Ambient with Prophet-10, OP-1 field, and reface CS | Superposition 2026-11-10 by atnr

video upload by atnr

"Ambient music where repeating phrases overlap with reverberant synthesizer performances.

This piece was created with the Prophet-10, OP-1 field, and reface CS.

On the Prophet-10, a slightly modulated synth pad is performed and processed through the blueSky with reverb.

On the OP-1 field, a phrase is played using the built-in ENDLESS sequencer. The MOOD MKII is used to occasionally shift the pitch, while the MICROCOSM adds the MICRO LOOP effect and reverb.

On the reface CS, a single-note phrase is performed using the FM oscillator. The output is processed through the NIGHTSKY with reverb and filtering.

The piece begins with the OP-1 field phrase. The reface CS is then layered over it, followed by a low synth pad from the Prophet-10.

Roland Jupiter 6 + Juno 60 + Friends

video upload by Sebastian Galassi

"Even though I’m very fond of my 1980s digital synthesizers, I have to say that the power of those 'old dinosaurs' is hard to beat ;)
In this instance, I’ve layered a Jupiter-6—which provides an arpeggio—with a Juno-60 playing a pad. They communicate via a Kenton Pro 4. As usual, the Eminent Solina String Ensemble handles the strings, while the beloved Yamaha CS15d plays the melody. Finally, the rhythm section is played by a Roland TR-626, which also provides the clock to trigger the Jupiter-6's arpeggiator."

ANAMORPH - THIS YAMAHA AN1X FREE VST EMULATION IS OUTSTANDING !!

ANAMORPH Analog Physical Modeling Control Synthesizer. Not to be mixed with Isla Electronics' recently revealed VAN1X.

No link or additional details at this point.

Update: word is this emulation vibe coded, required the AN1X ROM, but was abandoned by the developer.

Yamaha AN1x & CS1x Combined Demo

video upload by Pro Synth Network

"The Yamaha AN1x, like many synths of the time, came with a bunch of built-in demo tracks, but unlike other synths, one of the demo tracks was specifically designed to work when the AN1x was connected via MIDI to its slightly older, sample-based sibling, the more affordable, but equally fun CS1x.

I've never tried it out until now, spurred on by Brad's superb VANIX [VAN1x] plugin, coming soon courtesy of ‪@ISLAelectronics‬ [see this post]. So here are the two synths, connected via ‪@CMEPro‬ WIDI (drink! 🍻) under some 90s lighting, sharing a very anachronistic choooooooon!!!

Also featured for eye candy purposes are other Yamaha units of the time, a couple of SU-10 sampling units, an RS7000 and an RM1x, all fed through an 02Rv2 mixer, using no external FX.

No... YOU have a Yamaha problem! 😉"

Announcing: VL Editor for the Yamaha VL1, VL1-m, and VL7 Physical Modeling Synths

"Defective Records Software is happy to announce VL Editor, a new editor supporting version 2 of the Yamaha VL1, VL1-m, and VL7 physical modeling synths, available on both Mac and Windows as both a standalone and as a plugin (VST3, AU and CLAP).

It includes all of the functionality that was available in Yamaha's three original Classic Mac OS editors (Expert, Visual and Analog), including full support for all of the physics parameters that are not accessible from the synths themselves. It's fully bi-directional; edit on either the synth or the software, and the changes are immediately reflected in the other. It also has as several new features like randomization, drag and drop preset rearrangement, element morphing (inspired by Robert Skerjanc's awesome hardware controller), explanatory tooltips (guided by Manny Fernandex's superb VL Tutorial), and many others.

Future support for the VL70-m and the VL soundcards is being considered, as is Linux support. More info: https://defectiverecords.com/vleditor"

"11/5/26 Pasco Scientific 9301 + Rucci 16-step CV Sequencer + Heathkit ID-4101 + Yamaha EM-100 + Alesis MIDIVERB II

The sun was setting and this was the last take, so you can barely see anything, but the Rucci 16-step CV sequencer is driving and modulating the two Pasco Scientific 9301 dual function generators, as well as the Heathkit ID-4101. The Heathkit is panned left, the left 9301 is panned right, and the right 9301 is panned center. There is some spring reverb from the Yamaha EM-100 mixer and some delay from the Alesis MIDIVERB II."

Yamaha DX7 meets Yamaha CS15d again ...

video upload by Sebastian Galassi

"Another draft created using two splendid 1980s synthesizers from Yamaha—one digital, the other analog: the DX7 and the CS15d (the latter dating back to 1979, to be precise). Despite their apparent differences in terms of both appearance and sound, they complement each other perfectly."

INARA Brings Modern Control and Expanded Capabilities to Classic Synthesizers

Press release follows:

Troy, Illinois — November 11, 2026 — Five Lined Engineering, LLC announces INARA, a line of purpose-built MIDI controllers that bring modern capabilities to classic synthesizers.

INARA combines hands-on controls, expanded patch storage, and modern MIDI connectivity for musicians who want to get more from their existing instruments.

Far more than a generalized surface controller, each INARA model is designed specifically for the synthesizer it supports. Features include a customized control surface, real-time MIDI Control Change (CC) control, generously expanded patch storage through virtual cartridges, and USB-MIDI connectivity. Custom firmware enhancements also improve the experience of using vintage instruments; for example, optimizing the Yamaha DX7’s keyboard velocity response.

INARA eliminates the need for drivers, control-surface templates, and manual MIDI message editing: connect it and start playing. For hands-on operation, it features ergonomically spaced, full-size tactile buttons, 45mm long-throw faders, and a large LCD display. Its compact, lightweight design combines solid construction with rubber feet for secure placement on a synthesizer or other equipment.

“Five Lined Engineering is excited to introduce INARA to musicians who are as passionate about their vintage synthesizers as we are, ” said Gary Sommer, Managing Director of Five Lined Engineering. “It is striking how inspiring, accessible, and fun these synthesizers are when partnered with INARA.”

INARA models are available for the Yamaha DX7, Korg DW-8000, and Roland Alpha Juno.

Additional models are planned. For USB-MIDI connectivity, INARA is class-compliant and compatible with operating systems that support class-compliant USB-MIDI devices.

INARA is available immediately in the United States with each model priced at $299 through www.fivelined.com/inara/. Visit www.fivelined.com for more information.

Craig Padilla - SURFACE ASCENT (Live) - MST/Division6, Mattson Mini Modular, MPC ONE, MODX M

video upload by Craig Padilla

"Trick or treat once again with another live performance in the studio! it's also inspired by the spirit of Halloween! And, once again, it's been captured on video by Colleen Padilla.

'Surface Ascent' is a long piece of music in four parts. It was performed in front of a few of my friends, Donny and Romy Oster, and Skip Murphy. Their energy during the performance was inspiring.

This song features heavy use of many synthesizers and effects:
Akai MPC ONE
Yamaha MODX M7
Synthrotek MST & Division 6 Modular with Source Audio Collider
Mattson Mini Modular with Source Audio Nemesis
ARP 2500 Sequencer
Arturia MatrixBrute
Hologram Microcosm
TC Electronics Ditto X4

The Mattson Mini Modular and ARP 2500 Sequencer modules create an underwater sonar-like vibe before the first rhythmic sequence begins.

Huge THANKS to George Mattson for building the MST / Division 6 Modular and Mattson Mini Modular.

This epic song will be available on my new live album 'First Light Over Aurora'. It will be available at www.CraigPadilla.com .

Please consider donating a much appreciated monetary tip to the performer to: PayPal.me/CraigPadillaMusic"
