GrainTone // ambient music with an fm synth and a granular sampler


video upload by Music4screens

"Inspired by great artists like Loscil, this piece mix the dense character of Digitone and the morph feature of Intellijel Multigrain. All processed by Analog Heat +FX.
Multigrain has become a powerhouse in granular synthesis, taking one of the factory samples and playing with the morph slider which is so fun to use. Data-bender was processing the output of Multigrain.
Digitone created those digital drops and the deep and dirty pads.
Nice combo a very satisfying devices!
All recorded in Ableton Live and filmed with an iPhone 16 (cine mode)."

Metropolix Solo Jam with Therapsid, MEGAfm & Meris FX | Hardware Jam


video upload by Bobo makes music

"I put the Metropolix Solo up for sale but wanted to give it some playtime since it’s been a while. Now I’m not so sure I want to let it go… the life of loving music gear can be tough sometimes ๐Ÿ˜…

In this jam I’m using the Metropolix Solo with the Therapsid and the MEGAfm, plus effects from the Meris LVX and Mercury X."

Intellijel Atlantis Modification Guide: How to Give the 'Mod' Slider Finer Controls


video upload by Lido Pigeon

"The Intellijel Atlantis is a truly great synthesizer and one of my all time favourites. However, I've always found it incredibly difficult to dial in a slight vibrato, without using external attenuation. After reaching out to Intellijel, I was guided about how I could possibly go about changing this.

The modification is not a massive one but it does make it much easier to dial in those sounds. It may be possible to get even finer adjustment with a different value resistor (I used a 2k one here) but this one works fine for my needs.

If you're thinking of trying it yourself, it's a fairly easy mod with a very easy soldering job. The only tricky bit was easing off the back panel but as long as you're gentle and take your time it should be fine.

Many thanks to Danjel van Tijn of Intellijel for all his help and assistance with this.

Summon the Darkness - Arp Of Darkness & Seventh Summoner eurorack performanceIMG 5565


video upload by FlatSix Modular

"A one take performance, pairing the Seventh Summoner with the Arp Of Darkness showing how the two used together can turn a small rig into a full featured performance case.

Patch Notes: All clicking duties are handled by Pam’s Pro Workout.

Voice 1 is sequenced by the Seventh Summoner and consists of the vowel patch on Braids through the Ensembles patch on the MFX and then into the retro patch on a Noise Engineering Desmodus Versio with the “MultiVersio” firmware flashed to it. The vowel patch is being modulated by Ebb & LFO patch on the Ornament & Crime running the Phaserville Suite

Voice 2 is a saw wave oscillator from the Disting MK4 processed through a Pittsburgh Modular low pass filter, and being sequenced by Sequence X on an Ornament & Crime module with the Phaserville Suite firmware running.

Voice 3 is being arpeggiated by the Arp Of Darkness, and is made up of a swarm & harm patch on the Neutron Sound Dust of Time running through a ping pong delay on another Disting MK4 by Expert Sleepers.

In-Case Drums are being handled by an Erica Synths Pico Drums module running through A low pass filter on another Disting MK4 and into Data Bender by Qu-Bit for glitching duties.

All outputs run through a Kombucha by WGD for delay send duties and then into a Befaco STMIX for mix down to an Intellijel Headphones output in the 1U row.

Additional drums provided by the K.O. II by Teenage Engineering running my own personal samples."

Ambient ghosts - Vhikk X, 4ms Ensemble and SMR, Elta TSC 12


video upload by Jay Hosking

"Two ambient songs performed live with a eurorack case.

Buy these songs on an album here: https://jayhosking.bandcamp.com/album...

This is why eurorack exists to me. I would never come to these sorts of results through any other workflow or gear, would never stumble on these harmonies or gently cascading notes, would never feel out the song progression on a computer or even with a more traditional hardware setup. There are many things eurorack doesn't do as well, but moments like this make me realize why it's so special.

Please go give the album a spin.

Three voices: Forge TME Vhikk X, 4ms Ensemble, 4ms SMR
Control surface: Elta TSC 12
Effects: Intellijel FX 1U, Strymon Magneto, Noise Engineering Versio, Happy Nerding FX Aid XL
Modulation: ALM Pamela's Pro Workout
Mixing: Intellijel Mixer 1U, Befaco STMix

Thanks for listening.

Multigrain Sound Pack: Intellijel HQ Sounds


video upload by Intellijel

"Welcome to our first Sound Pack for Multigrain - Intellijel HQ Sounds.

Download the Intellijel HQ Sound Pack now:
https://intellijel.com/go/intellijel-...

Back in March (2025), we were finishing work on Multigrain - getting it ready for launch in April. In the search for factory content, we decided to literally use our own factory... for content.

Armed with a couple of mic's and a field recorder, we set about recording every day sounds here at the office. Unfortunately, those sounds never got packaged in time for the release.

Fast forward to August - we've now revived this Sound Pack for you to add to your Multigrain. Hope you enjoy it!

Notes on the Kick drum in patch two:
Mod clock out from Metropolix (/4) gates the Kick
Sound path is VCO 1U → SVF 1U → Dual VCA 1U → Stereo Mix 1U
Tangrams shapes VCO pitch, SVF frequency and VCA amplitude"

Intellijel Introduces MEMS Mic: 2HP Microphone Module


video upload by Intellijel

"Introducing MEMS Mic - a 2HP Microphone Module for Eurorack. Bring outside sounds into your system with a tiny omni mic component hidden behind the panel. Record, sample, process, or even use audio as a modulation source.

In this video we do a quick tour of MEMS Mic with some patch ideas to try."

"What’s MEMS? MEMS Microphones are constructed with a Micro-Electro-Mechanical System (aka MEMS) component, placed on a printed circuit board and protected by a mechanical cover. They are extremely small, and can be found in many modern electronic devices e.g. phones, tablets, cameras etc. Despite their compact size, they have a very flat response across a large frequency range (~ 6hz to 20kHz.) which makes them excellent for musical applications."

"I bought a Move. Here's a quick overview of how I used it with my modular to build this track • Endogenous - dark ambient ritual psychedel...

TLDR: The Move is great. Works really well using the Intellijel MIDI 1U via USB to sync the modular to the Move and send a channel of pitch, gate & velocity.

PlayFader PlayMates - Intellijel Atlantix, Roland Aira S-1, Algoriddim DJAY Pro, Ableton Live & Link


video upload by Play All Day

"PlayFader is made in Cyprus and I’ve just relocated back to Cyprus permanently after 30 years away. I really miss the place and I’m so happy to be home.

At the same time as arriving, the amazing @caroline_myvolts introduced me to Dim, head honcho at @synthesizergr and he wanted to stock PlayFader. This means so much to me, to have a Cypriot-made electronic music device being sold in Athens, Greece ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡พ❤️๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ท

So… PlayFader is now available in @synthesizergr

I wanted to do something special to celebrate this ๐Ÿซ 

I wanted to make a full length performance for Dim and celebrate the best of modern Greek dj’s and producers while showcasing PlayFader as the expressive and creative instrument that it is. Especially in one of my favourite contexts, as a live sequencer that you can use to perform while dj’ing. I’m after all more of a dj than a producer. And this is my happy place where I absolutely fucking love to use PlayFader ๐Ÿ‘Š

Dim pointed me in the direction of @echonomist_music and I instantly found this track that I fell in love with. It’s about homecoming and joy… ๐Ÿ’›

What you see in this video is only the 2nd take, totally improvising over the entirety of the track “Happiest of all memorial days”.

It would have been the 1st take but I forgot to plug the audio into the camera ๐Ÿ˜‚

There are some slightly less perfect moments, but I was absolutely in my flow state and enjoyed every second of playing!
And that’s the point I wanted show. PlayFader is a live performance instrument and a wise genius synth-builder once said “instruments reward practice and perseverance”. (Vlad from Soma thank you ๐Ÿ™)

Me and Jason designed PlayFader to give users lots of support and freedom - stay tightly locked into the groove and wander far away from it at any time, always with the option to come back to where you were.

There’s lots going on in this, too much to explain in detail here. It’s 7 minutes long and uses lots of features like the dual buffers, live switching, Latch play, Fun fx, ratchets etc etc.

Left channel is playing @rolandsynthandaira S-1. Right channel is playing the @intellijel Atlantix. I’m using @algoriddimofficial djay Linked to @ableton ๐Ÿ’›

Enjoy ❤️"
