"Join Hazel for some sound explorations on the all new DMNO ON.

DMNO ON is the full-featured 8-voice, 2-part multi-timbral DMNO synthesizer in a compact desktop format. Built around two independent analog-hybrid synth engines, it retains DMNO’s highly flexible signal architecture, with each engine featuring our new Dynamic Multi-Core Stereo VCF. Eight creative Play Modes unlock dynamic interactions between the two timbres at the touch of a single control, while its flexible analog and digital audio connectivity make it a truly expansive and immediate sound design sandbox."

Obsession Vol 2 - Patches 1 to 32 - Oberheim OB-X8

video upload by GEOSynths

"Out Soon.
Back with another 128 Patches for the fantastic Oberheim OB-X8. While Vol 1 covered some Classic Sounds, Vol 2 is more about Synthesis and leaning into new Shapes and Textures. I've since created my own Multi-FX Plugin (GEOSpace) which has EQ, Chorus, Phaser, Flanger, Delay and Reverb and have created 128 Presets to go with all 128 OB-X8 Patches, just add as an Insert to your Host/DAW and select the same names. That's it.

You can find GEOSpace at the following, these 128 FX Presets will be included with Obsession Vol 2 only.

https://github.com/GEOSynths/GEOSpace...

In terms of Sounds, I've concentrated a lot on Pads and Strings and unusual tones, going further with Page 2 Functions and as always, all 128 are demonstrated over 4 Videos. When the 4th is Live, they will be released. V2 Firmware for the OB-X8 needs to be installed.

ECHOFIELD - He Turned the M-VAVE FM-1 Into a Granular Synthesizer!

video upload by

You can find the M-VAVE FM-1 on Amazon.

"ECHOFIELD turns short samples into evolving clouds of sound, shimmering textures, strange loops, ambient soundscapes, and much more. It's a different way to explore the FM-1, built for experimentation and making sounds you might not expect from this little device.

In this video, I'll show you how ECHOFIELD works, explore its different granular modes and performance effects, and take a look at the companion browser app and built-in emulator.

You can even record audio directly from the FM-1 into the app, edit it, and send it back to the device.

Firmware flasher: https://philip-bos.github.io/echofiel...
Companion app: https://philip-bos.github.io/echofiel...
Browser emulator: https://philip-bos.github.io/echofiel...

Installation instructions and project source: https://github.com/Philip-Bos/echofie...

ECHOFIELD is free and experimental. Make sure to read the instructions before installing custom firmware, and back up anything you want to keep."



"ECHOFIELD turns the M-VAVE FM-1, a tiny FM synth, into a granular sampler. It reads tiny pieces of a sample (grains), dozens at a time, each with its own pitch, place and fade, and overlaps them into a sound that keeps moving. It started as a granular sampler for the R36S handheld and was rebuilt here, from the ground up, for the FM-1's own chip.

Six modes: CLOUD, DUST, TAPE, BLOOM, PULSE and DRIFT, each a different way of playing the same sound.

Playable: the keys play the cloud at any pitch, with velocity. Chords work too, and the DRIFT ORACLE picks notes in a key you choose.

Performance effects: hold FX and the black keys become freeze, reverse, octaves, stutter, tape stop, delay throw, shimmer and more, for as long as you hold them.

RANDOM with locks: ARP rolls new settings that still sound good. Lock the knobs you love, and undo if you went too far.

RESAMPLE: record up to five seconds of what you hear into a new sound, then granulate that.

LISTEN: hear any sample as it is, before the grains change it.

14 factory sounds, all CC0, and 16 slots for your own.

Both of the FM-1's cores render the grains, so there are no dropouts when you play hard.

MiniFreak Sound Design: 12 Tricks I Use All the Time

"Three sounds from scratch on the Arturia MiniFreak 49: an arp, a pad and a bass. Along the way, I share the 10 sound design tricks I use all the time.

You don't need to be a sound design expert for any of this. The MiniFreak rewards exploration: try the engines, add a little movement, and dial things back until the sounds fit together. Everything except stereo spread and Filter FM also works on the original MiniFreak.

FM-1 instant sampler + tape deck

video upload by ferluht

You can find the M-VAVE FM-1 on Amazon.

"Second iteration of FM-1 + android sampler, this time with redesigned UI, sample auto-tune and "tape deck" with cassette fx"

https://github.com/ferluht/fm1-sampler

A sampler + audio looper (8 tracks) for Android with the M-VAVE FM-1 as its hardware front end. The phone does all the sound; the FM-1 is the control surface (keys, buttons, 7 encoders), the second screen (240x240, drawn with SysEx commands) and the audio output (USB audio). All DSP is original code in engine/dsp (no third-party audio engine); the only library is KissFFT (BSD) for the Paulstretch mode.

FM-1 second screen (240x240, from the host simulator app_sim: sample, FX, envelope, LFO, arp, tape, mixer, key, mic waiting, rec armed, loop playing, loop length):

Phone app, main screen = the tape deck (light theme by default, the dark one is one tap away; ink / dim / orange): the tape loop, PLAY / STOP / REC / CLEAR under it, the sample of the selected track with its mode and sounding voices, the four knobs of the current page, one timeline of the selected track.

He made a fair Sampler for FM-1 and it sounds HUGE

video upload by ferluht

You can find the M-VAVE FM-1 on Amazon.

"Another day of AI-sloping firmwares for FM-1, this time a fair lo-fi sampler with 120s of audio, zones/instruments mapping, a free loop sequencer, punch-ins and send-returns. Still not LOOPA but already closer"

https://github.com/ferluht/fm1-lofi-s...

fm1-lofi

A lo-fi sampler that runs on the M-VAVE FM-1 itself, plus a web editor (one HTML file) that builds sample packs and sends them over Bluetooth (BLE MIDI) or USB.

Samples are stored in the FM-1's flash as 16 kHz mono, 2 bit LMS-ADPCM: about 100 s of audio in the 520 KB the firmware has for a pack.

The panel is a menu of ten screens (FX, SEL, ENV, LFO, EDIT, GLO, HOME, SAVE, ARP, SEQ), each with four parameters. Keyboard zones, scales, per zone envelope / LFO / start / end / reverse, four send effects with punch-ins, an arpeggiator and a live loop sequencer.

The web editor (one HTML file, any Chrome or Edge, Web MIDI) imports audio, slices it, maps it to zones, previews the real 2-bit sound and uploads the pack.

"Introducing the Shadow Coven — a new line of 3U Eurorack configurations built from three Nocturne Alchemy Platform modules, bound together by a custom bracket at a true 26HP with no overhang, and powered from a single bus board slot via a daisy-chain harness.

In this video I introduce the full Shadow Coven line, walk through the first two configurations — Nigredo and Mousai — and announce something special at the end for anyone who already owns a FlatSix module.

🜂 SHADOW COVEN — NIGREDO
Three Arp Of Darkness modules running in parallel. The first stage of the alchemical Great Work: the blackening. Three buffers, each with six playback modes (Golden Ratio included), three Remix cycles, three clocks that can lock together or drift apart. Feed each buffer a phrase and watch it fracture into something you didn't quite write.

🜍 SHADOW COVEN — MOUSAI
Three sisters of inspiration: Seventh Summoner, Shroud Of Turing, and Arp Of Darkness. A meta-sequencer that chains song structures. A generative shift register that evolves to custom scales you build on the fly. A buffer-based arpeggiator that transforms what you feed it. The full Nocturne Alchemy toolkit in one 3U rack.

⚭ SHADOW COVEN — INITIATE (coming soon)
For musicians who already own a FlatSix module. Two modules of your choice at a lower price than buying them individually, pre-mounted in the binding with the power harness included. The module you already own drops into the open bay, completing the Coven. The binding, harness, and assembly time are free — my thank-you for being here from the start.

If you're interested in the Initiate, comment on this video or use the contact form on flatsixmodular.com and I'll reach out to you."

video upload by Craig Padilla

"Trick or treat once again with another live performance in the studio! it's also inspired by the spirit of Halloween! And, once again, it's been captured on video by Colleen Padilla.

'Surface Ascent' is a long piece of music in four parts. It was performed in front of a few of my friends, Donny and Romy Oster, and Skip Murphy. Their energy during the performance was inspiring.

This song features heavy use of many synthesizers and effects:
Akai MPC ONE
Yamaha MODX M7
Synthrotek MST & Division 6 Modular with Source Audio Collider
Mattson Mini Modular with Source Audio Nemesis
ARP 2500 Sequencer
Arturia MatrixBrute
Hologram Microcosm
TC Electronics Ditto X4

The Mattson Mini Modular and ARP 2500 Sequencer modules create an underwater sonar-like vibe before the first rhythmic sequence begins.

Huge THANKS to George Mattson for building the MST / Division 6 Modular and Mattson Mini Modular.

This epic song will be available on my new live album 'First Light Over Aurora'. It will be available at www.CraigPadilla.com .

Please consider donating a much appreciated monetary tip to the performer to: PayPal.me/CraigPadillaMusic"

M-Vave FM-1 | Do you really need custom Firmware anymore? | Official V16 Firmware

"The sounds (presets) used in the video: https://natlifesounds.com/product/amb...

Official V16 Firmware: https://www.m-vave.com/download [links on bottom here]

Hello everyone!

Version V16 of the official firmware for the M-Wave FM-1 was recently released, and after using it for a while, I seriously wondered: Do I really need any other third-party firmware? The official firmware is the most stable, offering full stereo effects, multitimbral support, color gamut customization, a full 64-step sequencer, and much more that can't be found in third-party firmware.

And since the video didn't finish recording, I'd like to add: Do we really need custom firmware with incomprehensible code written by AI (which doesn't even understand sound synthesis)? Unfortunately, the video didn't finish recording, but that's exactly what I wanted to add in this video.

Jake's Custom Shop Quad Arpeggiator - Eurorack Module Kickstarter

video upload by Jake's Custom Shop

"What if you could solo on the modular synth like a Rock Star?
Quad Arpeggiator isn't just 4 totally independent 16-step CV sequencers. It's a synth-soloing machine. Each Arpeggio has it's own button-knob for quick adjustment. Turn a knob to set pitch, click it to go to the next step, set the pitch and repeat. Press + Hold + Turn to set arpeggio lengths from 1 to 16 steps.

But here's where it really shines. Turn any knob quick and the Quad Arpeggiator rips through a pentatonic scale like your shredding on a guitar, or keyboard. (or keytar if that's your thing). Musical expertise not required.
Everything's tuned to pentatonic scale, so: it. just. sounds. awesome. period.

Four Clock Inputs, Four 1 Volt-Per-Octave CV outputs.

Back the Quad ADSR on Launch Day, (Nov 1st) and get 32% OFF + These Absolutely Crazy Bright Red 1980's Sweat Bands so you can look, feel and play your modular synth like a Rock Star:

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/..."

"Write Four Parts Fast.

Quad Arpeggiator gives you four independent 16-step minor pentatonic melodic lanes you can shape in real time, so hooks, basslines, counter-melodies, and fills come together fast.

How it works

Connect CV OUT 1 to a VCO.

Turn ARP 1 knob to set the pitch of your first note.

Short Press ARP 1 Knob to go to the next step.

Repeat steps 2 and 3 until you have a complete sequence.
