"Another test track from an OST I've been working on. Orchestral sounds in a dreamscape.

The Phantasmal Force is sending 5 different sequences to 5 different sounds on the MT32. Soundfonts turn the MT-32 into a versatile little box!

Genki Instruments Katla #5 | Winterdagen

video upload by Winterdagen

"Time for a new video on the mighty Genki Instruments Katla lava synthesizer! While last rays of a setting sun were hitting my living room window, I was playing around with Katla's stereo CMOS distortion, and this beautiful gloomy pad emerged. You can drive Katla in no less than four different places. This took a little getting used to for me, but it makes for a super flexible synth engine. I've never heard internal drive sound this good on a synthesizer.

As always, thanks for having me Genki! I'm not getting payed to say nice things about Katla, and I think its beautiful sound speaks for itself:)"

New maker sbrk devices Introduces zerua nahasi 4-voice granulator eurorack module

From the creator: "My name is Dani and I am about to release my first Eurorack module, which I have been working on for the last few years: it is called zerua nahasi, and it is a 4-voice granulator with multiple internal and external modulation options, various ways to combine and synchronize the 4 voices, multiple grain engine types (varispeed, (paul)stretching...), and an integrated convolution reverb with custom impulse responses. You can learn more about it at sbrkdevices.com.

The module will be released in automn this year, but in a few days I will be showing it at Superbooth in Berlin. If you plan to be there, you are more than welcome to come visit us, we are in the headphones only area, at booth W241."

Additional details via sbrk devices:

zerua nahasi is a polyphonic granular synthesizer for the eurorack modular format, with a wide range of granulation possibilities. it features 4 stereo granular engines that can be used independently or in combination, opening a whole palette of possibilities. samples can be loaded from an SD card, or recorded via the stereo audio input. each granulation engine can use the same or different samples as sources for granulation. a live mode is also available, where the device works as a granular delay. zerua nahasi aims to work as a granulation l a b # r & t @ @ !.

furthermore, this device also includes a stereo convolution reverb, with some built-in impulse responses with barcelona's most iconic spaces, and the possibility to load custom IRs from the SD card.

- features -
4 stereo granular engines - each slot can hold over 20 seconds of audio.
the 4 engines can be synchronized and combined in multiple ways.
main granulation parameters with CV control and randomization: grain position, grain length, density, pitch/speed, envelope shape, stereo image.
multiple granulation modes: varispeed, stretching, and more to come.
onset/transient detection.
granulation sources: stereo input audio (live or pre-recorded), or samples from SD card.
integrated convolution reverb. IRs can be loaded from SD card.

The Terminal Island Freeway (CA 47 & 103) | Synthesizer soundtrack

video upload by CatSynth TV

"We return to Terminal Island to explore its freeways anew after several major construction projects, starting with California highways 103 and 47, which form the Terminal Island Freeway. The island and its surroundings are at the southern end of Los Angeles, and host the massive ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach. This gives the drive an industrial, surreal, and delightfully dystopian vibe. The music, which combines metallic sounds with a sense of solitude, reflects the experience.

The Terminal Island Freeway begins at an intersection near the southern terminus of Interstate 710 and heads north, crossing the Commodore Schuyler F. Heim Bridge onto the mainland, where 47 and 103 split. We stick with CA 103 and the freeway, passing by some large industrial facilities and CA 1, and ending at modest intersection with Willow Street in Long Beach.

Synthesizers used:
Arturia Augmented Persia and CMI V
Yamaha RX5 vintage drum machine
Anukari 3D physics modeling synth
Cherry Audio DS-2, Spirit, and Filtomika
AudioThing Wires
EastWest Fab Four, Stormdrum 3, and Orchestral Percussion"

GreyScale-GeneratePulse #kosmos #renoise

video upload by

"GreyScale has released their latest project, "GeneratePulse," which fuses intricate rhythmic structure with an intense visual experience.
The core sound production of this work utilizes Renoise, a leading tracker-type DAW. Fully leveraging Renoise's unique step-based precision sequencing capabilities, a tight, glitchy beat is constructed, themed around "Pulse," as the name suggests. Tracker enthusiasts will undoubtedly appreciate the meticulous programming that conveys a sense of vertical energy.

For visual effects, the hardware video visualizer QuantumVJhd is employed. It converts audio signals into glitchy video in real time, creating luminous visuals perfectly synchronized with the sound pulses.

A fusion of sharp pulsed beats and abstract, high-brightness visuals that respond to the dynamics of the sound.

This work, where the mathematical beauty of digital trackers intersects with analog-like glitch visuals, can be considered a pinnacle of contemporary audiovisual works."

BOARDS OF CANADA - Under the coke sign (COVER - Prophet REV2 & Elektron Analog Heat+FX)

video upload by nicola neeco

"Gear & Setup
Recreating Boards of Canada’s 'Under the Coke Sign' using the Sequential Prophet Rev2 and Elektron Analog Heat+FX. (Patches made from scratch)
Two custom patches on the Prophet: left hand for the bass line; right hand leverages the chord memory function: hold desired notes and hit unison to trigger full chords with a single finger.

Processing & Sound
The Analog Heat+FX provides warm saturation, EQ shaping, and the warble module, which introduces the characteristic background tape noise heard throughout."

Best Ambient Synth Shootout #150: Modal Skulpt - Song 2

video upload by Christian's Sonic Spaces

"This is the second, quite relaxing recording with the Modal Skulpt. It is a unique sounding, little 4-voice polyphonic virtual analogue synthesizer. The size of the Modal Skulpt is somewhere between the Korg Volca and the Sonicware Liven.

I used for the recording the following FX pedals: Boss Slicer SL-2, Hologram Microcosm, Pigtronix Echolution 2 Deluxe, GFI System Specular Reverb 2.

The signal went through a Presonus StudioLive 16.0.2 into the PC via USB for recording. To create the complete song I recorded consecutively several stereo tracks. On some tracks Compressor and EQ where added in Cubase. The final song was then mastered using iZotope Ozone.

Well, I decided to go back to the basics, but at the same time make something useful for the synth community and do a kind of competition (I like competitions;-). What's my best synth for ambient music :-)"

Favorite Norns Scripts for Plinky

video upload by Nathan Plante Synths

"I have lots of fun combining these two pieces of gear so I thought I would share some of that fun with you all. Norns is a fantastic little music computer and there is so much more you can do with it than I show here. This video is less tutorial and more just jamming with Plinky and different Norns scripts. Enjoy!

Plinky 12 Chords: 80s Brass

video upload by Making Sound Machines

"In this clip, Enrica from Making Sound Machines improvises on the Plinky 12 Chords play surface.

The internal sequencer advances through a progression of harmonies, playing and arpeggiating a new chord each bar. With her fingertips, Enrica improvises an expressive melody on the play surface.

The notes in this view are a stack of the chord notes for each of the harmonies from the rainbow chord palette at the bottom of the instrument. This allows Enrica to freely arpeggiate and transition from harmony to harmony, sometimes leading, sometimes trailing behind the chords launched from the sequence.

The polyphonic play surface reads both play position and pressure of the touch, allowing for an intuitive and nuanced play style. All sounds are produced with Plinky 12's internal synth engine."
