Moog Muse: 64 Retro Cinematic Ambient Presets. Sound Demo

video upload by Anton Anru

🌃 'Echoes Of Machines' is a collection of 64 atmospheric cinematic presets for Moog Muse.
🗂 It includes: 19 Keys, 9 Leads, 5 Pads, 9 Strings, 12 Synths, 4 Drones, and 6 Textures.
📺 The soundset draws inspiration from sci-fi movies, cinematic soundtracks, dystopian worlds, urban landscapes, retro electronica, noise ambient albums, experimental modern art, and contemporary sound design.
📼 Built around the concept of imperfection, the collection blends gritty, lo-fi textures with constantly shifting timbres shaped through deep modulation.

📦 The download link: https://antonanru.sellfy.store/p/muse...

📻 The timbral range is wide and diverse, covering dark, noisy, lo-fi, warm, deep, retro/vintage, melancholic, atmospheric, detuned, cold, distant, dull, massive, epic, bright, distorted, metallic, tense, atonal, non-harmonic, FX-like, evolving, and sweeping textures.

🎛 All patches are Velocity-sensitive. The ModWheel enhances expressiveness by adding motion and tonal variation—brightening the sound, introducing vibrato, shifting timbre, or adding extra movement for dynamic and engaging performance.

Aftertouch introduces distortion, increases sustain, or speeds up modulations.
The Macro Knob introduces additional changes—it enhances the stereo effect or detuning, adds bright overtones, or adds modulation to the filter or oscillators.

Additional SYNTH CITY Listings

"The Sequential Multitrak (released in 1985) is a six-voice analog synthesizer notable for combining true analog sound with early digital control.

Each voice has a CEM3394 synth-on-a-chip, offering a single oscillator, sub-oscillator, noise source, and resonant low-pass filter. It was one of the first affordable synths to feature a built-in sequencer and MIDI implementation, making it popular for both studio and live use.

The Multitrak’s panel and parameter editing system allowed deep sound design, though programming could be a bit tedious. Its warm, punchy tone and distinctive Sequential character make it a cult favorite among vintage synth enthusiasts today.

This one works like a charm and has that analog warmth you've been looking for in a polysynth."

"Sound bank notes

In my opinion, the Murmux Adept is a modern classic among synthesizers. It oozes quality and depth with a vintage analog sound and a strong personality. The oscillators, filters and analog stereo bucket brigade delay (BBD) interact to create a rich palette of timbres, with an inclination towards dark ambient textures.

It excels at ambient pads, textures and atmospheres so I have exploited this in many of my patches. I have also created more conventional sounds such as strings and brass which sing with power and majesty – rivalling those of the Sequential Prophet 5. Lead sounds are another strength of the Murmux, so you will find many within the bank ranging from pure triangles and sines through to aggressive and expressive saws.

Although the Murmux looks like a very simple synth - lacking complex features like a modulation matrix, in fact it is possible to create many layers of modulation simultaneously. You can for instance, assign velocity (how hard you press the keys) to modulate envelope times while also morphing between waveforms in both oscillators and using aftertouch to control filter cutoff and resonance. In this sound bank I have used modulation comprehensively and all patches have parameters assigned to the mod wheel as well as aftertouch and/ or velocity to maximise the expressiveness of the sounds.

The delay is a big feature of this synth so I have used it a lot, although you will also find traditional analog synth patches with no effects at all. The BBD resonator and ensemble modes are powerful, yet I have tended to use them for subtle modulation to thicken sounds or to create gentle flanging.

Dreadbox Murmux Adept: a Musical Exploration

video upload by Synth Universe

"A musical exploration of sounds and timbres featuring custom-created patches.

I think the Murmux Adept is a modern classic among analog poly synths, even though it was released as a limited edition in 2024 and is only attainable on the used market. It oozes quality and depth with a vintage analog sound and a strong personality. The oscillators, filters and analog stereo bucket brigade delay (BBD) interact to create a rich palette of timbres, with an inclination towards dark ambient textures."

"All sounds in this video are individual patches played straight from the synth except for ‘Alhaqueca’ and ‘Ambient layers’ which are layered tracks. No external enhancement or processing was applied to the sounds except on the track ‘Alhaqueca’ where I used a software delay plugin and a little compression and EQ when mastering."

It's Finally Here // UDO DMNO Review and demo

video upload by Starsky Carr

"The UDO Domino *is here… and it might be one of the most interesting hybrid synths we’ve seen in years. In this full demo, review, and walkthrough, I explore what makes this *8-voice hybrid polysynth so unique — from its dual synth architecture to its incredibly flexible filter section and deep modulation capabilities.

With FPGA oscillators, analog-style waveforms, 32 digital waves, and a powerful dual-engine design inspired by classic SEM-style layouts, the Domino sits somewhere between vintage character and modern sonic experimentation. And yes… it can get beautifully weird.

In this video, you’ll hear real-world sound demos, explore the interface, and see how far you can push this synth — from lush pads to aggressive, experimental textures.

🎛️ What you’ll learn in this video:
Overview of the UDO Domino architecture
Dual synth engines (Domino 1 & 2) and layering possibilities
FPGA oscillators + digital waveforms
Deep modulation options (LFOs, envelopes, cross-modulation)
Advanced filter modes: low pass, band pass, high pass, phase & more
Stereo, parallel & series routing
Effects: chorus, drive, delay, reverb & EQ
Play modes, binaural mode & voice variations
Real sound demos and performance examples

🎧 Why this synth stands out
The Domino goes far beyond a traditional polysynth. With extreme flexibility in routing, modulation, and filtering, it behaves more like an experimental sound design tool than a conventional keyboard — while still being intuitive and hands-on.

🎹 My verdict
This isn’t just another synth — it’s a playable, exploratory instrument that encourages experimentation and rewards creativity. If you like synths that go beyond the obvious… this one’s worth a serious look."

Dark Ambient Synthesizer Performance / Post Apocalyptic Vibes

Primarily featuring the Korg Z1 and Modal Electronics Argon and Cobalt synths. KORG MULTI/POLY comes in at the end.

"🌌 'The Last Echo of Dystopia' is not merely a performance; it is a sonic excavation of a world left in silence.

From the heart of the studio to the vast, decaying expanse of a forgotten wasteland, these frequencies bridge the gap between what was and what will never be again.

🎹 The Sound of Decay:
Through the electric veins of my synthesizers, we trace the contours of ruins and the whispers of the wind across the dunes. Deep, resonant pulses serve as the heartbeat of a dying era, while ethereal leads shimmer like heat haze on a scorched horizon....

Introducing BLEASS Peaks: The Playable Polyphonic Filter Is Here (MIDI Performance Revolution)

video upload by BLEASS

"Meet BLEASS Peaks, a new generation audio filter that turns traditional filtering into a fully playable performance instrument.

➡️ In Internal mode, you can shape the sound using up to 32 resonant peaks/notches.
➡️ In MIDI mode, the plug-in becomes a playable polyphonic filter, where MIDI notes control the filter frequency. You can run up to 8 filter voices at the same time.

This lets you play filter movement using MIDI notes or chords, shaping drum loops and synths in real time. You can create evolving filter patterns, rhythmic effects, and perform filtering like a musical instrument.

🎨 Additional tools include 5 FX slots (distortion, delay, compression, bitcrush, and filters), plus LFOs, envelopes, and macros.

Discover its full features right now: http://bleass.com/peaks/"

BLEASS Peaks unites classic audio filtering with the spontaneous spirit of performance to deliver an entirely new class of creative filtering effects.

The plugin is built around BLEASS’ advanced multi-peak polyphonic filter design. When set to Internal control mode, this creates a single bell-filter curve containing up to 32 resonant peaks/notches. Details of the filter curve, such as the quantity, root frequency, and spread of the peaks/notches, are set parametrically, making it easy to shape the filter’s response and bring it to life via the plugin’s synth-style modulation sources.

BLEASS Peaks truly comes into its own when operating in MIDI mode. In this configuration, the filter’s root frequency is controlled via MIDI coming from live-played notes or a recorded track. Better still, BLEASS Peaks can generate up to eight such filters simultaneously, making this a true polyphonic filter.

MIDI control makes the filter fully playable and performable, opening up a whole new constellation of original and compelling filtering effects. Drum loops can be tuned to follow chord progressions, rhythmic harmonic pulses can be added to pads, arpeggios can be brought to life with complex frequency-shifting chorus effects… the creative possibilities are endless.

Additional colour and detail can be added to Peaks’ filtering via a set of five assignable Effects slots. These allow you to enhance the filtered sound with distortions, dynamics processors, delay, and even conventional low- and high-pass filters.

As with the filter itself, Peaks’ effects can be brought to life by the plugin’s various modulation sources, with each modulator mappable to up to four destination parameters. There are three LFOs, three envelopes triggered by the incoming audio plus a fourth triggered via MIDI, and four Macro controls. Alongside these internal modulators, the plugin also recognises various realtime MIDI CC and MPE sources.

Used as a conventional single-voice filter, BLEASS Peaks is at the top of its game, allowing easy-yet-deep control over the spectrum of your audio, and offering many ways to inject life and movement into the effect. Enabling MIDI control makes that advanced filter behave as a playable instrument, unshackling you from the limitations of conventional filtering and giving you direct hands-on control over the effect.

However you choose to use it, BLEASS Peaks is a uniquely creative, intuitive and fun tool for shaping, colouring, and injecting originality into your music.

Sequential FOURM vs Prophet 5

video upload by Starsky Carr

"Is the Sequential FOURM effectively a "Prophet 4"? In this deep-dive comparison, I put Sequential’s compact powerhouse up against the legendary Prophet 5 to see how closely it recreates that iconic vintage DNA.

While the FORUM shares a strikingly intuitive Prophet-style interface—complete with dual oscillators, a resonant low-pass filter, and a dedicated polymod section—it also brings modern innovations to the table that the original Prophet simply can’t match.

We’ll explore the sonic character of the FORUM’s SSI chips, which act as modern recreations of the warm, fuzzy SSM chips found in the original Prophet 5 Rev 1 and Rev 2. By recreating classic factory patches side-by-side, we reveal the subtle differences in envelope behavior and modulation flexibility between these two analog beasts.

🎹 What’s Covered:
• The "Prophet 4" Factor: Comparing the interface, layout, and "familiar" feel of both synths.
• SSI vs. SSM vs. Curtis: Breaking down the filter and oscillator chips that define their warmth and grit.
• Modern Upgrades: Exploring the FORUM’s Poly Aftertouch, built-in arpeggiator, and digital clock sync.
• The Feedback Circuit: A demo of the FORUM's unique feedback loop that adds "MiniMoog-style" grit and prevents bass loss at high resonance—something the Prophet 5 famously struggles with.
• Patch Recreation: A side-by-side listening test of 8 classic patches to hear the real-world sonic differences.
