rare birds: Zoom ER-200 analog delay and spring reverb

video upload by ohm_studi_ohm

"quick demo to showcase the Zoom ER-200 analog BBD delay and spring reverb currently for sale.
Unit was slightly modded to double the original delay max time.
Synth used is the Realistic Concermate MG-1 by Moog"

via this Reverb listing

"rare made in Japan analog BBD and spring reverb. It was also sold as Deki or Cosmic AE-7000 and is quite similar to the Evans Echopet 250 / Rolling Rec 4.

The EQ (tone) is applied to the preamp too so can be used to shape the sound of the input source even without effect, and the delay sound passes through the reverb tank, so even when echo volume is down but if there are some repeats, the delay sound will pass throuhg the reverb. This can give some nice results.

Quite lo-fi sounding, bit noisy but great on synths, check the demo I made.

The unit was modded to double the max delay time.

Everything is working as it should. Input gain is quite sensitive, even in instrument input so you'd better lower the output volume of your source to get the best S/N ratio without clipping."

8/18/25 (feedback) Metasonix S-2000 + Paia 6740 + Alesis MIDIVERB II

video upload by Cfpp0

"The Metasonix S-2000 sounds like a pretty cheerful creature with both contour two and contour three engaged, but gets more angry when contour three is turned off. A lot of that raspiness is due to feedback. The S-2000 audio output is multiplied by the Synthesizers.com Q124, then a copy goes to the Mackie Onyx 1640, with spring reverb from the Paia 6740 and stereo reverb from the Alesis MIDIVERB II, which is what we hear in the video. Another copy of the S-2000 output is sent through the STG soundlabs Attenuators, to the Lower West Side Studios M830 Signal Distribution System (just to convert it to 3.5mm), into the audio input on the S-2000 so it hears itself hearing itself."

SYNTH-WERK SW 8101 BODE BARBERPOLE PHASER

video upload by SYNTH-WERK

"The BODE BARBERPOLE PHASER offers 9 phase stages and various sound manipulation features. The option to insert an additional effect into the feedback loop or one of the two audio pathes is one of them.

The main feature of the BPP/product is infinity phasing. Infinity phasing is a psychoacoustic effect based on the Shepard scale, which was introduced in 1964 by the psychologist Roger N. Shepard. It creates the illusion of an infinitely ascending or descending scale that never exceeds the limit of one‘s hearing.

The combination of the various features like left-right panning or the transfer of a monofonic input signal into a stereo output signal and modulation of the phaser creates a sonic soundstage in the tradition of Harald Bodes ”Klangumformer” principal. If you think you know the sound of a Phaser, you need to listen to the Barberpole Phaser to understand the possibilities of a 'Klangumformer'"

Paradise 😇 (Moog Minitaur // Waldorf Streichfett // Roland S1 // Volca Beats // Mininova // NDLR)

video upload by 2-Minute Warning

"An unexpected impromptu performance with the same setup as my previous video, hope you'll enjoy it! ❤️

The NDLR is sequencing with:
Drone track: the Moog Minitaur (BASS)
Pad track: the Waldorf Streichfett (PADS)
Motif-1 track: the Roland S1 (ARP)
Motif-2 track: the Roland S1 (ARP)

The DRUMS are coming from the Korg Volca Beats and the LEAD is being played in real-time on the Novation Mininova.

00:00 Intro
01:07 Improvised Solo
02:40 Bridge
03:14 Outro

A couple of tricks I used here:

I used the STUTTER EFFECT of the Volca Beats as a delay here on only one voice (not the master bus). First it's on the Open Hi-Hat and then swapped to the Closed Hi-Hat (creating a sixteenth note rhythm without changing pattern)

I'm using one of the NDLR's LFO (Square wave) to modulate the octave of the PADS.

I've used the hidden CHORUS of the S-1 synth to create the wide ARP 😉"

Roland S-1 | Synth Sound Design

Playlist:

1. Roland S-1 | Synth Sound Design Basics Tutorial | Master the S-1: Ep. 1

This is the first video in my series on mastering the Roland S-1. In this episode, I cover the essential sound design features of this powerful little synth. Future videos will dive into advanced sound design, creative jamming techniques, sequencer tricks, and anything else you’d like to see.

2. Roland S-1 | Advanced Sound Design Tutorial | Master the S-1: Ep. 2

The S-1 has a hidden super power: Custom Waveforms. Using the oscillator draw function you can input your own custom waveforms to create new sounds you wouldn't expect from a mini-SH-101 clone. I have a few that I use all the time and I wanted to share them with you. I hope you enjoy!

3. Roland S-1 | Sequencing Tutorial | Master the S-1: Ep. 3

The Roland S-1 sequencer isn't the most advanced, but it offers a surprising amount of utility for its small size. For me, the S-1's sequencer is a quick and effective way to capture ideas and jam, in ways that even more advanced synths and grooveboxes don't always inspire. I get a lot of enjoyment from punching in patterns on the S-1 and using the tips and tricks I show in this video to create tracks and explore new ideas through jamming.

4. Roland S-1 | Voice Modes Tutorial (Poly, Chord, Unison, Mono) | Master the S-1: Ep. 4

The Roland S-1 has four voice modes which can be used for different sound design purposes. I received a lot of requests to make a video on the chord mode functionality, so I figured I would expand it out and cover all of the different S-1 Voice Modes. I'll dive into each one mode and give some ideas for how to use them, with emphasis on chord mode. Let me know if you have any questions!

Hotone Verbera Convolution Reverb + Synthesizer Demo

video upload by HotoneAudio

"Step into a universe of lush, immersive soundscapes with the Hotone Verbera. In this video, we explore unique presets paired with expressive IRs, showcasing how Verbera transforms a synthesizer’s tone into a cinematic journey. From deep ambient washes to rhythmic, pulsing reverbs, discover the power of convolution and algorithmic reverb in one compact pedal.

Featured Presets & IRs:
00:07 - 001 - Verbera / IR: Space VAB Sd
00:41 - 024 – Multi Universe / IR: Time Slip
01:18 - 028 – Disco Elysiumt / IR: Ping Pong Fun
02:10 - 062 - Flap Wings / IR: Rain Field

Perfect for synth players, guitarists, and sonic explorers alike."



Ever imagined your sound echoing through a sold-out stadium? Or reverberating off the metallic walls of a NASA spacecraft hangar? What if your guitar fell into a cosmic white hole… or drifted through the vaulted ceilings of a centuries-old cathedral?

Welcome to Verbera — where imagination meets reality. This is not your typical software convolution plugin. Verbera is a standalone, hardware-based convolution reverb pedal — with Instant IR loading, stunning tweakability, and boundless sonic range. Whether you’re recreating iconic spaces, vintage hardware, or crafting otherworldly reverbs never heard before, Verbera gives musicians and engineers a powerful new tool for both live and studio setups.

Step Into Iconic Spaces and Classic Gear with a Single Click
Verbera ships with 120 world-class impulse responses (IRs) — captured in breathtaking detail from legendary spaces like symphony halls, European cathedrals, even aerospace facilities. You’ll also find IRs modeled after classic studio gear like spring and plate reverbs. Massive or intimate, modern or retro — Verbera brings those sonic environments directly under your feet.

Reverbs from Another Dimension
Verbera isn’t just about realism — it’s about reinvention. Beyond the meticulously captured IRs, you’ll find a curated library of original Hotone-crafted IRs that stretch the limits of your imagination. Think sci-fi-inspired synth atmospheres, time-warping delay trails, shimmering textures pulled straight from a “white hole” in space. These are not your standard reverbs — they’re creative catalysts designed to inspire your next masterpiece.

Dual Reverb Engine for Deep-Dimensional Sound Design
At the heart of Verbera is a dual-engine design. On one side: the IR convolution engine, capturing the nuanced reflections of real spaces and gear. On the other: XR, a finely tuned algorithmic reverb that brings surreal, hyper-dimensional ambiance to your sound. Layer them. Shape them. And with a single tap, freeze the XR reverb to create endlessly evolving textures and ambient pads.

Cutting-Edge Convolution Tech, Instant IR loading
Powered by Hotone’s proprietary low-latency convolution engine, Verbera delivers studio-grade reverb tails — up to 10 seconds stereo or 20 seconds mono — without skipping a beat. Switch IRs on the fly with zero audio dropout. This is next-gen performance that blows past traditional limitations.

New Organelle S2 - Meditation at Arpeggiator Lake

video upload by Critter & Guitari

"Jam at the lake with the new Organelle S2! Order today! https://www.critterandguitari.com This video was made with the Arp-II patch."

"The Organelle S2 has arrived! From the outside, the S2 features maple keys and sturdy black metal enclosure just like its predecessor, but the insides have been completely redesigned. It now runs on a 1.8GHz quad-core processor — 50% faster than the Organelle S!

There are lots of small improvements too: a new encoder with a smoother feel, easier WiFi settings, and even a redesigned SD card slot that prevents the card from slipping into the device.

The Organelle S2 runs all your favorite patches with ease — and has room to grow. We’re also excited to explore some more advanced possibilities."

[Digital recording] YAMAHA FS1R FM/FS Synthesizer Factory Demo Song

video upload by The RISC-V Guy

"I modified my YAMAHA FS1R to add S/PDIF digital output by my self-developed digital audio transmitter board.

This modification allows user to bypass the internal DAC of the FS1R, generates 18-bit bit-perfect PCM output, resulting a more expressive, richer sound compare to the analog output.

I believe that I'm the first one to perform a digital recording of this versatile synthesizer, in fact, this video is first uploaded to Bilibili (BV1Dw411Q7et).

This board has been open source at my GitHub, my other resources for FS1R is also published at my GitHub too, you can search 'completed-fs1r', 'fs1r_firmware_RE' in GitHub to find some useful information (I cannot post the link below because I don't use YouTube frequently).

I may upload the lossless 48kHz FLAC version on Google Drive and share it in the comment below."

"There is something about having both the Digitone II and the Digitakt II together on the tables. Both can do so much but together they can pretty much do anything. The Digitone II is perfect for anything melodic related, chords, basses (even acoustic basses), leads, and percussion too of course. The Digitakt II is the chameleon, it can be anything and do most anything. The power of this sampler is astounding and the workflow is near perfect. In today's episode we make some down-tempo house and show off just how chill these two machines can work together. LED MIDI cables from my shop: https://www.modbang.com/modbang-shop/...

"In today's episode we are pairing the Novation Bass Station II with the Elektron Digigatk II and Digitone II. One for sampling it and one for sequencing it.
