"Traverse is a lo-fi tape effect and stereo delay in one plugin. The cassette side runs a hysteresis-modeled tape engine with Drive, Wow, Flutter, and a tilt-EQ Tone control. The delay side does what delays do — Time, Feedback, Width, sync, ping-pong. A Post-Delay routing toggle lets you swap their order, so you can use it as either a tape-flavored delay or a cassette effect with a delay built in.
Layered on top: a four-control splice system for procedural dropouts, and a procedural noise generator with nine styles — Hiss, Crackle, Dust, Fan Rumble, 60Hz Hum, 50Hz Hum, White, Pink, and the Califone Card Reader. The noise routes into the cassette path, so whatever else you've dialed in shapes it on the way out.
This is the third entry in our Motion Effects family, alongside Ascent and Descent. Same as the rest of our catalog: Mac, Windows, Linux, and iOS. No DRM, no subscriptions, no dongles, perpetual license."
"The Arithmophone Pentatone is a new iOS music app featuring an easy-to-play pentatonic keyboard and a built-in synthesizer.
Pentatone is available now in the Apple App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/pentato..., for iPhones and iPads running iOS 15 or above.
The app is completely free (no in app purchases, no ads or tracking).
Most iOS music apps either give you piano keys or a grid-based interface. Pentatone takes a fresh approach, optimised for the ergonomics of touchscreen devices and inspired by instruments like the kora and mbira. It also has a sophisticated scale selection system that includes all the common pentatonic scale types and unlocks some more unusual ones.
Pentatone features:
An easy-to-play keyboard, split for two handed playing
An original pentatonic scale system with 9 selectable scales, in just intonation or standard tuning
A custom Audiokit-based synth engine (binaural 2x2 operator FM with stereo detune, resonant filter, delay and reverb)
25 preset sounds with macro sliders for tone and ambience
Initial touch and aftertouch response, both polyphonic
User feedback from the public beta:
"this has such a nice design and ui, colors are fresh and remind me of piet mondrian"
"Sounds incredible and can’t wait to use this in my workflow!"
"This is an inspiringly expressive instrument, my friend! Really a joy to interact with."
"Amazing! Love the simple UI and the musical keyboard. Also the sounds are lovely!"
"It’s very fun to play!"
"Looks beautiful!!!""
"The quantisation in e-ther Advance really does make it possible to play more tunefully, particularly when you can see the current note on the display. Here I demonstrate these features using the MIDI output along with a backing provided by MIDIKalimba's looper.
"Carbon Electra 2 is the world’s most musical synth. combining wave terrain synthesis, Scale Lock, chord progressions and diatonic sequencing in one powerful instrument.
Carbon Electra 2 takes the much-loved sound of the original Carbon Electra and reimagines it for a new generation of producers, composers and sound designers.
In this first announcement video, Davide Carbone gives you a sneak preview of some of the new features, including:
• All-new Wave Terrain Oscillators
• Load your own terrain from PNG images
• Scale Lock for chords, oscillators and MIDI input
• Scale degree-based oscillator tuning
• Diatonic Sequencer
• Diatonic Note Sequencer
• Step sequencing and musical motion tools
Carbon Electra 2 is designed to make synthesis more musical, more intuitive and more creative - letting you generate basslines, melodies, chord motions, textures and evolving synth parts that stay locked to the key and scale of your track.
Powerful synthesis meets musical intelligence."

Whether you are producing electronic music, cinematic scores, or synthwave, these patches demonstrate exactly what this upgraded 4-oscillator synth engine is capable of.
"'Sub Pressure' is a collection of 64 Bass Presets for Moog Messenger. The patches cover a variety of bass tones: deep and bright, soft and punchy, long and short, static and rhythmical. 🧬 All sounds are very dynamic: they have Velocity, ModWheel, and Aftertouch assignments. And, of course, you should play with Envelopes, Oscillators and Filter Parameters to get the best experience of the presets.
🧿 The soundset is universal, these basses are suitable for all genres of electronic music, including Techno, House, Trance, Lounge, Downtempo, Funk, Disco, Pop, Acid, Hardcore, IDM, Drum'n'Bass, Breaks, Breakbeat, Trap, Electro, Ambient, Dubstep, EDM, Synth-Pop and others.
"Vintage 12 bit rack sampler ready to give those SP1200 vibes. This one is on nice condition and has a Gotek USB floppy emulator installed along with the SE upgrade. Includes a power cable."
"Performance and studio-ready analog stereo filterbank with ten bandpass filters and extensive feedback loop and stereo panning options. 9 takes with different instruments feeding the Filterbank.
Timeline: 00:02 - Take 1 "Something Sweet" / RES FB in CLOCK mode processing Bullfrog Drums synth pattern. 01:24 - Take 2 "Something Rough" / RES FB in FILTERBANK mode processing Hexdrums with resonance pushed to the max! 03:00 - Take 3 "Kalimboss" / KORG Kalimba resonating with RES FB in FILTERBANK mode. 04:33 - Take 4 "Stereo Fam" / MOOG DFAM processed with the RES FB in clock mode with a lot of SPREAD therefore adding a lot of "stereo space". 06:01 - Take 5 "Organ Time" / RES FB in CLOCK mode adding subtle stereo modulation to the DX7. 07:41 - Take 6 "Auto Bass" / RES FB in DYNAMIC EQ mode with extreme feedback settings generating bassline for the TR-505. 09:16 - Take 7 "Noisebox" / Droning with MC-303 and RES FB in VCF mode 11:33 - Take 8 "Bass n Drum" / Adding "weight" to the TORSO S-4 with RES FB in the Dynamic mode 13:24 - Take 9 "Doomscroller" / Processing bass guitar with Eearthquaker Overdrive pedal and RES FB in DYNAMIC EQ mode. Footswitch is used to bypass the RES FB."
"For the intrepidly curious, a full demonstration of how Atrium's peaks and valleys coalesce into an exciting sonic topography. This video covers everything from the basic playing mechanics to modulation mapping, with helpful waypoints for traversing Atrium's timbral controls and resonant body."
"New Uses for Old Circuits is a series looking at linear and nonlinear processes in the modular system.

"Meet MPC Live III Retro, a special-edition colorway inspired by the original MPCs of the late ‘80s.
From sampling and sequencing to arranging full songs, it’s an all-in-one production powerhouse. Create wherever inspiration strikes and stay in the standalone MPC workflow from start to finish.
"This song was composed and produced exclusively with the famous Korg synthesizers. It is a tribute and a big thank to the Japanese developers at Korg. The following devices were used.
(order in which they appear in the song)
A masterpiece SID track made by Arman Behdad of Intensity in 2006.
This can also be played back on an original C64:

Here, we're using quadchained midiphy zetaSIDs with hardware unison detune to slightly thicken the mix :). The MIDI ASID signal is provided by a midiphy nexusMIDI expander connected to an Elektron TM-1 MIDI Interface.
Visualization support by a tiny six inch Sony PVM 6041QM CRT.
Thanks for watching and listening!
