video upload by discoDSP
https://www.discodsp.com/retromulator/
"New Commodore 64 SID 6581/8580 core — cycle-accurate emulation via reSID with 3-voice polyphony, oldest-voice stealing, high-quality resampling, and a full 50 Hz macro playback engine driving wavetable, pulsetable, filtertable and speedtable per voice and MIDI control of cutoff (CC 74), resonance (CC 71), pulse width (CC 75), vibrato (CC 1) and pitch bend.
Fixed DX7 master tuning offset — A4 now stays at 440 Hz on cleared battery RAM boot.
Fixed resampler stale rate on synth swap — switching to a synth with a different native rate.
Fixed OpenWurli tremolo depth/swing curve being non-monotonic at high settings.
Fixed OpenWurli noteOff not clamping to the valid MIDI range, which could leave out-of-range notes unreleasable."

Filter Anime by Max for Cats
video upload by max forcats
"Max for Cats crafts Software Instruments, Effects, MIDI devices, Sound Design and Samples for Ableton Live."
via max forcats
"An animated 8-band resonant filter bank inspired by the classic Moog MuRF, reimagined for Max for Live. Rhythmic pattern morphing, stereo motion, analog-style PWM sweep modulation, and dynamic envelope response transform any input into evolving spectral movement — from subtle animated filtering to deeply expressive rhythmic textures.
The device combines a playable pattern engine with touch-responsive filter animation, per-band drive, analog drift, and performance-oriented controls. Designed as both a creative sound shaper and a musical modulation instrument, it turns static audio into living motion with character, depth, and groove."

Native Instruments Introduces Komplete 26
video upload by Native Instruments
"Get everything you need to take your music from first idea to finished master, including instruments, effects, and sounds trusted by the pros. Komplete 26 gives you synths, sampled instruments, drums, sound design tools, and studio effects – all in one complete music production bundle.
Whether you're composing, producing, or designing sound, Komplete gives you the tools to follow your ideas wherever they lead."
Press release follows:

Berlin, May 05, 2026 – Native Instruments today released Komplete 26 — everything a music producer needs to take a first idea to a finished, release-ready track. With over 190 premium instruments, professional mixing tools from iZotope and Brainworx, and more than 180,000 sounds, it's the most definitive music production collection NI has ever made.
Trusted by the producers behind the records you know Komplete is used by millions of producers, composers, and musicians every month — from bedroom studios to Grammy-winning sessions. It's the instrument collection behind some of the most iconic tracks you know, and the ones you're about to make.
"I use Komplete in every single session. It lets me stay focused on the music instead of the tools, and whether I'm writing or tweaking, it's a fast way for me to transform my idea to something that feels finished." — Butch Vig (Nirvana, Smashing Pumpkins, Sonic Youth)
“Komplete has been part of my production journey since day one. I know I can open it and get exactly what I need, every time.” — Nick Hook (Run The Jewels, Hudson Mohawke)
"Komplete is a must-have for me in my studio. As someone who is always blending genres and pushing the edges of sound design, the versatility of Komplete allows me to have an entire sonic world at my fingertips at all times." — Malibu Babie (Megan Thee Stallion, Shania Twain, Sia)
New additions: sounds for every style and stage Newly added is the legendary semi-modular synth, Absynth 6, known for its evolving, otherworldly tones. Also included are Noire and Claire – sampled from rare grand pianos – and the ethereal vocal soundscapes of Moments: Vocal Clouds.

*NEW* Faderpunk — It Does MIDI Too!
video upload by Starsky Carr
"If you've been sleeping on the Faderpunk thinking it's just a fader bank, think again.
Most people see the Faderpunk from ATOV Projects and assume it's just another CV controller for Eurorack. It's not. This thing is a deep, flexible CV and MIDI controller — and after several months of hands-on use, I'm finally giving it a proper in-depth review.
In this video I dig into what makes the Faderpunk genuinely special: its app-based system. Rather than being locked into one function, you load different apps onto the hardware via an online configurator, effectively turning it into multiple different CV and MIDI modules in one compact unit.
I walk through a couple of the more complex apps: FP Grids (Mutable Instruments-style drum pattern generation), and the multi-channel sequencer.
You'll see it in action controlling the Roland CR-78 via MIDI CC (including live kick drum tuning for basslines), the Roland Galaxias for parameter and effects control, the Dreadbox Erebus via CV, the Dreadbox Nyx via MIDI, and the Vermoina DRM1 drum machine.
The sequencer alone — four independent tracks, each with variable step length, gate length, octave range, and rate — is something else. And with 16 save slots for recalling different setups, it's genuinely gig-ready."

Synapase Audio Dune 3 Atmospheric Motion Presets. Sound Demo
video upload by Anton Anru
"Drifted Elements is a bank of 50 atmospheric presets for Synapse Audio Dune 3, focused on abstract textures, evolving layers and spatial sound design. The bank is built around movement and depth, with sounds that slowly change over time.
🌊 The soundset includes: 12 Pads, 13 Strings, 13 Textures, and 12 Drones.
📦 The download link: https://antonanru.sellfy.store/p/dune...
👤 The author of the soundset is Ilian.
🫧 The patches range from soft and airy tones to darker and more textured sounds. You’ll find drifting pads, distant strings, layered textures, and deep drones—all designed to add space, atmosphere, and subtle motion without taking over the track.
🎛 ModWheel controls brightness, opening the sound and adding harmonic content, while velocity (key pressure) affects volume, making the presets more expressive and responsive to playing.
💎 The soundset is suitable for ambient, cinematic, experimental electronic, IDM, as well as film, game, and visual sound design where atmosphere and space are important.
💡 Ensure that you are using the latest software version.
To add presets to the collection, open the plugin Browser, click Menu in the upper left corner, then select Import Folder, and specify the folder on your computer."

There's a New Plugin That Uses Wavetables as Spectral Filters — Wavefield by Fine Increments
video upload by Keith Crosley
"Two new uses for wavetables today — and neither is synthesis. First: smallcircles.net/waveforms, a web tool by KRC Mathwaves user Quentin that renders any audio file as stacked ridgeline plots — instant Peter Saville/Joy Division "Unknown Pleasures" album cover art. (Fun fact: the cover visualizes radio pulses from pulsar CP 1919, originally plotted by Harold Craft Jr. for his 1970 Cornell PhD thesis.) Second: Wavefield from Fine Increments, a brand-new spectral filter plugin by Seth Watson that turns wavetable frames into FFT gain curves — three modes (Magnitude, Spectral IR, Phase Warp), tempo sync, stereo spread, and wavetable import. We also drop Wavefield into a Bitwig delay feedback chain for spectral delay, feature Authentic Soundware's new Space Age Colors library, and close with Liminal Space reverb for that Blade Runner/Lexicon 224 vibe. So grab your spectral filter and hold on to your pulsar for this wavetables-a-go-go episode of your favorite talky synthesizer content show!
─── WHAT YOU'LL LEARN ───
What the smallcircles waveform visualizer does and why wavetables are perfect input
How to export your own ridgeline waveform art as SVG for shirts, posters, and album covers
Why Wavefield's spectral filtering sounds different from EQ or conventional filter automation
How Wavefield's three modes (Magnitude, Spectral IR, Phase Warp) differ — and when to use each
How to drive Wavefield with your own wavetables, including KRC Mathwaves
How to put Wavefield inside a Bitwig delay feedback loop for a spectral delay effect
─── PLUGINS & TOOLS FEATURED ───
