3. Yamaha CK76 | Chris Potter - Hurt To Love

Check with dealers on the right for pricing and availability.

Press release follows:

BUENA PARK, Calif. [October 21, 2026] – Yamaha today announced the CK76 Stage Keyboard, a new addition to the CK Series lineup that delivers an ideal balance of portability and performance for working musicians. Featuring a 76-key semi-weighted action, authentic piano, organ and synth sounds, intuitive hands-on controls, built-in speakers and battery-powered operation, the CK76 is designed to turn virtually any location into a stage or studio.

Joining the existing CK61 and CK88 models, the CK76 expands the award-winning CK Series with a versatile option for players seeking more range than a 61-key instrument, while maintaining the portability modern musicians demand. Drawing from the acclaimed Yamaha CP Stage Piano and YC Stage Keyboard lines, the CK76 combines acoustic and electric pianos, strings, brass, organs and modern synthesizer sounds in a streamlined instrument built for performance and creativity.

“Designed for musicians on the go, the portable 76-key CK76 stage keyboard brings together realistic acoustic pianos, vintage organs and modern synths from our CP and YC lines into a streamlined, highly intuitive interface,” said Nate Tschetter, senior manager, product marketing for synth, at Yamaha. “From the rehearsal room to the stage, the CK76 delivers the sounds, control and portability musicians need to create, perform and play anywhere.”

Your Drum Machine Already Has a Sequencer. Here’s Why to Use Another One

video upload by OXI Instruments

"Most drum machines come with a capable sequencer built in: probability, micro-timing, ratchets, song mode. So why add another one? Because once there is more than one instrument on the desk, every machine brings its own workflow, its own menus and its own way of thinking. Patterns get scattered across different boxes, projects are hard to recall, and the full groove is never visible in one place.

This video covers five reasons to move the writing to an external sequencer and let the drum machines do what they do best: sound great. With the OXI One MKII at the centre, every instrument is written the same way, the whole groove is visible at once, and the patterns stay with you, whatever hardware is connected.

Gnomad Synth V1 for the M-VAVE FM-1 - Firmware a Kid Can Read

This one is in via Kyle who wrote the app for his kids!

"My kids are why I made this. I wanted a synth they could pick up and play without getting lost in menus, so I built Gnomad, a free firmware for the M-VAVE FM-1. Sounds are pictures, the knobs are colour coded, and a little gnome sings along. There's an iPhone/iPad app on the way too, with lessons built in."

"What's different about it

There are plenty of FM-1 firmwares. This one is built to be easy, so it works for kids and for adults who have never touched a synth.

EASY mode, in pictures. Turn one knob and you pick a picture: the Gnome, organ, bells, laser, whale, choir, cloud, piano, funny sounds or drums. That's 10 pictures and 57 sounds, and you don't have to be able to read to find one.

Four coloured knobs (blue, green, yellow, vermilion) that shape the sound you picked. Each sound gives its knobs their own jobs, and the screen names each job in the knob's colour. You can't turn them wrong. If something sounds odd, turn it back.

The Gnome sings. Each key gets its own syllable.

Grooves. Five ready-made loops (Head Nod, Floor Filler, Rainy Desk, Night Bus, Sky Garden) to play along with or build on. Keys 6 to 9 hold your own four saved songs.

Record a loop. Press REC and then PLAY, wait for the 4-3-2-1 count-in, and play. It goes round and round. Hold SAVE to undo, and the screen tells you what it took off.

Play it live. Hold PLAY and the loop restarts on the next bar. Press GLO + PLAY and it stops at the end of the bar. Hold GLO and play keys for a fill, or hold FX and play keys to try a sound without recording it.

Advanced mode is still there. Hold HOME + SAVE for 2 seconds to switch between the two modes. You get four tracks, a step sequencer, effects, MIDI over USB and TRS, and every page of the synth. Your music stays as it is.

M-VAVE FM-1 Caravel: Lyra Inspired Drone Engine Demo

video upload by BonszaiMusic

You can find the M-VAVE FM-1 on Amazon.

"Turn the Cheap M-VAVE FM-1 into a SOMA Lyra Drone Engine using the Caravel patch.

In this video, we explore how to turn the budget-friendly M-VAVE FM-1 into an organic, massive, self-oscillating drone machine inspired by the legendary SOMA Laboratory Lyra-8. No talking, pure sound exploration from subtle harmonic hums to crushing feedback layers.

🔊 Sound Architecture & Concept (Caravel Engine):
• Lyra-8 Emulation Concept: Cross-modulated FM operator voices, interconnected drift, and unstable tuning behavior.
• Voice Interaction: Simulating organic pitch drift, cross-modulation feedback loops, and chaotic interplay between voices.
• Textures: Slow evolving drones, ambient washes, harsh metallic overtones, and massive sub-bass frequencies.

🎛️ Gear Used & Setup:
• Synth: M-VAVE FM-1 (Felucca / Caravel Custom Firmware/Patch)
• Control: Manual parameter tweaking / on-the-fly modulation

⏱️ Timestamps:
00:00 - Introduction & Initial Voice Setup
01:15 - Cross-Modulation & Harmonic Drifts
03:00 - Pushing into Overdrive & Distortion
04:45 - Sub-Bass Drone & Slow Evolution

"Finally finished! Been working day (and night. Cause its sweden, so that starts at like 18:00). So this is the most basic video I can make with the Fluxophone. Just showing the controls and that it works. So now its up to YOU (and me) to figure out HOW it works. Like where it really shines! So I'm gonna do tons of more experiments as soon as I have shipped out all orders.
