Synth Stuff Ep. 92 - Modal Element One


video upload by tritonrecordings

"Fresh from Modal's oven is the Element One. I think the idea was to take their analog modeling engine and scale the programming side of things down for a sleeker interface, and instead focusing more on performance. Not a bad idea, and I can see this being useful in a live setting. The sound is great and covers a lot of ground beyond just analog emulation type sounds. It has some of the same UI quirks that irritate me about my Argon8X, but it's a great lightweight synth full of good sounds. I think Modal in general makes some underrated stuff, so check them out if you see one. The illuminated Modal logo does it for me too - I'm a sucker for that kind of thing..."

Sean R McKee - Illumatone Forest - Lumatone Performance


video upload by Sean McKee

"Music video for an instrumental song featuring the Lumatone Isomorphic Keyboard, Michael Barton Art custom 'Leo' bass, Strandberg guitar. Synth sounds from GS Music e7 [all the solo synth sounds], Hydrasynth Deluxe, sound effects with Erae Touch 2. All parts played by Sean R McKee.

All the videos I’ve seen of Lumatone were performed solo, with most exploring microtonality. I wanted to put Lumatone in a 'band' setting with a traditional Western tuning."

NINE INCH NAILS - A Warm Place (Cover - Prophet REV2 & Elektron Analog Heat+FX)


video upload by nicola neeco

"This is my reinterpretation of A Warm Place by Nine Inch Nails, originally from The Downward Spiral album.

Instead of recreating the dense layering of the original, I approached the piece with a more minimal setup, using the Sequential Prophet Rev2, routed into the Elektron Analog Heat+FX (for saturation, compression, eq & filter)

The sound of the synth comes from a complex patch I recently designed, actually built as two separate patches, one for each hand (split mode).
There’s a certain tonal character in this patch that reminds me of Lorn’s work: dark, emotional, and slightly detuned. That influence naturally found its way into this version.

This is less about replication and more about translation: trying to preserve the emotional core of the original while reshaping its sonic identity through a different instrument and perspective."

JX2044 "Soundtrack" demo


video upload by adamstan84

"Here's my attempt at recreating famous JX-8P 'Soundtrack' patch on my upcoming #JX2044 synthesizer. There are two variations shown - second one uses fast chorus setting and adds a bit of "brassy" attack on pitch envelope."


See the ADAMSTAN84 label below for additional posts including the prototype.

"Another pathetic attempt at making black music by an old white guy. And on top of it: 40 years too late. But at least you don't have to pay for it by sitting through ads."

Sinewave Feedback FM | Make Noise Shared System


video upload by Akihiko Matsumoto

"A textural expedition into modular synthesis
This pack is a deep dive into the sonic world of Make Noise, the Asheville-based modular synthesizer company known for redefining how musicians interact with sound.
Drawing inspiration from the vision of founder Tony Rolando, who sought to create instruments that invite play, exploration, and complexity, this collection offers sounds you cannot extract from conventional DAWs or virtual synths alone.

All material was produced entirely with Make Noise modular systems, capturing their distinctive tonal character and lively unpredictability. It is designed for electronic music producers who value raw texture, voltage-driven chaos, and intricate sound design rooted in hardware.

That is 1951 oneshots and 1059 loops, each chosen for its uniqueness and modular authenticity.
This pack is not static. All purchases include free lifetime updates. Files are continuously added over time, rewarding those who support early and stay involved. If you've already bought the pack, you now have access to the latest additions at no extra cost. If not, this is a perfect moment to jump in.
Perfect for those working in experimental club music, ambient, glitch, techno, leftfield bass, or soundtracks that need something unfamiliar yet compelling.
This is not just a sample pack. It is a collection of sonic experiments born from voltage and possibility."

MARF as Switcher et al


video upload by Todd Barton

"Using the 248t MARF as a switcher via its external inputs from the 245t sequencer to create a 20 stage sequence. Then using the other part of the MARF for a 12 stage sequence. Some fun now!"

聊一下模块合成器 Bohm:是底鼓也是演奏工作站


video upload by 合成少数派 Synthesis Minority

You can click CC in the player once Meng Qi comes on for subtitles.

"Bohm 的核心设计哲学是“把底鼓做成一个可以更换内核的平台”。不同于别的底鼓模块,是“一个声音,深度可控”;Bohm 是“多个完全不同的合成引擎”,更重要的是,它还带一些 Groovebox 式的生成式功能"

Googlish:

"Let's talk about the Bohm modular synthesizer: It’s both a kick drum module and a performance workstation.

Bohm’s core design philosophy is to create a kick drum module that serves as a platform with swappable "cores." Unlike other kick drum modules—which typically offer "a single sound with deep parameter control"—Bohm features "multiple, entirely distinct synthesis engines." More importantly, it also incorporates generative capabilities reminiscent of a groovebox."
