Modular Dub Techno Sounds AMAZING

video upload by EZBOT

"There is something about Dub Techno that I just can't get enough of. Maybe it's the echoing chords and atmospheres, or maybe it's the clean simplicity of the drum programming. Whatever it is modular synthesizers seem to do it the best. The advantage of modular is the fact that we can have so many AAA effects and voices in a single compact case. Today I show you what that can sound like and discuss why it works in this particular 7U 104hp arrangement. Let's make some tunes! Today's featured module is the XAOC Odessa, an additive oscillator with great hands on control."

Minimal Ambient with Piano, Tape Loop, and Synth Pads | Memorial Delay 2026-05-27 by atnr

video upload by atnr

"A minimal ambient piece where piano sounds, tape loops, and synth pads overlap.

This work is created with ‪@teenageengineering‬ OP-1 field, ‪@YamahaSynthsOfficial‬ CS01, and tape loops.

On the OP-1 field, bit reduction is applied with the TERMINAL effect to a piano loop performed on the Sampler. Additional piano phrases are played by hand and layered into the piece.

The tape loop uses a one-minute endless tape. A pre-recorded piano performance is played back while pitch shifting and micro loops are layered through the ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ MOOD MKII.

On the CS01, sounds with long attack and release settings are performed. Filtering and reverb through the ‪@strymon‬ NIGHTSKY create a synth pad-like texture."

Electronica with Game Boy, OP-1, OP-1 field, and TENORI-ON | White Things 2026-05-22 by atnr

video upload by atnr

"An electronica piece created with Game Boy, ‪@teenageengineering‬ OP-1, OP-1 field, and ‪@YamahaSynthsOfficial‬ TENORI-ON.

The melody on the Game Boy is played using LSDj and processed with pitch shifting and reverb through the ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ MOOD MKII.

On the OP-1 field, harmony is created and looped using voice samples loaded into the Sampler.

On the OP-1, a bassline is looped using the ENDLESS sequencer. FM synth parameters are occasionally adjusted during the performance. Reverb is added through the ‪@strymon‬ blueSky.

On the TENORI-ON, rhythm patterns are played back. It is synchronized with the OP-1 field via USB MIDI using the KENTON MIDI USB HOST. During the performance, patterns are added and the loop range is changed."

TR-1000 + Tonverk + TB-03 + EP-136 K.O. SIDEKICK + TIMELINE: Smooth Jungle jam

video upload by Freaky Tweaky

"I played around with the EP-136 again today.

While the punch-in FX requires a bit of practice to switch between modes, it's great to be able to operate it with just one finger in the often hectic world of Dawless Jam. Once you get used to it, you can even create your preferred nuances by adjusting the pressure you apply."

Minimal Ambient with Lo-Fi Tape Piano | Ink Stain 2026-05-19 by atnr

video upload by atnr

"A minimal ambient piece featuring resonant lo-fi tape loop piano.

This work is created with Ambient Ø, OP-1 field, and tape loops.

On Ambient Ø, sequence phrases with built-in delay are played in a random order.

On the OP-1 field, a steel pan-like sound is looped using the ENDLESS sequencer. The output is processed with reverb and filtering through the NIGHTSKY.

On the tape loop, a one-minute piano performance is recorded and played back. The signal is processed through the TIMELINE with delay, and the feedback intensity is varied."

Turning the Perkons HD-01 Into a Drone Synth

video upload by Mark Cee

"Drone sounds never really appealed to me until I started studying textures. Over time I became drawn to the idea — and to the tools used to compose this way. What I didn't realize is that I've had a very capable drone synth right under my nose for the last 3 years.
The Perkons HD-01 is usually known as a drum machine, but each voice is so much more which makes it great for sustained, evolving textures. I tuned each voice and sent it all through my Meris Mercury X for reverb. I couldn't help adding a few notes from the OP-1 Field on top. After that I just jammed and was reminded how the simplicity of an instrument like this never grows old. It's been my buddy since the day it was released and still brings me a lot of joy to this day."

Making a GlitchCore Jam with Pikocore + AW noisemaker + EP136 Sidekick

"Just testing the new mixer from Teenage Engineering, the EP-136 Sidekick with this combo, one of my favorites lately, the Pikocore and the AW noisemaker. Great duo to make this kind of f#cked up glitch core thing. Noise ad nauseam.

TE OP-XY SOFT GLITCHES AND TOUCH DESIGNER NOISE

"Having the luxury of choosing between different tool is so incredible - BUT it makes it hard to divide up the available time!
Because investing time to try and thoroughly learn one thing is incredibly rewarding. How to choose? (This might be relevant even more right after Superbooth 26)
This is some Touchdesigner and some OP-XY."

Teenage Engineering Introduces the K.O.–SIDEKICK

video upload by teenage engineering

"the plan was to build a mixer for the K.O. II. but it became more of an effect-box with a built-in sequencer. quite cool actually. see it as a dj mixer with a 2-bar looping effects-automator, or whatever you wanna call it. the perfect companion for live-remixing your beats. making them even more you. so... a mixer, an effect box, a sequencer. we call it the K.O.–SIDEKICK.
