BEFACO's NEW MODULE: IROI - Sneak Peek & Details


video upload by Befacosynth

Press release follows:

"BEFACO's NEW MODULE: IROI

The Oneiroi, in Greek mythology, were dark-winged spirits of the night who emerged to bring dreams and nightmares to mortals. Our ambient synthesizer, Oneiroi, takes its name from them, evoking that shifting, dreamlike realm of sound.

​IROI is derived from 'Oneiroi' and carries that same essence forward, distilling it into something more compact and open to external signals, while preserving its cinematic feel that connects us to the world of dreams and the unknown.

What is IROI?

IROI is a stereo effects module based on the right half of the original Oneiroi. It applies Oneiroi’s sonic character to external sources in a more compact format, while incorporating subtle improvements developed throughout the Oneiroi project. Designed to shape, transform, and immerse sound, Iroi carries forward the dreamlike essence of its predecessor into a dedicated effects processor.

Audio Core: Powered by OWL mk3, featuring 24-bit 48 kHz stereo audio resolution (with 32-bit internal processing) and a full stereo signal path.

Filter: Multimode filter offering low-pass, band-pass, high-pass, and comb filtering, with flexible positioning within the effects chain.

Digital VCA.

Resonator: Three-band resonator with dedicated tune and feedback controls.

Delay: Two-tap echo (delay) with adjustable time and density.

Reverb: Comprehensive reverb effect with macro control over size, filtering, and direction.

Modulation: Various types of self-modulation, offering configurable routing and control over level and speed.

Control Voltage (CV): CV inputs for all primary parameters. Four of these inputs are dynamically assignable to secondary parameters.

Synchronization: External sync input supports clock speeds from 30 BPM to 300 BPM.

Randomization: Powerful randomizer with a flexible mapping system, including undo/redo functionality.

IROI is set to be released on April 30th, 2026 and the launching price will be 275€ (assembled version) and 210€ (DIY Kit).

Find us at Superbooth 2026, in BoothZ180 to see IROI live and take a peek at our upcoming products, we're pretty sure you'll love them."

Mood swinger synthesizer how to use

video upload by errorinstruments paul tas


Mood Swinger — Drone FM Emotion Synthesizer

A voltage-controlled experimental instrument designed to play emotion as sound. The Mood Swinger merges FM drone synthesis with tactile performance controls, letting you sculpt evolving soundscapes that shift between love, pain, happiness, and anger.

At the center is a gamepad-inspired joystick interface, allowing expressive, real-time modulation of complex drone layers. A built-in light-sensitive sensor reacts to environmental changes, adding organic movement and unpredictability to the sound.

The system generates cross-modulated frequencies and evolving textures, blending harmonic warmth with harsh dissonance. Push the controls far enough, and the gate opens, unleashing intense, unstable sonic states.

Features:

* FM-based drone engine with deep modulation
* Emotional state switching: Pain / Happy / Anger / Love
* Joystick controller for expressive performance
* Light sensor for reactive sound modulation
* Full CV control (Eurorack compatible)
* Works as both standalone instrument and modular system component
* Integrates with sequencers, LFOs, and external CV sources

This isn’t just a synthesizer—it’s a performance instrument for emotional exploration, where tension and harmony continuously collide.

"As electronic musicians, we’ve used every sequencer under the sun. We loved the speed of some and the randomness of others, but we hated having to choose. So, we built PROGRAMM.

It’s a creative playground that bridges the gap between human performance and algorithmic generation. Whether you’re meticulously stepping in/playing a melody or using real-time randomization to find new textures, PROGRAMM keeps up with your brain. And for those moments where you accidentally forgot to hit record before playing the best sequence you’ve ever written? We built an always-ready recall function to save your soul (and your track)

Total Versatility: Step it in, play it in, or let the machine take the lead.

Controlled Chaos: Dive into deep generative tools and real-time randomization that stay musical.

Are you bilingual? Programm is: MIDI and/or CV Programm loves both!

Be hands-on (and quickly) - with its 6 orange knobs you can tweak the main parameters per step with speed and without menu diving.

PROGRAMM is built for the sketch and the deep dive. Fast enough for your first idea, deep enough to take you the whole way."

Introducing Drum Farm by Knobula


video upload by knobula

Drum Farm is a Eurorack module dedicated to the cultivation and un-ethical treatment of drum sounds. It combines real-time drum synthesis, effect processes and sampling into a hands-on, multi-engine instrument, delivering up to four simultaneous voices and three effects at once."

Press release follows:


Knobula cultivates new ground in drum voice design with Drum Farm performance-focused Eurorack module

LONDON, UK: advanced modular synthesiser developer Knobula is poised to cultivate new ground with its upcoming Drum Farm Eurorack module — merging synthesis, sampling, and real-time effects into a single, hands-on instrument built for fast, intuitive sound design, empowering users to relentlessly sculpt, process, sample, and re-sample sounds grown from its wide range of virtual analogue and physically modelled drum and effects algorithms — readily representing the latest addition to its growing lineup of control-centric instruments embodying a no-screen, no-preset philosophy, as of April 21…

As an appropriate appellation, Drum Farm was inspired by Knobula Technical Director Jason Mayo’s background in computer animation, where vast ‘render farms’ generated thousands of realistic images with minimal human input; as a performance-focused Eurorack drum module occupying 24HP of rack space, it is organised into three core sections: a Drum Synth with 16 virtual analogue and physically modelled drum algorithms, an Effects engine offering 16 different realtime processes, and a digital Sampler with up to three playback voices — capturing the combined output of everything a creative user could conceivably do with it. By bringing all the essential building blocks together, Drum Farm allows for the creation of original sounds quickly and intuitively — whether shaping punchy kicks, layered snares, tuned percussion loops, cymbals, CV/Gate-controlled samples, or physically modelled drum membranes.

Moreover, Drum Farm’s onboard sampler can run automatically in the background, sampling into one of 16 sequential audio buffers. Ultimately, users can capture the drum synthesiser on its own or record hybrid combinations of synthesis, effects, and samples, which can themselves be resampled into richly layered percussion structures or loops. Additionally, an EXT (external) input opens the gate to the world of field recording or sampling directly from elsewhere in a Eurorack system and a row of CV and trigger inputs allows further influence to any assignable control, including the ability to switch samples, drum algorithms, or effect types on the fly.

Duly designed for fast, intuitive sound creation, Drum Farm positively encourages an immediate, iterative workflow — simply select a drum model, sculpt it, process it live through the effects, sample the result, blend it with another model, and repeat. As a result, complex and evolving sounds quickly emerge.

Embodying Knobula’s philosophy of promoting experimentation and tactile control reminiscent of classic real-world instruments, Drum Farm features no screens and no sub-menus. Instead, it is a performance-focused module that rewards hands-on exploration, invites happy accidents, and provides a fertile environment for sounds to flourish and grow.

It is possible to create fully hands-free generative patches, self-building sample libraries, or access to round-robin multi-samples since all controls are CV- or trigger-assignable via five CV/Gate inputs. Sensibly, sounds can be saved to a microSD card alongside a complete snapshot of the module itself, whereby buffers, knob positions, samples, and settings are stored together as a session — with up to 32 sessions per card — allowing users to return to their work, exactly where they left off. It is fair to say, therefore, that Drum Farm is always ready for both studio experimentation and live recall.

Thanks to Knobula cultivating new ground with Drum Synth, the relentless creation of drum parts in Eurorack has never been more immediate or rewarding. Attendees at London Synth & Pedal Expo 2026 may recognise the farm-themed product tease, with ‘alien cow abduction’ subsequently forming the core of Drum Farm’s promotional campaign video.

Shipping scheduled for June 2026, Drum Farm will be available to purchase — priced at £449.00 GBP (including VAT), with a choice of two faceplate colourways on offer — directly through the Knobula shop (https://www.knobula.com/shop), as well as via Knobula’s growing global network of resellers.

FM Complex - A Wavetable for Plinky


video upload by Nathan Plante Synths

"This is the FM Complex wavetable for Plinky. I give you a quick tour of the wavetable plus a few sound design ideas.

@MakingSoundMachines writes: This set was generated with an FM generator. The one used here was two-operator, but with individual waveforms for both and a number of interesting offset and drive options. In this set, the waves were designed to have stronger individual characteristics, like pulses, edges and intervals within the wave. The resulting sounds are interesting to use in achord context, as they bring their own harmonic material to the table. Some of the waveforms tend to sound glassy, others overtone-rich like C64 variants of square waveforms.

You can find all of the wavetables on the Plinky homepage here:
https://plinkysynth.com/wavetables/"

Introducing Plinky 12 Blocks, Chords and Toadstep


video upload by Making Sound Machines

Additional videos below.

"We are super excited to introduce 3 new instruments today! Plinky 12 is a family of expressive polyphonic touch synthesizers. The three instruments are built around a shared synth engine. Designed by mmalex, it evokes the unmistakable melancholic sounds of the original Plinky. https://plinky12.com

Each instrument is designed in collaboration with a different synth maker, lending each panel a distinct playability and unique character.

Plinky 12 Chords is a harmonic inspiration machine. It lets you improvise melodies and chords, with expressive control over voicings, progressions, and immediate musical play. Created by Making Sound Machines, Chords is the panel for finding beautiful harmonic movement quickly.

Plinky 12 Toadstep is a 4-track step sequencer built for super funky riffs, experimental self-generative melodies, and good ol' Acid. Created by Toadstool Tech, the designer behind the Ectocore Eurorack module, Toadstep is fun, immediate and easy to jam with!

Plinky 12 Blocks is an open panel built for experimentation, with monome-grid compatibility, Plinky style touch synthesis, and a browser-based coding environment just a click away. While it comes with a fully playable design out of the gate, creator mmalex invites you to build your own adventure with this panel. If you can imagine it, you can make it!

In this video, Enrica and Roland from Making Sound Machines explore the three new Plinky 12 instruments: Blocks, Chords and Toadstep from left to right.

The track builds on a repeating loop created with the built-in sequencer on Plinky 12 Toadstep. The short sequence uses rhythmic step repeats, track step length and animated synth parameters to create an ostinato that keeps sonically evolving over the length of the track.

As the piece continues, Roland plays a progression of harmonies from the rainbow chord palette on Plinky 12 Chords, before launching a sequence that reharmonizes the loop heard from Toadstep. Enrica joins in playing sparkling arpeggios with her fingertips on Plinky 12 Blocks, the surface with the sunset colour-fade print.

As the track progresses, Roland plays a melodic line on Chords, then Enrica takes over with a melody on blocks. The Plinky 12 polyphonic play surface reads both play position and pressure of the touch. It enables bends and glides on the horizontal axis, while allowing for discrete arps in the vertical direction.

They end the piece with a tempo transition showcasing the septuplet feature on the internal sequencer."

Animal Factory Dirty Mirror × Korg Monologue // Fuzz Synth Jam (No Talking)


video upload by Animal Factory Amplification

"Use headphones for this one! Animal Factory Dirty Mirror dual parallel fuzz pedal running a Korg Monologue analog synth — no talking, no post-processing, just raw tone. This was recorded in one take to bring out how the Dirty Mirror becomes an instrument in itself.

A love letter to shoegaze, noise, and harsh textures, the Dirty Mirror pairs a modified Shin-Ei Superfuzz (the "Burn" channel) with a heavily modded Big Muff Pi (the "Churn" channel), plus a pre-fuzz delay modulated by an internal LFO and envelope follower. Hand-built in Mumbai by Animal Factory Amplification and debuted at Superbooth 2025.

Here it's sculpting the Korg Monologue's aggressive analog voice into fuzzscapes, drones, seasick vibrato, and pitch-shifted square-wave chaos. Recorded dry — no EQ, no reverb, nothing but the pedal and the synth. Drums from an MFB Tanzmaus (not processed)

Animal Factory Dirty Mirror Fuzz on MFB Tanzmaus | Dual Distortion Delay Jam

video upload by Animal Factory Amplification

"Use headphones or speakers with good bass! Dual fuzz chaos meets beat-driven synthesis! Watch the Animal Factory Dirty Mirror transform the MFB Tanzmaus drum machine with creative distortion and delay manipulation. This is pure experimentation—no tutorial, just sonic exploration.

Gear featured:
Animal Factory Dirty Mirror Dual Fuzz Pedal
MFB Tanzmaus Drum Machine

Not just a shoegaze and noise rock machine - the Dirty Mirror is the perfect fuzz for musicians exploring wall-of-fuzz sounds, experimental synthesis, drum machine effects processing, and unconventional gear combinations."



"The Dirty Mirror takes these two behemoths of sonic perversion and adds an extra layer of nasty – using the core circuit of our Coma Reactor Eurorack module.

This three footswitch, 15 knob pedal looks complicated – but it’s not:

The BURN Channel (left side) is based on our Chemical Burn circuit, a nastier FY-6 variant.

The CHURN channel (right side) is based on a heavily modded Big Muff Pi.

There is a short delay circuit before the fuzz circuits.

Both the fuzz circuits can switch between the input sound, 100% wet delayed sound or a blend of wet and dry.

The fuzz circuits are then mixed in parallel into a high-headroom output section.

For added sickness, the delay time can be modified by an envelope follower or LFO.

Choose your filthy reflection – from straight dual parallel fuzz textures, to seasick vibrato to long slow quasi-chorus phasey apocalyptica.

The delay can be used on its own for slapback, chorus and vibrato effects.

Yes, it can get very noisy.
No, you can’t do anything about it - so weep in pain and pleasure, and submit to the swarms of square waves that joyfully fill your room."

SEOK - PLUTNIK – Complex Dual VC-LFO [DEMO no talk]


video upload by SEOK synthesizers

"This is a pure modulation party in a small footprint. The Morph and Merge functions provide access to complex waveforms for a wide range of modulation. Distribute them across your rack via nine outputs.

Each LFO offers fast or slow cycling, with selectable square and triangle shapes. The fast cycles reach into audio territory at around 100 Hz, making it useful for percussive modulation and low-end movement. In slow mode, cycles extend up to ~35 seconds. With external negative CV, this can be pushed into the range of around 10 minutes.

Blend the LFO signals, or any external signals (including audio), in the Morph section. Or use the signals in the relational logic section, Merge, which opens up a wide set of derived waveforms by slicing, combining or rectifying. Pseudo waveshaping.

Designed and hand-built in Sweden."
