Maths, our own Boundary, and others while also bringing a few new things to the table.
I'll show you some of my favorite patches with it, most can apply to other similar modules so it might interesting to anyone.
"BOUNDARY LAYER by @SCHLAPPIENGINEERING is an apex triple function generator for eurorack. It has all the tricks up its sleeves and (as usual) is just a joy to work with due to it's well thought out interface and versatile feature set.
In this video I tried getting across how damn useful function generators are, how BOUNDARY LAYER works and how much fun it is to make patches with the module.
I hope you enjoy the video."
Boundary Layer is a triple cycling slew acting as a powerhouse of modulation, audio mayhem, and obscure modular tricks. Each of the channels can act individually as: -a modulation oscillator -voltage controlled slew (including portamento) -AR/AD envelope (decay or release determined by choice of input).
All three channels are tied together by three global inputs, as well as three outputs which select the MAX, MID, and MIN of all three voltages. Using different combinations at audio rate allows for patch programmable stereo drone synth capabilities.
Features

"Obscured Waves is a collection of 64 presets for Waldorf Blofeld that explores the darker, vintage-inspired side of sound design. The bank is built around the idea of imperfection—gritty, lo-fi textures combined with constantly shifting timbres created through rich modulation. These sounds are alive, expressive, and full of character, bringing a distinctive atmosphere to any track, performance, or video production.
🎛 The patches include dozens of modulations, adding motion and variation. Velocity sensitivity and ModWheel assignments are mapped for expressive control, making each sound performance-friendly. ModWheel adds modulations — brightening the sound, introducing vibrato, shifting tone, or adding extra movement for dynamic performance.
🔮 What sets Obscured Waves apart is its fusion of experimental tones and playable musical textures. Whether you’re crafting ambient, techno, cinematic, IDM, industrial, drum and bass, retrowave, or any style that leans into a dark atmospheric or moodier aesthetic, this soundset will give your music depth and identity.
🧿 Each preset was meticulously designed to deliver a tactile, emotional experience. Techniques such as noise layering, distortion, FM, and vintage tape emulation were used to evoke an analog character from this digital instrument. The result is a visceral set of sounds that feel aged, nostalgic, and imperfect—in all the right ways.
💡 Technical Information. How to import/upload presets. The presets are compatible with hardware Blofeld versions: desktop and keyboard; and with the official Blofeld VST Plugin. Make sure you are using the latest hardware firmware and vst-plugin versions.
No Samples and third-party wavetables are required. The soundset is made with the factory content only. The soundset comes in multiple formats: Bank in .syx format (Bank G) Bank in .mid format (Bank G) Bank in .blo format for Auraplugins Blofeld Editor/Librarian users Bank in .bpz format for the official Blofeld VST plugin users Separate presets in .syx format Separate presets in .mid format
The bank contains presets in slots 01–64. Slots 65–128 are Init Presets. SysEx transfer will overwrite the entire Bank G. Make a backup before loading. Set Device ID to 0 (zero). To load the presets onto the synthesizer, use a SysEx file utility: SysEx Librarian by Snoize (for Mac) or MIDI-OX/Bome Send SX (for Windows).

"At the latest NAMM show, we caught up with Gabriel from *Donner*, who introduced us to the *L1 Synthesizer*, a new unit that merges homage to classic designs with modern flair. While it shares a visual nod to the legendary SH-101, Donner was keen on establishing its unique identity. The L1 includes additional sound sources, most notably a warm triangle wave. The sub-oscillator offers three variations: a pulse wave an octave down, one two octaves down, and a variable pulse wave.
A standout feature was the external input capability, allowing you to process a guitar, other synths, or even vocals through the synth's filters and envelopes. An intriguing LFO design pushes into the audio rate, enabling FM modulation. The L1's onboard sequencer supports 64 steps per slot and allows you to store sequence presets--a handy addition for live settings. The L1 should be available Autumn 2025."
