Did Jacob Brashears Reinvent the Synthesizer? — THE RELIC


video upload by Anthony Marinelli Music

See the Shear Electronics label for additional posts.

"THIS SYNTH IS NEXT LEVEL!
A few years ago, I first met Jacob Brashears at NAMM, where he debuted an extraordinary new synthesizer called the Relic. Now, the Relic is finished and after spending time with it, I think it’s worth asking:

Is this the most impressive synthesizer made in the last 40 years?

In this video, Jacob takes me through the Relic’s front panel and shows how this remarkable instrument works. Then I get behind the keyboard and play sounds that I created in just a few hours. The Relic has an incredibly expressive character that seems to combine the best qualities of classic vintage Oberheim, Moog, and ARP synthesizers with some very sophisticated modern technology.

It has the immediacy and character of the great analog instruments of the past, while incorporating modern advancements, routing and expression…and even the ability to continue evolving through future firmware updates. One of the things that really surprised me is the Relic’s distortion. I demonstrate sounds with distortion that feels remarkably organic and nonlinear, much more like the behavior of a great guitar amplifier than conventional synthesizer distortion.

I’ll also play expressive keyboard sounds, leads, basses, and other patches I created while exploring the instrument, so you can hear what the Relic is capable of in the hands of a musician. Jacob has clearly put an enormous amount of thought into this synthesizer, and the result is an instrument that feels both deeply connected to synthesizer history and genuinely forward-looking.

Watch Jacob take you through the Relic and hear what happens when I get my hands on it."

These Plugins Sound AMAZING… Except One


video upload by Keith Crosley

"Space Age Strings, Traveler 1.1, Arturia MiniFreak V, and Liminal Space 2 RC6: three plugins I'm excited about, and one that's... fine. Your old pal Keith demos vintage strings, custom wavetable import, Bloom and reverse reverb, and gloriously backward shoegaze. Grab your mod wheel for another episode of your favorite talky synthesizer content show!

First up: Authentic Soundware's Space Age Strings, with gorgeous legatos, vintage ribbon-mic character, and serious Mancini energy. We pair those nine violins with Liminal Space 2's new Space Age Scoring Stage preset and compare the library's built-in reverb with some algorithmic spaciousness.

Then we revisit Traveler! Version 1.1 fixes the big wavetable-workflow frustrations from my previous review: now I can point it at my existing KRC Mathwaves folders without duplicating gigabytes of content. Cue polygonal bells, Morlet wavelet vowels, and a much happier Keith. We also try MiniFreak V's new user-wavetable import. It's great to have it, but I've got opinions about the workflow, the effects, and whether the software version floats my boat.

Finally, we explore my Liminal Space 2 RC6 reverb for macOS and Windows: MIDIverb II-inspired Bloom sounds, reverse-style swells, ACTUAL reversed audio, and instant imaginary Cocteau Twins guitar with Native Instruments' Electric Sunburst Deluxe. We build Bloom effects on piano, shape them with curves and wavetables, and explore Reverse Capture's Diffuse and Clear modes. Then we get dark and wobbly with Clockwarp and the new Vulture 224 filter, inspired by Alex at Vulture Culture. Woot!

Disclosure: Authentic Soundware kindly supplied Space Age Strings; this is not paid placement. I purchased Traveler myself. Liminal Space 2 and KRC Mathwaves are my own products. Liminal Space 2 is demonstrated in RC6; the RC7 Follow feature is teased for a future video."

Polyvera Synth - Born from a Love of '80s Sounds | Superbooth 2026


video upload by Music Journey with Paul

"At Superbooth 2026, I talked with Stefano from SuonoBuono about Polyvera - a synthesizer that took around four years to develop and was born from a simple idea: building the instrument he couldn't find on the market.

Chapters
00:00 Intro
00:14 Suono Buono = Sounds Good
00:47 How long did it take you to produce the Polyvera synth?
02:02 Who is Polyvera for and what gap does it try to fill on the market?
03:09 What makes Polyvera stand out?
03:51 Stefano’s role in the company
04:05 Where is it produced?
04:23 The plans for the future
04:48 Recent new features

Polyvera combines the character of early digital instruments - samples, wavetables, aliasing and that unmistakable '80s digital texture - with analog filters designed to have real personality.

We talk about the story behind SuonoBuono, Stefano's inspirations from PPG and early Akai, and Roland samplers, why he deliberately didn't follow current synth market trends, and what makes Polyvera different.

Stefano also talks about the latest developments, including a new hybrid analog/digital wavefolder, new sounds and modulation possibilities that can create some seriously strange recursive feedback.

Designed and produced in Stockholm, Sweden.

"The Memorymoog is a classic for its epically fat sound! Though it's not a Plus, we actually prefer non-plus Memorymoogs around here as they are significantly more reliable. This particular unit is in beautiful cosmetic condition as well.

This Memorymoog was previously serviced by Memorymoog specialist Jareth Lackey at Synthpro, and all of the work has been checked by us to make sure it is up to our standards as well. As a finishing touch, we installed our own Memory Liberator upgrade which allows perpetual storage of patch memory without a battery.

This Memorymoog also comes with a Moog 1122 Dual Footswith Pedal, and original owner's manual.

S/N 2268

We believe in transparency when selling “pro serviced” synths so always include documentation of what services every synth we sell has received. Our approach to servicing vintage instruments entails both making sure every synth is working 100% now, and eliminating common failure points to preempt future issues.

This unit received the following services while it was here with us:

Primarily serviced by Jareth Lackey at Synthpro Restorations, we don't have the original invoice but here is what we can tell was done:

Power supply updated
all electrolytic capacitors replaced
Unreliable chips (analog switching ICs, op amps, resistor arrays) replaced

MARS Vacuum-Tube Synthesizer: The Most Aggressive Modern Synth I've Ever Tested

20:16 FM Synthesis Overview
29:00 Pros & Cons
37:43 Closing Thoughts

"What happens when you build a vacuum tube-based hybrid synthesizer in a Soviet space lab and send it back from the future? Today we’re demoing, reviewing, and explaining MARS from Eternal Engine Electronic Musical Instruments — one of the strangest, most beautiful, and most aggressive modern synthesizers I’ve ever played.

MARS is often described as a four-voice polyphonic tube synthesizer, but architecturally it’s more accurately a paraphonic synthesizer. The four digital oscillator voices can be played across multiple notes, but they all share the same tube-based filter and vactrol-based amplifier. That puts MARS more in the tradition of instruments like the Korg Mono/Poly and Formanta Polivoks than a conventional analog polysynth.

In this video, I walk through the full architecture of the Eternal Engine MARS: the digital oscillator section, mono / duo / poly voice modes, pulse-width modulation, ensemble mode, FM synthesis, modulation matrix, envelopes, LFO, sample & hold, the gorgeous Nixie lamp interface, the resonant vacuum tube filter, and the asymmetric tube overdrive that gives this synth its raw, snarling character.

This is not a safe, polite, modern analog synth. MARS is boutique, unusual, heavy, beautifully built, and absolutely vicious when pushed. The tube filter and drive section give it a sound that feels alive in a way most modern synthesizers don’t — somewhere between vintage analog synth, industrial bass machine, experimental sound design box, and Soviet sci-fi artifact.

If you’re into industrial music, EBM, darkwave, synthwave, experimental electronic music, vintage synthesizers, boutique synths, tube distortion, paraphonic synthesis, analog filters, FM basses, PWM pads, or Polivoks-style aggression, MARS is worth hearing.

I also talk through who I think this synth is actually for — and who should probably pass on it. Because while I absolutely adore the sound, MARS is not a cheap “do everything” synth, and it’s not trying to compete with mass-market analog polysynths. It’s a character instrument. A monster. A special machine for people who want something truly different."

Korg PE-1000 Polyphonic Ensemble P Synthesizer — EXC Condition with lid and key SN 770697

Note: links to listings are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.


via this eBay listing

"Up for sale is a beautiful Korg PE-1000 — a.k.a. Polyphonic Ensemble P — synthesizer from 1976. This one is in excellent condition and comes with the original lid and — a rarity! — the key for the lock. PLEASE NOTE: The stand shown here is not included. It's for display only.

Everything is working properly on this, and it sounds great. Note that the Glide feature — essentially note bend up or down — is activated by a foot switch plugged into the back of the synth. This is by design per the PE1000 owner’s manual on the Korg site. No pedal is provided, but any switching or damper pedal (which I’ve used) will work fine.

LoFi Future - Fragmenter 45 Circuit Bent HDMI Video Glitch Processor


video upload by LoFiFuture

"Available to order here: https://www.lofifuture.shop/product/f...

Track: LoFi Future - Canicular Days
https://lofifuture.bandcamp.com/track...
https://open.spotify.com/album/5oSvIp...

The Fragmenter 45 is a circuit bent Extron 1604 HDMI Scaler. It is a very high quality unit that demanded a very high retail price when originally released. The HDMI signal integrity is pixel perfect and doesn't compress your image when passed through this thing. It processes 1080p 60fps signals without even breaking a sweat!

This one features some effects that are new to myself, targeting a specific part of the clock circuitry that I have not experimented with before on any other device. The 3 push buttons trigger different clock glitch effects that completely take over the signal and make some mesmerizing patterns. They are an extreme and immediate set of effects, perfect for the most intense parts of a live visual performance. A bonus feature of these buttons is that when subtle artefacts build up on the screen after a while even when the effects are all off, a quick press of one of these buttons and they are all cleared! No need for a reset mid performance!

Another effect unique to this device in the horizontal warp effect that makes the clean HDMI signal degrade into something that looks like a weak analog transmission.

8 knobs control the colour digitise effect and another 9 knobs control the "fragment" effect section that splits the image up and repeats it in slices at a 45 degree angle. These two banks of knobs can be linked together with a toggle switch for even more effect possibilities.

This unit also features a VGA input and can scale the signal to a HDMI output, all of the effects work the same when doing so."

Drift DJ Industries Unveils Zero Pocket-Sized Mixing, Playback and Recording Device


video uploads by Drift DJ Industries

Press release follows:


Drift DJ Industries Unveils Zero, a pocket-sized mixing, playback and recording device for djs and electronic musicians

CHICAGO, April 13, 2026. Drift DJ Industries announces Zero, a palm-sized, battery-powered, all-in-one audio mixing, performance and recording system. With its portability and instant-on playability, Zero’s standalone 2-deck DJ system empowers DJs to break outside of the booth and bring their sound to any space. Through it’s DAWless and hybrid DJ-oriented external device sync, audio signal mixing, deep routing configuration and built-in recorder, Zero collapses key functions into a single machine, reducing the amount of hardware required to craft any sound.

Zero: Portable DJ, DAWless, Mixing and Recording

Big-Rig DJ-Features in the Palm of Your Hand

Don’t be fooled by Zero’s small size. Its robust feature set includes DJ-quality time-stretching, dedicated headphone cues, filters and FX for each playback deck. With physical controls organized in a familiar-two channel DJ mixer layout, our device is perfect for DJs who want to forgo larger laptop and controller-based setups while retaining the tactile feedback not found on mobile apps. Leave the cables and power supplies at home. Never get a meeting invite in the middle of a mix.

Compact Machine with DAW-Like Powers
Zero’s wildly-flexible signal routing UI lets users control every link in the signal path. Glue together any collection of music-making gear by routing signals from aux busses and the decks between the analog and USB I/O ports.

For example: Route audio from a Dirtywave M8 and a Roland S-1 into Zero’s analog input ports, and individually trim and EQ each device. Bus those signals together and send/return to a Hologram Chroma Console. Route that signal into the crossfader to mix the effected M8 and S-1 sound with the DJ decks. Add an OXI E-16 and map individual knobs to the M8 and S-1 bus’s post-fader, EQ controls and bi-modal filter cutoff (input control mapping is slated for post-launch release). Record several minutes of knob-tweaking as a .wav file to Zero's internal storage. Re-import that .wav file, add cuepoints and a beatgrid, and loop and layer it in with other inputs and DJ playback.

Built to Evolve
Zero is a new hardware platform and a custom Linux distribution running front-end software from our own publicly-available open source SDK. It ships with the DJ playback, library, external sync, signal routing and recording features, and it includes on-device software management for easy install of future updates. Planned updates include control input mapping, video output for streamers, third-party library support (including rekordbox and Engine DJ) and accessibility features. It fits in a fanny pack, but Zero will develop new capabilities by the truckload.

See our device specs and release roadmap for more info.

Meet Zero in Person
Stop by our exhibitor tables at the following events:
SynthFest France, Nantes, April 17th-19th
Superbooth, Berlin, May 7th-9th

Pricing and Availability
Zero is in presale and priced at $899, with an expected release date of Summer 2026.

Additional Signal Sounds listings

"We say...
A pre-owned Sequential Trigon-6 in very good condition. It comes with original packaging and power cable

Manufacturer's description
Experience the Power of Three Oscillators and a Ladder Filter with the Trigon-6 Module

The Sequential Trigon-6 desktop module delivers the same massive sound and hands-on sonic control as the Trigon-6 Keyboard. It features the same pure analog signal path with discrete oscillators and filters, and the same high-quality digital effects. It also has the same intuitive layout with full-sized knobs and switches that make it quick and easy to shape new sounds.

The Trigon-6 module sounds huge — just like the keyboard, because it is the same six voice polyphonic instrument, just in a smaller form factor. And if you want even more polyphony, you can use the poly chain feature to link any two Trigon-6s for a stunning twelve-voice synth!

A Sound That is Bold and Familiar

The Trigon-6 is Sequential’s polyphonic take on the classic, thick and creamy, 3-oscillator-plus-ladder-filter analog sound that defined the dawn of the synth era. It’s a sound that bridges genres and styles — now refined and redefined with Sequential’s own modern imprint.
