"Amiteque FM-01 — Hardware FM Synthesizer Module

The Amiteque FM-01 is a modern hardware FM synthesizer module built around the original Yamaha YM2164 (OPP) FM synthesis chip, the same sound engine used in the Yamaha FB-01.

Unlike software emulations, the FM-01 generates its sound using a genuine Yamaha hardware FM chip.

The FM-01 combines the characteristic sound of classic 4-operator Yamaha FM synthesis with a modern standalone design and straightforward front-panel operation.

Main features:
• Original Yamaha YM2164 (OPP) hardware FM synthesis chip
• 4-operator FM synthesis
• 8-voice polyphony
• Multitimbral operation planned
• Front-panel voice and setup controls
• 16×1 LCD display
• MIDI IN / OUT / THRU
• SysEx support
• Stereo 6.3 mm audio outputs
• External 9 V DC power supply
• Designed and developed in Canada

This demo features the Amiteque FM-01 together with the Amiteque AR-110 analog drum synthesizer and other studio instruments.

FM-01 is currently under development.

New EMW S-8000 Sample Synthesizer

TEST SOUNDS - O SINTETIZADOR MAIS COMPLETO QUE JÁ TOQUEI.S-8000. BY TIAGO MALLEN ‪@emwsynthesizers‬
video upload by Tiago Mallen

"The EMW S-8000 is an 8-voice polyphonic sample-based synthesizer with stereo audio, multimode filtering, envelopes, modulation, effects, and extensive sound-shaping capabilities. It also comes with a large built-in sample library, ready to explore right out of the box."

via EMW

Explore a new world of sampling with the power and flexibility of modern technology.

The S-8000 combines a compact sample player, synthesizer and effects processor in a single instrument, allowing you to create complete instruments from WAV files using single samples or multi-samples. With pitch, gain, Root Key, start point and loop controls, the S-8000 gives you everything you need to shape and play your own samples.

Its powerful synthesis section features a resonant VCF with dedicated envelope, VCA with ADSR and LFO with multiple waveforms, along with Velocity, Mod Wheel and Aftertouch modulation. A wide range of effects, including Chorus, Phaser, Delay, Reverb, Bloom and Stereo Spread, further expands its sonic possibilities.

Samples are stored on a microSD card, making it easy to build and organize large sound libraries. The S-8000 also includes MIDI IN/THRU, a color graphic display and high-quality stereo audio output, with many synthesis, performance and effects parameters available for external control via MIDI CC.

The S-8000 also comes with a growing library of samples organized by instrument and equipment. EMW regularly expands this collection with new sounds and updates, allowing the S-8000 to continuously grow with new instruments and sonic possibilities.

S-8000 — powerful sampling and synthesis in a compact instrument.

PlantsSystem-GothCosole5

video upload by plantssystem

"plantssystem presents a new generative noise piece built with Atari Goth Console, Hikari Instruments Duos, and the KOSMOS generative system.

This setup combines three independent layers of instability:

- Atari Goth Console providing dual‑oscillator metallic noise
- Duos injecting audio‑rate FM and random CV into both oscillators
- KOSMOS generating motion‑based control signals that drive the entire patch

The Atari unit is pushed into continuous self‑oscillation by Duos’ strong CV, while KOSMOS supplies evolving gate and modulation patterns.

As a result, the system produces self‑running glitch textures, shifting metallic bursts, and unpredictable FM artifacts that never repeat.

It’s a small generative ecosystem where noise, motion, and CV interference create a constantly mutating sonic structure."

Lifeforms SV-1 Mini / Eurorack In the Works

via Pittsburgh Modular Confluence

"Update on the Lifeforms SV-1 Mini. We sharpened our pencils and did all the math. Retail will be $599. That is $200 less than the original SV-1! Production SHOULD be finished by mid December and they SHOULD be shipping to buyers mid-January. All great news. So I want feedback on preorders. Should we take preorders? When should they start? The first run will be 300 units. Thought?"

"We will have production test units the middle of September. They will have the production panels and case. And that is what would be demoed for the preorders."

Pittsburgh Modular Lifeforms SV-2
Lifeforms SV-2 from Pittsburgh Modular is a duophonic analog semi-modular keyboard synthesizer that honors classic East Coast subtractive architecture while packing a punch of flavorful twists afforded by modern technology. A full-blown revamp of the SV-1, it features updates to nearly every aspect of the instrument: new oscillator core, classic PGH filters updated with new character modes and overdrive stages, new spring reverb, new response curves and range modes on the ADSR envelopes, a custom 37-key keyboard with pitch-bend and mod wheels, and a redesigned interface with eighty-four patch points along the top. Moreover, a 24hp Eurorack expansion bay with three power headers sits alongside them, so external modules of your choosing can be dropped into the signal path at any point.

Click CC in the player controls for subtitles.

"We are delighted to announce Synterra, VAEMI’s new instrument, which many of you have been waiting for. We are truly excited.

Synterra is a unique device designed as a more comprehensive instrument than similar equipment created to date, capable of interacting with organic objects, living organisms, and different surfaces in its surroundings.

Synterra can use changes in the magnetic and electrical fields around it, liquid or solid organic materials, fruits, plants, fungi, trees, light, and the touch-sensitive area on its surface, allowing your own resistance to become part of the music and the patch.

Synterra also determines its initial position during startup by using the magnetic field of its environment as a reference. This allows the device to position itself according to its surroundings each time it is powered on and begin processing incoming signals based on this initial reference.

In addition to these features, the device offers 8 different scale options. Synterra converts signals received from living organisms or other sources into data. It then processes this data through probability and quantizer structures, creating an algorithmic arrangement that generates different notes at different times. In this way, the device establishes a generative synthesis structure within itself.

Synterra features 9 different synth presets. These presets include a variety of synthesis characters based on subtractive synthesis, wavetable, resonator, Karplus–Strong, drums, and noise.

The device can also be used practically without being connected to any living organism, as light and your own resistance can be incorporated into the circuit. In addition, a much wider variety of sensors can be added to the system through the clip cables and the additional sensor input.

Synterra can be powered by either batteries or USB. Battery operation allows you to use the device comfortably on nature walks, in outdoor spaces, and in creative environments outside the studio.

The onboard potentiometers allow you to adjust the output level of the internal sounds, as well as the amount and sensitivity values. This enables you to use the device comfortably across a broader range of applications and receive signals at more suitable levels from different living organisms or organic sources.
