video upload by the nightwater

"Fun jam starting out with a Pad from the Access Virus TI. The Roland Juno 60 was playing a nice backing lead melody through the Hologram Microcosm. The Korg Monopoly with a nice top lead through the GFI Specular Tempus analog delay. Bass was the Moog Mother 32 and the drums are the Dave Smith Tempest. Some additional reverb from the Strymon Bigsky MX.

Synth post-rock and ambient | Three songs with delay and reverb

video upload by Jay Hosking

"Please support my work on Patreon: / jayhosking
Three different songs focusing on the inspiration of delay and reverb.

MAS Distribution sent over the GFI Solis Ventus, a delay and reverb pedal, for me to try for free. Take that for what you will.

I've already used the Solis Ventus in other video here, so there was no particular need to create a video focused on it. However, I usually explore new gear by just placing it on the table and seeing what comes out. I thought maybe nothing would come of it, or maybe I'd make a single song. In the end, I kept writing more and more with it, all in different styles and genres. The reverbs in the Solis Ventus are fine, but there's some real weirdness and magic in the delays, and they kept delighting and surprising me. In the end, I decided to share three songs with you from these explorations, although there's some more on my Patreon.

00:00 - Post-rock with synths instead of guitar
03:52 - Pure ambient with Pluto
06:17 - Rock starting with L1

Ultimately, what I hope comes through is that effects aren't something simply to colour or smooth over a sound; effects can be the very thing that inspires the songwriting process. That's what happened in all of these instances, and more.

Gear used:
Arturia Astrolab 37 (keys)
GFI Solis Ventus (delay and reverb)
Squier Bass VI (bass-guitar hybrid)
Line 6 Pod Express Bass (for bass amp sim)
Moog Subsequent 37 (mono synth melody)
Novation AFX Station (mono synth lead)
Modern Sounds Pluto (mini euro synth sandbox)
Donner L1 (mono synth random arp)
Godin Session Custom '59 (guitar)
Strymon Iridium (for guitar amp sim)
Union Tone & Transistor Lab (compressor for guitar)
Electro-Voice RE-20 (vocal mic)
Probably more I'm forgetting

Multi-tracked, mixed in the box (except the Pluto song, which was live to stereo out, with EQ, compression, and limiting on the master).

Simple Synth-Pop Crossover Session | Nobi 2026-01-19 by atnr

video upload by atnr

"This piece was created using ‪@KORG_INC‬ microKORG S, ‪@teenageengineering‬ OP- field, and NTS-1, forming a simple synth-pop crossover track.

On the microKORG S, melodies are performed while switching between different patches. The output is processed with reverb via ‪@strymon‬ blueSky.

The rhythm is handled by the OP-1 field, while the bass is played by the ‪@KORG_INC‬ NTS-1. Both are triggered via MIDI sent from Ableton Live.

Although it does not appear in the video, the Nord Lead is used to play harmonic parts, with reverb applied through ‪@gfisys‬ Specular Tempus."

UDO Super 6 & Juno 60

video upload by the nightwater

"Quick jam sending a sequence out to the UDO Super 6 and using the Juno 60 for the arp at the end. Moog Mother 32 on bass, Dave Smith Tempest on drums, GFi Specular Tempus & Strymon Bigsky Mx on effects."

Gentle Synth Layers and Delayed Piano | Weaver’s Shadow 2026-01-06 by atnr

video upload by atnr

"This piece was created using the ‪@SequentialLLC‬ Prophet-10, ‪@MoogSynthesizers‬ Moog One, ‪@NordKeyboards‬ Nord Lead, ‪@YamahaSynthsOfficial‬ CP-88, and CBX-K1XG.
It is a composition where gentle synthesizer tones are layered with delay-soaked piano sounds.

On the Prophet-10, slow-attack synth pads are performed and processed with reverb and filtering using the ‪@strymon‬ NIGHTSKY.

The CP-88 is used to play piano with its built-in delay and reverb.

On the CBX-K1XG, string sounds are performed and processed through ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ LOST+FOUND, adding reverb and delay.

The Moog One plays soft, low-attack synth pads with a generous amount of reverb applied via its master effects.

The Nord Lead provides additional synth pad layers, processed with reverb using the ‪@gfisys‬ Specular Tempus.

As the layered synthesizer sounds gradually overlap and fade away, the piano weaves through the space, filling the gaps between them."

UDO Super 6 Melodic Electronic IDM Song

Ambient session with Field Recording in Tokyo and Moog One : Road of umber 2025-10-17 by atnr

video upload by atnr

"A piece created with ‪@MoogSynthesizers‬ Moog One, ‪@NordKeyboards‬ Nord Lead, and field recordings from the streets of Tokyo — an ambient electronica work where simple, steady performances unfold amid the city’s diverse sounds.

The Moog One performs the harmony, while the Nord Lead plays the melody, processed with deep reverb using the ‪@gfisys‬ Specular Tempus.

The field recordings were captured with an iPhone, then edited in a DAW and processed with reverb, bit reduction, and delay effects."

Minimal Electronic w/ Prophet-10, Moog One, : Arcadia 2025-10-16 by atnr

video upload by atnr

"A piece created with ‪@SequentialLLC‬ Prophet-10, ‪@MoogSynthesizers‬ Moog One, ‪@NordKeyboards‬ Nord Lead, and ‪@YamahaSynthsOfficial‬ CP-88 — a work of minimal music built from overlapping sequenced phrases that gradually evolve in tone and texture.

All synthesizers are played via MIDI sequences from Ableton Live.

On the Prophet-10, the filter cutoff and resonance are manually adjusted, with the output processed through the ‪@strymon‬ blueSky for reverb.

The Moog One’s EG Amount and waveform Mix parameters are manipulated during playback.

The Nord Lead is processed through the ‪@gfisys‬ Specular Tempus for rich reverb.

At the end of the piece, a deep reverb is added across the entire mix using ‪@ValhallaDSP‬ Valhalla Shimmer in the DAW."

Dystopian Space Ambient (GR1-Kalimba)

video upload by Christian's Sonic Spaces

"This is a dystopian space ambient, featuring a GR-1 granular synthesizer from Tasty Chips Electronics for soundscapes, generated from my own sound samples. In addition a Kalimba running through a DigiTech Genesis 3 were used for the solo plays, a Stylophone Theremine were used for the radio-like background tweet, the Dimmed Light Devices Radio Module for another radio-noise and the Spitfire Audio LABS for the deep bass

I used for the recording the following effects devices: DigiTech Genesis 3, Gamechanger Audio Motor Pedal, Boss Slicer SL2, Hologram Microcosm, Pigtronix Echolution² Deluxe and a GFI System Specular Reverb². Depending on the recorded track some FX are deactivated.

The signal went through a Presonus StudioLive 16.0.2 into the PC via USB for recording. To create the complete song I recorded consecutively several stereo tracks. The final song was then mastered with a bit EQ and compression on some tracks and some limiting on the master track using iZotope Ozone. The picture in the video I created with Midjourney."

Minimal Ambient Music with TENORI-ON | Fragmented Star 2025-07-30 by atnr

video upload by atnr

"A piece for YAMAHA TENORI-ON, wavestick, and ‪@NordKeyboards‬ Nord Lead. Minimal phrases scattered by delay blend with synth textures into a minimal ambient soundscape.

On the TENORI-ON, I switch blocks to morph the phrase. It’s routed through ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ MOOD MK II for delay, pitch-shifting, and occasional micro-loops.

The wavestick is pitch-controlled by using the ‪@KORG_INC‬ SQ-1 in STEP JUMP mode as a CV keyboard. Its output runs into ‪@strymon‬ NIGHTSKY for reverb and delay.

The Nord Lead plays the harmony, with delay from ‪@gfisys‬ Specular Tempus."
