GERMANIUM FEEDBACK // SND FB-14 MK2 Filterbank // The CRYING GAME // No Talking

video upload by LESINDES

"The SND FB-14 is a stunning GERMANIUM TRANSISTOR based FILTERBANK with 14 fixed Q band pass filters. As you can hear in the demo the sound shaping shaping potential of this filter is enormus.
SND FB-14 is assisted by WLK-Audio Inductive Filterbank (silicon) to control excessive boosts and the core of the wiring: ART passive splitter + mixer SplitMix4. The SplitMix knob marked with the WHITE DOT (blue, unused in this session, is for additional feedback!) is controlling the signal that is fed back into SND.
The basic feed is from TORSO Electronics S-4 sculpting sampler."

BÖHM SOLIST - 1972

video upload by Vintage Audio Institute Italia

"This unit is available for sale - if you're interested just shoot us an email at : Vintage dot Audio dot Institute @ gmail.com

Normally we focus on Italian gear but this is such a great little machine we thought we'd venture out a little.
This is the first model Bohm Solist - a mega-early, analog auto-accompaniment unit and drum machine from West Germany.
Comparing the two Bohm Solist models - the S and the 78 - we realized that they're almost identical. The only thing that's added to the next model are a few chord sounds and 4 added bass line variations.

You can watch our demonstration of the Solist 78 here : • Dr. Böhm Solist 78

The Solist machines are essential song-writing tools and offer some great, useful features : great drum sounds, chords and bass lines as well as an arpeggiator, all transposed by the control keyboard.

This video is not really a demonstration but a jam of sorts, with some help from external effects this unit sounds great and is a hoot to play.

Specifications :

The one-octave keyboard controller can only operate one finger at a time - it's not made to be played, but to indicate the desired key to the main, sound generating unit.

The major, minor and 7th and 9th chord options are engaged by pressing the grey side keys and the buttons on the right in tandem with the desired key.

Dr. Böhm named the auto-accompaniment section Böhmat - perhaps a mix of Böhm and Automat - and it has quite a lot going on considering for such an antique device:

1. A bass sound generator of bass lines spanning two bars.
2. 3 chord sounds with 6 rhythmic patterns
3. An arpeggiator figure and a Wah effect for the chords and arpeggiator.
4. Analog drum machine of 24 patterns that are mixable, mute options for most individual drum sounds.

The bass and chords rhythm patterns are unique to each rhythm engaged while the arpeggiator line is a single pattern for all.
The tempo of the Wah-Wah LFO effect follows the main tempo.

The drum section has 24 drum rhythm patterns that can all be played at the same time if one desires. There are mute options for all but a few drums sounds, as well as a snare roll and a single, hard-wired drum fill.

A COMPACT ANALOG COMPRESSOR

Messor is a fully analog stereo feed-forward VCA compressor designed for studio, modular, and live systems. The architecture is derived from the original Cosmotronic eurorack module, with extended headroom, improved channel matching, and a revised sidechain topology optimized for wide dynamic ranges.

HIGH HEADROOM

The internal ±12 V regulated power rail provides substantial headroom and consistent operating conditions for both line-level and modular-level sources. It reliably handles high-transient material from synthesizers, drum machines, and percussion-heavy sources without premature clipping. High-impedance inputs and balanced outputs simplify interfacing with modular systems, samplers, and balanced studio equipment.

Signal flow begins with a low-noise stereo preamplifier offering up to 18 dB of gain, followed by a pair of matched VCA control blocks. The feed-forward topology provides predictable transient behavior, accurate envelope shaping, and stable stereo imaging. A post-VCA conditioning stage adds tube-like saturation, introducing controlled harmonic content when driven into overload.

We got some resonant filters by York Modular and this was a first test. The Ladik S-143 sequences the MFB OSC-3. The MFB oscillators 1 and 2 run through the TT4 into the right side of the Zerosum Inertia 5654 dual VCA, which is modulated by the MFB dual ADSR, and then through the OAM Time Machine. Oscillator 3 runs through the rBPF into the left side of the 5654, modulated by the MFB dual LFO and dual ADSR, and then through the Peavey 1300 delay (panned left). All of the signals have reversed reverb from the Alesis MIDIVERB II, spring reverb from the Paia 6740, and stereo reverb from the CXM 1978."

Tembra Modular PH LFO - Phase Shifting Wavetable LFO

video upload by Braintree56

"The Tembra Modular PH LFO is a powerful Eurorack modulation source that focuses on phase shifting and uses wavetable LFOs. I love using Phase Shift for wide stereo images and complex movement.

In this video, I demonstrate the PH LFO’s core functions and build a practical Eurorack patch that uses phase-shifted LFOs to create a wide, animated stereo field—without relying on chorus, delay, or other stereo effects.

Tembra Modular:

/ tembra.modular

https://www.tembra-modular.com/phlfo/"

LFO module provides 4 outputs, 3 with phase shift.
The PH S knob controls phase:
center = no shift,
up = maximum shift (45° / 90° / 180° depending on output),
down = the same amount but in the opposite direction.
RATE controls LFO speed.
WAVE smoothly morphs between waveforms inside the selected bank.
BANK button:
Short press: switch between waveform banks (5 banks + 1 bonus).
Hold: enter rate range selection mode.
In this mode, short press cycles rate ranges:
0.05–10 Hz, 0.05–5 Hz, 0.05–3 Hz.
Hold again to exit back to bank mode.
There are CV inputs with attenuators for WAVE, RATE, and PHASE.
Range switch selects output voltage range:
0 to +10 V or –5 to +5 V.

Simple Synth-Pop Crossover Session | Nobi 2026-01-19 by atnr

video upload by atnr

"This piece was created using ‪@KORG_INC‬ microKORG S, ‪@teenageengineering‬ OP- field, and NTS-1, forming a simple synth-pop crossover track.

On the microKORG S, melodies are performed while switching between different patches. The output is processed with reverb via ‪@strymon‬ blueSky.

The rhythm is handled by the OP-1 field, while the bass is played by the ‪@KORG_INC‬ NTS-1. Both are triggered via MIDI sent from Ableton Live.

Although it does not appear in the video, the Nord Lead is used to play harmonic parts, with reverb applied through ‪@gfisys‬ Specular Tempus."

Dirtywave M8 and Torso S-4 Jam 260117

video upload by Indra Perkasa

"technical notes / self-reminder.

both M8 and S4 connected to mac desktop using usb.
then using Loopback, i route audio from M8 to S4 with details:
M8 Main Out to S4 Track 4
M8 Track 4 (Pads Hypersynth) to S4 Track 2
M8 Track 1 (FM Bass Synth) to S4 Track 3

S4 Track 1 is playing back sample that i also recorded from M8 via usb-Loopback.
more on this, at first i tried to connect directly using usb from M8 to S4. it worked, but there's audio crackles. i assumed this happen because of the different sample rate. M8 is 44Khz and S4 is 48KHz. so i found a workaround that is working nicely (no crackles) using Loopback as a bridge.

M8 also sending midi to S4 to send clock, control Start/Stop, and send midi cc to control Mix FIlter of S4 Track 1 and 2. i did this using Midi Patchbay app, its an open source app. very handy app with for this kind of situation, just want a simple routing without needing to use DAW.

then i use ableton just to record, set audio input to S4, audio out to my audio interface for monitoring.

its amazing nowadays how you can multitrack record music gear without using audio cables, only 2 usb! and just want to say Loopback is really really nice. simple, but very useful."

#JAMUARY2026: OUTGROWTH + MUSIKRAKEN HAND-TRACKING

video upload by Perplex On

"Love what @aqeelaadamsound and @blankfor.ms crafted with their awesome #outgrowth app ❤️❤️❤️ Here i‘m using it as a granular instrument hosted in #musikraken to use camera-tracked hand gestures to move through various waveforms. Left-right movement is mapped to sample/playback start while hand openness is mapped to grain window size. Going out of frame and back in triggers a new waveform using Outgrowth‘s round-robin playback feature. So much fun and yet so much more to explore there…"

Outgrowth is a sample-based instrument built collaboratively by Aqeel Aadam Sound and BlankFor.ms. Designed with creativity, flexibility, and performance in mind, Outgrowth provides unique, multifaceted ways to reimagine audio with your mouse or keyboard.

Outgrowth features five unique engines for processing samples:

Stem: A basic one-shot style player that repitches the sample
Retain: A granular stretching engine that sustains the sample indefinitely
Reflect: A looping algorithm that loops the sample at a consistent rate across all pitches
Radiate: An additive resynthesizer that maps each harmonic of the sample to a sine wave oscillator
Delve: A wavetable synthesizer in which the sample becomes the basis for a completely unique wavetable

Outgrowth also features five standout audio effects for shaping your sounds further:

Subvert: A unique shaper that flattens or inverts the sample’s volume
Submerge: A singular effect for adding dimensional realism to sample repitching
Strike: A dynamic control for adding an acoustic-like response to sample playback and performance
Ripple: A one-knob tape emulation handcrafted by BlankFor.ms that can be subtle, deconstructive, and anywhere in between
Smear: A pre-ADSR reverb for congealing notes and blurring boundaries between pitch and texture

And further still, Outgrowth offers a robust modulation matrix for generative or performative control over all parameters. Control every single parameter within Outgrowth via LFOs, unique random sources, velocity, note pitch, aftertouch, MPE control, and more.

Finally, Outgrowth offers a robust preset system, including more than 50 bespoke presets and over 100 samples by BlankFor.ms. Explore ethereal ambient pads, haunted lofi keys, shimmering tape-infused plucks, gnarled percussive textures, and more."
