I keep telling myself I'm going to set up a camera and actually record the video of my playing these, and then getting lazy about it. One of these weeks I'll actually get it done."

Cymbal Legio: Voice based on granular metallurgy on the Legio platform

video upload by Noise Engineering

"Cymbal Legio is a granular percussion voice built for tight hi-hats to crashes and rides.

Get a Legio module and swap to this firmware today:
https://noiseengineering.us/products/...

Let's start with Type and Alloy. Together, these give you a range of different cymbal characters, from tight metallic hits to bigger, more resonant sounds.

Decay controls how long each hit rings out, while Tone lets you shape the brightness and character of the cymbal.

Then there's Morph. This blends between different grain sources.

And pressing the Morph encoder gives you a quick mute.

The Mix inputs let you bring other sounds into the Cymbal and mix them right alongside it.

Cymbal is just one way to transform your Legio. When you're ready to move beyond crashes and rides, check out the other synth voices, effects, resonators, and more for free with a USB connection.

23 Firmwares.One Legio.

4ms Podcast Ep. 5: Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith

video upload by 4ms Company

"Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith found her voice when a neighbor lent her a Buchla 100 synthesizer in 2011. Buchla, and other vintage rare synthesizers became the heart of a body of work that includes Euclid, Ears (named one of the best albums of 2016 by Pitchfork, NPR Music, and Resident Advisor), The Kid, The Mosaic of Transformation, Let's Turn It Into Sound, and last year's Gush and Thoughts on the Future as well as her upcoming album RUIN: It’s Not Just Music - which comes out Oct 2nd.

She's made records with synth pioneer Suzanne Ciani (Sunergy), composer Emile Mosseri (I Could Be Your Dog / I Could Be Your Moon), and Hot Chip's Joe Goddard (Neptunes). She's remixed Max Richter, Perfume Genius, Danny Elfman, and King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard, been remixed by Four Tet, and scored the film Omni Loop, starring Mary-Louise Parker and Ayo Edebiri.

This year she launched her own label, Someone Special, and its first release is her new album, Ruin: It's Not Just Music, out Oct 2nd - which is a Drum and Bass inspired album.

In this episode we get deeper with Kaitlyn's background, philosophy, and creative process."

Synthesizers.com Introduces Q108 Amplifier DIY KIT

"We're so excited to share with you the new Q108 Amplifier DIY KIT!!

The Q108 Voltage Controlled Amplifier is a staple of any synthesizer system.

The amplitude of any waveform can be controlled by another signal such as an envelope generator, sequencer, oscillator, etc.

An Initial Gain control allows manual adjustment of the amplitude and a Level Control determines the impact of the control signal.

Both Linear and Exponential responses are available to simulate a variety of real-world sounds. Positive and negative output signal polarities are provided.

Two inputs are provided for mixing."

The Sounds We Forget To Hear

video upload by Starsky Carr

"The joy of sound, before it becomes music. A wind chime looping in the woods at Superbooth, La Monte Young's Composition 1960 No. 7 in a Liverpool theatre, and one thick, warm tone from the AJH Synth RadioPhonic that I couldn't stop playing.. 🎧 Put this on headphones or big speakers - the bass is lovely.

Why do we remember a melody but not a sound? Why is Superstition not Superstition without the clav, or In the Air Tonight without those drums? And when did we stop just listening?

Which single sound gives YOU a physical reaction? Tell me in the comments - I read every one, and I'm collecting favourites.

Emulating the OPZ the HARD way

video upload by plgDavid

chipresearch episode 0x09 00:00 Intro 01:35 MSX Origins 03:05 Arcade Uses 08:02 OPM 21:32 OPP 25:38 OPZ 29:24 OPZ2 32:22 Outro rant

Once again, we've done it. We've meticulously recreated the original OPM (YM2151), OPP (YM2164), OPZ (YM2414) and OPZ2 (YM2424) sound chips in deep emulation from numerous digital captures, including the very many undocumented features. For instance, chipsynth OPMZ allows you to use the OPM's CSM mode in music. We also have a full recreation of the exact pattern and mechanics of its often neglected noise generator, and all the exact quirks of its LFO.

The OPZ chip used in the TX81Z was completely undocumented before the development of chipsynth OPMZ, and so we've done a full reverse engineering, discovering all the mysterious register overlays and previously unknown functionality such as internal volume ramping.

We've also done a deep dive on how exactly Yamaha themselves used the chips in the DX100, DX27, DX21, TX81Z and DX11 synthesizers, including their behaviour and analogue output stage and the DX21's chorus, making the whole package virtually identical.

Just as before, chipsynth OPMZ is based on human researched and programmed emulation code."

Currents & Nostalgia - Coming synth from Unusable Engineering - First Preview - 47 presets - No Talk

video upload by Unusable Engineering

"This is the first video showing of some sound examples of the coming software synthesizer from Unusable Engineering.

I am playing almost 50 preset from Currents & Nostalgia - the first 6 minutes are fully dry, after that I have added reverb from Geometry Reverb (which is free with any paid purchase from unusable.net).

The synthesizer is based around 2 circuit modelled oscillators based on a sawtooth-core of my own design. It is a quite classic, simple synthesizer design, brought a bit more to life by two slot sequencers.

The main idea behind the synth has been to build a synth that was easy to understand and master, while having an inspiring core sound. There are no features hidden in menus, everything available is shown in the interface.

The plan is to release the synth in November 2026. It will be available for Windows and MacOS as VST3i and AU. Current bundle owners will of course get a discount. But I have not decided on a final price yet.

All the Best,
Rasmus Nyåker
Unusable Engineering"
