Studworth 25
video upload by Peter B
"Join me in the curry chair to look at seven recipes for capacitor scales in studworth 25. The certificate pdf can be had at http://ciat-lonbarde.net/portDOCK/stu.... The instruments themselves may still be available at patch-point. The eutrophic canal was Naturschutzgebiet Euloer Bruch."

RC CIRCUIT BENT 'PHOTON DETECTOR' TURN LIGHT INTO SOUND - EXPERIMENTAL NOISE SYNTH
video upload by ResonanceCircuits
"Transform light sources into soundscapes with the Photon Detector from ResonanceCircuits."
I thought the remote control was interesting.

via Resonance Circuits
"The Photon Detector:
A light-to-sound synthesizer for experimental sound design and sonic exploration.
As ambient light, shadows, or focused beams interact with the photo sensor, the device dynamically transforms these optical fluctuations into a rich tapestry of evolving soundscapes..
From subtle shifts in light creating delicate swells and white noise drifts to abrupt changes generating percussive clicks, glitches and intricate rhythms.
The Photon Dector opens up a vast new realm for foley artistry, generative soundscapes and field recording. Discover the unheard sonic potential of your environment - explore, experiment and test everything!
Power on/off switch
'on' led indicator

tone control
3.5mm stereo mini jack output
powered by 1 x 9v battery - not supplied"

GENE GX
video upload by LA Priest
"GENE GX is an all analog, polyphonic synthesizer with a class A audio path.
Inspired by the earliest polysynths of the 1970s, it is multi-timbral and completely touch sensitive.
With 7 tuneable keys on each of its 3 touch sensitive keyboards (6 main keys plus one higher octave key on the right and also a silent filter envelope trigger key on the left), Gene GX can be tuned to a huge number of standard and microtonal scales using the two independent tuning, modulation and pitch bend sections, allowing you to articulate the pitch and timbre of each group as you play.
The unique all-analog oscillator design allows four different waveform harmonics to be controlled and modulated, creating shifting waveshapes and frequency ranges.
All of this is topped off with a lovely class A transistor ladder filter."

Theremon+ [First Look]
video upload by MoShang
"The Theremon+ is the successor to the kit-built Theremon by Groovesizer. While the original was limited to a single voice, the Theremon+ adds a second wavetable-based voice with an arpeggiator, and a drum section with various styles and 4 kits. The original was intended exclusively for the DIY market, but the plan is to sell the Theremon+ fully built. We hope to offer the Theremon+ at the same price point as the original (around US$130) - would you back it on Kickstarter? https://groovesizer.com"

"Breeze Block is a magnetic granular synthesizer and MIDI CC controller. The surface of the instrument is divided into eight zones that are each independently sensitive to permanent magnetic fields. By interacting with the instrument using a neodymium magnet, you can capture audio which is split into grains and manipulated. Different zones and positions on the instrument have different effects on the pitch, density, and character of the granular texture."

Introducing Lore - FM oscillator pair by Crows Electromusic
Press release via Crows Electromusic:



March 26, 2025 - Crows Electromusic, a small synth company from Vancouver, Canada, is thrilled to introduce Lore, a standalone all-analog tool for exploratory sound synthesis, ambient, drone, and noise music. With individual controls for each function, Lore gives direct control of two independent triangle-core oscillators and can be switched to an FM synthesis mode to unlock a wide range of complex tones. The instrument’s unique un-quantized interface is perfect for exploring pure tones, drones, and FM sound textures.
Features:
• 100% analog circuitry
• Two triangle-core oscillators
• Crossfade between triangle and square waves
• One-control-per-function interface
• Fully standalone, just add headphones
• Transparent bioplastic enclosure
• USB powered
• Handmade in Canada
Lore is our second release, building on what we’ve learned making our first product OVUM analog sound explorer. We had two goals in mind during development: first we wanted to make something that could create a harsher and more aggressive sound, and second, we wanted to see how small a synth we could make. On both fronts we think Lore is a success - it measures under 3 x 3 inches, and the FM mode gives you access to a whole range of shimmering, grinding, and metallic sounds. Just like with OVUM, we prioritized immediate control and ease of exploration. No understanding of oscillators, wave shapes, or FM synthesis is required to pick it up and start creating interesting and inspiring sound. We think people of all ages, musical abilities, and experience levels are going to love this instrument.
Lore is available now for $79 CAD / $59 USD.
Crows Electromusic is a small synth company based in Vancouver, Canada. Started by Cory Alder in 2022. Crows’ goal is to develop new hardware instruments that challenge the established ways we interact with sound and music creation. Their first product, OVUM was released in 2023, and their second product Lore is available now.
For more information, please visit Crows’ website at https://crowselectromusic.com or follow us on social media (Instagram, Bluesky) at @crowselectromusic.

VAEMI's Atari Punk Console features a circuit design that operates with two oscillators and the modulation between these oscillators. Based on the "Stepped Tone Generator" circuit developed by Forrest M. Mims III in the early 1980s, this design is one of the significant milestones in electronic music history.
Thanks to the two oscillators, it offers the possibility to select harmonic degrees based on the fundamental frequency. This feature allows users to create melodic arpeggios.

Модулятор звука. Звуковой эффект. Автор - А. Червонский.
video upload by VladimirRadiomay
"Sound effect - sound modulator. A. Chervonsky.
In the video, first the sound from the electric guitar, from 2:45 with the voice, and from 4:12 from the audio player, the voice and the song.
Description from the magazine: "the described device makes it possible to modulate the amplitude and phase of the EMI signal with the audio frequency voltage from the auxiliary generator. The sharp specificity of the resulting musical effect (there is no established name for it) significantly limits its use, but in a number of cases of pop practice it can be quite justified. The frequency of the auxiliary generator can be changed during the game, introducing new colors into the sound of the instrument. In addition, the device has a vibrato generator, which additionally modulates the amplitude of the generator signal, which, in turn, leads to a timbre vibrato of the sound at the EMI output. The device has been tested in operation together with an electric guitar, but it is possible that good results can be obtained with other EMI."
magazine "Radio" No. 4 . 1980. Page 57.
https://archive.radio.ru/web/1980/04/...
--------------------------------------------
(my addition - added a microphone amplifier to the circuit (it also came in handy for amplifying the guitar). The low-frequency generator (vibrato) is of course already outdated and has a small range. I increased the value of resistor R25 by 47-50 kilo-ohms, otherwise vibrato would not work. And I decided to add a variable resistor of 1 mega-ohm, after R12, to adjust the intensity of the effect. Although this does not give much)."
