#NAMM 2026: Chordcat - this cat can elevate your chord progressions

video upload by CatSynth TV

"We get a tour of the Chordcat. In addition to featuring "cat" in its name, this eight-track groovebox has a large library of chord progressions, and the ability to predict/suggest follow-on chords to your current harmony in a palette from which the composer can then choose. It has built-in sounds as well as the ability to export MIDI to DAWs and other software for further development of compositions.

"#funk #jazz #rhodes #nord #moog #arturia #korg #hohner
Here's my latest concoction from the studio featuring the Rhodes EK10 MKIII, ‪@NordKeyboards‬ Stage 4, ‪@KorgOfficial‬ miniKORG 700fs, ‪@ArturiaOfficial‬ Polybrute, Hohner Clavinet E7 and ‪@MoogSynthesizers‬ Minitaur. The Rhodes is going through the ‪@rhodesmusic‬ V-Pan plugin during most of the tune, with the solo section using a Line 6 Echo Park and ElectroHarmonix C0ckfight wah-wah pedal. The Nord is using "Swiss Lead" from J3PO's Nord Stage patches ‪@iamj3po‬ . The Clav is going through the Electroharmonix C0ckfight pedal as well. I programmed all drums and used Addictive Drums 2.

Anubis - Amiga version

video upload by MIDI IN

"The music here was captured directly from the back of the Amiga. For the video, I had trouble with capturing the monitor output and composite looked terrible, so I pointed a camera at the little telly and it seems fine.

The .mod file (actually .med) should play on a variety of players but your mileage may vary. It'll sound best using Octamed Player. It sounds good to me in Hippo, but not so good in Eagle (distorted, for reasons I don't understand). It also plays on modern computers in players such as VLC, but it does seem that that's not respecting the proper volume attenuations that I've set for each instrument.

New Filter Design Experiment!

video upload by gotharman

"ONLY AUDIO IN LEFT CHANNEL!
When I discontinued Urano for the first time, I was stupid and selling my own Urano. Last weekend I managed to finish a new Urano for myself :)
After playing with it for a week, I realized how much I love its dual filter with drive, and I decided to try to engineer this design a bit further.

This test design has lot of character and LPF, BPF and allpass modes.
I hope that you will enjoy :)"

MATRIX VCF & Voltage Control - Creating presets with fixed voltages

video upload by AJH Synth Official

"Here I'm using Pressure Points to select different sounds/settings on the Matrix VCF - this filter has full CV control of all functions, including the selection of all 16 different filter types (Mode). Because the Matrix has such a huge range of filter sounds, it is very useful to be able to recall them instantly using a fixed-voltage controller or sequencer.
I'm also feeding it 2 VCOs and noise initially, but later replacing the raw sawtooth waves with the same saw processed by the WAVE SWARM - this is a sawtooth animator, creating 12 additional faux saws from 1 or 2 incoming oscillators to create a fat 'super saw' effect.

Video & Performance by @DreamsOfWires

The AJH SYNTH Eurorack modular range consists of high-end modules, all hand-made in the UK, most of which are based on classic, vintage designs, authentically recreating the circuitry of much sought-after analogue instruments and technologies of the past, whilst greatly expanding them, and bringing them to modern Eurorack levels of convenience, limitless flexibility, and reliability.

Serum Uplifting Basslines (Official Serum 2 Revamp) by NatLife
NatLife originally created the Uplifting Basslines series as an essential toolkit for Trance producers. Now, this iconic collection returns with a total sonic overhaul specifically for Serum 2. Get the professional middle-end drive your tracks deserve

About this Revamp

Furthermore, this isn't just a simple port; instead, it is a complete re-edition. I have meticulously re-painted and modified every single patch to harness the advanced power of the new Serum engine. Consequently, you get sounds that hit harder, cleaner, and deeper than ever before.

In modern Trance production, the middle-end defines the energy of your track. For this reason, I have handled the heavy lifting for you. I fine-tuned every waveform for maximum stability and utilized updated filter algorithms. Therefore, these 64 patches sit perfectly in a 138-140 BPM mix with minimal external processing.

GreyScale-Ceramo | GreyScale - Phase1

video upload by plantssystem

"For this release, the unpredictable chaotic noise generated by Hikari Instruments Duos has been thoroughly sampled and deconstructed using the glitch processor VST Utsbox.
The raw, untamed electrical signals from the Duos are precisely fragmented by the Utsbox, transforming them into hard rhythms and textures, recording the process. Enjoy a thrilling sonic experience where the randomness of analog collide with the sharpness of glitch audio."

MAKEN0ISE Announces New Universal Skiff System, MultiWave MIDI Inlet Module and More!

video upload by MAKEN0ISE

http://www.makenoisemusic.com


Press release follows:

Make Noise is proud to announce: New Universal Skiff System, MultiWave MIDI Inlet Module, N.U.S.S Bundle and 2-Zone Skiff! More information below!

The New Universal Skiff System music synthesizer is a small system devoted to multi-channel modular synthesis, using control voltages to create poliphonic sound events. The MultiWAVE provides eight dual wavetable oscillators, the PoliMATHS provides eight complex function generators, and a pair of QXG modules combine for eight channels of low pass gate with stereo mix animation. Together, these three modules enable poliphonic patching from a simple set of controls. In addition to the 8 channels of Polimaths for modulation, the MultiMod creates eight time-shifted variants of a single control signal, for even deeper modulation capabilities within the New Universal Skiff System. QPAS provides Multi-Mode Multi-Peak Stereo Filtering, and the XOH provides a final stereo mix and line-level or headphone outputs for monitoring and/or performance. The system also includes a USB-C input that can be used for Activation of MultiWAVE channels via MIDI or MPE signals from a USB MIDI host (such as a computer running a DAW or MIDI sequencer).
The New Universal Synthesizer System modules come together in a unified system!
Voltage controlled eight channel dual wavetable oscillator: MultiWAVE
Voltage controlled eight channel complex function generator: PoliMATHS

2-Zone Skiff
In 2009, Tony designed the first Skiff to complement the vertically oriented Doepfer P6 cases available at the time by providing an ergonomic enclosure for our René and Pressure Points touch controllers. These early skiffs were shallow, handcrafted wood designs. In 2015, a revised aluminum 3U Make Noise Skiff was released. This new design had enough depth to fit a wide range of modules, providing a smart way to build a small modular synthesizer.

Now, the Skiff has been updated again, this time to meet the more demanding power standards of today, with the 2-Zone Bus Board providing nearly double the power of its predecessor, plus the multi-zone design making it easy to isolate noise-susceptible or noise-causing modules from each other. The low-profile power headers are shrouded for easy and efficient module installation.
As before, the Skiff’s powder-coated aluminum construction is extremely durable. The clean, simple lines and matte black color place visual emphasis where the action is; the patch the artist has created.
Ships ready to use. Just add modules, patch cables, and inspiration.

GS Music - Bree 6 - Maybe one Single Oscillator, but can sound huge!

video upload by Scott McAuley Sounds

"Patches will be available at https://www.orano.co.uk/shop or http://www.synthsounds.co.uk

*all sounds except drums are from Bree6*

One of the most common comments I see online about the ‪@GSMusicArg‬ bree6 is "is it worth buying, it only has one Oscillator, How big can one oscillator sound?" - My reply is... BIG!

Hopefully this short clip will let you hear how powerful the Bree6 actually is!

it's fat, it has character, it's fun to program, it does not disappoint!

Enjoy.
