PlantsSystem-Diminish

video upload by plantssystem

"Precise and organic. PlantsSystem latest track, 'Diminish' is an ambitious work that uses the rough texture of analog equipment from the 70s and 80s to create a futuristic sound image.

The dry and sharp rhythm of the BOSS Dr.55 is impressive for its inorganic hardness while maintaining the precision of a metronome. Layered on top of that is the swell and spread of the sound of the Sequential Prophet-5. The filter changes and modulation movements create gentle ripples in the space. And the Yamaha CS-10 gives the low range a strong outline, firmly supporting the whole.

'Diminish' is not just a retro nostalgia hobby. It combines the rawness of analog equipment with modern architectural beauty to present a soundscape that transcends the time axis. The noise and fluctuations that suddenly appear in the meticulous construction are like the sound of a plant growing picked up by a microphone. As befits the name PlantsSystem, this is a musical experience that shakes up the boundaries between artificial and natural. #dr55 #prophet5 #cs10"

Moog Subharmonicon + Boss DM101 // Analog does it better.

video upload by Dexba

"Moog, Roland: YES, please, more of THIS.
Blablabla limitations, blablabla the future.
I – DON'T – CARE. This sounds so good, it reminds me of the amazing Matriarch, which has the gorgeous delay built in, and that characterful Moog sound. Boy, I miss that keyboard.
Anyway, this is why I fiddle with hardware synthesizers: living these moments of bliss when everything aligns, the chord strikes perfectly and the BBD provide you with that nostalgia of times and places you've never visited. Lovely.
I hope you'll get to experience the same, both here watching this video and in your sonic explorations!"

David Lynch's Synth Gear Up for Auction

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

Apprenlty JULIEN*S auction house is auctioning off David Lynch's belongings.

Among the items you will some of studio equipment including the synths pictured here. It's interesting to see the gear he used. The Roland MKS-70 (JX10/JX-8P) used on Twin Peaks is not listed as I believe it was owned and by Angelo Badalamenti, not Lynch. I included his portable audio recording equipment, not as a synth, but as a possible sample source. Unfortunately the listing does not mention if there are any recordings present in them so keep that in mind if you bid. It would be a shame if they were removed.

Most of the items mention they were "owned and used by David Lynch in his personal recording studio."

Images in this post were captured in the order listed for each listing.

BOSS RV-200 Reverb Demo (no talking) with OB-6 Synth: A budget friendly reverb for live performer

video upload by Limbic Bits

"In this video, we’re diving into the BOSS RV-200 Reverb—a budget-friendly pedal that offers a variety of reverb algorithms with solid overall sound quality. It pairs well with synths and features a user-friendly interface, with just enough controls to make it suitable for live performances.

While it may not have the distinct character of pedals like the Strymon BigSky or the UAFX Golden Reverberator, it’s a reliable choice when you need spatial effects that complement the sound rather than dominate it. This would be my recommendation for those searching for a pedal for live use whenever they need an affordable, easy-to-use option with dependable sound quality."

5/3-5/25 (2 patterns) Simmons SDS6 & SDS1 + DR-55 clone + DigiTech HM4 + EML 200 + (in description)

video upload by Cfpp0

"5/3-5/25 (2 patterns) Simmons SDS6 & SDS1 ('flange snare') + Doctor 55 clone + DeltaLab Effectron II + TAMA DS200 + ElectroComp EML 200 + Ace Tone MP-4 + DigiTech HM4 Harmony Machine + Alesis MIDIVERB II + MXR 136 Dual Limiter + DBX 119 + Peavey 1300

This Simmons SDS6 was dead, but it’s been serviced by The Simmons Guy. It got converted from 220v to 115v with a rebuilt PSU, a cloned reset circuit on a custom PCB, traces rerouted on the dead expansion PCB with new caps and trimmer, new RAM ICs, new batteries, plus a MIDI in mod and, due to a lot of corrosion, plenty of new traces, caps, resistors, diodes, and so on. I’m still working my way through the SDS6 manual, but it’s already been a real pleasure to have such a giant sequencer. It makes the Doepfer Trigger Matrix seem microscopic. Considerable noise from the SDS6 is audible through the (always noisy) Doctor 55 clone. Not sure why. Anyways, the SDS6 is triggering the DR-55, which runs through the DeltaLab Effectron II, overloading the preamp limiter, fully wet, full feedback. In the first pattern, the Effectron II is set to Flange Lo (16ms). And then Double (64ms) in the second pattern. The SDS6 also triggers the SDS1, with a “flange Snare” EPROM and with the auto run feature on, and it’s panned a bit right with reverb from the Alesis MIDIVERB II. The SDS6 also triggers the TAMA DS200, which runs through the Ace Tone MP-4 for saturation and spring reverb. The DR-55 is also running through the Peavey 1300, which is panned left and has a lot of reverb from the MIDIVERB II. I did an overdub where I ran the whole first pattern through the DigiTech HM4 harmonizer, but the detuned copy sounded better when placed early, before the high pitched original. So if you are wondering why you can’t see those detuned notes on the SDS6 matrix, that’s why. You can see those notes being leveled by the MXR 136 limiter in the cutaway shots. The second pattern has drones from the EML 200 synthesizers: one is constant, panned left, and getting louder the whole time; the other is four VCOs through two VCAs, modulated by two different master sine waves, with the EML internal spring reverbs and reverb from the MIDIVERB II."

700 FM System x BOSS ME-50 – How Many People Still Use This Forgotten Classic?

video upload by Gm Xe

"The BOSS ME-50 is one of my favorite effects units — simple, expressive, and still inspiring after all these years.

In this setup, I combine the 700 FM System with the Buchla 208C in a four-voice configuration:

One voices from the 700 go straight into the Auratie (fully wet).

One more pass through the 208C’s LPG .

The 208C main output runs through the ME-50 to shape the core sound.

The other two voices pass through the Auratie

In this patch, I use the ME-50 for distortion, modulated pitch effects, and a spacious delay that blends with the Auratie

This is a cross-era collaboration: vintage guitar effects, FM synthesis, and West Coast analog character blending into one ambient/experimental performance."

"very short video to demo the trigger input mod added to the Boss DR-110.
It enables the drum machine to be played with external gear. Any positive pulse trigger from 1v to 20v would do the trick, you can even trig the sounds manually with a AA battery if you like !"

via this eBay listing

"Portable programmable analog drum machine from the early 80s.

Unit was modded to add trigger inputs so that now you can sequence the 6 sounds and accent with external gear. It uses optocouplers so any positive voltage pulse would trigger the sounds (v-trigger for instance). You could even trig the sound manually with a battery cell !

Unit is in fully working order. it comes with its original carrying case.
It runs on batteries or power adpater (not included). If you want to run it on power supply you'd need to get the boss PSA-120 power supply, other power adapters brings background noises.'

PlantsSystem-Taxi (Full Version)

video upload by plantssystem

"The warmth of analog and the sharp texture of digital intersect in 'Taxi,' a song that depicts a minimalist world woven together by the rich synth textures of the Prophet-5, the tight rhythms of the DR-55, and the unique groove of the SU700. EffecTV is used for the video, visually emphasizing the experimental nature of the song. The simple yet deep soundscape evokes the feeling of wandering through an inorganic city night.

Crossover Beat w/ Rhodes Mark 2, Prophet-10, OP-1 field, Drums & Bass | Ordeal 2025-03-30 by atnr

video upload by atnr

"A piece created using the Rhodes Mark II, Prophet-10, and ‪@teenageengineering‬ OP-1 field. The Rhodes harmonies repeat in sync with the drums and bass, while the melody goes wild through the MOOD MK II.

On the Rhodes Mark II, I perform with a ‪@BOSSinfoglobal‬ CE-5 chorus effect.

I play the intro and interlude on the ‪@SequentialLLC‬ Prophet-10, adjusting the filter during the interlude.

The drums are recorded and reconstructed in a DAW.

The bass is recorded into the DAW through a SANS AMP BASS DRIVER.

On the OP-1 field, I play the melody while manipulating the ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ MOOD MK II CLOCK for pitch shifting. Midway, I adjust the REVERB TIME to create a noisier sound."
