KOSMOS3EFX – GamePadで残響を演奏するエフェクト実験
この動画では、PureData の hidio を使用し、USBゲームパッドの入力をリアルタイムに取得して、リバーブとディレイの“残響成分”を直接コントロールする仕組みを紹介しています。
スティックやボタン操作によって、リバーブの広がり、プリディレイ、ディレイのフィードバック、モジュレーション量などを“演奏するように”変化させることができます。
展示やライブで、「触ると空間が変わる」「音が揺れる」「距離感が動く」といった体験を直感的に作り出すためのプロトタイプです。
PureData とゲームパッドだけで、空間系エフェクトを“楽器化”する試みをぜひご覧ください。"

KOSMOS3EFX – An experiment in performing reverb effects using a gamepad
This video demonstrates a system that uses Pure Data's 'hidio' to capture real-time input from a USB gamepad, allowing for direct control over the "reverberant components" of reverb and delay effects.
By manipulating the sticks and buttons, you can alter parameters—such as reverb spread, pre-delay, delay feedback, and modulation depth—in a truly "performative" manner.
This prototype is designed for exhibitions and live performances, enabling users to intuitively create experiences where touching the controller transforms the spatial atmosphere, makes the sound waver, or shifts the sense of distance.
Please take a look at this experiment in turning spatial effects into a musical instrument using nothing but Pure Data and a gamepad."

Background Modulars No12 - Buchla 200
video upload by Memetune Studio
"Don’t have a real cloned Buchla 200 to hand? No worries! Just put this video on in the background (in full-screen mode), and have the next best thing 😁
Here is 10 minutes of self-playing modular synthesiser randomness
Why not put it on loop - then you can have it playing away in the background while you do other things
A note on the patch:
'I’m using the 259 as the main sound source, which is being sent to various places: the 288 delay, the 296 filter bank and the Dodeca modules’s LPGs
The MARF is combined with the 208 5 step sequencer to produce all the modulations, all powered from a 281 VC function generator
The Dodeca mixer provides stereo panning and the general output'
This piece was featured on Modulisme Session 131: https://modular-station.com/modulisme...
And it appears on this album:
Please support them if you like this kind of stuff! 😁

"Hi folks!
I collected a handful of drum sounds and fed them directly into the Siluria’s audio input, where they transformed into an atmospheric journey of textures, echoes, and evolving rhythms. A beat-driven ambient piece recorded live in a single take.
Best sound with headphones"
Meet ARGISH - A Synth That Plays Itself w/o AI
Via the creator of ARGISH:
"I make instruments at Tunary Instruments, and I built ARGISH — a synth that scores itself.
The part I care about most: there's no AI in it. No trained models, no 'make me a track' button. It's real synthesis and real music theory — you pick a few chords and draw the shape of the piece, and ARGISH does the craft: voicing the pads, weaving the arpeggios, laying bass and a real sampled guitar, building and resolving like an actual score. You stay the author — it just takes the grind off your hands. In a world flooding with AI-generated music, this one stays organic: human-directed, made by ear.
Easiest to feel the difference in your browser — no download, no signup: tunaryinstruments.com/play"
It's also available as an AU/VST3/Standalone for Mac & Windows

Meet YPC - An Online MPC Like YouTube Slice and Trigger Player
This one is in via Ivan Trajkovic aka deejayiwan.
You can find it at https://ypc2000.fun
It's pretty self explanatory. Just give it the ID of any YouTube video in the top YouTube URL field and trigger the pads for different clips, then explore the rest of the controls. Essentially you can sample splice any YouTube video and audio. I'm not seeing the ability to loop samples or the ability to set the length individually - the sample length appears to be global for all pads.

01:05 hardware needed
02:01 Yes, I came up with the firmware, but that's not important here
02:44 you'll need an external sound source #synthesizer and set it to local mode
03:15 you can play on the device itself or on a midi keyboard
03:28 basic usage
03:49 emotional chords!
04:41 ... or not
05:05 chord analyzer
05:52 passing chords
06:33 bass (chord root + key root)
07:23 this channel needs you support
07:48 trigger key changes (some music theory)
09:15 functional chords, related keys and chromatic/altered chords
09:53 chord sequencer
10:44 flip the screen
11:13 disarm the passing chord function
11:19 some interesting details (automatic voicing, slightly random velocity and more)
12:19 playing "chord melodies" and throwing some "emotional chords" in (proof of practicability)
12:45 using the device to create chord progressions in other sequencers
13:02 a short improvisation (left hand: chord machine, right hand: keyboard)
14:16 conclusion, and some more ideas (and why I need your help)"

What Can Polyend Tracker + & Doboz DVNA Create in 10 Minutes?
video upload by Demover
"Hey everyone!
Today I'm sharing a multi-pattern club vibe created with the Polyend Tracker + and the Doboz DVNA.
The MIDI notes are sent from Channel 9 of the Polyend Tracker+, while the atmospheric sequence is generated entirely by the DVNA, with the Tracker+ driving the groove underneath.
I hope you're all having a great summer and finding some time to relax!"

Turismo - Electro
video upload by ALM TV
"「 Turismo Electro 」🐠 Jamming a full electro track using the Turismo, with beats, bass, a lead voice, chords, sequencing, modulation and FX all produced from directly within the system. 🌊
Starting with a beat from the Squid, the TAZM-O is mixed in followed with dynamic through-zero FM from a self oscillating filter of the MCFx2. Additional drum sounds are brought in via the mutes of the ASQ-1. A bass sequence is then added, also produced by the TAZM-O using one of its 2 sub oscillator outs filtered and triggered to alternate with the lead voice. The result is effectively 2 voices using only 1 oscillator. Finally, a vocal like chord sequence from the CIZZLE is mixed in, with both its pitch and inversion sequenced to create ‘arpeggiator’ style stepping from both oscillators. The reverb time of the MFX is increased as the elements are mixed out to conclude the track.
The Turismo is our fully modern Eurorack modular workstation, blending a curated mix of our flagship analog and digital modules for a versatile and creative patching experience. It offers a distinctive ALM character, designed for both precision and fun. 🚘"
