Redshift 6 DCO First Look — Supercritical’s Wild New Analog DCO feature


video upload by FutureMusic.es

"Recorded at Superbooth Berlin 2026, this video takes a closer look at the Supercritical Redshift 6, one of the most original analog synth designs on the show floor. The Redshift 6 is a six-voice desktop synthesizer built around Supercritical’s Demon Core technology, with each voice using a digitally controlled analog oscillator architecture that can generate up to 16 simultaneous analog oscillators per voice.

What makes this instrument stand out is Supercritical’s MDCO concept, or Multiperiod Digitally Controlled Oscillator, which goes beyond the usual idea of a classic DCO by allowing multiple analog waves with pitch and phase control from a single analog oscillator core. In practice, that gives the Redshift 6 a huge sonic range, from vintage-style poly textures and wide supersaw stacks to flanging, phase-based movement, and dense unison sounds across a fully analog dry signal path.

In this Superbooth 2026 video, we explore the synth’s sound, interface, and performance potential, while talking through the features that make it one of the most forward-thinking hybrid-controlled analog instruments available today. With six voices, an analog 4-pole multimode filter, and a design that can evolve through firmware-based engine expansion, the Redshift 6 is aimed at producers and sound designers who want a modern polysynth with a distinctive technical identity.

If you are into advanced synthesis, bold analog tone, and new approaches to oscillator design, this is one of the most interesting synthesizers to watch from Superbooth Berlin 2026."

"Keyboard player and producer Manuele Montesanti performs two tracks from his DriftLab project using the Yamaha YC88 and Reface CS.

The performance features the tracks 'Bump' and 'Bleep', combining expressive keyboard playing with electronic textures and live performance energy.

For this setup, the Yamaha YC88 was also used as the audio interface for the laptop-based rig, while the Reface CS sound used in the performance was loaded via the Yamaha Soundmondo app before the show."

BEAT GEMS - the new book on drum machines...


video upload by Bjooks

"Soon to launch on Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/...

BEAT GEMS is a premium hardcover book from Bjooks that explores this remarkable history through rare and iconic machines, vivid photography, artist stories, technical insight, and the people who turned boxes of circuits into culture. The book explores more than six decades of electronic music history through the drum machines that changed the way music is made, recorded, and performed.

An inspiring and visually rich book for anyone interested in music technology, design, rhythm, and recording culture, this comprehensive work follows the evolution of drum machines from early experiments and preset rhythm companions to programmable icons, studio powerhouses, genre-defining classics, and the hardware revival of recent decades. The project structure already maps that story across eight major stages – from invention and standardization to creative misuse, programmability, studio control, genre definition, and rebirth.

The book presents comprehensive research, writing, editing, photography, and visual development by author Oli Freke and editor Kim Bjørn.

Dirtywave M8 Tracker // Atmospheric First Sketch


video upload by Dexba

"Only good things to say about the M8 Tracker.
I briefly owned the mk1 version (which I still prefer from a purely aesthetic standpoint: it was so cyberpunk!), and I had many plans for it, including a convoluted recording featuring the Wingie 2 outside, but I had to sell it because, as usual, money!
Now we're back with the mk2, which, aesthetic preferences aside, is better in any way: usb-c, battery, structural integrity, comfort in the hands, and I am starting again from zero.
The reverb now sounds way better, I have a tiny bit more experience with trackers, and I've digested hours of tutorials (but I am still scared of using Tables, lol)
It might seem a very basic jam, and it probably is for seasoned users, but I want to treat this channel as a diary for my journey with the various instruments I try, so here is my first sketch!
Recorded with the LOVELY 'Render' feature, which should be almost mandatory on all the digital grooveboxes around (OPXY, I am looking at you...)
Hope you'll like it!"

BUCHLA Ziggy Sound DEMO & Walkthrough — Superbooth 2026


video upload by Hispasonic

"At Superbooth 2026, Buchla unveils Ziggy: their most portable and accessible analog desktop synthesizer to date. Filmed at the Buchla booth in Berlin, this video walks through the instrument's main features and includes a full sound demo.

Ziggy distills the DNA of classic Buchla instruments into a compact, immediately playable format: complex oscillator, modulation oscillator, Cycler (envelope + pulser, à la 208c), lowpass gate and a stereo digital effects section with a brand-new ping pong delay. All modulation routing — normally done with patch cables on a Buchla — is handled through flexible assignments from the panel and the oscilloscope screen.

KEY FEATURES
Fully analog signal path + digital stereo effects True analog bypass (voltage divider) when dry is at zero "Programs" designed as a starting point, not as closed presets Fader quantization to scales (pentatonic minor, etc.) Oscilloscope screen doubles as the programming and mod-assignment display

CONNECTIVITY
USB-C (power + MIDI) plus a second USB-C dedicated to power 3.5 mm TRS Type A MIDI and 5-pin DIN MIDI
Eurorack patch points: gate, modulation, pressure and 1V/oct

Modal Electronics ELEMENT One First Look — New Synthesizer Superbooth 2026


video upload by FutureMusic.es

"At Superbooth Berlin 2026, we had the chance to get hands-on with one of the most talked-about new instruments of the show: the Modal Electronics ELEMENT One. Modal Electronics — the British synthesizer manufacturer behind acclaimed instruments like the Cobalt8 and Argon8 — returns to the spotlight with a bold new concept that pushes the boundaries of what a modern synthesizer can be.

#futuremusic #synthesizer #musicproducer

The ELEMENT One is a brand-new synthesizer platform developed by Modal Electronics, combining advanced wavetable and modal synthesis engines in a sleek, performance-ready hardware format. Designed for both studio producers and live performers, it features a highly expressive interface, deep modulation architecture, and a sound engine capable of producing everything from lush, evolving pads to sharp, cutting leads and complex textural soundscapes.

At Superbooth 2026, we spoke directly with the Modal Electronics team on the show floor, exploring the instrument's key features, its synthesis philosophy, and what makes the ELEMENT One stand apart in an increasingly competitive synthesizer market. We dive into the hands-on controls, the filter section, the effects engine, and the overall build quality that Modal is known for.

Whether you are a synthesizer enthusiast, a professional sound designer, or simply passionate about the future of electronic music hardware, this is essential viewing from one of Europe's most important music technology events.

KOMA Elektronik Monoplex
Melodic Microtonal Sequencer
Berlin-based synth makers KOMA Elektronik reveal Monoplex, a performance-driven Eurorack sequencer built for evolving melodic control. Inspired by the Komplex Sequencer, it distills its hands-on philosophy into a focused, single-channel design packed with features. Patch everything into everything and let the melodies evolve.

Every core parameter can be voltage-controlled, opening the door to endlessly shifting yet fully deterministic sequences. From tight Berlin-school patterns to generative melodic systems, Monoplex encourages experimentation.

At its heart is a significantly expanded quantizer. Beyond chromatic, major, and minor modes, Monoplex allows you to upload your own scales via MIDI SysEx using our browser-based tool. Choose from thousands of microtonal scales or create and audition your own instantly.

A dedicated MIDI-note capture mode lets incoming notes define the active scale on the fly. Microtonal scales can also be played on MIDI Synthesizers via Pitch Bend information.

Compact and hands-on, Monoplex delivers an endless supply of melodies and modulations inside your Eurorack system.
