WMD Skorpion & Wavefolding – Workshop at SchneidersLaden


video upload by SchneidersLaden

"On September 24, 2025, things got wild at SchneidersLaden’s showroom: William from WMD presented the brand-new Skorpion module – a powerful analog wavefolder developed over five years.

With 8-stage wavefolding and a strong vector core, Skorpion offers a direct and engaging way to shape sound without screens or menus. True to WMD’s reputation for quality, this may very well be the last wavefolder you’ll ever need.

The workshop provided a deep dive into the art of wavefolding, modular sound design techniques, and featured a live performance showcasing Skorpion in action.

For everyone interested in exploring wavefolding further – here’s the full recording of the evening."

WMD Cosmic Debris / Skorpion and Clutch – Bristonica 25


video upload by Stromkult

"WMD, in the Eurorack-Buisness since decades, released just some new modules.

Skorpion an 8-stage analog wavefolder, that can simple sounds into Sound architectures, it's such a powerful module, hear yourself!

Clutch is a Hihat Module which brings your grooves to the next level. Hihats are (at least for me) one of the most important elements in techno, so having a dedicated module in your rack just to have hands on control on these is so great. Hear yourself the Module at the Beginning of the Video

Cosmic Debris is a powerful delay and reverb engine built for modular explorers who want more than just echoes. It's an in depth sound design monster for every kind of Time related effects and give you different kinds of effects. A freeze function is also included, sound so good). The whole spec sheet is not released now, so check the WMD-Page in a while for more detailed Infos!

THIS IS NUTS!! // first patch exploration with SKORPION from WMD


video upload by DivKid

"Here's my (literal) first patch exploring the utterly wild wavefolding/shaper reanimator SKORPION from WMD. It takes a simple saw wave and creates a rich wide stereo sound that's reminiscent of chaining larger groups of modules with complex routings.

I'm working on a more fulsome demo video that's coming soon but I wanted to share this and show what I did for me 'right out of the box' as it were.

Skorpion is to be produced and released a little differently, it's open for pre-order directly with WMD now and they're going to produce one batch based on the pre order numbers and that's it. So grab one if you want one. You have until the 8th of October 2025 to pre order."

You can find additional posts with additional details on SKORPION from WMD here.

WMD Skorpion - Demo with DRUMS as the input source


video upload by WMDevices

"Wavefolding is wonderful on waveforms to add and skulpt harmonic content, but we get the question alot, "what about drums". Welp, here is the answer. In this video, we run through Skorpion with different drum sounds one at a time, then send an entire mix bus through it, finding textures, glitches, and other brilliant harmonic oddities. This module is one of a kind, truly.

Preorders close on Oct. 8th, 2025. After that, we build one run. Once it's gone, it's gone. Preorder yours today at WMDevicees.com."

WMD Skorpion - Melodic content demo and jam


video upload by WMDevices

"Skorpion isn’t just for aggressive tones and ripping basslines. In this video, we explore how it excels at melodic, expressive content—adding harmonic movement and subtle dynamics to a down-tempo modular jam.

With carefully tuned modulation and thoughtful CV routing, Skorpion becomes a fluid timbral instrument that complements softer material just as well as it tears through heavy tones.

WMD designs electronic hardware for musicians seeking a balance of precision and exploration. Our quality control is second to none, with service to match."

WMD Skorpion - CV Feedback Experiments


video upload by WMDevices

"WMD Skorpion is an 8-stage analog vector based wavefolder. It is a sound designer's dream with tons of inputs and outputs for the ultimate waveshaping experience. In this video, we explore using the built-in outputs and CV inputs on Skorpion for some feedback based CV modulation, using a VCA to shape the amplitude of the modulation, making it more rhythmix and intentional.

PREORDERS FOR SKORPION CLOSE OCT. 8th. Get your order in at WMDEVICES.com today!

WMD Skorpion Sound Demos


video uploads by WMDevices

"Skorpion is an 8-stage vector based wavefolder module that boasts a huge range of sounds via it's deep, yet intuitive set of controls. In this video, we cut about an hour of jamming and experimentation together into about 8 minutes of sound examples. No talking in this one, just pure sonic exploration and a demonstration of what this module can do with a simple input.

In the intro, we're running a sine wave through Skorpion and add some CV from an envelope into slope to create some rhythm. We add some drums to hear this in context with a drum beat. We then transition into a sine wave as the input signal, then some Saw (with windows) and Swarm Waveforms, experiment with a filter before the Skorpion, and end up back with some drums in different configurations.

Eurorack Jam Case… What Could Go Wrong?!


video upload by Dots

"Join me for another Mini Modular Moments episode as I unveil my brand new studio recording and jamming Eurorack case! In this video, I walk you through every module in my compact modular synth build — from the Frequency Central Product to the Squarp Rample drum sampler — and explain why I chose each one. Then, I power it up for the very first time on camera to see what kind of noise (or magic!) it can make.

Featuring voices, drums, filters, modulation, and a Keystep Pro for control, this case is designed for full jams in a portable format. Expect some happy accidents, a little chaos, and plenty of patching fun.

🎛 Modules Featured:

Frequency Central Product
Knobula Monuatic
Nano Modules ONA
Mutable Instruments Veils
Klavis Quadigy
WMD Carbon Filter
Squarp Instruments Rample
Endorphin.es Cockpit
…and more!

Whether you’re into Eurorack modular synths, studio jam setups, or just curious about how a live performance case can evolve into a studio powerhouse, this one’s for you"

Monotrail Starting with Modular
video upload by Monotrail Tech Talk

1. Getting started with modular - 4 eurorack systems explained
There are many ways to get started with modular, and many reason to be interested in it. There is no single solution, modular is a journey and you have to discover and experience your own. This video is part of a series where I share some thoughts and ideas I wish I could find when I started out. Take or leave whatever you like :)

Timetable:

00:00 – Introduction
02:17 – The Monosynth
06:32 – The Sonic exploration lab
10:26 – The Performance system
15:34 – The Dedicated tool
2. What modules should you buy when starting with modular?
Getting started with eurorack can be confusing. The number of modules available grows ever week. And on top of that, what you need depends on what you want to do with your modular. In this episode in a longer series, I look at a 4-module starter voice as an option.

Timetable:

"Synchrodyne and Synchrodyne Expand, 2 modules and 4 ribbon cables. The expander is from the latest batch before it was discontinued. I painted the front panels with alcohol inks and used a high gloss varnish finish. I color coded the different sections of the module to make it easier for me to understand which jacks and knobs are related. The PLLs are blue, first oscillator is red, second oscillator is yellow, first filter is purple and pink, second filter is yellow, and the compressor is green."
