello Darkness My Old Friend - Arp Of Darkness v1.4.0 Free Firmware Update & Features

video upload by FlatSix Modular

"Arp Of Darkness firmware v1.4.0 is here, and it's a significant one. Three new features that change how you interact with the Arp Of Darkness on the fly — here's what's new.

CV Keyboard Mode — Hold the High C (Shift) button at boot and you drop into a full monophonic CV keyboard, complete with gate output and portamento via the pot. No need to swap firmware just to play a few notes. It's the same keyboard mode from Shroud Of Turing, now living inside the Arp Of Darkness.

Remix Buffer — A short dual-tap of Octave Up + Octave Down shuffles your note buffer order on the next clock. The notes themselves stay the same — only the sequence changes. It's a quick, surgical way to break out of a pattern without losing the phrase you built.

Auto-Remix — Want the buffer to shuffle itself? Auto-Remix does exactly that, automatically reshuffling every 2, 4, or 8 loops. Activate it queued (waits for the end of the current loop) or immediate (fires on the next clock) — your call. Deactivate with the same dual-tap that triggers a manual remix.
Together, these features make the Arp Of Darkness significantly more alive in a live performance context. You can let it breathe and evolve without ever stopping the clock.

Full documentation + free firmware download: https://www.flatsixmodular.com/firmware
Each module in the Nocturne Alchemy Platform shares the same hardware — so if you own any FlatSix module, this firmware is already yours. Swap away."

LARKING — Quantized Ambient Drone Instrument

video upload by recoverysounds

www.recoveryeffects.com

"Larking is a 4 voice ambient drone synthesizer that redefines what a playable synth can be. Pitch is quantized, with each voice locking to a selectable key and one of eight musical modes for consistent harmonic control.

A standalone instrument for immediate tactile performance and tonal exploration, Larking functions as a sound design tool, performance instrument, or central voice in effects based setups. It integrates easily into pedalboard systems and complex signal chains.

Without traditional keys, it shifts focus from fixed patterns to guided harmonic discovery. Voices can be triggered via onboard controls, gate inputs, or MIDI, supporting hands on playing, modular systems, and sequencing.

Each voice features independent pitch control that snaps to scale degrees, enabling open ended melodic movement within a stable musical framework.

At its core is a morphing tonal engine. The Shape control moves each voice from a warm sine like foundation into harmonic saturation with analog style overtones, grit, and complexity, delivering a deep resonant low end with strong weight and bass response. Attack and Decay shape voice response from percussive rhythmic strikes to slow evolving swells that dissolve into space.

A global LFO modulates pitch across all voices, from subtle drift to extreme instability. Onboard reverb expands everything into a deep spatial field and atmospheric wash. The result is an instrument between a melodic synth, drone machine, and experimental performance tool, grounded in musical structure and open to pitch based exploration."

Prophet 10 and MIDI MORPHEUS - an LFO generator for the Prophet 10

video upload by MIDERA

"When I was playing around with the Roland MKS-80, I kept thinking "My Prophet 10 sounds soooo much like this, do I really need to spend $$$ on getting an MKS?" The things I loved so much about the MKS (and actually the Kawai SX-240 which I sold) related to the LFO. I love a good reverse saw LFO and a random LFO. Notably, these are absent from the Prophet 10.

I started building another device I haven't showcased yet, and I realized I could repurpose that work to make an LFO module, which is what you're seeing here. So what can it do? It currently targets multiple CC destinations with adjustable depth, speed, and waveform shape.

Been having a lot of fun with it so far, creating sounds the Prophet 10 could not do unless I had a Yorick LFE, which is no longer made and was a little too expensive for me to justify purchasing. This is far cheaper (although I don't want to think about how much I've spent in parts/time building this!).

5/24/26 EML 200 + Metasonix TM-3 & TM-1 & TM-7 + Lower West Side Studios CGS01 + Alesis MIDIVERB II

video upload by Cfpp0

"The ElectroComp EML 200 master triangle is feeding the Lower West Side Studios CGS01 Sub Oscillator module, which is producing a sequence. The positive output of that sequence is modulating the Metasonix TM-3 gas-tube dual VCO, which runs through the Metasonix TM-1 SE waveshaper. The positive sequence from the CGS01 is also modulating the VCA input on the TM-1 SE. The negative output of the sequence from the CGS01 is sequencing the two VCOs on the EML 200, through its VCA, and with its internal spring reverb. The TM-1 SE audio output runs through the Metasonix TM-7 ultra-distortion scrotum smasher, which is being modulated by the EML 200 envelope output. From 1:49, the TM-3 suboctave and oscillator sync are creating some cool percussive spasms. Some reversed reverb is applied from the Alesis MIDIVERB II."

Audio Damage Releases Traverse Lo-Fi Tape Effect

via Audio Damage

"Traverse is a lo-fi tape effect and stereo delay in one plugin. The cassette side runs a hysteresis-modeled tape engine with Drive, Wow, Flutter, and a tilt-EQ Tone control. The delay side does what delays do — Time, Feedback, Width, sync, ping-pong. A Post-Delay routing toggle lets you swap their order, so you can use it as either a tape-flavored delay or a cassette effect with a delay built in.

Layered on top: a four-control splice system for procedural dropouts, and a procedural noise generator with nine styles — Hiss, Crackle, Dust, Fan Rumble, 60Hz Hum, 50Hz Hum, White, Pink, and the Califone Card Reader. The noise routes into the cassette path, so whatever else you've dialed in shapes it on the way out.

This is the third entry in our Motion Effects family, alongside Ascent and Descent. Same as the rest of our catalog: Mac, Windows, Linux, and iOS. No DRM, no subscriptions, no dongles, perpetual license."
