Tre Modular - State of Mind (SEQ first look)
video upload by Tre Modular
Additional State of Mind posts
"In this video we want to show you State of Mind's SEQ (Sequencing) engine.
SEQ moves through your saved snapshots. What is a snapshot? A snapshot holds all four channel voltages at the time you saved them, and State of Mind keeps eight of them. Put them in any order and SEQ plays them in a loop.
How it gets from one snapshot to the next is up to you, jump straight to the next, glide, or morph slowly across the whole step, with eight shapes to choose from. The rate runs from one step every twenty seconds for slow modulation to twenty steps a second, and the speed control pot is tapered so most of its travel covers musical tempos. Add swing and play forward, in reverse, back and forth, or in random order. You choose!
Every channel can go its own way. Give each channel its own clock division, its own shape and its own swing, so a bass line can move every four steps under a melody that moves on every one. Each channel also has its own gate pattern and gate length control.
Scenes take things even further. A scene saves all eight snapshots together with their sequence, tempo, shapes, swing, clock divisions and gate patterns, and State of Mind holds eight scenes. Switch scenes while it plays, and the change waits for the end of the loop, or chain them in any order to make a sequence of sequences.
In this patch, State of Mind controls the pitch of two oscillators, one playing the lead and one the bass. All four of the lead oscillator's waveforms go through Permida, and State of Mind chooses which one plays when. The bass goes through Shape Mod, and State of Mind moves the wave shaper's CV with a continuous shape, so its tone morphs smoothly from step to step.

MANNER - Algorithmic Sequencer (VST / Standalone)
video upload by Laboratory 0
"MANNER is a MIDI sequencer that picks its own notes. As on a step sequencer, you set each part's rhythm; instead of placing pitches, you give it a key, a style and, if you like, the chords. It chooses the notes by the rules of harmony, voice leading and form, and plays them with a player's phrasing.
• Human manner. Timing drifts as a player's does; phrases slow down, speed up, and land back on the bar line; loudness follows the phrase.
• Song form. Sections of four phrases: an idea, its answer, a contrast and the return (A A′ B A″). Variation sets how far each section strays, from an 8-bar loop to a new variation every section; each part's Improv sets how often that part changes.
• Chords that go somewhere, toward a cadence and home. Pin the ones you want, or play it your chords: it follows what you hold, bass note included, and plays the rest.
• 4 parts (Bass, Chords, Arpeggio, Melody), each with its own rhythm and one of 27 styles, from Alberti to walking bass.
• A take is the seed for its random choices, not a stored piece: change any setting and the notes change; change nothing and it plays exactly the same notes, so a bounce matches what you heard.
• Drag the last 16 bars into your DAW as a MIDI clip.
MIDI only: use any instrument. VST3, AU and a Logic MIDI FX on macOS; VST3 on Windows; a standalone app on both.

Inside the Legendary ARP 2500 - Every Module Explained
video upload by Anthony Marinelli Music and Rosen Sound
"I’m joined by my friend and synth technician to the stars Rob Rosen for a deep dive into one of the most legendary synthesizers ever built: the ARP 2500.
We go module by module through the instrument, exploring what makes the 2500 so unique, from its architecture and standout modules to the unmistakable character of its sound. We also look at how the ARP 2500 was configured and priced when it was introduced in 1970, how those systems compare to what they’re worth today, and why these instruments have become so desirable to collectors, studios and musicians.
And we don’t just talk about it. Throughout the video, I perform three solo pieces on the ARP 2500 to show the raw sound power that lives in this instrument.
If you’ve ever wondered what makes the ARP 2500 so special, and why it remains one of the most sought-after synthesizers more than 50 years later, this is a close-up look at the instrument from the inside out."
MICROPHONIC: put the tube voltage back in your synths!
video upload by manmade madman
"MICROPHONIC: in the early days of electronics, analog devices were made with vacuum tubes and performed everything from logic to output amplification. The first Theremins were made with vacuum tube technology-- it was all that was available. Vacuum tubes were everywhere and in everything. But they had a flaw: they were inconsistent to manufacture, expensive to maintain, took time to warm up, generated heat, and could burn out like a lightbulb. Eventually, the world went solid state. It was cheaper, easy to maintain, and lasted longer.
But something got lost. Inside of tube mechanics were red hot voltages. As it turned out, these voltages were also somehow musical to our ears. Once the world transitioned to solid state, people started to miss the "tube sound" which was simply imperfect in a perfect way.
Meet MICROPHONIC.

How to Turn Serum into Vintage Classics
video upload by Starsky Carr
Also see He Put 6 Classic Synths Inside the MiniFreak
"Max 4 Live - turning Serum 2 into a vintage synth chameleon. Let’s turn it into a Jupiter-8, Prophet-5, Oberheim OB-X, Juno and Korg DW-8000—with hardware-sampled wavetables and classic synth controls inside Ableton Live.
The trick is working within the original synth’s limits. Match its oscillators, filters, envelopes and modulation options, and you start programming differently. Add unison detune and a little vintage character, and things get wonderfully wonky.
🎹 GET THE DEVICES, PRESETS & FREE SYNTH ARCHITECTURE GUIDES
https://www.starskycarr.com/patches
In this video I demonstrate my Classic Synth Mode Max 4 Live devices for Serum 2:
• YOU-NO-6 — Juno-inspired PWM, sub oscillator and chorus
• THEPRO-5 — Prophet-5-inspired Poly-Mod, oscillator sync and classic analogue tones
• SUPITER-8 — Jupiter-8-inspired strings, brass, cross modulation and unison
• OB-WAN — Oberheim OB-X-inspired basses and big filter sweeps
• DIGI-8K — Korg DW-8000-inspired digital waveforms, six-stage envelopes, delay and arpeggiator
You’ll hear how the controls interact with Serum, how vintage mode adds variation, and why recreating a synth’s architecture matters as much as capturing its waveforms.
These are my take on the classic instruments’ sound and workflow, with Serum 2 providing the sound engine. The free architecture guides are also useful for trying these ideas on your own synths."

"Short session on modular as pain therapy...
I prepared this short session a few days ago and recorded here today.
It is inspired by a Tangerine Dream track on "Mojave plan". It is far to be my favorite TD album, but it is perfect for a very short session.
Sorry for the bad video quality. The first video I do record with a refurbished iPhone 12 I got a few days ago. I'll have to check why the quality is so terrible compared to the old iPhone 8 I had."

"Unlock the true potential of your synthesizer! 🎹 In this video, we dive deep into the engine room of sound design to explore 40 distinct waveform algorithms. Whether you are looking to create searing leads, lush pads, or evolving cinematic textures, understanding how these algorithms interact is the key to breaking free from presets.
Most synths offer basic Sine, Saw, and Square waves—but what happens when you combine them aqnd add some "funky math magic" to it? In this comprehensive guide, we break down 40 different algorithmic combinations and demonstrate exactly how they shape your sound."

Kawai K5 - Custom Ambient & Analog Sounds (FREE)
video upload by LFOstore
"The K5 is a digital synthesizer that employs additive synthesis harmonic-building as its method of sound creation.
DOWNLOAD: https://lfo.sellfy.store/p/kawai-k5-c...
Basically, you can vary up to 126 harmonic levels generated by a sine wave via a bar-graph type graphic display to create, shape and change your sound.
De-tuning can also be used to thicken or augment sounds too. In addition, each harmonic has an independent choice of four 6-stage envelopes for further tweaking and shaping.
The K5 is also 15-part multi-timbral.
Sounds can be split, layered, overlapped and de-tuned for creating thicker sounds or ensembles of instruments and sounds.
It has 48 internal patches for memory storage as well as a 48 patch external memory card.
There are also 48 patches for the multi-mode settings as well.
If you are happy owner K5 keyboard or rack version, we made custom 48 Multis & bunch of single presets.
Instructions of how to are inside.
