Putting synths and drum machines through the MFX Pedal from ALM Busy Circuits

video upload by Tom Churchill

"The MFX Pedal from ALM Busy Circuits is a standalone version of the MFX Eurorack multi-effects module, and it’s designed to work with guitars as well as line-level sources. I’m definitely not a guitarist, but I do have a few synths and drum machines in my studio, so for this video I thought it might be fun to try putting them through it. I don’t go through all 18 programs or demonstrate every parameter, but I pick six of my favourite effects and offer some real-world examples that hopefully show off some of its range. Thanks to ALM for sending it over!"

Elmyra 2 // cLFO // Microcell // Cosmos // Poly 2

video upload by Lesjamusic

"Following Thursday’s fun playing the Elmyra directly, I wanted to try triggering a sequence. I’m using the Polyend Poly 2 to split the midi from Keystep over 4 CV/gate outputs - hence the spaghetti of wires dangling from the big case. Atovproject’s excellent cLFO is modulating various parameters on Elmyra, keeping the drone evolving. Microcell and Cosmos for texture.

Off screen, CXM 1978 and OTO Boum finish things.

"Welcome to 'Will It Ambient?', a new series of videos directly inspired by ‪@collectoremitter‬ 's 'Will it Shoegaze?' series. First up is an easy 'yes!' - the Neutral Labs Elmyra 2 drone synth. I bought this synth today from Elevator Sound, and wanted to get straight to the heart of the face melting.

The Brutal Ambient Synth: Neutral Labs Elmyra 2 Demo

video upload by mylarmelodies

"Elmyra 2 is a hybrid digital/analogue desktop synth/eurorack module suited to making dusty and brutal ambient strings, drones, pads and chords, and in this demo I'm using it to accompany three Moog DFAMs, Mother-32 & Subharmonicon. 90's warp music fell out of this setup. Vibes were had. I had a good time.

Extra stereo reverb was provided by the Universal Audio Golden Reverberator set to Lexicon 224 Hall. The dusty delay is built-in!"

Nonconformist Controllable Crunch // Neutral Labs Elmyra2

video upload by Starsky Carr

"Dirty, crunch, experimental and lo-fi spring to mind once you start playing with this.. It can be more gentle, but its character is definitely happier on dark side (ironic as I got the new white version).

The Elmyra2 from Neutral Labs is a 4 voice wavetable eurorack semi modular synth with a grungy delay, multimode filter and a circuit bending along filter.... what's not to like!

In this I make a few demo tracks exploring different ways to play it.. from simply using the touch pads, to triggering from drums. outputs and a sequencer and playing via CV and Gate from the Keystep as well as using the internal sequencer.

Lots to play with, and hours of meditative pleasure tweaking to perfection.

video upload by substan

"A first test flight with the Neutral Labs Elmyra 2. I´m REALLY blown away by the dark, beautifully textured und distorted sound that comes out of this little box. The built-in sequencer is a significant part of its charm and makes the Elmyra an inspiring playground.

It's a blessing to get send a great device and the only payment for it is to make music with it, which is just inspiring and fun.

Elmyra runs through Valhalla Room.

Ambient doom with the Neutral Labs Elmyra 2 and Walrus Sloër

video upload by Jay Hosking

"Please support my work on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/jayhosking
A live synthesizer jam performed entirely on hardware.

Neutral Labs sent over the Elmyra 2 for free. I was interested to try it because it has some of the spirit and playfulness of the Lyra 8, but much more control over pitch. It's also geared toward overdriven, saturated sounds, which is where my head is at these days. All of that was cool and amazing about the Elmyra, but I particularly fell in love with the sequencer, having four independent sequencer lines with differing lengths for the four voices.

I'll probably never use this thing's wavetables, but the basic oscillator sounds are nice. The filter options are fantastic. I really love the circuit-bending-style chips that change the drive option. And having oscillators that tune to semi-tones? Incredible. I wish all eurorack did that.

Anyway, along with the Walrus Sloër (doing some heavy lifting on pitched reverb), this was an unexpected song that came together quickly thanks to the extensive sequencer. I look forward to pairing this synth with some other simple devices and making some more ambient doom.

Neutral Labs Elmyra 2 - Drone Synthesizer // Demo, Tutorial and Opinions

video upload by Dexba

"SUBTITLES AVAILABLE (in many languages!) I've had the lucky chance to be able to check out the Elmyra 2, by Neutral Labs. It has a very interesting approach to performance and sound building: it looks easy, but it can get way deeper than you think. After playing with it for a long while, I decided to offer you a tour of its functions, plus my (unrequested) opinions, all in this desktop configuration. Since the video was getting pretty long already, even by just covering the basic functions, I decided to keep the eurorack approach for a later time, also because that would have prompted me to give even more (unrequested) opinions, and the possible combinations of modules would have been endless (except for the mandatory huge reverb!). In this video, I used the very good reverb on the Dirtywave M8 Tracker, which was very handy because of its 3.5mm jack and the capability of isolating just the active channel on the cable. I hope you'll find the video useful, in its "overview" part, and I hope the "opinion" part could spark some constructive debate."

Elmyra 2 - 2.2 Firmware Update: Exploring the new features

video upload by Oscillator Sink

"The new 2.2 update for the Elmyra 2 was recently released and it ticked off almost everything I had on my wish-list in terms of new features - so, that's nice! In this video, rather than just reading out the release notes, instead I decided to put together a patch which just happened to make use of all of the new features in the update - almost as if I planned it.

Transparency notice: the Elmyra2 was kindly provided to me by Neutral Labs for free for the purposes of making videos on it. No editorial oversight has been provided to Neutral Labs and no other payment has been received. As always I'm only interested in featuring instruments that I'm genuinely excited about on the channel.
