Subboom 💥 (Moog Subharmonicon + Microtubes X + Bigsky // Cre8audio Boom Chick + Lethargy + H90)

video upload by 2-Minute Warning

"This is my second jam featuring the Boom Chick 5-voice analog drum machine 🥁
Digging a little bit further this time by using 2 patterns (with chance/probability etc.) and its handy individual outputs going through some pedals (Dreadbox Lethargy Phaser + Eventide H90 Vintage Delay and Plate Reverb)!

So the Boom Chick is playing all the drum parts and the Subhamonicon the harmonic parts (BASS & ARP/LEAD). The Subharmonicon is synced to the Boom Chick with its analog clock.

The challenge here was mainly to try to get out of the 4-step sequences inherent to the Subharmonicon 😉
So I changed in real-time one of the knobs of the sequencer to play random melodies, and used another method by turning the FREQ knob of VCO 2.

Still haven't really read the Boom Chick's manual though (just had to dig into it to better understand how "chance" worked exactly)."

video upload by Thomann Synthesizers

"At Superbooth 2025, Cre8audio and Pittsburgh Modular unveiled two new analog devices: the Boom Chick drum machine and the Assembler mixer, both designed for standalone use and Eurorack integration.

The Boom Chick is a five-voice analog drum machine featuring kick, snare, hi-hat, and two versatile percussion voices capable of FM synthesis and wave shaping. Its six-track sequencer offers step and live modes, polyrhythms, Euclidean pattern generation, and performance tools like swing, humanize, and probability. Connectivity includes individual trigger inputs and outputs, MIDI I/O, clock sync, and reset, with output levels suitable for Eurorack systems. 

The Assembler is a 10-channel analog mixer with six mono and two stereo inputs, each equipped with preamps offering up to 20x gain, soft compression, and signal contouring. It features three post-fader aux sends with corresponding returns, a dedicated headphone cue output, and compatibility with both line-level and Eurorack signals. The mixer can function as a standalone desktop unit or be mounted in a 40HP Eurorack space.

Both devices are expected to be available in mid-May 2025."

video upload by MusicRadar Tech

"For a few years now, Berlin’s Superbooth show has been a focal point for music technology gear announcements, but the 2025 iteration took this to another level. The sheer volume and variety of new music making gear on display in and around the FEZ event space was beyond anything we’ve seen in previous years.

MusicRadar was on the ground to test everything we could get our hands on. As the show drew to a close Managing Editor Si Truss, Reviews Editor Simon Arblaster and Tech Channel Editor Matt Mullen found a quiet corner in the woods to sit down for a roundtable (sans table) discussion about their highlights from the 2025 Superbooth show floor."
