JHaible TAU Phaser 'The Pipe' 2026 by Random*Source

video upload by Cinematic Laboratory

"Today I am proud to show off the new TAU 2026 phaser edition from JHaible x Random*Source for Eurorack. Obviously the core 'Pipe' sound didn't change because it needs to remain faithful to its history and heritage. It's not supposed to sound different from the previous R*S version. But it does. This is because the TAU '26 features two inputs and two CV inputs instead of one. Also the inverted (-) V/OCT is dropped. Visually, the panel now matches the Serge Modular line so it neatly blends in with your Serge 3U gear.

So is it a 20 pole- or an 18 pole phaser? Is it even important? No. What's truly important is the PIPE configuration of 20 transistors in a classic ladder topology. Your input will actually flow through the circuitry like air in a tube and I think it's absolutely stunning when you run noise through it. However, when you bring a lush pad, the TAU will redefine 'lush' into a pseudo stereo swirl that doesn't make you seasick.

When you crank up the feedback and hit it with some trigger 'stick' or chain, the TAU will make remarkable percussion. The Tau is also available in 4U. It's still a Haible, but it carries the 'Serge Modular' branding and comes with an extra mixing panel.

Dreadbox Polyend Medusa

video upload by ollilaboratories

"I have always wanted a Medusa ever since i tried it at Superbooth (i think?) many years ago, i found it very intriguing, both layout / workflow with the grid and the very special sound engine. For some reason i never got to the point actually buying one until the other day when i stumbled over one used for a very reasonable price. I mean, i dont even really have the space for it.. i just knew this was the time to get one. :)

What you see and hear in this video is me taking it for a quick testrun, i love its quirkiness, how one can assign the voices are being played which creates some really fun happy accidents all over the place. The grid is quantized into Dorian scale, root in D.

FX from the Vongon Ultrasheer Reverb and Red Panda Particle, EHX 720 Stereo Looper from for the intro loop recording. All is recorded live straight on 2 track with some minor touch up post, e.g limiter and little bit of EQ at the top.

Cheers and Enjoy!"

Exploring the Serge Modular Stereo VCFQ #sergemodular #eurorack #modularsynth

video upload by The Machines Won

"Exploring the legendary VCFQ filter in stereo!! It's a perfect filter to pair with the medusa. I hope you enjoy listening to these patches as much as I enjoyed making them.

There are some jams at the end if you want to hear more musical applications with the filter. A few pinging sections of course, some pads, ambient, industrial and synth wavey goodness.

Lots to explore with this versatile filter, now made better in Stereo!"

Synthesizer-Wettbewerb, Beitrag "Ambient Jam"

video upload by KEYBOARDS

"Ambient Jam with Polyend/Dreadbox Medusa and a few iPad apps.

A total of only 6 tracks, a simple chord progression, but with Probability/Random Notes from the Medusa and a few effects. It's all very chilled out and only using my "desktop setup" in my office. Since I usually only make music with hardware, this is a nice change and a challenge for me.

To visualize the whole thing more appealingly, I used a freely available NASA video in the background, which can be used for non-commercial purposes. The video was created with Adobe Premiere Pro. Everything else in the video, and of course the music, is mine.

I use the Medusa with Probability for melodic to whiny synth sounds, mostly with the wavetable oscillators. During recording, I play around with the filters and oscillators. The Medusa sequencer is synced to AUM by Kymatica.

I also recorded the bass beforehand using the Medusa and its analog oscillators. This is played back via the Koala sampler.

The track begins with a synth pad from Synthscraper/Igor Vasiliev

and two tracks of 'synthetic' water (one via the Koala Sampler, the other via the Spacecraft granular sampler). I tinkered around until I managed to create something reminiscent of flowing water from the noise and other sounds.

Klevgrand's Hillman, a phaser-equipped organ synth, is used to give the track a bit of a retro flair.

To increase the dynamics, Klevgrand's REAMP, a tube amp simulation, is later used.

Reverb from Eventide (BlackHole) was used except on the bass.

The mastering was done with GrandFinale 2, which was already in the signal path during recording."
