聊一下模块合成器 Bohm:是底鼓也是演奏工作站
video upload by 合成少数派 Synthesis Minority
You can click CC in the player once Meng Qi comes on for subtitles.
"Bohm 的核心设计哲学是“把底鼓做成一个可以更换内核的平台”。不同于别的底鼓模块,是“一个声音,深度可控”;Bohm 是“多个完全不同的合成引擎”,更重要的是,它还带一些 Groovebox 式的生成式功能"
Googlish:
"Let's talk about the Bohm modular synthesizer: It’s both a kick drum module and a performance workstation.
Bohm’s core design philosophy is to create a kick drum module that serves as a platform with swappable "cores." Unlike other kick drum modules—which typically offer "a single sound with deep parameter control"—Bohm features "multiple, entirely distinct synthesis engines." More importantly, it also incorporates generative capabilities reminiscent of a groovebox."

Sounds from Superbooth 2026: Meng Qi Wing Pinger 2.0
video upload by Perfect Circuit
Meng Qi at Perfect Circuit
via Perfect Circuit
"Meng Qi's Wing Pinger 2.0 is a handheld update to their beloved stereo resonant filter instrument, this time with a complete overhaul, but still based around a pair of analog filters. These self-oscillating analog filters with cross-feedback are capable of producing plucked tones, chordal motion, unstable rhythms, and full-on chaotic textures all from the same unstable circuit. Now centered around a robust screen, version 2.0 adds a powerful onboard Strudel-inspired scripting system for composing sequences, modulating parameters, and letting blocks influence each other over time. The Wing Pinger 2.0 is a huge change in the interface, enabling diverse and new creative pathways, remaining centered around the essence of this sought-after instrument: a pair of beautifully resonant analog filters.
Wing Pinger 2.0 Features
Handheld stereo resonant filter instrument
Dual analog filters
Screen interface for parameter control
Onboard scripting language for easy programming
Scriptable feedback system
Production model features milled aluminum enclosure"

Looks like a little handheld radio / walkman with that volume control!

Folktek Mescaline + Passive Operator: Melodic Malfunction
video upload by Infin-D
"The Folktek Mescaline delivers a nice rhythm and melodic drone, and the Error Instruments Passive Operator just gltiches it all up. The Passive Operator is running through the Meng Qi Wingie 2 Stereo Resonator. Vocal samples from the Bastl Wave Bard maybe give the whole thing some...context?
Delay provided by the Korg NTS-1.
Recorded live on the Zoom L6, audio normalized in Audacity.

Meng Qi Wing Pinger + Torso S4 // DAY 7 #jamuary2026
video upload by Dexba
"What a fitting combination of instruments! Love, love, love.
I would have liked to spend more time (and I will) crafting a more intricate performance, but the time of a lunch break clearly wasn't enough.
Still, I love what came out of this jam, and the great polyrhythms that naturally arose.
I hope you'll like it! 🧡"

Unique! Signed "Wingie" by Meng Qi (Discontinued V1) w/ Original Box
Note: links to listings are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this Reverb listing
"Meng Qi Wingie V1- Portable Resonator Synthesizer
Mint in Box. Unit was signed by Meng Qi himself on the back panel (see pictures). V1 has been Discontinued.
Wingie is the little sibling of the Wing Pinger. The portable resonator synthesizer can be supplied with power and new firmwares via USB
connection. The built-in microphone and two headphone outputs invite you to experiment outside the studio. Comes with USB cable, and stickers In Box (will ship inside a second slightly larger box).
Description
Wingie is a handheld stereo resonator with built-in microphones that also doubles as a development board. Its dual onboard microphones allow you to interact and enrich vocals as well as the sonic environment around
you. If you sing to it, Wingie responds with marvelously complex harmonies. Or play it as a percussive instrument and create acoustic
feedback with your speakers. Wingie is small enough you can simply take it along with you and resonate with the world. However you
decide to use it, Wingie can deliver a lush stereo image by just locating the sweet spots. It’s all right there in your hands.
Wingie is equipped with a stereo line input to work with the rest of your arsenal. Plus dual headphone outputs for sharing or creating feedback loops. Whatever equipment you have now, Wingie can give you a whole new
way of hearing it.
There’s a USB-Type C jack for power and convenient data transfer. Wingie can also run on a power bank. To make sure you always have the most up-to-date capabilities, the USB serial chip can be readily updated. Additionally you can use the chip for alternate firmware or your own development projects.
Wingie is really whatever you wish to make of it. Use it as a portable instrument. Or work with other instruments—acoustic or electronic—for aural exploration. All this in an undeniably cute little package that’s called Wingie because it sings with whatever is in the air around you."

OP-1 Field, Wingie2, Prophet-10 & Piano Ambient Resonance | Critical Part 2025-11-12 by atnr
video upload by atnr
"This piece was created using the @teenageengineering OP-1 field, @MengQiMusic Wingie2, @SequentialLLC Prophet-10, and piano. It features piano performances layered over randomly repeating glockenspiel samples enhanced by resonant tones from the Wingie, creating a delicate ambient atmosphere.
On the OP-1 field, glockenspiel sounds are sampled and sequenced using the ENDLESS sequencer. The output is routed through the Wingie2, which adds resonance and harmonic richness.
The @YamahaSynthsOfficial CP-88 piano continuously plays a repeating chord progression, providing a stable foundation for the piece.
The Prophet-10 performs soft synth tones with a slow attack, processed through the @strymon blueSky for reverb, adding depth and texture to the overall sound."

Meng Qi's Live Performance at TAM Club VI, Linz, Austria: Every Performance Has No Turning Back
video upload by 合成少数派 Synthesis Minority
"This is a record of my performance at the TAM Club VI event held at Stadtwerkstatt in Linz, Austria, on May 14, 2025. Linz is a city that attaches great importance to electronic art, having hosted the Linz Electronic Arts Festival since 1979. This May performance will also be included in Linz's database. I didn’t want to leave anything subpar behind. During the performance, I used the first prototype of Skies, as well as Mannequins' Just Friends and Silhouette. The sound in the venue was unexpectedly wonderful, so that I couldn't help laughing several times during the performance... I recently received the recording of this performance and would like to share it with everyone."

Transcript of Meng Qi @ CCOM Digiscore Workshop Lecture: The Complete Design Concept of Horizon
video upload by 合成少数派 Synthesis Minority
"During the Digiscore Workshop at the Central Conservatory of Music, where I was invited by Professor Ken Fields, I engaged in a conversation with everyone about musical scores and instruments. We explored the relationship between musical instruments and people, as well as the dual-natured thinking that Trent and I condensed in our musical instrument work, "Horizon." The students at the Conservatory posed many constructive questions, and I truly enjoyed the intellectual exchange with everyone. Here is the lecture transcript, and I hope it is useful to many others."

Studio Playtime with Mroztronium Grackler + Wingie2
video upload by Robin Rimbaud-Scanner
"A brief little playtime in the studio today, with two wonderfully inspiring and strangely named instruments. I combined the Mroztronium Grackler, which is a standalone chaotic voltage controlled instrument, which can produce sounds that resemble everything from birdsong to peanuts caught in your throat, with the Meng Qi Wingie2, which is a stereo resonator and 'excites' the sound from the Grackler. I'm playing on the keyboard of the Wingie2, whilst manipulating the filter on the Grackler. Nice and simple, but I like to think, rather effective in its modest way."

Cricket, a musical instrument jewelry that can be played
video upload by 合成少数派 Synthesis Minority
"The Cricket is a solar-powered musical instrument jewelry. It chirps in the sun and can be played by shading. The patterns on its front are not only for decoration but also touchable. The three areas control three oscillators respectively. Pressing them will increase the pitch, change the timbre, and speed up the rhythm. There is also a touch point on the back that will interfere with the output and produce noise. A clip can be attached to the back to wear it on clothes or bags. You can also put it in the grass, and you'll feel closer to summer.
We synth players don't hang Labubu on our bags, but the Cricket 🦗🥳"

Telmatronics Groovetube - comparing line-in/output signals
video upload by Telmatronics
"This video shows our completed machine, running second-version pcb.
It is essentially a 2-channel valve pre-amp with plasma tube in the current path. One channel is used for the synth voice, one for line-in.
We've got a good sound putting audio through a Wingie2 resonator before sending to the synth line-in. This boosts certain frequencies of the input, which puts some initial distortion onto the signal.
For these clips the input signal was split before the line-in, and routed into a separate mixer channel to the synth. Turning them up in turn lets you hear what the resonator is doing, and what the synth is."
