20 Years Later: The Korg Radias Still Sounds Incredible! Preset Demo |No Talking|

video upload by Davide Puxeddu

"In this video I play a curated selection of presets, showing why this synth still sounds fresh, wide, and inspiring even after 20 years.
Expect lush pads, deep basses, evolving textures and signature arpeggiators that defined the early 2000s Korg sound.

🎧 Best experienced on headphones – everything you hear comes straight from the Radias, no external effects or EQ.

✨ About the Korg Radias
Released in 2006, the Radias combines virtual-analog oscillators, formant motion sequencing and an advanced vocoder, making it a true hybrid instrument that still rivals many modern synths today."

This video is a walkthrough of selected presets that demonstrate the capabilities of the new engine, from rich virtual analog textures to modern digital effects.
Recorded directly via line-out for the best audio quality. No talking.

The patches in this video showcase the updated filter character, the new effects section (Reverb/Delay), and the dynamic response of the new keybed.

🎧 Headphones or Studio Monitors recommended."

Korg KingKorg NEO - Sound Demo & Best Presets (No Talking)

video upload by Davide Puxeddu

"In this video, we explore a curated selection of the Korg KingKorg NEO's best factory presets to test the true capabilities of its XMT (eXpanded Modelling Technology) sound engine. There is no talking, just pure direct audio to help you evaluate the filters, oscillators, and onboard effects of this Virtual Analog synth.

🎧 Headphones or Studio Monitors are recommended for the best experience.

🎛️ About the Korg KingKorg NEO:
The KingKorg NEO is a powerful Virtual Analog synthesizer featuring 24-voice polyphony and a 3-oscillator-per-voice architecture. In this playthrough, I focused on highlighting:

• XMT Engine: Its ability to generate warm analog tones as well as hybrid digital timbres (DWGS/PCM).

• Filter Modeling: Showcasing the emulation of historic filters (MS-20, Acid, Vintage models).

• Effects: The use of the 3 master effect slots (Pre FX, Mod FX, Rev/Delay) that add character without external processing.

Thanks to Algam Eko, Korg distributor in Italy, for lending me the KingKorg NEO for the making of this video. https://algameko.com/it/"

まるでMemorymoogの質感!? GS MUSIC e7 Poly Analog Synth from Argentina [no talking]

video upload by いーえるP@TinySymphony

"Reverb : UAD Lexicon 224

MOOG ONE よりも、Sequential TRIGON-6 よりもMemorymoogに近いと思っているアナログポリシンセ、それがこの GS MUSIC e7です。
海外フォーラムでも『e7』はmemorymoogと最も競合する音色・質感を持つとよく言われてるのですが、皆さんはどう思われましたか？

GS MUSIC
https://www.gsmusic.com/synth-store

去年、5Gには黒バージョンしか無かったので、地球の裏側アルゼンチンから個人輸入しました。なんと国際送料無料だったんです!"

Googlish:

"Reverb: UAD Lexicon 224

I think this GS MUSIC e7 is an analog polyphonic synthesizer that's closer to the Memorymoog than the MOOG ONE or the Sequential TRIGON-6.
It's often said in overseas forums that the 'e7' has the most competitive sound and texture compared to the Memorymoog, but what do you all think?

GS MUSIC https://www.gsmusic.com/synth-store

Last year, only the black version of the 5G was available, so I imported it personally from Argentina on the other side of the world. And surprisingly, international shipping was free!"

Designed for a wide range of genres, you can spark fresh ideas during the creative process by switching between 145 sound presets and 16 drum kits.
Tune your sound presets however you like them using the low-pass filter and amp envelope.

These parameters can be automated for each pattern, allowing you to dynamically change the tone as well as the chord progression. This allows you to create lively phrases.

Easily make unique chord progressions

Chord Cruiser Mode
Generate up to 110,000 chord combinations that you can use to create your own progressions.
Put the groovebox in Chord Cruiser mode, and an exclusive algorithm selects and suggests multiple musically compatible chords from its database. You can listen to these chords and assign your favorite to a keyboard, triggering the next suggestion automatically.
With this intuitive workflow at your fingertips, you can enjoy a simple process to create original tracks.

Versatile arrangement features and intuitive instrument control

"Slow Burn" original jazz-funk

video upload by Jeremy Parker

"#funk #jazz #rhodes #nord #moog #arturia #korg #hohner
Here's my latest concoction from the studio featuring the Rhodes EK10 MKIII, ‪@NordKeyboards‬ Stage 4, ‪@KorgOfficial‬ miniKORG 700fs, ‪@ArturiaOfficial‬ Polybrute, Hohner Clavinet E7 and ‪@MoogSynthesizers‬ Minitaur. The Rhodes is going through the ‪@rhodesmusic‬ V-Pan plugin during most of the tune, with the solo section using a Line 6 Echo Park and ElectroHarmonix C0ckfight wah-wah pedal. The Nord is using "Swiss Lead" from J3PO's Nord Stage patches ‪@iamj3po‬ . The Clav is going through the Electroharmonix C0ckfight pedal as well. I programmed all drums and used Addictive Drums 2. Enjoy!"

Anubis - Amiga version

video upload by MIDI IN

"The music here was captured directly from the back of the Amiga. For the video, I had trouble with capturing the monitor output and composite looked terrible, so I pointed a camera at the little telly and it seems fine.

The .mod file (actually .med) should play on a variety of players but your mileage may vary. It'll sound best using Octamed Player. It sounds good to me in Hippo, but not so good in Eagle (distorted, for reasons I don't understand). It also plays on modern computers in players such as VLC, but it does seem that that's not respecting the proper volume attenuations that I've set for each instrument.

New Filter Design Experiment!

video upload by gotharman

"ONLY AUDIO IN LEFT CHANNEL!
When I discontinued Urano for the first time, I was stupid and selling my own Urano. Last weekend I managed to finish a new Urano for myself :)
After playing with it for a week, I realized how much I love its dual filter with drive, and I decided to try to engineer this design a bit further.

This test design has lot of character and LPF, BPF and allpass modes.
I hope that you will enjoy :)"

MATRIX VCF & Voltage Control - Creating presets with fixed voltages

video upload by AJH Synth Official

"Here I'm using Pressure Points to select different sounds/settings on the Matrix VCF - this filter has full CV control of all functions, including the selection of all 16 different filter types (Mode). Because the Matrix has such a huge range of filter sounds, it is very useful to be able to recall them instantly using a fixed-voltage controller or sequencer.
I'm also feeding it 2 VCOs and noise initially, but later replacing the raw sawtooth waves with the same saw processed by the WAVE SWARM - this is a sawtooth animator, creating 12 additional faux saws from 1 or 2 incoming oscillators to create a fat 'super saw' effect.

Video & Performance by @DreamsOfWires

The AJH SYNTH Eurorack modular range consists of high-end modules, all hand-made in the UK, most of which are based on classic, vintage designs, authentically recreating the circuitry of much sought-after analogue instruments and technologies of the past, whilst greatly expanding them, and bringing them to modern Eurorack levels of convenience, limitless flexibility, and reliability.

Ultimate Uplifting Trance Basslines for Serum 2 | Official NatLife Soundset

Serum Uplifting Basslines (Official Serum 2 Revamp) by NatLife
NatLife originally created the Uplifting Basslines series as an essential toolkit for Trance producers. Now, this iconic collection returns with a total sonic overhaul specifically for Serum 2. Get the professional middle-end drive your tracks deserve

About this Revamp

Furthermore, this isn't just a simple port; instead, it is a complete re-edition. I have meticulously re-painted and modified every single patch to harness the advanced power of the new Serum engine. Consequently, you get sounds that hit harder, cleaner, and deeper than ever before.

In modern Trance production, the middle-end defines the energy of your track. For this reason, I have handled the heavy lifting for you. I fine-tuned every waveform for maximum stability and utilized updated filter algorithms. Therefore, these 64 patches sit perfectly in a 138-140 BPM mix with minimal external processing.
