Mutable Dreams for MPC | Product Preview · 3 Songs, 271 Biomes & a Playable Garden


video upload by Kid Bunka

"A garden that makes music — and an instrument you can play.

This product preview introduces Mutable Dreams for MPC by Kid Bunka: six generative tracks, playable instruments, performance pads and a botanical interface that moves with the music. This walkthrough follows three original short pieces rather than one repeated loop.

00:00 Night Garden — presets, macros and playable keys
00:33 Performance pads — textures and space
00:47 Shape, echo, hall and movement
01:20 Worlds That Think — WORLDS, LOGIC and SYNTH
02:21 Biomes and the engine-tone browser
02:36 Mutable Machines — Plaits, Braids, Rings and Elements
03:13 Modules and resonators
03:23 Clouds, Spectral and Beads
03:39 Freeze, final notes and credits

INSIDE THE PREVIEW
• 271 Biomes, 48 Worlds and 121 programs in the MPC preset list.
• Six generative tracks, or engine tones played with up to six voices.
• Playable Plaits / Braids, plus Rings and Elements instruments. Plaits offers up to 12 voices; the voice limit depends on the instrument and available DSP time.
• 16 performance pads for harmony, textures, space and form; velocity / pressure input where delivered by the host.
• Gesture capture, looping, overdub and six recallable Moments.
• Seven LOGIC rules and eight SYNTH engines.
• Warps, Rings, Clouds / Beads and Marbles integrations.
• Deep mode with stereo hall, ensemble and FM / VA unison, plus Classic mode for the earlier sound and saved projects.
• Main stereo mix and six dry track stereo pairs (14 output channels), subject to the host’s routing support.
• MPC transport, Q-Link control, MIDI input, project state and context help.

PRODUCT PREVIEW / COMPATIBILITY
This is a development preview. A public MPC release and download will be announced separately.
0.9.13 is a preview intended for Akai Gen 2 MPC models. Kid Bunka has tested and approved 0.9.13 on his Gen 2 MPC (confirmed 14 November 2026). This is not a claim that every Gen 2 model has been tested individually. Compatibility with older MPC models is still being investigated. A 32-bit file in a package is not a confirmation of older-model support. Use only a package and installation procedure confirmed for your exact MPC model and OS.

HOW THIS VIDEO WAS MADE
All music comes from the actual C++ plugin engine, rendered offline with scripted notes, pads and parameter moves. The interface is rendered on the Mac from the built plugin skin and synchronized parameter states. This is not a recording of an MPC screen or a filmed hardware performance. No voice-over.

THANK YOU
Every useful report, curious question and kind message has helped shape Mutable Dreams. I’m a beatmaker and producer building the instruments I want to play, and it means a lot that you’re exploring them with me. Thank you for helping this little garden grow.

DIY Resonant Low-Pass Gate


video upload by Dylan B.

https://loess-labs.net/inst/modular/a...


Resonant Low-pass Gate based on standard Sallen-Key filter topology, using hand-rolled vactrols and op amps.

Features:

Gnarly resonant feedback
Overdrive
Intermediary to west and east coast sounds
Organic vactrol response

For the vactrols, I used GL5506 photoresistors and standard yellow LEDs. I couldn't find my heat shrink tubing so I just used very snugly-fitting tubing from a lamp cord and hot glue to hold it together.

There can be a lot of variation due to component tolerances, so you may want to experiment with different capacitor values. Specifically the 104 (0.1uF), you could perhaps go a little lower in value with that if you wanted a less squelchy sound.

"MIDGAR is a new Audio Unit effect by Bram Bos - made to turn simple sounds into endlessly evolving, complex spatial sonic carpets

Available as AUv3 for iOS, iPadOS and MacOS (in a single purchase!)

Find it on the AppStore: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/midgar-..."


"Sometimes all you have is a simple beat, a dry synth or a handful of found sounds. MIDGAR takes a few minimal sounds and turns them into moving, multilayered sound carpets or a dirty barrage of shimmering glitchy delays.

MIDGAR features a chain of cleverly interacting effect sections (each one can be dialled in separately) which can be used for intricately glitched drums, massive lush ambient shimmer reverbs, and lots of creative stuff in between.

- The Phrase Delay records rhythmic snippets of your sound, plays them back at various speeds and bounces them across the stereo field, optionally introducing stuttery glitches.

- DS-1 then dirties up the resulting stacked sound with a modified guitar effect (if you want).

DrumDing By Vermona. Full Track Demo Sound. (No talking)

video upload by SynthyCraft

"Download PatchBook for DrumDing: https://www.synthycraft.com/l/drumdin...

drumDING challenges the conventional concept of a drum machine. Forget dedicated tracks for kicks, snares, hi-hats, and percussion. Instead, everything begins with a single, powerful analog synthesis engine capable of creating an entire universe of electronic sounds.

Sculpt your sound from scratch, capture it instantly as a sample, and bring it into the digital domain for further processing, layering, and experimentation. Each sound becomes a building block, ready to take its place in a rhythm driven by drumDING's integrated sequencer.

The process is beautifully circular: synthesize, sample, sequence, repeat. Every new sound opens the door to another creative direction, turning drumDING into an instrument where sound design and beatmaking become one continuous experience.

And that's where the magic happens. What initially feels like an unconventional approach quickly becomes second nature. Rather than forcing you into a predefined workflow, drumDING encourages exploration, experimentation, and discovery."

ADEPT — A Multi-Playhead MIDI/CV Ecosystem


video uploads by AARM

Press release follows:


AARM launches ADEPT on Kickstarter: a multiplayhead MIDI and CV sequencer

Twelve tracks, three independent playheads on each track, eleven sequencer types and a free companion app, ADEPT Link.

14 November 2026 — AARM today launched ADEPT on Kickstarter. ADEPT is a standalone hardware MIDI and CV sequencer, designed as a MIDI sequencing ecosystem rather than a single linear sequencer. ADEPT has 12 tracks. Three independent playheads — Orange, Yellow and Blue — read each track. Each playhead has its own length, direction, clock division, clock source and output, so one pattern can play three ways at once: a 16-step bass line on Orange can run beside the same notes, read backwards over 12 steps, on Yellow.

Each track can use one of eleven sequencer types: Note Grid, Drum Grid, MODU, Deflector, Euclid, Trapdoor, Pathways, Cube, Orbit, Logic and Pachinko. A track can change type at any time without losing data. On Pathways, Cube, Orbit and Pachinko, nodes can launch complete tracks instead of notes, so sequencers can play other sequencers.

For performance, XPLAY gives full-screen tools: Conductor (with Call & Response and Composer), Crossfade, Live Play with group pads, Transition, Live Mix and Arrange. Track LFOs, cross modulation, three Modifier slots per track, step conditions and a pattern Generator keep patterns moving.

ADEPT connects to a full studio: three MIDI DIN inputs and outputs, three USB MIDI ports over one cable, two CV and two gate outputs, a CV input, a trigger input and DIN sync. A built-in MIDI router can filter, split and merge, and can change a track’s route on selected steps. The 3.5-inch touchscreen, four encoders and a joystick give direct control.

ADEPT Link, a free companion app for Mac and PC, gives two-way control between the hardware and a computer. It hosts VST instruments that ADEPT can play and control, and it runs as a standalone app or as a plugin inside a DAW (VST3 and AU on Mac, VST3 on Windows). A beta version is available now. Firmware updates are free and install over USB from a web app.

Most sequencers give you one way to read a pattern. ADEPT gives every track three playheads and eleven ways to move through it, so a simple idea can grow into a whole system.

PRICE AND AVAILABILITY
ADEPT is on Kickstarter now. The Kickstarter price is US$350 (Tier 2). Early bird backers can get Tier 1 at US$325. Campaign:

manifold research centre - cloud chamber intro


video upload by Manifold research centre


"Cloud Chamber is a small 6HP CV recorder (16s recording time at a 1KHz sampling rate) capable of generating 11 phase & time shifted variants of its buffer material.

It has a range of +10V/-10V (with a 0.1V error deviation) .

It is controlled by a console style joystick (X axis time, Y axis phase), and can speed up to 24 times or slow down up to 48 times, its outputs stay always in a nice synced/harmonic relationship.

When no CV recording material is available, the joystick itself can be used as a +5V/-5V CV source.

CC features also a FREEZE mode, which turns it into a 11 x fixed voltage source.

It is a door to the multiverse, giving you access to all the multiple realities lying within your CV source material.

Out now.

Hail the PWM"

Looking back with the Circuit tracks

"I recently reread a lot of chats I saved from the early 2000s and they cracked me up. Reflecting on them I seem almost like an entirely different person, my tone, the jokes I made, a small streak of anger that must've run through me. It's amazing to see how much I've changed as a person.
