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."

Waldorf Iridium MK2 Wavetable Synthesizer - Advanced Tutorial with Douglas Moore

video upload by Kraft Music and DSoundman

"Great bundle deals on Waldorf Iridium MK2:
https://kraftmusic.com/collections/wa...

Kraft Music welcomes Douglas Moore from DSoundman to walk us through the enhancements and improvements on the Iridium MK2 by Waldorf.

Waldorf Iridium MK2 is based on the multi-engine design of the original Quantum and Iridium synthesizers, with a fresh design and an improved CPU board allowing for more sample storage and opening a wider world of synthesis capabilities. Increased memory allows for the creation of rich, complex sonic landscapes, while per-note parameter locks (the result of a collaboration with Aphex Twin) provide each of 128 notes up to 16 individual parameter variations. Extra RAM also enables a sixth synthesis method per oscillator using sub-oscillators called "Seeds". Iridium MK2's "Flavour" knob, introduced with Waldorf Protein, adds sonic liveliness via micro-variations in timing, timbre, pitch, and other parameters.

Get more for your money with an exclusive Waldorf Iridium MK2 digital polyphonic synthesizer bundle from Kraft Music. These package deals include the accessories you'll need to get the most out of your new polyphonic synth, all for one low price. If you have any questions, please contact us. Our knowledgeable sales advisors will be happy to assist in choosing the bundle that's right for you!"

The Oberheim Matrix-1000 still sounds amazing today | Classic Analog Synth Demo Track

video upload by RetroSound

"The Oberheim Matrix-1000 Analog Synthesizer played with the Oberheim Xk masterkeyboard controller.

Experience the legendary sound of the Oberheim Matrix-1000 analog synthesizer.
This synthwave demo track by RetroSound showcases warm vintage pads, deep basses, lush textures and classic 80s analog character.

I think, the Oberheim Matrix-1000 is one of the most underrated analog synth modules ever made, featuring authentic Oberheim sound with powerful modulation and rich vintage tones. Perfect for synthwave, ambient, cinematic music and retro electronic production."

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."

Arithmophone Pentatone - New iOS Music App

video upload by Arithmophone

"The Arithmophone Pentatone is a new iOS music app featuring an easy-to-play pentatonic keyboard and a built-in synthesizer."

"Pentatone is available now in the Apple App Store, for iPhones and iPads running iOS 15 or above.

The app is completely free (no in app purchases, no ads or tracking).

Most iOS music apps either give you piano keys or a grid-based interface. Pentatone takes a fresh approach, optimised for the ergonomics of touchscreen devices and inspired by instruments like the kora and mbira. It also has a sophisticated scale selection system that includes all the common pentatonic scale types and unlocks some more unusual ones.

Pentatone features:

An easy-to-play keyboard, split for two handed playing

An original pentatonic scale system with 9 selectable scales, in just intonation or standard tuning

A custom Audiokit-based synth engine (binaural 2x2 operator FM with stereo detune, resonant filter, delay and reverb)

25 preset sounds with macro sliders for tone and ambience

Initial touch and aftertouch response, both polyphonic

User feedback from the public beta:

"this has such a nice design and ui, colors are fresh and remind me of piet mondrian"

"Sounds incredible and can’t wait to use this in my workflow!"

"This is an inspiringly expressive instrument, my friend! Really a joy to interact with."

"Amazing! Love the simple UI and the musical keyboard. Also the sounds are lovely!"

"It’s very fun to play!"

"Looks beautiful!!!"

THE DF-8 & DS-2 RESONANT DRONE

"THE DF-8 & DS-2 RESONANT DRONE

This month we’re celebrating drone music.

In this patch, we combine the DS-2’s oscillators, filters and LFO with the DF-8’s looping envelopes and stereo filters to create a huge, highly resonant drone. Subtle modulation and moving cutoffs add constant movement, while stereo filtering and delay help build a wide, evolving soundscape.

Turn up the delay and drift off into the drone."
