Introducing Aline - Compositional Hardware Step Sequencer by TATO Audio


video upload by TATO


via Perfect Circuit

"Combine real-time performance with compositional polish using Aline from Tato Audio, a flexible sixteen-channel sequencer with a variety of different controls for crafting interesting sequences in moments. It uses what's called "Engines" to create these sequences; there are a variety of different Engines, but each one can be divided into two types: Imperative and Parametric. These Engines can be sequenced in tandem with each other using sequencer channels to create new and interesting kinds of sequences, which can be crafted manually by inputting values, or performed using the onboard keyboard. Imperative Engines functions akin to more standard forms of sequencing, directly defining notes, their length, velocity, etc. On the other hand, Parametric Engines center around generative forms of sequencing, allowing you to define a set of parameters and generate phrases based on those values. These sequences can be edited after-the-fact to affect their parameters and structure, or even adjust a note's pitch in real-time along with the scale your sequence is in—this gives you a lot of freedom for evolving your sequences on the fly.

Unlike most sequencers, each of the sixteen channels can be used to sequence a variety of different parameters using Engines, and those individually sequenced parameters can directly interact with each other in groups to create complex phrases that evolve and change over time. Each sequencer channel can be set to different lengths, giving you instant access to complex polyrhythmic parameter modulation for intriguing results. Bring Euclidean rhythms into your sequences, arpeggiate your chords, generate lead lines and chord progressions in an instant, and more using the variety of available Engines.

Blend external MIDI data directly into your sequences using the spectrum of available inputs and outputs; receive clock directly from a host computer using the onboard USB-C port, or integrate your external gear using the TRS 3.5mm MIDI I/O jacks. Bring the flexibility of the Aline right to your Eurorack system using the provided 3.5mm CV jacks, including a clock I/O, and two channels of Pitch, Gate, and Velocity outputs. If you're looking for a new method of creating sequences for your performance or compositions, Aline from Tato Audio is a versatile toolbox full of features for helping you craft novel and exciting sequences.

ALINE FEATURES

16-channel performance sequencer
8 different Engines for generative and standard forms of sequencing
Engines are interactable with each other for complex results
Sequence Saving and Recall
Onboard keyboard for real-time note input
Modular connectivity via 3.5mm CV
MIDI via USB-C and 3.5mm TRS I/O"

Gary Numan Visits the Moogseum



via The Bob Moog Foundation

"Are 'Friends' Electric"?
In our case, they certainly are!

The Bob Moog Foundation was thrilled to host legendary synthwave pioneer Gary Numan at the Moogseum for a recent private tour. Gary was in town for an incredible show at the Orange Peel in downtown Asheville, NC, and was inspired to check out our interactive museum filled with one-of-a-kind exhibits.

Gary Numan, famous for 1980s synth-pop hits like "Cars," "Are 'Friends' Electric," "We Are Glass," and "Metal," has a long history with synthesizers, including the Minimoog and, perhaps especially, the Polymoog. Chances are, if you're familiar with the model 280a Polymoog's "Vox Humana" preset, you heard it on a Gary Numan track!

Gary's visit included a perusal of our re-creation of Bob Moog's workbench and our historical timeline interactivities. You, too, can immerse yourself in synthesizer history and the professional and personal sides of Bob Moog at the Moogseum. You certainly don't have to be a rock star to get yourself advance entry to one of the world's coolest museums...

Exploration Situation


video upload by Memetune Studio

"Here I have set up an exploration situation, whereby I can mess about with various settings on the Buchla 200 while it's playing a semi-random patch

I'm using the 208 Easel module for initial sound generation, which goes to the 296 Spectral Processor, then out to two places: the even output goes to a mixer input, and the odd out goes to the 288 Time Domain Processor, then into mixer input 2. This goes out to the 289 Defect Processor top section, which has Maxlord's Lexi-like (224) reverb EPROM fitted. It's a great reverb! And you can CV various parameters. Joy!"

Strumming on ATRIUM: Keyboarder wants to be Guitarist #whimsicalraps


video upload by Pete Midi

"Whimsical Raps Atrium implements a very special way to play a synthesizer. In combination with the special sound engine it's fun to discover a new world behind the classical synthesizer universe. In this jam I explore the possibilities of the strum touch plate and the chord/scale settings with a distorted guitar like sound. Note that no dedicated guitar effects like overdrive or distortion were used, just a reverb (Eventide Blackhole) and a standard delay (Ableton). The backing track I made with the IK Multimedia Modo Bass and Drum plugins."

Sequential FOURM vs Prophet 5


video upload by Starsky Carr

"Is the Sequential FOURM effectively a "Prophet 4"? In this deep-dive comparison, I put Sequential’s compact powerhouse up against the legendary Prophet 5 to see how closely it recreates that iconic vintage DNA.

While the FORUM shares a strikingly intuitive Prophet-style interface—complete with dual oscillators, a resonant low-pass filter, and a dedicated polymod section—it also brings modern innovations to the table that the original Prophet simply can’t match.

We’ll explore the sonic character of the FORUM’s SSI chips, which act as modern recreations of the warm, fuzzy SSM chips found in the original Prophet 5 Rev 1 and Rev 2. By recreating classic factory patches side-by-side, we reveal the subtle differences in envelope behavior and modulation flexibility between these two analog beasts.

🎹 What’s Covered:
• The "Prophet 4" Factor: Comparing the interface, layout, and "familiar" feel of both synths.
• SSI vs. SSM vs. Curtis: Breaking down the filter and oscillator chips that define their warmth and grit.
• Modern Upgrades: Exploring the FORUM’s Poly Aftertouch, built-in arpeggiator, and digital clock sync.
• The Feedback Circuit: A demo of the FORUM's unique feedback loop that adds "MiniMoog-style" grit and prevents bass loss at high resonance—something the Prophet 5 famously struggles with.
• Patch Recreation: A side-by-side listening test of 8 classic patches to hear the real-world sonic differences.

hichord + m8.


video upload by hijaq.

"since the beginning of the year i’ve been slowly learning how to use the m8. it’s my new favorite little guy, but i still feel like i barely know what i’m doing. this is a really simple little song using the hichord as an external instrument with some touchscreen effects. there is no post-processing on this audio. still haven’t figured out how to make led screens look good on camera lol.

i have a few videos saved up so i can post weekly for the next little while. expect more m8 later, i’ll be back to traveling once it warms up so it’s coming with me ;3

all my music is free to use. liking the video or subscribing to the channel helps me make more stuff. thanks love u."

"Here's another demo of the PM Foundations Variable Filter Bank. This time, there's no talking, just knob turning and sound. I wanted to see what sort of vowel sounds I could get. I'm using one bank, one EG for modulating the filter, one EG for the amplitude, and a bit of the unfiltered signal mixed in. When my hand disappears, it's fooling with the filter EG."

"Ondioline are becoming extremely rare even in France where they were hand-crafted during the 40's to 60's This one is in VERY good condition AND is a magic pleasure to play- Nothing except original Ondes Martenot can provide such a feeling and so organic sounds ! Tuning is stable (A440 on all 4 octave for each key) This particular model has the great and very efficient improvement : Sub OSC for very loud sub harmonics if needed ! it has been fully serviced from September to December 2023 by very competent technician who spent around 50 hours to do the huge work needed for a very nice AND playable Ondioline (this tech knows the Ondioline as he serviced in the past over 10 units) He has done a very meticulous and respectful work (all electric wires have been changed, new components when necessary, PSU serviced, ground connection, all keyboard connectors cleaned for a good contact, and completely level keyboard...HUGE work !!) It certainly might be improved for a perfect step level for a very demanding musician but this one is definitly playable. So no returns accepted"

"The Ballista Blast is a compact hybrid synthesizer voice built to hit hard, move fast, and cover a serious amount of ground in just 12hp.

It blends digital sound engines with a proper analog processing chain, so you can go from squelchy basslines to glassy textures, from smooth harmonic tones to wild, chaotic mayhem, without being stuck with a single ammunition type.

To keep things alive, the Ballista Blast includes a built-in envelope, an assignable random source, and a velocity input, all routable to nearly any parameter, so even the simplest patch can feel animated and performance-ready.

Because good shots deserve a save button, Ballista Blast stores 256 presets, with Select Bus support for quick recall in a system built for action.

Don Buchla’s electronic instruments can be understood as musical tools and as environments for exploration. They allow performers to play in a physical and expressive way, yet they also invite a method of working that resembles research into the behavior of voltage and timbre.
Buchla did not follow the conventions of keyboard based instruments. Instead he created systems in which sound could be shaped through touch sensitive controls, complex modulation, and freely arranged signal paths. As a result, each patch becomes both a performance setup and a place to investigate how tones, noise sources, control voltages and modulation can interact within an electronic space."

Building a Serge BESTIA III panel with Serge Eurorack


video upload by Cinematic Laboratory

"I am aware my Serge series is a bit of a niche in eurorack, but I feel it shouldn't be. They may seem complicated, or maybe too simple with the minimal grid panels and the lack of leds. Maybe even eh.. underwhelming compared to the competition. Also, many Serge videos focus on the raw voltage paths, so many of them just scream, tick and growl. This video is no exception. However, if you truly want to know what modular synthesis is about to enjoy absolute voltage freedom (a challenge by itself) a Serge system can teach you a LOT about the gear you already have - even when you never get to own single Serge module. As always, I am not trying to sell you anything, I am not an influencer and I no longer care (too much) about the latest hype modules anymore unless it blows me away. This is now an educational channel. It always was. And it's my duty - and privilege - to try and show you why Serge changed the way I patch. If you don't know what you're missing, you won't miss it. And if none of this appeals to you, that's also a valuable 'lession'. Your personal experience is all that matters - and the music you love most.
I am still a beginner, with Serge you may always know nothing between your previous and next patch. But if you're looking for magic, there's a lot of magic hiding behind those modest panels."

spectral pressure chamber - a thermo-dynamic simulation as a multi band compressor - au/vst for mac


video upload by copenhagennoiselab

"This is the first demo of the Spectral Pressure Chamber - a multi band compressor, that uses a thermo dynamic simulation as the analysis layer. A spectral analysis of the incoming audio splits it into energy for three chambers. The energy leaks. The chambers get over saturized with pressure. The stiffness of the walls decreases. The entropy increases.

While being able to work like a regular multiband compressor, it doesn't always act in the same controlled way. Sometimes it is sweet, sometimes it is full of artifacts. And it is insanely relaxing to watch the simulation visualized in the plugin in realtime.

It will be available at unusable.ai sometime in mid-april."

NE555 Counterless sequencer - 3: Radio buttons, transpose function, final assembly, and a demo video


video upload by organfairy

"The demo is in 3 parts: Manual mode 4:15, Sync mode 9:46, and external mode 14:07

'Radio buttons' is an expression used for a row of buttons where a button stays down when you press it. You press another button and the first one will pop up again while the other button stays down.
It is possible to make such a device with simple pushbutttons and a few logic gates instead of the complicated (and expensive) mechanical locking switches. This is what I explore in the beginning of this video - and it is actually exploring since I haven't used the concept before so I didn't know if it would actually work. I do know that the old Moog Taurus bass synthesizer used a similar idea for its preset buttons.

The music is also a kind of exploration project since I decided for the first time to (over)use the portamento function on my Elka X-30 organ in an arrangement. Apart from the organ I also use my Roland JV-35 for some of the parts"

Human voice or synth? | Birth of a Song #02


video upload by Deep Forest

"Today, I’m using the Haken Continuum to gently shape a voice that seems to come from nowhere…inspired by an eastern-flavored piano melody.Then I enhance it with harmonies played on the C15.Everything begins to merge, to breathe together.Something is happening…Is the magic starting to appear?"

Foltek Mescaline and POM 400 Part 2: Will it Techno?


video upload by Infin-D

"The patch here is basically the same as the last video, but I increased the tempo on the Mescaline trigger sequencer, tightened up the envelopes on the POM 400, and routed some modulation from the POM sample & hold to the Mescaline percussion voices. The sawtooth oscillator on the POM once again provides a dissonant, chirpy counterpoint.

All audio from the Mescaline is routed through the POM, gets some compression and reverb from the Zoom MS70 cdr+, and delay from the Korg NTS-1.

Recorded live on the Zoom L6, audio normalized in Audacity."

Foltek Mescaline and POM 400: Melodic Modular Magic

video upload by Infin-D

"The Folktek Mescaline lives up to its name, it reliably takes me to magical, trippy places. It's biggest weakness is the 'Channel' module, which generates rich polyphonic tones, but lacks envelope control, so basically it's a melodic drone. Enter the Teenage Engineering POM 400, with its dual envelope generators and VCA's. Now I can route the Mescaline voices through it, and triggered by its sequencer clock I can get nice snappy, plucky melodies- modular magic.

The Mescaline melodies and percussion are accompanied by the POM saw wave oscillator, outgoing audio gets some compression and reverb from the Zoom MS70 cdr+, and delay from the Korg NTS-1.

Recorded live on the Zoom L6, audio normalized in Audacity.
