How to approximate a VHIKK X with Magerit Laniakea and Befaco Oneiroi

video upload by Cinematic Laboratory

"Yeah, I FHIXXED IT. I own a VHIKK X. I had to have one, and waited for it for six months. But I completely overlooked the powerhouse I had lying around, gathering dust. Laniakea is a relatively cheap 220 euro module, and I guess - not sure - many of you have an Oneiroi - or an eye on it. If you'd combine those two, you'd open a SuperCluster and sometimes it will make the VHIKK X blush. Again, this proves for me that the best sounds you can imagine may already be hiding in the gear you already own. Next time you hear a 'must have', you may already have it."

Somehow missed this one. Thanks goes to M Me for spotting the listing below and sending it in. A quick search brought up the video above.

via this eBay listing

Google translated from the listing in German:

"This is an extremely rare toy from 2023—one that, for some reason, seems to have been on the market for only a very short time—yet it is anything but a mere toy.

The controller pairs via Bluetooth with an app called X808. This app runs exclusively on iPhone or iPad. There is a stripped-down freeware version (featuring limited synth and effect parameters) and a full version available for 8 euros. Both versions provide access to a few acoustic kits as well as ALL THE ESSENTIAL ROLAND drum machines—specifically the 808, 909, 606, 707, 626, 727, CR78, and CR80. Furthermore, it includes a full-fledged bass synthesizer and *two* full-fledged Kaoss Pads!

I tested the device using only the freeware version, and even that alone is absolutely incredible.

Naturally, you can program beats, basslines, and even full songs; moreover, the controller features an extremely intuitive design—well, as one would expect, since it *is* designed for children.

Something seems to have gone wrong with the marketing, however, because a unit this powerful really shouldn't be classified as a 'toy' anymore.

The device is brand new and has been tested just once.

The internal batteries are charged via USB.

Incidentally, the user manual translates the term 'mixer' as 'stirring device.' Got it?"

Introducing KOMA KASSIOPEIA, a 4-channel DC interface

video upload by KOMA Elektronik

"Kassiopeia is a 4-channel DC interface that lets you control motors, solenoids, LEDs, fans, lights and more with MIDI or CV/Gate.
Tap, shake, vibrate, and move objects to create sound in ways you’ve never imagined. Build kinetic sound installations, trigger solenoids rhythmically, or illuminate objects for an immersive performance.

"Kassiopeia is a 4-channel DC interface that lets you control motors, solenoids, LEDs, fans, lights and more with MIDI or CV/Gate.

Tap, shake, vibrate, and move objects to create sound in ways you’ve never imagined. Build kinetic sound installations, trigger solenoids rhythmically, or illuminate objects for an immersive performance.

What if sound wasn’t just about speakers and synthesizers? What if you could make music by striking metal plates, shaking objects, or vibrating strings?

Kassiopeia is a 4-channel DC interface that turns movement into sound and light. It lets you control motors, solenoids, fans, LEDs and lamps using MIDI or CV/Gate. Each channel can either smoothly adjust power levels (great for controlling motors and movement) or send short, punchy triggers (perfect for percussive hits).

Designed for experimental musicians, sound artists, and tinkerers, Kassiopeia lets you:

Trigger solenoids to create percussive rhythms on any object.
Control motors and fans to shak, vibrate, or bow strings.
Control lamps and LEDs for an immersive performance.
Build kinetic sound sculptures that interact with the physical world.
Power-starve devices for glitchy, unpredictable results.
Simply connect it to a laptop via MIDI (Ableton-ready!) or control it with CV/Gate from your modular system.

During its development, we worked closely with Hildur Guðnadóttir and her band Osmium, incorporating ideas from the modified Halldorophone used in the Joker soundtrack. It’s an instrument of endless possibilities—where will you take it?"

KASSIOPEIA actually made its first mention on the site back on May 7, 2025.

Easel Sample Transformation

Rhodes and Prophet-10 Simple Recording Track | Warm arms 2026-03-19 by atnr

video upload by atnr

"A track created with Rhodes MKII, Prophet-10, OP-1 field, drums, and bass. It is built from simple performance and recording.

The Rhodes MKII is played with chorus from the CE-5. After recording, it is processed through Lofi Tape in the DAW.

On the Prophet-10, a synth lead is performed while switching patches during playback.

On the OP-1 field, sampled voice is played with the FAZOR effect. It is further processed through MOOD MKII with reverb and MicroLoop.

The bass is recorded through a BASS DRIVER DI. The drums are recorded separately and edited in the DAW, then processed as a group through Lofi Tape."

Moog Minimoog Analog Synthesizer: Famous 70s and 80s Sounds

ULTRAMASTER KR-106 Open Source Roland Juno-106 Soft Synth Emulation

"A virtual analog synthesizer inspired by the classic Roland Juno polysynths, with DSP calibrated from hardware measurements, firmware analysis, and factory schematics. 6-voice polyphonic.
Free and open source. AU, VST3, CLAP, LV2, and standalone."

Additional details via Reddit:

"We started building a Juno software synth in a Brooklyn loft in 2000. 25 years later, we're releasing it as open source. Meet the Ultramaster KR-106.

Back in 2000, my buddy Dave and I started Ultramaster Group with a wild idea: professional audio software for Linux. We were young, broke, working in a loft in Brooklyn, and perhaps a little bit ahead of our time.

Life happened. I went on to start a screen printing studio. Dave ended up at Google. But we never really stopped thinking about the synth.

Fast forward 25 years. Hardware is exponentially faster, DSP methodology has evolved, and we now have access to oscilloscopes, service manuals, and communities like this one. So we went back to the source code and overhauled everything.

The KR-106 is a 6-voice polyphonic Juno-106 emulation with:

Per-voice DCO, VCF (TPT cascade, IR3109 OTA-C design with 2x oversampling), VCA, and ADSR
Sub-oscillator (CD4013 flip-flop model) and noise source (2SC945 avalanche model)
PWM modes (manual / LFO / envelope)
4-position HPF (bass boost / flat / 240 Hz / 720 Hz)
Per-voice component variance modeling analog tolerances (pitch ±3¢, envelope ±8%, VCA ±0.5 dB, pulse width)
BBD chorus emulation (MN3009 modeled with Hermite interpolation)
Arpeggiator, portamento, Mono/Poly I/Poly II key modes
Two calibration modes: '1984 Mode' (firmware + schematics) and '1982 Mode' (circuit analysis + hardware measurements from my own Juno-6)
128 factory presets decoded from original SYSEX data
AU/VST3 on Mac, VST3/LV2 on Linux, VST3 on Windows, plus Standalone
It's 100% free, GPL-licensed, and we don't take donations. We just want it to be as accurate as possible, and we'd love help getting there.

Nonlinearity And Feedback

video upload by La Synthèse Humaine

New Uses for Old Circuits

"New Uses for Old Circuits is a series looking at linear and nonlinear processes in the modular system.

In this video we look at simple feedback systems and explore linearity and nonlinearity. We see how basic audio feedback through a linear system (basically a volume knob) can accentuate or attenuate what is already present in a sound. But sending the feedback through a nonlinear system transforms the sound into something else entirely."
