Magic Crystal
A Portal to an Enchanted Modular Dimension
Beyond ELFO's extraordinary versatility and power, the Magic Crystal function opens a portal to an entirely new world of modulation:
The crystal intercepts, redirects, and transforms modulation paths according to its own magical logic Abandon conventional control and let ELFO take on a life of its own through its magic crystal.
The crystal autonomously decides what, when, and how frequently to intervene Experience an inverted world where traditional modulation rules are disrupted and reinvented
"At Superbooth 2025, I had the pleasure of discovering Enjoy Electronics, an Italian company pushing the boundaries of modular synthesis. Their latest creation, the DeFeel, is a standout module designed to inject creativity and variation into your sequences.
What is DeFeel?
The DeFeel is a Modular Monotony Degenerator that sits between your sequencer and the rest of your modular setup. It allows you to break the linearity of sequences by introducing dynamic fills and variations, making your performances more expressive and less predictable.
Key Features:
Dual Independent Channels: Each with Gate/CV outputs for complex modulation.
4.3" Multi-Touch Interface: Intuitive control over patterns and parameters.
Advanced XY Mode: Real-time performance control with expressive gestures.
Dynamic Density Sequencing: From 1 to 64 gates per step, offering intricate rhythmic possibilities.
Multiple Playback Modes: Including Forward, Reverse, and Ping-Pong.
Comprehensive Modulation System: For all parameters, with real-time morphing.
Connectivity: 4 CV inputs, 2 Gate inputs, Clock, Play, and Reset inputs, plus 4 CV and 2 Gate outputs.
Why It Stands Out:
The DeFeel isn't just another sequencer; it's a tool that encourages spontaneity and live interaction. By allowing you to "degenerate" monotony, it brings a fresh approach to modular performances, making each session unique and engaging.
About Enjoy Electronics:
Based in Italy, Enjoy Electronics is dedicated to creating innovative tools that enhance musical expression. Their commitment to quality and creativity is evident in the DeFeel, which combines sleek design with powerful functionality."
"On March 27, 2025, we welcomed the creators of OXI Instruments for a packed and inspiring evening. The event featured the unveiling of the OXI One MKII, the next-generation performance sequencer, and showcased the Coral, their powerful modular mini-polysynth.
Guests were treated to an in-depth look at the updated OXI One, which builds on the original’s success with expanded sequencing capabilities, improved workflow features, a larger OLED screen, and even more generative and performance tools. The Coral module also impressed with its compact design, full polyphony, and diverse synthesis engines.
After the presentations, visitors had the opportunity to get hands-on with the gear, speak directly with the developers, and enjoy a relaxed evening of music technology exploration. The event took place in our showroom in Berlin-Neukölln and drew a strong crowd of curious synth enthusiasts."

"This 1970s Wurlitzer 'Music Learning Module' inspires with its simplicity, making just one sound.
It sounds like a transistor organ, playing a simple, unfiltered waveform. No sensitivity to velocity and a simple gate-like envelope. Immediate attack, immediate release. We could easily recreate this sound with a modern day synthesizer, but would we have been as drawn to or inspired by that sound if it wasn’t coming out of this bright blue relic? Probably not.
We hooked it up to Chroma Console to add a little bit more variety and life to the static nature of the sound. Maybe we’ll make a longer video of this pairing, but until then, enjoy this little synth-pop jam!"
"At the London Synth & Pedal Expo, we caught up with Luca Simone from *Enjoy Electronics*, who detailed the features of their *DeFeel *module. The device was introduced to sit between a sequencer and a synthesizer in a modular setup, allowing you to customize step-generated sequences and manage fill lengths.
The DeFeel includes multiple CV outputs, each with optional quantization, enabling you to independently set minimum and maximum CV values. An intuitive touch interface simplifies navigation, even allowing real-time recording of adjustments made directly on the device."
"The Solar 42F's sequencer is set to 4 steps, triggering VCO B while LFO A triggers the envelope of VCO A. The Drone Voices are manually triggered to play the bass line while the output of VCO A and B are sent out to The Godfather for additional filtering, delay, and reverb. The output of The Godfather is then fed back into the Solar 42F's External Audio input. The master output of the Solar 42F is finally sent to the Infinity FX cartridge. Recorded in real-time with no external effects/processing (other than The Godfather on VCO A and B). Enjoy!"
"We caught up with Luca from Enjoy Electronics at their stylish NAMM booth where they presented their latest device, the *Defeel*, a modular monotony degenerator. Inspired by vintage analog drum machines, the Defeel is designed to sit between your sequencer and modular synths. It processes incoming CVs and gates through its interface, allowing for complex modulation without altering the original input signal.
Luca explained that the Defeel features a pass-through mode and can set the duration of fills, with gate repetitions adjustable up to 64 steps. It doubles as a CV recorder, offering intriguing morphing possibilities. With two channels, you can control and modulate four CVs and two gates per channel. Furthermore, it has an XY mode for recording live motion with time, frequency, and reverb modulation.
The Defeel is available for pre-order, offering both standalone and Eurorack formats, priced at €299 and €399 respectively.

"We are treated to a demo of The Godfather, a new Eurorack-compatible multi-channel audio process from Italy-based Enjoy Electronics. It was an offer we couldn't refuse.
The Godfather processes 4 separate audio channels, allowing you to mix, equalize, compress, saturate, filter, and add emphasizing effects."
"Hologram’s home base (Knoxville, Tennessee) exhibits pretty stunning colors during the season’s change into winter. This song initially started as a backing track for a short video we made about the Hohner Pianet and Chroma Console, but we thought it would be cool to turn it into something a bit larger in scope and film the performance outside while the autumn landscape is at peak vibrance.
We get a lot of comments asking us to make longer versions of the demos/songs we write to showcase our pedals, so this is us making good on those requests. This is an original piece written, performed, and filmed by Hologram staff - we hope you enjoy!"
"Here's a little demo on what I believe to be the second made Roland SH-101 Red monosynth. If you look at the serial number it is: #00002, which indicates to me that it's the 2nd synth in the production line.
Besides, the cool history from the owner, the SH-101 packs a lot in such a small package! It has a 3 Waveforms, PWM, LFO, Sequencer, Arpeggiator, and lots of CV input/output controls. It was made very popular in the 1990s for 'House Music'
This SH-101 needed the Power supply rebuilt, the sliders replaced, full calibration/tuning, power switch replacement and the keybed cleaned/rebuilt. Enjoy the video! Thanks for watching!"
BlueARP DM sequences drums, using SR-909 as a sound module and using 'trigger probability' settings, so there is a slight touch of randomness in this rhythm, which is impossible to do with 909's own sequencer.

"Step up to the legendary warmth and brilliance of classic Oberheim, reborn in the compact, powerful TEO-5. Dive into authentic analog tones, push boundaries with modern modulations and effects, and create like Thomas Elroy Oberheim always dreamed. TEO-5 is more than a synth, it's your sonic legacy, waiting to be written.
"Today, I unbox and demo the incredible Oberheim TEO-5 synthesizer. In the video I also discuss TEO-5 with the man himself Tom Oberheim who graciously gave me an intimate introduction to his latest and greatest synthesizer. 🚀"
"Today, Oberheim Electronics has just announced the release of their new synthesizer: TEO-5 -- a five-voice analog synthesizer. In this video, Julian "J3PO" Pollack reviews the synth and performs numerous sound examples.
"Following up from my work on the beta development and sound design on the Oberheim OB-X8, I was pleasantly surprised to find that the next Oberheim synth would be the TEO-5. Unpacking the beta unit revealed a beautiful and cleverly designed 5 voice analog synth that simply sounds amazing.
The size of the TEO-5 is absolutely perfect for world wide gigging and the sound is a sort of best of Oberheim with a modern twist. That modern twist doesn't exclusively come from the excellent FX processor on board, but also from the interesting modulation options and ranges. While you can push the synth into harmonic and saturated zones, it still, like all Oberheims remains one large sweet spot.
Don't be fooled by the smaller size and voice count, there is nothing small about the sound and capability of the TEO-5. Not to be missed.
Please note this recording is of a beta development unit running an early firmware. The sounds featured here are the patches I made for the shipping factory bank that comes with the synth straight from Oberheim.
Recorded at Infinite Power Studios, Los Angeles. All patches by Matia Simovich/INHALT. Video edited by Grover Greenberg."
"At Superbooth 2024 we met up with David Gibbons from Oberheim who introduced us to the new TEO-5 synthesizer. Named after Tom Oberheim with an exclusive reveal of Tom's middle name, the TEO-5 has a SEM filter, two oscillators and a sub giving that classic Oberheim sound, but with lots of features to bring its capabilities right up to date.
Chris Calcutt then stepped up, and gave us a demo of the sound of this synth. TEO-5 gives us 19 mod slots with tons of destinations, both a mono and a poly LFO, two envelopes and a capable twin FX section. Uniquely there is a cross-mod section with thru-zero capabilities, which allows FM modulation that stays in tune up and down the keyboard.
With a similar form factor to the Take 5, the TEO-5 has a 3 and a half octave Fatar keyboard with aftertouch, and is designed to give the Oberheim sound in a more portable and affordable package
"A Quick Look any the new Oberheim TEO-5 - named after Tom Edison Oberheim - there was a leak a few weeks back but it's here in the flesh.. and nice it is too.
Its got the same form factor as there Sequential Take 5. The big addition is obviously the Oberheim filter, and a through zero FM - so it looks like it has the new SSI chip.
Anyway.. just a Quick Look.. enjoy:)"

Introducing the New Oberheim TEO-5 Polyphonic Synthesizer
TEO-5: The Legendary Oberheim Sound Reborn in a Compact Powerhouse
San Francisco, CA – [May 16, 2024] – Oberheim, the venerable brand synonymous with the golden age of synthesizers, proudly announces the TEO-5 polysynth. This powerful instrument features the visionary craftsmanship of Thomas Elroy Oberheim (TEO), offering a perfect blend of classic analog warmth and modern versatility for today's musicians.
“I’m so proud to be able to make a synth like this... compact and affordable, the Oberheim sound for 2024,” says Tom Oberheim, the company’s founder. TEO-5 is designed to make the classic Oberheim tone palette widely accessible, encapsulating decades of analog engineering experience in a forward-thinking and innovative musical instrument.
The TEO-5 boasts a five-voice architecture with genuine analog VCOs and VCFs, capturing the distinctive warmth and depth that defined countless hit records. But TEO-5 isn't just a tribute to the past. Additions like through-zero FM, which adds a contemporary twist to its oscillator X-Mod feature, allow for the exploration of entirely new sonic textures. And the legendary Oberheim SEM filter returns, offering the versatility of morphing between low- pass, notch, and high-pass configurations, along with a switchable band-pass mode for extensive tonal shaping. Beyond its core synthesis architecture, TEO-5 features a comprehensive modulation matrix, opening a world of possibilities for sculpting and transforming sounds. Digital effects processors provide classic chorus, delay, reverb, and more, alongside faithful recreations of the revered Oberheim Ring Mod and Phasor effects. A 64-step polyphonic sequencer and multimode arpeggiator further fuel creative exploration, while a premium Fatar keybed ensures a responsive and inspiring playing experience.
“There was a huge surge of interest when Oberheim returned in 2022 with the historically inspired OB-X8,” said David Gibbons, CEO of Oberheim. “But Tom and the design team were keen to show that the magic of Oberheim can be within reach for everyone, and can bring a distinctive modern flavor. TEO-5 is an exciting addition to the Oberheim legacy.” Whether you're a seasoned professional seeking a powerful new sonic tool or a budding artist embarking on your analog adventure, TEO-5 is your gateway to unparalleled musical exploration.
Mike Pinder was the keyboard player and a founding member of The Moody Blues. Prior to that he worked on the manufacturing of the first Mellotrons in the UK. According to mellotronics.com, "Streetly Electronics are the original UK manufacturer of mellotrons and world experts in the instrument."
"Between 1962-63 Pinder worked for 18 months as an engineer at Streetly Electronics, in Streetly, Birmingham, a factory manufacturing the first models of Mellotron in the UK.
In May 1964 Pinder left Streetly Electronics to co-found The Moody Blues with Ray Thomas, Denny Laine, Clint Warwick and Graeme Edge."
His impact becomes clear when you read the following from Music of the Daze:
"This from my friend Nicklas Barker, guitarist, singer and composer from Swedish proggers Anekdoten. He is also a connoisseur of the Mellotron:
'Very sad, imagine if he had not started working at the Mellotron factory and done something else before joining The Moody Blues and introducing the glorious Mellotron string sound to a wider audience through Nights in White Satin. What would have happened then? No King Crimson? He was also friends with John Lennon and introduced the Mellotron to him. No Strawberry Fields? Mike Pinder was the first, and the impact of his use of the Mellotron changed music history. He was also the greatest Mellotron player ever. Just listen to Out and In from To Our Children’s Children’s Children. He was the wizard of the astral orchestra.'"
"Mike Pinder describes how the mellotron works in the fabulous 'Live at Isle of Wight Festival (1970)' You really should buy this DVD, it's not only a great documentary but a wonderful concert film as well. The sound is surprisingly good, you will enjoy it."
"Here's the Moody's live on French TV. You can really see/hear what Mike Pinder contributed to the sound of that band. Without him and the MK 2, they would have just been another guitar band. It's startling how much they sounded like the records live!"
