Yamaha RS7000 Melodic Jungle track
video upload by MIDERA
"Really haven't done much recently. Sorry... guess I'm just busy with life. My whole studio was torn apart and now I'm just trying to make it nicer. Working on my book. Doing summer stuff...
Used small amount of NI Raum for reverb, otherwise just internal FX for the RS7000.
Sadly, the drums seem mixed a bit loud, but since it was recorded L/R in one go, I can't separate them and I'm just not motivated to redo it right now."
Generative #ambient #synth patch: Juno 6 and DX 7 sounds mangled and driven by Shoal on DistingNT
video upload by voltryx
"A walkthrough of a slow-evolving generative ambient patch built around the Expert Sleepers Disting NT and the Shoal plug-in (https://github.com/ormermodular/shoal).
Shoal generates eight channels of notes and gates, which I route internally through CV-to-MIDI and send to an AMYboard running a mixture of Juno-6 and DX7-inspired synth voices. The audio then returns to the Disting NT for bitcrushing and Kirbinator-based mangling before passing through the Delay Magneto algorithm on the FX Aid.
This is only my first exploration of Shoal or perhaps just dipping my toes in. I look at its global scale and tempo settings, per-channel sequence lengths and evolution controls, plus the mute, density and note-range controls available from the main page.
I’m also using a small Python app I vibe-coded to assign built-in and custom AMYboard presets to different MIDI channels. Let me know in the comments if you’d like me to put it on GitHub.
Patch:
Disting NT → Shoal → CV-to-MIDI → AMYboard
AMYboard → Disting NT Bitcrusher/Kirbinator → FX Aid Delay Magneto → Mixer

M-Vave FM-1 | Guide for Patch Initialization and the Envelopes
video upload by MiyafujiP
"I've never owned a DX7, so for me, the envelopes on the FM-1 (based on the DX7 engine) were a little confusing at first. I researched about them and experimented a bit, and am sharing my findings in this video.
Also, sharing how to initialize a patch since that's also a function that's a little hidden.
Hope this helps somebody! =)"

CP-88, wavestate, norns shield granular piano Electronica | Blue and White ombre 2026-08-22 by atnr
video upload by atnr
"An electronica piece featuring piano and lingering electronic textures.
This piece was created with the wavestate, norns shield, and CP-88.
On the wavestate, synth pads are performed. The output is processed through the MOOD MKII with delay while micro loops are layered over the sound.
On the CP-88, piano is performed with a deep amount of its built-in reverb.
On the norns shield, a recorded piano phrase is processed granularly using graintopia. The output is then processed through LOST+FOUND with delay and reverb."

Lifeforms SV-1 Mini / Eurorack In the Works
via Pittsburgh Modular Confluence
"Update on the Lifeforms SV-1 Mini. We sharpened our pencils and did all the math. Retail will be $599. That is $200 less than the original SV-1! Production SHOULD be finished by mid December and they SHOULD be shipping to buyers mid-January. All great news. So I want feedback on preorders. Should we take preorders? When should they start? The first run will be 300 units. Thought?"
"We will have production test units the middle of September. They will have the production panels and case. And that is what would be demoed for the preorders."

Bob Moog 2003 NAMM Interview – Hosted by Frank Serafine
video upload by moogfoundation
matrix note: note what Bob Moog says after 5:18. Many of you might know that Herb Deutsch suggested the keyboard as the main interface for the Moog synthesizer, while Morton Subotnic had an influence on Don Buchla in the development of the synthesizer as a repacement for working with tape for new sound creation and manipulation. Don Buchla did not want to limit the interface to a 12 note keyboard. Buchla has become synonymous with atonal music, and not viewing the purpose of a synthesizer as an instrument meant to synthesize known instruments, but rather as a sonic easel, hence the Buchla Music Easel. Moog in general is credited with the direction of keyboard based synthesis. It's fascinating hearing Bob Moog essentially say otherwise. This interview is from 2003, before internet discussions between East and West coast synthesis took off.
Video description:
"Please donate to the Bob Moog Foundation to help make presentations like this possible: https://bit.ly/ContributeBMF
We are excited to share this never-before-seen 2003 interview with Bob Moog! Here, Bob shares his original inspirations and insightful speculation on the future of electronic music. He also gives a brief demonstration of the then-newly released Minimoog Voyager.
The interview was hosted by Frank Serafine (April 6th, 1953 – September 12th, 2018), a lauded American motion picture sound designer, sound editor, and composer.
Many thanks to Harold LaRue of haroldlaruemastering.com for editing the audio for us. He did a masterful job of editing out so much background noise from NAMM including vacuuming, someone playing a keyboard in the background, and so much more.
We lost Bob Moog on August 21st, 2005, and are proud to commemorate him and his legacy today on the 20th anniversary of the Bob Moog Foundation.
Help us carry Bob's legacy forward, inspiring future generations at the intersection of science, music, history, and innovation. Support our work by doing one (or all) of the following:

A new kind of audio FX - Sparkling Riser
video upload by SynTesla
"The Sparkling riser is a brand new kind of audio FX
This effect is achieved by stacking 12 lines of 'micro-delays' lasting a few milliseconds (6 lines per audio channel) The delayed sound is mixed back into the original sound, creating a comb filter.
Each delay line has a feedback loop, and the delay time is modulated by several LFOs. In addition to the LFOs, we have 12 VCAs (1 per delay line) whose levels are synchronized to the phases of each LFO.
But when the effect is on the "infinite rise" mode, as soon as we apply randomization to the LFO phases, something very strange happens:
'phantom notes' appear. We could compare this effect to concentric waves colliding to create a splash—a “spark” that, in our example, generates notes based on the frequencies and harmonic content of the sound. This 'spark' gives the effect its name: 'Sparkling Riser.'
This effect is directly inspired by a project we're working on with electronics genius Yves Usson."

"'Brain Controlling' is a true gem from Pentagrams of Discordia’s The Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia EP. Here’s my take on it.
It’s a deceptively simple track—and an absolute earworm.
Looking forward to hearing what Pentagrams of Discordia have in store for August 28!

Melodic ARP2500 with SciFi video - by Benge
video upload by Memetune Studio
"Another track from the new Benge album
This track is made on a vintage ARP 2500 modular system from 1970. A series of looper modules made by 2hp were used to construct the music in real time
The ARP 2500 was known as the concert grand of synths. This is because it is so magnificent in every way possible
You can watch the original performance here:
• Summersend - ARP2500 [posted here]
This video pays homage to one of my favourite science fiction illustrators Syd Mead, who was responsible for many amazing designs, including some of the world building in Blade Runner and Tron. I have tried to bring them to life by putting them through the Memetune VideoLab...enjoy!"
