Hurray... Take 5 and TEO 5 Desktop Units

video upload by Starsky Carr

TEO 5 announced here

"The Take 5 and Teo-5 from Sequential and Oberheim make fantastic desktop units. They feel like they were made for this form factor - no compromises, simply great sounding synths in a high quality enclosure. The keyboard versions may have felt lacking in keys (even though they have a great keybed) - just a bit too short for some. I found it was quite handy having one that could fit on my rack! But with these the only decision you have to make is which one is best for you.

Luckily I'm here to confuse you further (they both sound great)! The decision will be whether you prefer the Oberheim or Sequential style of VCO programming, the filters, and the X-Mod/FM. And these just so happen to be the bits I look at in this :)"

Introducing Halogen FM by GForce Software

video upload by GForce Software

"FM synthesis is notoriously difficult to program — complex, technical, and often unintuitive. Halogen FM changes that. We built it to remove the barriers that have kept so many from exploring the raw, expressive power of FM.

Instead of diving into confusing algorithms or endless parameters, Halogen invites you to discover sound through play. It’s a generative instrument that responds to instinct, not instruction — giving you evolving textures, organic tones, and sonic surprises without requiring deep synth knowledge.

Halogen FM lets everyone tap into the beauty and unpredictability of FM synthesis — whether you’re a seasoned producer or just curious. Your ears lead the way, and happy accidents are part of the design.

Part 1 here

"UNBOXING // IK Multimedia UNO SYNTH PRO X // Part 2 // TWEAKING Presests // No Talking
Just arrived here. I could not dive deep into the synth. So I am scatchning only the surfice in this video and my short FIRST IMPRESSIONS of the new kid.
Very versatile little machine with paraphonic mode to play triads and program triads in the step sequencer. 2 independet filter. 1 OTA HP/LP, 1 SSM style, parallel or in series.
Now a few shortcomings:
DISTORSION is welcome but has to be that harsh?
Also: A programmable DISTORSION is a good feature but without a programmable overall level BEHIND the DISTORSION it makes the synth almost unsuitable for a live performance as for huge unsustainable loudness gaps between different patches.
DELAY and REVERB are only average and far away industry standard.
Flexible MODULATION ROUTING but it is quite a mess to readjust levels as there are for instance no dedicated attenuaters for LFO mod levels for the VCF. I understand that there is not much space on the panel 1. But LFO WAVE knob could get a 2nd shift function. Main job: LFO amount, shift-job: wave....
AND it does not feature a power switch. That's really bad when you hooked directly on your computer via USB-C. Every time when you'redone you must tear the plug or the UNO sucks your computer batterie empty.
This could be solved. By a hint of a user. Pressing the hold button for a second or two switches the unit off. So at least an OFF SWITCH!
The tune knob for the oscillators is multirange: The first 10 minutes plus and minus it increses and decreases in CT steps and in half tones. So you cannot detune the oscillators when shifted in the halftone range.
The pots controlling plus and minus CVs could better feature a DENTED CENTER POSITION. For the TUNE knob it is not a big problem as it first advances in cents but adjustment FILTER ENV amount is sometimes very delicate and a quick cancelling of the ENV is not possible without a dented center position.
Units with built in sequencer are often hooked up to computers and other machines as via MIDI or USB as slaves. And here this unit badly need a well functioning AUTO MODE so that it switches to slave automatically when an EXTERNAL CLOCK is detected at the input. Most other gear features this.
So these were my fist impressions."

Oberheim TEO-5 Synth Jam | Percussive FM Arp & Ambient Textures

video upload by Sidetrack Walker

"A pure synth journey with the Oberheim TEO-5 – no talking, no overlays, just evolving textures and raw sonic movement.

This live synthesizer jam explores the rhythmic and textural possibilities of through-zero FM, snappy envelopes, and sample & hold (S&H) modulation. Starting with a tight percussive arpeggiator patch, the track moves into ambient territory midway, using the TEO-5’s built-in BBD delay with endless feedback and rich stereo reverb before returning to its rhythmic roots.

Whether you’re here for synth inspiration, immersive listening, or just want to experience the TEO-5 in action, this one’s for you.

🎧 Headphones recommended!

PS: Apologies for the less-than-ideal lighting — let’s call them lo-fi vibes by accident. The jam deserved to be shared regardless. 😉

🔍 Key patch features (for the synth community):
• Through-zero FM
• Per-step S&H mod oscillator tuning
• Percussive envelope settings
• Stereo voice spread
• BBD delay in feedback loop
• Internal reverb for lush ambience

Thanks for listening!"

Moog Mariana 50 Dynamic Presets. No Talking Sound Demo

video upload by Anton Anru

"Sequentizer is a collection of 50 patches for the Moog Mariana VST synthesizer, including 21 basses, 22 leads, and 7 textures.
🎼 This soundset is dedicated to rhythmical timbres.
Moog Mariana features dual-layer architecture, six LFOs, and four random generators. By combining different modulation waveforms and speeds, it's possible to create rich, evolving, and rhythmically driven sounds.
Simply hold down a key or MIDI note — and the pattern plays itself.

📦 Get these presets: https://antonanru.sellfy.store/p/mari...

🥁 That’s the concept behind the name Sequentizer: while Mariana doesn’t include an internal sequencer, these patches are programmed to simulate complex sequences and rhythmic patterns through modulation alone.

💎 The soundset explores a wide tonal spectrum: warm, deep, soft, clean, punchy, dark, bright, aggressive, distorted, detuned and others.
🎚 The ModWheel brings additional expressiveness — brightening the tone, introducing detune, or expanding the stereo field depending on the patch.

🧿 These presets are versatile and suited for a broad range of genres: ambient, electronica, cinematic, retrowave, synthwave, darkwave, IDM, trip-hop, lounge, downtempo, pop, chill out, new age, trance, deep, progressive, techno, breaks, jungle, drum and bass, dub, and more.

💡 Make sure you’re using the latest version of the plugin to ensure compatibility.
To install the presets:
Open the preset browser pop-up menu (top center of the plugin).
Click “Open Presets Folder.”
Move the downloaded presets into this folder.
Restart the plugin — the new patches will appear under the User category."

Akai VX600 Synthesizer Demo [no talking]

"Audio + Video by G-Storm Electro c. 2025

This is a six voice analog Akai VX600 synthesizer. Two oscillators per voice, and it takes minimum 30 minutes to stabilize tuning enough to play. Even so, it also wants 3 or 4 auto-tune sessions. Basses, pads, leads, arpeggios. Please enjoy. While this demo features my original patches, alas - there's no way to backup patches to computer or share them w/ others in that way. It only accepts Roland style Memory Cards. Be sure to check out my patches for other synths available at https://gstormelectro.gumroad.com/

Recorded direct via EPM6 mixer to GO-Mixer Pro-X interface to iPhone, no added effects.
The synth output is very hot, so any clipping you hear was overloading the input at the mixer."

DUSTING OFF // AnalogFX SER-2020 // Part 3 // No Talking

Additional parts

"Rebuilt of the ultra rare SYNTON SYRINX Dutch keyboard synth.
I cannot compare but the unusual filter setting of
2 bandpass and 1 lowpass VCFs, with 4 different routings
give a lot of modulation freedom and rendition of rather unusual
sounds.

Since I am not a fan of black gear. I tried my best in 2023 and contacted
ANALOG FX. And they had been so kind as to manufacture a
custom blue face synth which I have only seen in some
preproductions units and, of course, in the historic
SYRINX which was available also in red.

For the image angle had to use the wide angle and so only a quite low resolution. So there is not much detail. Sorry for that."
