Wavetables on the Akai MPC: OS 3.9 Turns Keygroups Into a Wavetable Synth

video upload by Keith Crosley

"The Akai MPC just became a wavetable synth! With the MPC OS 3.9 update (and the new MPC 3 desktop software), Akai added oscillators — including a wavetable oscillator with custom wavetable import — to Drum and Keygroup tracks. In this video, I walk through how wavetables actually work on the MPC: enabling the oscillator, installing your own wavetables, the format.json quirk, and a deep dive into sound design across more than a dozen wavetable categories.

To make this painless, I built the KRC MPC Wavetables Collection — 2,156 wavetables preformatted for the Akai MPC, just $10 — and added a free Akai MPC version of my Free Wavetables collection (1,600+ wavetables). Everything in the intro track (besides most of the drums) was made with these.

─── WHAT YOU'LL LEARN ───
How to enable oscillator/wavetable layers in MPC key groups (OS 3.9 / MPC 3)
How to install custom wavetables on standalone MPCs and the MPC 3 desktop software
The format.json requirement (samples-per-frame + frame count) and how to work around it
Designing sounds with up to 8 oscillators, crossfade-as-time morphing, and the mod matrix
A tour of 13 wavetable categories: Bézier, choir, split, polygonal, M-series, microwaved (Waldorf-style), phase distortion & more

The Prophet

video upload by Robin Rimbaud-Scanner

"What began as a little studio playtime with a new software synth from GForce developed into this neat little EP.

I made a little demo online for social media and had a number of requests to make this track available, so you not only get that track, but also three additional tracks, all of which I made on the same day.

A little context - Few instruments have left such an indelible mark on modern music as the Sequential Prophet-5. You’ve heard it on countless recordings, from Michael Jackson’s Thriller album to Phil Collins, from Radiohead to Vangelis, Peter Gabriel, David Bowie, Gary Numan, Kraftwerk, oh the list goes on and on."

DS-8 v0.4 Update: Analog Synths, Sample Loading & Live Pattern Control

video upload by Intermynd Instruments

"DS-8 v0.4 is a major step toward turning the PS Vita into a complete handheld music workstation.

This update adds multiple patterns with append and clone, BPM-synced pattern launching, improved mute and solo controls, a new melodic SYN engine with an Analog subtractive synth voice, scale-based note input, melodic pattern generation, longer 15-second samples, AIF/WAV browsing, streaming sample previews, and cleaner 48kHz sampling.

In this video, I walk through what’s new and show how DS-8 is moving beyond drum sequencing into full track creation on the Vita."

Six-part multitimbral engine. Independent effects per part. Massive digital power."

Deep Forest – SOUL

video upload by Deep Forest

"The first chapter from the upcoming album SOUL.

Deep Forest has always explored the frontier between memory, technology and emotion.
From ancestral voices to new forms of sonic creation, from organic textures to AI-driven experimentation, music becomes a living, shifting presence — almost conscious.
Traditional sounds merge seamlessly with the tools of the future.
Human and machine no longer stand in opposition. Together, they create a new emotional language.
For more than three decades, Deep Forest has blended ethnic inspiration, electronic landscapes and innovative sound design, constantly searching for new sonic territories.
SOUL continues this journey into unexplored dimensions, where ancient memories, synthetic textures and human emotion intertwine.

Thus begins a new chapter of Deep Forest.

Ambient improvisation with Waldorf Microwave 1 (update V2.0, no talking, no effects)

video upload by Martin Stürtzer

"All sounds of this ambient improvisation are from the Waldorf Microwave 1 plugin, version 2.0. No external effects were used. The first sound is a pad in multimode with some LFO modulations on the filter. The second sound uses the new Poly Arp, followed by a bass patch. The patterns were recorded and looped using Ableton Live.

All patches, sounds, sequences and arrangements were made by a (cat assisted) human. No AI tools were used in the creation of the music, video and artwork.

Inertia Synthesizer

video upload by Zack Berwick

"So after seeing Author and Punisher live earlier this year, I felt inspired to build my own drone machine.

These controllers consists of a 2lbs aluminum rod attached to a optical rotary encoder, while sitting atop thrust ball bearings. This encoder is then wired to an Ardunio Uno R3 measuring the RPM value along with it's rotational direction. I then used that data to control a synth patch I made in Max Msp 9 using the abl.drift and abl.roar objects along with two DMX controlled light panels using the Beam max package.

Moog Messenger x Akai Pro MPC Sample | Building Layers with a Sampler Pt. 1

video upload by Moog Music and Akai Professional

"Jun 26, 2026 #Moog #AkaiPro #Messenger
Join us as we explore how a sampler can expand the musical possibilities of a monophonic synth.

In this new series, we dive into sound design on the Moog Messenger, then move into sampling and arrangement with the ‪@Akai_Pro‬ MPC Sample. By combining the expressive character of analog synthesis with the flexibility of modern sampling workflows, these two instruments come together as a complete production ecosystem.

Whether you’re shaping tones from scratch or building full arrangements, this setup shows how far a focused rig can go."
