dreadbox Artemis Demo (No Talking) with Presets for Ambient, Electronica and Techno
video upload by Limbic Bits
"dreadbox Artemis – My 2 Cents
Artemis is a polyphonic analog synthesizer with six voices and a comprehensive effects section developed by Sinevibes. Housed in a solid desktop chassis, all potentiometers, faders, and buttons feel great, with just the right amount of resistance. On the rear, you'll find a stereo output, a separate headphone output, plus USB and MIDI connections. It doesn't offer a foot pedal input, but it supports MPE (I still need to try that with my Osmose).
Now to the most important part — the sound. It features that great vintage tone I love so much on other dreadbox devices, largely thanks to its creamy-sounding filters. Both filters offer resonance, and the low-pass filter can be switched between 12dB and 24dB slopes.
But it doesn't stop there: thanks to TZFM and filter FM (yes, noise can be a source here too), it can sound very modern as well, making it great for all sorts of electronic music. Although it offers quite a lot of modulation options, I still found myself wishing for features like key tracking for LFO rate, negative envelope amounts, noise as a modulation source in the menu, or meta-modulations. After reaching out to dreadbox about these features, they told me they are already working on them for a future update and/or will look into them. Based on my past experiences with dreadbox, I’m confident we can expect a nice firmware update for Artemis in the future.
The effects section by Sinevibes is also great — it’s just a shame that there are no external inputs like on the Typhon, as those would have made it a fantastic standalone effects unit as well. You get four effect slots (Lo-Fi/overdrive/shaper, modulation, delay, and reverb), each with several options to further tweak the sound. Here, I would love to see a bit more flexible routing, allowing changes to the effect order. But even without that, the effects section is a great addition that melts perfectly into the internal analog sound engine. I'd only recommend not adding too much, as the effects can quickly become dominant.
TL;DR: dreadbox Artemis is a sweet-spot synth that can also show its teeth when desired. Its intuitive interface and great-sounding effects unit make it an excellent companion for live performances. Definitely a highlight!"

Euclid (Waldorf M + H90 // 0Coast + Timeline // Nymphes + Julianna // TR6S // Hapax)
video upload by 2-Minute Warning
"I am continuing my deeper exploration of the vast possibilities offered by the Hapax 🤩
In this jam I loaded on the Hapax, the "definition files" for the Nymphes and TR-6S, and I have to say that it really opens up the possibilities to easily automate or modulate parameters on the synths (used for example here to modulate the pitch of some drum sounds or to add the noise oscillator of the Nymphes on some notes only etc.)
0:00 - The track starts with the 0-Coast playing a syncopated bass line thanks to the EUCLID MIDI effect of the Hapax, and with the M playing the main RIFF.
0:36 - I then fade in the Nymphes playing the pulsating (thanks to an EUCLID MIDI effect too) detuned CHORDS thru the Julianna analog chorus pedal (adding the wide stereo effect).
0:55 - The drum parts are played by the TR-6S using only the Analog Circuit Behavior engine (i.e. no samples used) for the drum sounds, with its VINYL SIM effect on the master bus squashing the DRUMS! 🤘 Also, I didn't use the TR-6S' sequencer here but the Hapax, in order to be able to swap between different patterns on only one machine (Hapax) + to use the FILL button on the Hapax to add breaks on the DRUM track too + I used 2 LFOs on the Hapax to control parameters on the TR-6S (as the TR-6S only has 1 LFO 😅)
1:40 - Bridge (only M synth)
1:55 - 4 to the floor part
2:38 - Outro
All the transposition are done in real-time on the Hapax (using Track 16)."

Register ®️ (0-Coast + Timeline // Perfourmer + H90 // TR-6S // Nymphes // Squarp sequencer)
video upload by 2-Minute Warning
"I really wanted to make use of a lot of MIDI effects of the Hapax hardware sequencer in this jam! 😃
So nearly all of the sequences you'll here coming from the 0-Coast, Perfourmer and Nymphes, have been recorded with very few notes.
The rhythmic and chords richness are mainly coming from the onboard MIDI effects. Thus:
🎸 BASS (0-Coast):
The track starts with the 0-Coast playing a simple pattern, which gets a bit more complex when I add more PULSES on the EUCLID effect of the Hapax. There's also a RANDOM MIDI effect on this track which from time to time, transposes some notes to 1 or 2 octaves.
🎶 ARP (Perfourmer):
The Perfourmer then gets introduced progressively, sequenced by Track 2 of the Hapax where actually, no notes where recorded! Every note you are hearing are being generated in real-time by the REGISTER MIDI effect. I also used the SCALER effect for the generated notes not to go out of scale 😉
🎹 CHORD STABS (Nymphes):
I used the RANDOM + HARMO + SCALER MIDI effects here to transform the single notes recorded to the cool CHORD STABS!
🥁 DRUMS (TR-6S):
The drum parts are played by the TR-6S using only the Analog Circuit Behavior engine (i.e. no samples used) for the drum sounds. I didn't use the TR-6S' sequencer here but the Hapax, in order to be able to swap between different patterns on only one machine (Hapax)."

Dreadbox Murmux Adept #3 | Winterdagen
video upload by Winterdagen
"Here's another gentle one on the mighty Dreadbox Murmux Adept :-) For this patch I didn't make use of the oscillators as a sound source. I stead I turned up the resonance on the filter and put the tracking to 100%, making the filter basically output a sine wave that tracks the keyboard. I used a very short decay time and low sustain on the envelopes to output a very soft sound, again helping emphasise the lovely layer of noise coming from the effects. I also dialed in a tiny bit of filter FM giving the sound some edge. Some subtle gritty delays from the Strymon El Capistan plugin add a little texture. God I love this synth."
FABuary week 4 Live Stream - Synth bag and Performance case making from myVolts studios from IG Live
video upload by myVolts
"Let myVolts tell you a little bit about their prototyping methods in their FABuary maker month.
We'll make a synth bag/sonic altar and a performance case with an Eurorack component.
Looking at making a USB-C powerboard to power the unit and some passive add-ons like clocks, mults /etc. to keep it interesting."

Dreadbox Murmux Adept #2 | Winterdagen
video upload by Winterdagen
"I love how warm the Dreadbox Murmux Adept sounds. I've had Murmux for a couple of weeks now and I'm still incredibly happy with it. An important test for a synth for me is how it sounds combined with my piano. So this afternoon I recorded this little piece. I think they sound lovely together :-)
ps. apparently I accidentally bumped the right mic forward just before recording this.
Thanks for listening!"

Dreadbox Murmux Adept #1 | Winterdagen
video upload by Winterdagen
"When I went to Synthfest UK a few months ago, I fell completely in love with the Dreadbox Murmux Adept. I tried just about every poly synth I could find out there and this was the one that instantly mesmerized me. However I thought I would never be able to get my hands on one as only 300 units have been made and they'd been long gone. Until last week, when out of the blue one popped up.
I've been head over heels for this thing the past week. I made about 40 patches and wrote 10 new pieces of music on it in a few nights, it is really that inspiring. I'll be posting some of my first explorations on it over the next few weeks and here's the first one.
For this piece I thought it'd be interesting to see if I could get a patch to start out as an ambient pad, morphing into a plucked sound. I made use of the amazing effects on it (BBD + delay), both adding quite some noise to the signal chain. The delay gets noisy at long delay times and I absolutely love the way it sounds. In fact I compressed the sound afterward to make the ever changing noise of the effects more prominent because I love it so much. Murmux can definitely sound clean as well, but I love pushing the effects to get a more noisy signal to create an intimate world of sounds."
