MEDITATIONS ON DEATH | Solar 42F, Vongon Replay, Intellijel Swells & Jellymix, Fieldtone Weaver

video upload by Jay Hosking

"Please support my work on Patreon: / jayhosking
A live synthesizer jam performed entirely on hardware, with the 42F at the centre.

00:00 - Childhood and adolescence
04:10 - Adulthood
08:42 - Senescence

This is perhaps the first of a number of longer-form performances focused on some existential themes. I thought perhaps I might use the Solar 42F for all of them; I may still, but I also don't want to limit myself with any arbitrary rules, so we'll see.

Thanks for listening.

Elta Solar 42F - arp, sirens, drone chords
Vongon Replay - melody/lead synth
Fieldtone Weaver - sample weirdness 1
Qu-Bit Stardust - sample weirdness 2
Intellijel Swells - reverb on everything
Intellijel Jellymix - mixer

Performed and recorded live to a stereo output, with EQ, compression, and limiting on the master.

Intellijel Swells | Four synth explorations

video upload by Jay Hosking

"Four mostly ambient pieces with Intellijel's new reverb and other hardware.

Fair warning: Intellijel sent me the Swells and Jellymix. Take that as you will. Considering how much other Intellijel stuff I use, and considering how much I'm a sucker for reverb, I was excited to try this one out.

00:00 - Omnichord ambient
03:49 - SubH Replay ambient
08:22 - S-4 OVUM ambient
12:35 - Hexdrums jam

Undoubtedly, we're living in a golden era of reverb hardware. I've got more reverb than one human needs, but I love it so much. One thing that means, though, is that I'm looking for reverb that does new things, that isn't just good but different and textural and interesting in and of itself.

In that respect I've been very happy with Swells, and am planning to use it a bunch after this. Swells can play it straight, but the combination of self-generated modulation and great colouration options means Swells can draw attention, add unique character, and fill a role more than simply adding space. I've particularly liked pairing it with Jellymix, using Swells as a send and then using varying amounts of wet/dry across multiple instruments, creating a shared reverb environment that feels pretty glued. It's a great combo.

So do you need another reverb? Probably not. You don't need anything in hardware, honestly. But if you're looking for a hardware reverb that makes you think differently about time-based effects, and if you're looking for a reverb that sounds good in new ways, I think Swells is worth checking out.

Thanks for listening.

A Guide to Synthesizer Filters (and how to use them to make music)

video upload by The Unperson

"In today's guide to synthesizer filters I break down filters and show how you can use them to make music. Whether you’re working with eurorack, hardware, software, analog, or digital synths, this guide should help you further understand filters.

We start with the basics, looking at what filters do and how low pass, high pass, and band pass filters shape sound. From there, I move into modulation, showing how to use envelopes and LFOs to add movement, rhythm, and expression to your patches.

I also cover filter self oscillation and how filters can become sound sources in their own right. Towards the end, we get into more advanced techniques like filter banks and stereo filtering to create wider, more complex sounds and mixes.

If you’re into synthesis, sound design, or electronic music production, this will give you techniques you can immediately apply to your own tracks.

Topics covered include synthesizer filters, eurorack and modular synthesis, sound design, envelopes, LFO modulation, filter self oscillation, filter banks, stereo filters, and electronic music production.

Perfect for fans of synthesis, sound design, eurorack, modular systems, and electronic music production.

Experimental Modular Footwork with TENORI-ON | Roar 2026-02-14 by atnr

video upload by atnr

"An experimental footwork piece created with YAMAHA TENORI-ON and a modular synthesizer.

In the modular system, Plaits serves as the main oscillator, while MIDI triggers the Quad Function & Trigger Source. The sound is split into two paths: the direct output of Mutable Instruments Plaits and a version processed through a Clouds clone. These two signals are mixed in stereo. The final output is routed through ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ LOST+FOUND, adding reverb and delay.

On the TENORI-ON, rhythm patterns are programmed in real time, with occasional delay applied via MOOD MKII."

The "Easel" Spirit in 3U - A West Coast Eurorack Deep Dive

video upload by Sean Graves

The following is in via Sean Graves, who had the following to say:

"The piece, 'The 'Easel' Spirit in 3U: Rebuilding a Buchla Soul in Eurorack,' documents my five-year journey to replicate the specific workflow and 'soul' of the Buchla Music Easel using a curated Eurorack system."

"This post explores the creative power of 5-step sequencing (the 'migrating downbeat'), the 'origami' of wavefolding via the Verbos Complex Oscillator, and the organic harmonic dampening of vactrol-based Low Pass Gates. It’s a technical yet accessible look at why the West Coast workflow remains the 'holy grail' for performance - based synthesis."

The full write-up follows, with a demonstration of the system in the video above.

The “Easel” Spirit in 3U: Rebuilding a Buchla Soul in Eurorack

The Buchla Music Easel is legendary. It isn’t just a synthesizer. It’s a self-contained performance ecosystem. For many of us, the “Easel” workflow is the holy grail of synthesis. However, instead of chasing original hardware, I’ve spent the past five years rebuilding its specific soul within the Eurorack format. Because everyone deserves a hobby, right?

The Chef vs. The Sculptor
Most East Coast synthesizers work like a sculptor. You start with a massive block of harmonic noise (Sawtooth or Square waves) and carve it away with a filter. The Buchla workflow is different. It’s like being a chef in your own Hell’s Kitchen. You start with basic, “bland” ingredients (sine waves) and spice them up with Frequency Modulation (FM), Amplitude Modulation (AM), your choice, and then fold until the sound sizzles.

My current rig recreates this spirit by focusing on three pillars: Uncertainty, Complex Oscillation, and the iconic Sequential Voltage Source.

Part One: The Modulators (The Brain)
In a true Easel style setup, the Tokyo Tape Music Center 5-Step Sequencer acts as the brain. While most modern sequencers favor 4-8-16-32 steps, the 5-step limitation is actually a creative superpower.
