The most innovative keyboard in the history of analog synthesizers Coming From Moon Modular in 2026

via Moon Modular

"An eventful 2025 is coming to an end, a year with incredible results.

After approximately 1.5 years of “analyzing, researching, speculating, searching, finding, trying out...”, we have relaunched the first MOON module and laid the foundations for further modules.

The most innovative keyboard in the history of analog synthesizers will be launched in 2026 after three years of development, heralding the start of our MOOG 3.0 vision.

Our new rack instrument business segment has established itself very well and has already contributed significantly to our results this year with the BODE SW 8101 BODE Barberpole Phaser and BODE 735 Frequency Shifter devices.

All of this is presented on a new website with three product lines...

PURE R.A. MOOG

All MOOG MODULAR classics, including all MOOG systems.

MOON MODULAR

The MOON Modular product portfolio.

BODE SOUND CO.

New, partly unreleased products by Harald Bode will be added to the BARBERPOLE PHASER and FREQUENCY SHIFTER in 2026, further expanding the collaboration with the ZKM and the Karlsruhe University of Music.

Many thanks to everyone who has supplied us, sold our products, and supported us!

I wish you and your families a wonderful Christmas and a hopefully more peaceful 2026!

Your SYNTH-WERK team Gerhard, Marcus, Markus, and Thomas

Secrets to Steve Porcaro’s Sound: The CS-80 & More

video upload by Anthony Marinelli Music

"In this episode, I hang with Steve Porcaro for an up-close, hands-on look at the secrets behind his sound, with Toto and much more! Discover the musical thinking that shaped some of the most iconic synthesizer moments in pop history.
You’ll watch Steve perform on the legendary Yamaha CS-80, and demonstrate exactly why its polyphonic aftertouch changed everything. He shows how touch, phrasing, and pressure become part of the music itself, then recreates the iconic Africa brass sound, breaking down how it was programmed and performing it right before our eyes. We also pause to honor David L. Abell and Clark Spangler, two essential figures in synthesizer history whose whose work helped bring instruments like the CS-80 into the spotlight
Along the way, Steve shares stories from working with David Paich and David Foster, and how his collaborations shaped their sound. You’ll also see a beautiful portamento and glissando demonstration tied to "After the Love Has Gone" by Earth, Wind & Fire and 'Serious Music' by Hall & Oates, revealing how Steve approached expressive movement on the keyboard.
Steve then breaks open his 'go-to' CS-80 panel settings and shows how he used them on 'Rosanna' and 'Mama' by Toto, offering a rare look at the real-world musical decisions behind those songs.
Finally, Steve and I talk about the true secret sauce behind so many signature songs from the ’80s and ’90s, from Toto and beyond—the attention to detail, musical sensitivity, and collaboration between specialists, all working selflessly in service of a great song.
This is a rare, in-the-room masterclass with one of the great musical minds of our time."

video upload by VoxModula Archives

"A non-spoken modular patch performance focused on FM percussive and wooden-like textures, created using the Buchla TipTop Audio 258t and 259t oscillators.

In this session, frequency modulation is used to shape short, transient-rich sounds that resemble struck wood and organic percussive elements.
The patch is fully improvised and recorded live, no post-processing.

🎛️ Modules used
• 258t Oscillator
• 259t Oscillator
• 292t Quad Lowpass Gate
• 245t Sequential Voltage Source
• 266t Source of Uncertainty
• Buchla / Tiptop modular system

🎧 What’s explored
• FM techniques for percussive sound design

In the late nineteen seventies, Korg was apparently determined to open the world of synthesizers to more than just keyboard players.

Introduced in 1979 just a year after the classic MS-10 and MS-20 the MS-03 converts incoming audio signals into a range of control voltage signals. The MS-03 can drive just about any monophonic analog synthesizer, with outputs that support both the Moog/Arp/Eurorack standard of one volt per octave, and the less common Korg/Yamaha standard of hertz to volts. The unit also has two different types of gate outputs.

For users of the Moog/Arp/Eurorack standard there is a tuning and width control. The tune control is used to "tune" the MS-20 to the attached synth, and the "width" control adjust the precise range of one octave.

Korg MS-20: The circuitry of the MS-03 is similar to the Pitch to Voltage circuit in the Korg MS-20, but a comparison of the two converters shows the MS-03 is faster and more accurate than the MS-20.

Korg MS-03: The MS-03 has many of the same controls as found on the Korg X911 Guitar Synthesizer without the synthesizer components. Features found on both units include footswitch-operated Portamento, Synthesizer "Hold" and "Cancel" functions.

[Condition]

This MS-03 is in perfect working condition and in Very Good condition.
This unit was checked by professional technician.

Soma Messeiver - Shortwave based ambiant musical instrument

Note: links to listings are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this eBay listing

You can find a demo previously posted here.

"From the SOMA website:

MESSEIVER is an irrational device for exploring the world of primal, wild radio reception – the way it was first experienced by the pioneers of radiocommunication.

MESSEIVER – is a shortwave receiver that is capable of receiving different stations from all around the Earth. Its peculiarity is that it doesn’t have the classic input tuning circuit, which lets you select a single station. Instead, it captures a big part of radio ether as it is. This way you can listen to many radio stations at once from around the globe. The set of stations that you can hear, their loudness and sound are defined by numbers of constantly changing global natural parameters. Weather, solar activity, cosmic particles, clouds and dozens of other phenomena define radio waves propagation, turning the world into a global DJ that makes a unique mix of radio stations here and now, exclusively for you. More details you can find in the manual and demo video.

MESSEIVER has a luxury vintage handmade build with brass inlay, wide range old school speaker, custom coil, NOS germanium diodes, vintage neon bulb and other things which make the impression and vibes of it unique."

ERICA SYNTHS HEXDRUMS 09 // LØSTLVLS

video upload by LØSTLVLS

"A slightly dirtier HexDrums workout today, this time with the Master drive gain all the way down but at 100% for a slight definition boost. I think this is my favourite setting. Definitely makes things sound hairier without going into mangled territory.

Apologies for when my head gets in the way of the camera - will attempt to stay further back in the future. :)
