Recreating String Ensemble sound with Poly Synth
video upload by George B.
"Today I used my OBX8 to recreate the ARP string Ensemble sound. By breaking down how the String Ensemble worked internally, I used what I learned to simulate the ensemble effect. Also I have a three channel ensemble board from an 80's organ that I built into an effects box. So I could compare my settings. Hope you like it!

Novation Bass Station II (Bass Station 2) - Synth Jam by Damiano Della Torre
video upload by Mr Keys
"I had some fun experimenting with a few arpeggios recorded live on the Novation Bass Station II, and just to give myself some groove I used programmed rhythms from Logic Pro for iPad. Everything was easily synced via MIDI/USB.
A real blast! Long live music and see you soon.
Damiano"

CRUMAR CORDATRON (1974) Castelfidardo
This is an accordion string machine with organ section, a brass synth section with filter controls, trigger-able analog drum sounds and chord and piano presets on a Stradella button board.
Crumar made a few different models of this type of instrument but this is the very first.
Unicorn rarity is the order of the day regarding the control key- and button board - the serial number 3 of allegedly 10 units ever put in production.
Crumar had just started producing keyboards after mainly producing accordions, and around this time they launched the three COMPAC models that definitely inspired the sections of the Cordatron: Compac Strings, Compac Brass and Compac Piano.
Most of the CRUMAR CORDATRON specifications are in the video as text already so please watch the video and read the text - but a quick roundup would look like this :
The instrument consists of mainly two separate units connected by a huge, hardwired 3-piece connector : the main sound generator unit with power supply, audio outputs, tuning and volume pedal, as well as the control unit - basically a butterflied accordion with a Stradella button board for the left hand and a regular keyboard for the right hand.
All the sounds are analog and are generated by the very first generation of divide down technology - no eproms or other intruders of vulgar modernity is on hand.
The sound generator weighs 23 kilos and is literally crammed with sandwiched layers of massive circuit boards of transistors and capacitors.

24 Songs/Presets for the Sonicware Liven Evoke
video upload by Sonic Cartography
"A collection of 24 songs/presets for the Sonicware Liven Evoke. The patterns can be downloaded from my Patreon ( / 24-new-songs-147901371 , where you'll also find some notes on some of the songs.
A lot of my music feels to me like a soundtrack to an imaginary movie, so for the visuals for this one, I figured "hey, the music set is about an hour—so why not just pair it with a movie?" And since (a) I don't want to get in trouble for copyright infringement and (b) I have a preoccupation with "past futures" (a sense of nostalgia for the future that was once imagined by the past and that no longer seems possible), this led me to look for public domain Cold War era films, which led me to this one: Battle Beyond the Sun (1962), an Americanized version of Nebo Zovyot (1959), a Soviet science fiction. The person tasked with Americanizing it was a young film student named Francis Ford Coppola.
A big thank you to all my Patreon supporters—especially those who are supporting my channel at the super supporter level: Tomasz and Maria.

Dub Techno with Elektron Tonverk (Music and track walkthrough)
video upload by Martin Stürtzer
"This is my first Dub Techno track with the Elektron Tonverk. All sounds, samples and effects are from the machine. After I play through the track I explain how I created the different elements of the pattern and tell you what I think about the Tonverk.
I bought this instrument from my own money, this video is not sponsored by Elektron.
All music was created by a (cat assisted) human. No AI tools were involved in the production of the music and artwork.

Fasttracker II (FT2) Plugin

"Fasttracker II as a VST3/AU/LV2 plugin. Download at https://github.com/juho/ft2-plugin"

He had the following to say:
"I’ve been working on a VST3/AU/LV2 plugin port of the standalone Fasttracker II (from 1996) originally made by Triton Productions and now maintained by 8bitbubsy. It’s free and available for MacOS (both modern and 10.14+ (Mojave)), Windows and Linux. It is a complete rewrite of bubsy’s version, but is still a fork of his work."
Here's a tutorial series from Ocean View of the stand alone version from 8 years ago:

Crumar bit 01 black CEM3328, w/ Tauntek OS & Stereoping Controller

"It has the CEM3328 filters, sounding great.
I have installed the Tauntek firmware, allowing realtime MIDI control, especially great with the included Stereoping Controller.
The Stereoping Controller has an overlay of the G8-P edition glued and the bit 01 overlay is only thrown above, which works top notch as is and makes it even easier to dust clean (I have some other editions overlays I may include for free if interested)."
