From Scractch on Wunderkammer WoO.1 | OMEGA dB

video upload by OMEGA dB

"Wunderkammer sent me their WoO.1 prototype to explore, and I dove in immediately. I built a beat from scratch using only the unit’s built-in sounds, experimenting with its arpeggiator not just for melodies, but to quantize the kick and hi-hat. Since the WoO.1 is a looper and sampler without a traditional sequencer or mixer, this first contact felt raw and inspiring, and within minutes, a compelling beat emerged.

For me, the WoO.1 is like a musical notepad: sketch your ideas, save loops to its internal memory, and build your own library of creative phrases. It also has a built-in battery and can act as a speaker, making it a truly portable creative tool.

The name Wunderkammer itself means cabinet of curiosities in German, a place where marvels and rare objects were collected to inspire awe. In a way, the WoO.1 feels just like that: a little box of sonic wonders, always ready to surprise you.

The WoO.1 is already available for funding on Kickstarter 👉 https://wunderkammer.kckb.me/omegadb

X1L3 - ALLEYKAT - HOMEWARD BOUND - 8580 SID - revision 3 test demo

video upload by X1L3

"Testing the new revision 3 build.

To hop back to 1982 and quote Robotron 2084:
'initial tests indicate all systems ok'....

Nothing fancy. Just pitch and pulse width modulation on two voices. It sounds nice for so little. Makes me think of a melancholy Commodore 64 Radiohead. I like how with no pulse width modulation it sounds basic and cute, then when you hit it with pulse width sweeps it's suddenly the trademark gnarly sound of the C64 📺🕹️❤️💚💙

With the board fixes and minor code tweaks at revision 3, it appears that everything works as it should. The module is complete 😊

Have verified it to work flawlessly with 6581 and 8580 SIDs. It also works perfectly with the Swinsid and Open source SID. I'd imagine an Armsid will work too.

Purrrrrrrrrrfect 🐈🐾🐾🐾

Will keep this one for later. There's a nice demo tune to be had there when all the control in my rig is free again to build it 🎵🎵🎵"

Seinfeld Bass Battle

video upload by General Midi Guy ⚡

George is the only one that looks like himself, ableit with a mustache. Wouldn't mind hearing a New Order/Joy Division Bass Battle.

"Is the Seinfeld theme played by a Korg M1 or by the 360 Systems Midi Bass, lets find out :p both have been credited Seinfeld Bass on various Internet forums.

This test is not 100% as i dont have the same mixer, fx etc 🛸

https://www.vice.com/en/article/689n7...

https://www.rhythmicrobot.com/product..."

"Remember Seinfeld? Remember that poppin’ slap bass sound all over the show – in the titles, in the end credits, in every sting and transition? Well, this is the little box of tricks that made that sound. The 360 Systems MIDI Bass was an early sampled bass unit, later upgraded to a Pro version that rackmounted. It was a limited but (for its time) powerful-sounding machine that had swappable EPROMS to access additional sounds. We managed to score an original tabletop MIDI Bass plus a set of EPROMS covering a range of both classic and unusual sounds with a distinctly 80s vibe. There is, of course, ‘that’ Seinfeld Slap bass; but if you don’t fancy reliving the glory days of American comedy, there are seven other sounds to choose from – a great Fender Jazz bass, through a punchy 80s synth bass to a rather cool Stick bass (think Tony Levin playing Peter Gabriel’s live gigs and you’ve got it)… and more.

MIDI Bass hardware Kontakt instrumentThe MIDI Bass is a simple little device – MIDI notes go in, bass sounds come out – so we’ve kept things simple for our recreation, which just adds some useful compression and tube saturation controls and leaves the rest up to you and your funk."

"Just running some synth sounds through this guitar fx unit to hear what it sounds like. Dont remember what synths were used as i recorded this a few months ago :p but it might have been a behringer boog module.

What is good about this Roland effects unit is that its 100% old digital (i think) :p it also sounds good with guitar but more fun to use synthesizer etc.."

Think the Arturia PolyBrute is just about lush pads and vintage analog sounds? Think again. In this video, I explore the darker, more aggressive side of the PolyBrute and show how features like the Metalizer, Brute Factor, Morph, ladder filter drive, and distortion effects can create brutal industrial textures. If you're into industrial music, EBM, dark electronic music or just want to hear what this incredible analog synth is really capable of, this one's for you."

Partials & Discrepancies 1.0.5 | New One Revolution Setting Explained

video upload by Unusable Engineering

"A short video showing the new One Revolution setting in Partials & Discrepancies 1.0.5.

This update is a small, but useful. The main new feature is the One Revolution behavior in the slot sequencer when running in clocked modes.

If both KBD Reset and KBD Next are turned on in a clocked mode, the sequencer will now do one full revolution on key down and then stop at the last step.

That opens up some nice behavior depending on the rate:

at higher rates, you can get more static sounds with quite wild transients
at slower rates, it works really nicely for sounds like pads that settle into place over time

This video goes through how it works and shows a few improvised examples.

Version 1.0.5 also includes slightly smoother node dragging.

Precision Analogue Filter vs. Valve Timbre Sculpting // Swell from Bartola Instruments

video upload by DivKid and Bartola Instruments

"Here we have Swell the new filter and valve (tube for those in the US) sculpting Eurorack module from Bartola Instruments. This is the first commercially released Eurorack module from Bartola and follows many years of valve hi fi work and hundreds of Eurorack prototypes made in super small runs for musicians and friends. Swell offers masses of customisable sound sculpting marrying its precision low pass filtering with high flexible valve control. Whether it's cleaner, yet warm and gently compressed waves or all out untamed chaos there's a lot to explore as you'll see in the patches."

Additional SYNTH CITY Listings

"Hilariously overbuilt and overengineered, this ASR sampler was Ensoniq's flagship, and with compatibility to the EPS and EPS16+ there's plenty of cool sounds that you can use right out of the gate.

The ASR-10 (Advanced Sampling Recorder) was essentially the third generation of the EPS series of samplers, sharing the same basic architecture and user interface as the earlier EPS Classic and EPS-16 Plus. The ASR-10, like its predecessors, was a true performance orientated sampling workstation, and did not require a computer or additional equipment in order to create a complete song. It included a powerful and flexible effects unit, polyphonic aftertouch, an advanced MIDI sequencer, load-while-playing abilities, and a powerful multi-layered synthesis engine. The supplied "Musician's Manual" lived up to Ensoniq's documentation practice, with a highly readable, very hands-on and quite complete description of the device. There was even an included tutorial that covered many features of the machine, including sampling and sequencing."

GForce & Sequential Prophet 5 | PAD | Sounds Like This (No Talking)

video uploads by Sounds Like This

"What does the GForce & Sequential PROHET 5 VST / AU Synth sound like? It sounds like this!

Prophet~5 was released by Sequential Circuits in 1978, as Dave Smith’s five-voice analogue synthesizer brought polyphony, patch memory and hands-on control together in a way that reshaped how musicians wrote, recorded and performed with synthesis.

While there are several software versions of the Prophet 5, this is the first-ever to be officially endorsed by Sequential."

MARS Vacuum-Tube Synthesizer: The Most Aggressive Modern Synth I've Ever Tested

"What happens when you build a vacuum tube-based hybrid synthesizer in a Soviet space lab and send it back from the future? Today we’re demoing, reviewing, and explaining MARS from Eternal Engine Electronic Musical Instruments — one of the strangest, most beautiful, and most aggressive modern synthesizers I’ve ever played.

MARS is often described as a four-voice polyphonic tube synthesizer, but architecturally it’s more accurately a paraphonic synthesizer. The four digital oscillator voices can be played across multiple notes, but they all share the same tube-based filter and vactrol-based amplifier. That puts MARS more in the tradition of instruments like the Korg Mono/Poly and Formanta Polivoks than a conventional analog polysynth.

In this video, I walk through the full architecture of the Eternal Engine MARS: the digital oscillator section, mono / duo / poly voice modes, pulse-width modulation, ensemble mode, FM synthesis, modulation matrix, envelopes, LFO, sample & hold, the gorgeous Nixie lamp interface, the resonant vacuum tube filter, and the asymmetric tube overdrive that gives this synth its raw, snarling character.

This is not a safe, polite, modern analog synth. MARS is boutique, unusual, heavy, beautifully built, and absolutely vicious when pushed. The tube filter and drive section give it a sound that feels alive in a way most modern synthesizers don’t — somewhere between vintage analog synth, industrial bass machine, experimental sound design box, and Soviet sci-fi artifact.

If you’re into industrial music, EBM, darkwave, synthwave, experimental electronic music, vintage synthesizers, boutique synths, tube distortion, paraphonic synthesis, analog filters, FM basses, PWM pads, or Polivoks-style aggression, MARS is worth hearing.

I also talk through who I think this synth is actually for — and who should probably pass on it. Because while I absolutely adore the sound, MARS is not a cheap “do everything” synth, and it’s not trying to compete with mass-market analog polysynths. It’s a character instrument. A monster. A special machine for people who want something truly different."

Erica Synths Introduces x 112db RAZORNATOR Stereo Effects Unit

Erica Synths Razornator: Review and Demo

video upload by Starsky Carr

"Erica Synths Razornator is the 4th 112dB collaboration FX unit and it's a resonator like no other. In this hands-on walkthrough I build an entire track (strings, dubby stabs and thunderous bass) from nothing but short pulses of noise fed into its Karplus-Strong like resonators. If you want to know what the Razornator actually sounds like before you buy, this deep-dive demo is for you.

The Razornator packs 10 resonators (five stereo pairs), a resonant low-pass filter, +24dB of input gain, a built-in compressor and an envelope follower — all fully MIDI controllable. Originally a 1983 Karplus & Strong algorithm for plucked-string and percussive tones, Erica Synths and 112dB have turned it into a wildly flexible tone-generation and sound-mangling machine. I run through the signal path, the root/offset tuning, the gorgeous presets by Eraldo Bernocchi, and push it hard with synths, hi-hats and kicks. Resonator, but not as we know it."

23:00 Final Thoughts



"A unique stereo FX unit with an algorithm developed by Dutch company 112dB, the Razornator features 5 chromatically tuned resonating delay lines that can emulate the resonance of physical objects - bodies of instruments, rooms, structures. Chromatic tuning of the resonating delay lines makes the effect particularly musical, because it allows for aligning them in chord-like intervals, while the built-in envelope follower adds dynamics to the processed signal. Featuring 12 parameters for detailed sound design, save/recall functions for all parameters, MIDI control over all parameters and a sleek aluminium case to match our lineup of compact desktop units, the Razornator will let your setup take flight in any live show, studio or sonic experiment.

The Razornator combines several well considered and tuned “modules” for stereo audio processing with the aim of altering the harmonic content of the incoming signal. The signal path starts with an audio GAIN STAGE that boosts signals up to +24dB (it can effectively act as an analogue overdrive), then the signal is fed through the lowpass FILTER with a RESONANCE control and after filter treatment it passes through five chromatically tuned DELAY-BASED RESONATORS that can be manually tuned or controlled by the ENVELOPE FOLLOWER. After the resonators, the signal is summed and limited by the COMPRESSOR, then mixed with the dry signal and passed through the EQUALIZER and finally is sent to BALANCED OUTPUT stage.

Especially once you learn the sequencer and how much you can do with it creatively. The LFO's and assignable envelope are also very cool. It has a lot of ways to modify your sound. Fun Stuff.
