There are many ways to get to your goal.

"Presenting my thoughts on finding different ways to get to a goal. This example starts out with the 'normal' way of making a sequencer pattern and discovering alternative ways that require less hardware, but with the same results.

285t Tiptop Audio & Buchla

video upload by Stazma

"Today we dive into the last born of the 200t serie, the Frequency Shifter & Balanced Modulator Model 285t. I've never had a frequency shifter in hardware before (I use the Ableton one quite a bit tho) so it was a bit of challenge to get into it but I found a great article that helped me a bit on Signal / Perfect Circuit, go check it out: https://www.perfectcircuit.com/signal...

Many crazy weird stuff but also some very subbtle and nicce sounding stereo effect.

Have fun!!!"

Spectral Ratcheting With The ReSynthesizer | Make Noise

video upload by MAKEN0ISE

"Spectraphon Linear Array Modulation!! Get the firmware here: https://www.makenoisemusic.com/firmware/

Last time we created several Arrays from the same sonic matter but with different modulations during their creation, then heard the difference as we modulated the various Arrays with the same modulator. This time let’s flip that around, we’ll create a single Array and hear how it sounds when we alter the modulator. By inscribing a simple rhythm into our Array we can use Slide modulation to evoke something along the lines of classic 'ratcheting.'

Instruō - tràigh [Signature Edition]

video upload by Instruō

Update: DivKid video added below.

"Hello!
Jason here.
Thank you for watching this video :)

This Signature Edition limited re-release of the tràigh low-pass filter module is available for purchase direct from Etsy:
https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/18233...

I am producing a limited batch which will be available for purchase while stock lasts.

This revised module was developed as a creative side project over the past month or two as a means of dealing with the unfortunate situation of having a very large pet greyhound with a relatively large diagnosis of cancer.
Winston was confirmed to have a stage 2 soft cell sarcoma earlier this year. He underwent a surgery on September 24th during which the tumour was successfully removed. (He has recovered very well and quickly!)
Due to the location of the sarcoma there is a high likelihood of cancer cells remaining at a microscopic level. If left unchecked they will likely return as a tumour with a chance of metastasising.
Winston began a 4 week treatment of radiotherapy on November 4th.
As of writing this we are now past the half way point and he is responding very well with no significant side effects presenting.
Each treatment requires full general anaesthetic, so I have a very dopey boy every Monday, Wednesday and Friday for the entire month of November.
The vets do provide him with some roast chicken each session when he wakes up. So he seems quite happy with his current unusual routine.

DSI Tempest: An Analog Drum Machine for the Digital Age

video upload by Retrothusiast

"The DSI Tempest is a groundbreaking analog drum machine that combines the best of both analog synthesis and digital control, making it a favorite among electronic musicians and beatmakers. Released in 2011 as a collaboration between legendary designers Dave Smith and Roger Linn, the Tempest delivers six powerful analog voices, each with dual oscillators, filters, and comprehensive sound-shaping options. With 16 responsive, pressure-sensitive pads, real-time effects, and unique features like the Roll function, the Tempest offers hands-on control that brings beats and sequences to life, whether in the studio or on stage. This is a drum machine with an unmistakable analog soul in a digital world.

For those seeking the warmth of analog combined with modern flexibility, the DSI Tempest stands out as more than just a beatmaker—it’s a complete performance instrument. Users can layer sounds, experiment with live sequencing, and even use it as a six-voice synthesizer when connected to a MIDI keyboard. Its robust step and live recording systems make it perfect for building complex patterns, stacking beats, and switching sounds on the fly. Whether you’re crafting intricate grooves or exploring unique soundscapes, the DSI Tempest remains a powerful tool for anyone wanting analog depth with digital precision.
