Dawless Techno EDM Jam | Novation Circuit Tracks & Rhythm

video upload by Underground Modulation

"In this video I perform a groovebox jam, and this time it’s a techno EDM track created entirely with hardware. The groove is driven by a powerful Novation Circuit combo, blending rhythm, melody, and energy into a tight live performance.

Two grooveboxes are used in this setup:

Novation Circuit Tracks – rhythm and melodic elements

Novation Circuit Rhythm – rhythm, textures, and custom samples

Both Circuit grooveboxes perfectly complement each other, allowing me to build dynamic beats and evolving melodic patterns in a fully dawless workflow. Everything is sequenced live on the Circuit Tracks and Circuit Rhythm, without using a DAW during performance.
Final mastering was done in Ableton Live to polish the track.
Thanks for listening and enjoy the vibe 🎶🚀"

Launch Control XL 3 Got an Update – Still Missing One Thing

video upload by Sineway

"I’ve been refining my live performance setup with the Syntakt and the updated Launch Control XL 3, and this jam is the result.

The XL 3 recently received a firmware update, which got me thinking about how close this controller is to being perfect for Elektron gear - and the one feature I still wish it had.

In this performance, I’m using:
Elektron macros for more expressive changes across patterns
A second row of encoders for Syntakt track levels
Momentary Breath Control via the lower button row

What I’m still missing is aftertouch MIDI support - it would unlock a third row of Elektron macros, which are so much more powerful than direct CC mappings. This is one area where alternatives like Faderfox still have a massive edge. That said, I really like the XL 3.

Curious what you think - would aftertouch support change how you use the XL 3?

If you're interested in how I set the Launch Control XL 3 up, I've made a tutorial about it featuring the Digitone II. It works exactly the same on the Syntakt: • Digitone 2 + Launch Control XL 3: One Syst..." [posted here]

Buchla 02 Vibrations

video upload by Deep Forest

"A deep dive into the Buchla universe.
Modular synthesis, unstable voltages, organic shapes.
Living sounds, unpredictable, born from analog circuits and raw vibrations.
Nothing is fixed here: the sound breathes, evolves, transforms.

An exploration of the Buchla as a true instrument, somewhere between sonic matter and experimental music."

Not your usual filter module - Ceremony by Nekyia Circuits

video upload by Stazma and Nekyia Circuits

"More infos and affiliate links in the description // Support on Patreon to get samples from this session: / stazma

Today we are going to check out Ceremony by Nekyia Circuits. It's filter inspired by Rob Hordijk's Twin Peak resonator module.

It's a very resonant Low Pass / Dual Bandpass with many internal feedback routings that easily create vocal like sounds and wet and weird analogue bubblebaths.

The power of 100 sawtooth oscillators

video upload by WPalmWT

"This is a basic experiment I did a while ago.
What you hear is a cluster of sawtooth oscillators. no modifiers or envelopes etc. are involved.

The enormous computing power needed to do this is realised by involving the GPU and a 'compute shader' program.
The computer used: Mac mini M1, 2020.

(Please excuse the volume differences in the video)"

2/8/26 (first beat) Roland CR-78 & RE-301 + Alesis MIDIVERB II

"2/8/26 (first beat) Roland CR-78 & RE-301 + Alesis MIDIVERB II

Just when we finally gave up on getting a Roland CR-78 for a good deal, this one popped up. It’s fairly similar to the Multivox FR-6 we used to have, but the CR-78 has that Roland sound, plus a lot more controls and sync features."
