What is The Vanilla Synthesizer? It's Ready, That's What
via the STG Soundlabs/muSonics Electronic Newsletter:
Is it The Vanilla Synthesizer or the muSonics TVS?
I started working on this project a year and a half ago.
Originally my thought process was to make a new American format synthesiser that could be sold as modules, kits, and bare boards. I was concerned about the future of the format, and I felt a new line of basic modules and infrastructure at a variety of price points was important. I still do.
STG Soundlabs was a failure because I made things that ultimately the eurorack market simply did not want. Yes, I sold some, and will continue to maintain the line as best as I can, but it's very hard to find photos of eurorack installations with STG Soundlabs modules in them, but rare to find a nice big man-sized synthesiser without my modules in it.
Another thing I wanted to do was teach myself how to do my own engineering. It didn't start that way, but it became that way. I'd been a hardware product developer since 2005 but never actually laid out a circuit board. That is no longer true, and I've done things beyond this project that I haven't even talked about.

KORG Re-Releases the ARP 2600, Exclusively on Reverb US for Star Wars Day
video upload by Korg
Available exclusively through KORG's Reverb Shop (in the U.S. only)
"You asked, we listened. Due to overwhelming demand after the original re-issue sold out in record time in 2020, KORG has resurrected the classic ARP 2600 full-size synthesizer for an extremely limited run in the USA. https://reverb/ARP2600FS
The Korg ARP 2600 FS is a replica of the 1970s original, handcrafted in Japan and includes USB and DIN-style
MIDI connections, XLR audio outputs, plus the improved ARP 3620 Duophonic Keyboard with an added arpeggiator / sequencer. This iconic synth will arrive in a custom-branded hard shell case, complete with casters.
The original ARP 2600, invented by Dennis Colin and released by Alan R. Pearlman’s ARP Instruments, was one of the first semi-modular synths to hit the market. It has been used by legendary artists like Stevie Wonder, Herbie Hancock, Pete Townshend, Orbital and Nine Inch Nails, and even provided the sound of R2-D2 in Star Wars."
Mini press release follows:
"KORG has re-released the legendary ARP 2600 FS synth, which was used to make the sounds for R2D2 in the original films.
A limited run, these ARP 2600s are available exclusively through KORG's Reverb Shop (in the U.S. only) -- and at a highly discounted price you'll be hard-pressed to find anywhere else.
Originally launched in 1971, the ARP 2600's role in creating the iconic bleep-bloops of R2D2 is well-documented. In fact, the celebrated semi-modular synth is so renowned that it's been used by massive musicians like Herbie Hancock, Stevie Wonder, Edgar Winter, Pete Townshend, and many, many others."

Moog Mavis | Hivemind II
video upload by Moog Music Inc
"In this exploration of sound design, composition, and video synthesis, electronic music producer and Moog Product Strategist Max Ravitz (a.k.a. Patricia) combines eight Mavis synthesizers in a dynamic audiovisual performance.
Each Mavis in this setup provides a different element in the song, ranging from wave-folded kick drums to 808-inspired cymbals and double-VCO basses to folding leads. All eight Mavis synthesizers in this performance are sequenced by the Winter Modular Eloquencer with a touch of delay provided by the OTO Machines BIM and the Chase Bliss x Meris CXM 1978 reverb, adding a bit of dimension to the mix.
Visuals for this video were created using an LZX modular analog video synthesizer."
"Download the new 'Hivemind II' video companion patch book!
This creative resource, free to download through our website, contains the patches heard in the “Hivemind II'' performance.
Using this guide, Mavis owners can recreate the video's sounds ranging from distinct kicks and hi-hats to booming bass and melodic leads. Perfect for live performance or recording into a sampler or DAW, each of these unique sounds can open up new possibilities for artists using Mavis in a production setup.
The digital patch book is one of many sound design resources that can be found on the Explore Mavis page on our website.

Make Noise Pop-Up Residents Showcase!
video upload by MAKEN0ISE
"A showcase of the four residents from the Make Noise September Pop-Up at 821 Haywood!
We were so excited to host four Artist Residencies during our Pop Up, featuring some of our favorite local artists. Each artist created a new piece of music with our instruments, all of which are showcased here!
0:00 Pop-Up Overview
1:47 Farewell Phoenix
6:41 Sleep Number
10:44 Thom Nguyen
12:52 Sarah Louise
16:28 Outro"
And the full performances:
Farewell Phoenix September Pop-Up Performance
"Lynn Fister is a Vietnamese-American experimental musician, writer and visual artist residing in Asheville, NC. She has been making drone-pop and ambient music for over a decade. After taking a long hiatus from their own music, Lynn has recently returned to creating solo music once again as Farewell Phoenix. These new explorations concentrate on choral soundscapes manipulated by and integrated with modular synthesizers. She is now particularly interested in how installations, space and environment inform music-making. Although there are no releases to date under this name, Farewell Phoenix recordings should be available in the near future.
https://linktr.ee/farewell.phoenix"
Sleep Number September Pop-Up Performance
"Sleep Number, a solo project by Asheville based musician Sophie Froehlich Hull, was born out of brief moments of exploration between band practices. Sleep Number blends drone and noise, all while a structural undercurrent keeps it grounded. The recent addition of Make Noise’s Strega into her gear has allowed her to lean into the grit and noise side of Sleep Number, further fueling her desire to experiment and push the bounds of cultivating her own atmosphere of sound.
Sophie is the operations manager inside Static Age Records. She also organizes a quarterly live drone session, named 'Drones in the Garden,' with co-founder Lynn Fister. She has two short releases on Bandcamp and is set to record her full album this winter.
https://sleepnumber.bandcamp.com/
Thom Nguyen September Pop-Up Performance
"Thom Nguyen is an Asheville-based improvisor and drummer of MANAS, Nest Egg, We Bow To No Masters, etc. Producing energetic bursts and invoking a sensitivity to space that one often associates with Free-Jazz and New Music percussion, Nguyen’s approach elegantly bridges works of sonic sculpture with a punk aesthetic of immediacy, of aggression and playfulness. He also runs a drum rental business, Batteria Backline.
https://thomnguyen.bandcamp.com/"
Sarah Louise September Pop Up Performance
"Sarah Louise is interested in how music can help us remember what kind of animal we are. Likewise, she is interested in what synthesis can reveal about the natural world. On her two most recent albums, she uses electronics to create organic sound environments for inner journeys. Her newest as-of-yet unreleased music is joyful and danceable, revealing the importance of embodiment and collective energy to her ever-evolving sounds. Believing that everyone’s expression is as important as anyone else’s, she is also branching into facilitation, helping to create nonhierarchical safer spaces for group singing, celebration and whatever else may arise. Having started as a solo 12-string guitarist and singer of traditional songs, she brings a unique sense of rhythm, harmony and emotionality to her electronic music. You can find her music and keep in touch with her musings and group experiences by following her Bandcamp.

RIP Rob Hordijk - Creator of the Blippoo Box, Benjolin, and Hordijk Modular Systems
video uploads by Pedro Trotz
"Rob Hordijk explains his modular designs at the European Electro Music Event 2012 that took place at Mallorca - Spain."
Sad news in via an anonymous reader today, who spotted the following from Pedro Trotz on Mod Wiggler. Those of you that have been following the site should be familiar with Rob Hordijk's work through numerous posts on the site. Two of his most famous creations were the Benjolin and Blippoo Box.
"I am deeply saddened to announce that my friend and mentor, Robert Ernst Hordjik, passed away earlier today. He was an important part of my life and I am sure also of many others here. He will be greatly missed.
I first met him in the Chateau Sonore event he organized in Belgium, in July 2007. There, lots of similar souls shared our passion for electronic music and electronic instruments. There was a lot of G2 and modular talk, but also performances, instrument demos, concerts, rehearsals... That's when I first heard of the Blippoo, one of his first creations that made him famous.
A few years later he started his work on the modular system that has his name. I felt so grateful for his initiative in Belgium that I couldn't help but planning a follow-up, this time in Mallorca. This time, our meeting had a lot less participants but it was an even better opportunity to make friendships that will last for a lifetime. I believe that in this meeting, in a trip we made to the north coast of the island, between the mountains of the Serra de Tramontana and the Mediterranean Sea, is when Rob decided that he wanted to retire to Mallorca. I can't blame him. It was the middle of January and we were having a pic-nic on the side of a curvy road facing the sea and enjoying what we natives call "the little summer" which is something that happens from time to time in mid-winter when the sea suddenly calms and temperatures rise up to 20 degrees Celsius.
We had a Benjolin workshop, we talked a lot about his design philosophy, and I was happy to record the first series of videos about his modular System. The ones you can find in my Youtube channel. After that series of videos I asked him to build a modular for me and soon enough he came back to Mallorca to deliver it in person.
During this visits I introduced him to Biyi and they automatically made a great connection. Biyi went a few times to The Hague to assist him in the building of Blippoos and modular systems. He even built his own under Rob's supervision. We all three had the idea to start a company in Mallorca where Rob would make the designs, Biyi build the stuff and I would take care of the business side of things. It was all set-up. As soon as his obligations in the Netherlands were fulfilled he would come to Mallorca. The moment arrived but almost at the same time his illness and COVID made things extra difficult.
In one of our talks he said to me that the Benjolin, the Blippoo and the Modular System were his dearest creations and that he was honored to have made so many people happy with them. Let's honor his memory by using them and making the most beautiful sound imaginable.
Farewell, my friend. I love you." - trotz
The following is from the Synth DIY wiki page on Hordijk.
Born in 1958, self described "synthesizer designer and builder,[3]" Rob Hordijk began learning electronics from around age 12 after developing a fascination with the glowing tubes in stereo amplifiers.[1][4] When he was 14 his father who had noticed young Rob's interest gave him a subscription to an electronics course, which lead to an examination for a ham radio license.
Trained as a designer and not a musician, Rob came from an arts background, studying as a sculptor and jeweler in the 1970s. He approached electronic music in a similar spirit to abstract painting, inspired by the ambient works of Brian Eno, and Luigi Russolo's Intonarumori instruments; where attempts were made to blur the boundaries between music and art:[1]
"In those days I was quite interested in the idea of sound as a material to be sculpted, in the same way you can sculpt wood and metal. [...] You can make mechanical objects that make all sorts of sounds, or you can make electronic objects that make all sorts of sounds. but what I like about the electronic objects is that you don't see what makes the sound. [...] It opens the way to sort of make it a bit mysterious."[1]
In the early 1980s as various integrated circuits, micro-controllers, and processors became available to hobbyists, Rob began buying things such as the early Curtis chips and RCA 1802 based SuperElf processor board out of curiosity more than professional ambition.[1][5] Later switching to an Apple ][+ and the Mountain Hardware Music System, for which he developed a Forth language version that could do all sorts of stuff with the Mountain cards, like KarplusStrong-type plucked string sounds and pitch shifting.[5] His first introduction to a DSP was to the DMX1000 around 1984. In 1986 he switched to Atari ST and an Akai S900.[5] These days he is a Clavia Nord Modular G2 aficionado.[5]
"I am not really a gear freak. But I do believe in mastering synthesis techniques, in making synthesis a second nature, so to be able to fully concentrate on the creative processes."[5]
After finishing art school, Rob also completed 11 years of study in Information Technology, learning about design methods and inventory control.[1] As well as his own instruments Rob worked on the Nord Modular G2 including contributing many patches to the Nord Modular online community, and wrote a comprehensive unofficial manual of the instrument. He has produced music for environments, buildings, film, and dance performances, but is yet to produce an official release on a label.[5] As of 2022 Rob has announced his retirement and will no longer be taking orders.[6]
Design Philosophy
Rob's personal definition of a modular synthesizer is more to do with modulation than modularity; referring to functional modules as 'sections'. Everything is supposed to be able to modulate or effect everything else. All levels within the system are optomised for comparability with one another.[1]

Goodnight Betty - A Modular Synthesizer Tribute to Betty White
video upload by Charles Eck
"When I was a kid, I use to go to my Grandma Mina's house and stay up late watching the Golden Girls, Night Court and Gilligan's Island. My Mamita Mina would always let me stay up way past my bedtime and I loved her for that. Fast forward all these years later and of course, on the last night of my winter break from work, instead of going to bed early to get a good night's rest, I stayed up late playing with bleeps and bloops on my synth rack. I then had the idea of sampling Betty White's voice and stumbled across a clip of Betty reading the children's story "Goodnight Moon" at the following link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zDLdV...
The soundbite was too good to pass up so I sampled it then incorporated it into a #Synthesizer improv session. It's not perfect by any means, but a tribute to a remarkable woman who brought so much joy to many and lived one hell of a life. This one is for you Betty and Mamita Mina.
I call this piece, 'Goodnight Betty.'"

New Patching Sound Exhibit Opens at the Moogseum & Ikutaro Kakehashi's An Age Without Samples
via The Bob Moog Foundation where you'll find additional details.
"We're excited to share that the Moogseum has had a busy winter and early spring! We were closed for construction in January and February, which allowed us to expand our space to accommodate new exhibits. We spent the month of March creating the latest addition to our family of interactive exhibits, Patching Sound: Understanding Modular Synthesis.
Patching Sound provides visitors with a hands-on opportunity to patch, or create, sounds on a synthesizer interface by connecting various modules that control individual parameters of sound. The custom-designed exhibit was created by Los Angeles-based Sounds Amazing.
Patching Sound was made possible by a generous donation from Dave and Karen Rossum, with additional support from North Carolina Humanities, an affiliate of the National Endowment for the Humanities, and by donors like you!
A large, fully restored, historic R.A. Moog modular synthesizer, originally created in 1968, serves as the inspirational backdrop for the interactive installation. As part of its storied provenance, this synthesizer was used on the soundtrack of Francis Ford Coppola's Apocalypse Now. You can read more about its history here.
Come experience Patching Sound: Understanding Modular Synthesis at the Moogseum! We are open from 11-5 seven days a week."
"Ikutaro Kakehashi's An Age Without Samples Now Available On Bob Moog Foundation Online Store
We are proud to now be offering An Age Without Samples by synthesizer pioneer Ikutaro Kakehashi in our online store. This 312-page hardcover book was published the same year that its revered author passed away. An Age Without Samples explores such themes as the resurrection of the venture spirit of the '60s and '80s, creativity, and originality. It is replete with examples from his own experiences and storied career and is generously illustrated with scores of rarely seen photos.
Read more about An Age Without Samples and purchase it here.
We send our deep thanks to Ikuo Kakehashi for donating these books to the Bob Moog Foundation so that we could share them with our worldwide community of supporters and generate funding for our innovative work."
