"Welcome to Bad Gear, the show about the world’s most-hated audio tools. The 80s are oftentimes associated with Hollywood-worthy heroism, impeccable style and epic synth music that aged great - as long as it was played on instruments designed in the 70s.
Today, however, we are going to talk about K4. This digital synth , Kawai’s answer to Roland’s answer to Yamaha’s DX7 and more upscale successor to the K1 demonstrates impressively that the 80s were - first and foremost - VERY, VERY nerdy.

"Ever wanted to know what it's like to make a banger using just NINA, Melbourne Instruments motorized analog polysynth? Well now you can thanks to the NINA's new Multi-Track Sequencer update. In this video @Honeysmack jams on a single pattern exclusively using NINA. All recorded in a single unedited take. No other gear was harmed making this video. Imagine what you can do with a NINA now!
Here's a breakdown of the Pattern:
TRACK 1: BASSIC ACID - noisy monosynth sound.
TRACK 2: SLIDER ACID - main synth sound that slides around and gets wobbly.
TRACK 3: CRAZY PERCS - uncontrollable percussion sounds using the NINA's new Noise Types.
TRACK 4: BANGING KICK - you guessed it, the monster kick drum!
"Watch as OXI Instruments’ CEO dives into a live jam, bringing OXI One, Coral, and Meta together to show what the OXI ecosystem is truly capable of.
This is not a tutorial — it's a raw, live demonstration of what’s possible when all OXI gear is connected and played as one expressive instrument. Expect tight sequencing, rich polyphony, evolving textures, and seamless transitions.
All running together. All played live.
Whether you're curious about what these tools can do together, or you're already part of the OXI family, this is for you."
Just got my EMS Synthi AKS back from a thorough overhaul and with a stack of mods added (it’d already had some historic and less than pretty ones installed).
People often ask whether modifying a synth like this affects value. While there’s no denying it can feel sacrilegious when you’re talking about an exceptionally well preserved example, I am 100% for anything that means old gear will get used more.
One of the worst things you can do with old gear is put it on a shelf and not use it. We regularly get contacted by collectors (or people who no longer use their now valuable vintage synths) expecting top prices for their precious instruments which come ‘serviced’ and ‘working perfectly - last time I used it’. A little digging usually reveals this to have been a decade or more ago and the service work is ancient history.
So if modding that classic synth means you’ll play it more and enjoy it, that to me is a no brainer.
I understand that this puts us at odds with many vintage synth collectors, but the majority of our customers - who want to use them (shock horror) for making music - seem to agree.
Did you ever serve under #generalmidi #Roland
This is a Roland SD-35 Sound Canvas, which is a 3.5 inch GM\GS midi player. It can record also but I have not tried that.
The midi out is connected to the midi in of the SC-88vl so we are hearing its sounds.
If you have a SD-35 and wondering why you get NOP errors when trying to listening to a midi file. Try resaving the file as Format 0, make sure the tick rate is something normal like 240 or 480 and most importantly if theres no time signature event you have to add one, I use the software call Sekaiju to do this. It is windows only.
Filmed on a Sony ZV-e10 camera in 4K with a vintage Japanese made Soligor 35mm sawblade lens wide open, which gives the vintage glow.
Audio recorded on a Sony PCM-M10 which was placed in my studio were my head would be when mixing, JBL 305 monitors and a KRK sub.
Music used to demonstrate this vintage gear is The Secret of Monkey Island, by Micheal Land, property of Lucas Arts."
"Stephen McCaul, Chief Noisemaker of Noise Engineering, gives a quick rundown of his modular rig. This case is the one behind the jams he’s been posting lately.
Take a look at some of his favorite Noise Engineering oscillators, essential utilities, and a few prototypes hiding in plain sight he may or may not discuss.
Perfect for anyone curious about patch setups, module choices, and the gear behind the noise.
"Modular synths are more than tools, they're reality itself. This video explores why digital music can never truly be real, and why analog gear remains the only way to feel sound at the source.
The world is in transit, like it or not. Music evolved from the stage into the box, from real media to streams, and now from streams into learning models, weights, and rewards. We can endlessly debate whether AI is OK or not, but we can’t put the demons back into their bottles.
It’s a non-religious blessing to patch a real machine with real voltage. Every sound I make is Karma: cause and effect, wrapped in a false sense of choice and control. I love it. It’s a sanctuary.
And the VHIKK? Everything I say about it will only give you GAS. It’s one of the finest modules Eurorack has to offer, and currently my #1 module. So maybe don’t watch this video if you’re on a tight budget. Or… maybe watch it very carefully. Because you might just build the ultimate tiny case with it.
All you need is VHIKK and Pam Pro. Don’t forget power, but you won’t even need an output module. VHIKK X can run on USB power. Build a tiny wooden case. Maybe I will too.
We modular people are still a niche. A tiny community moving upstream and uphill — while the world flows downward. And it’s an honor to be part of it."
"Welcome to Bad Gear, the show about the world’s most-hated audio tools. Elektron sequencers are the prime excuse for aging synth hipsters with weird accents to completely neglect any attempt to get good at playing keyboards.
However, today we are going to talk about the 2013 Analog Keys and although it might be the only keyboard instrument from Elektron’s product portfolio history that doesn’t lead to immediate design-induced retina burn, the keys is NOT the problem here.

Here's to you my 'No talking demo' of the amazing NODAL RED 2X, a FREE software emulation of the Nord Lead/Rack 2X by "The Usual Suspects", which brings back to life this iconic synthesizer in all its red glory!
"The Usual Suspects" is a group of people who are currently Reverse Engineering and Emulating the Motorola DSP563xx series of DSP processors.
This DSP has been used in plenty of virtual analogue synthesizers and other musical gear that was released after around the mid 90s, such as Access Virus A, B, C, TI / Clavia Nord Lead 2X, 3, Modular / Waldorf Q, Microwave II / Novation Supernova, Nova and many others.
And now they released a must have from the 2000'...a Nord Lead/Rack 2X perfect emulation. This synthesizer uses two Motorola DSP56362 and the synthesis engine of NODAL RED 2X is identical to the Nord Lead 2x and it can also load Nord Lead 1 presets.
In this demo I will just let you hear what some amazing sound designers have made for this stunning plugin simply by scrolling and playing some beautiful sounds."
"I was building some sounds for the Arturia MicroFreak, testing a preset alongside the Roland TR-8, and, well, before I knew it, it kind of took on a life of its own.

"Need some silence? 😃 . At myVolts, we're not just trying to power your gear, we want to give you the best possible audio output too. . You may not realise it, but isolation of your power sources keeps your output clean and as you intended. . Have a listen (headphones recomended) to our two setups here, the first 30 seconds is USB powered from a standard AC power hub. It's not imposing itself on the sound, but if you listen to that silence at the start, you've got unwanted noise. 😢 . In the second setup, the noise just isn't there. The Silent Alchemist helped you avoid something you now won't need to clean up afterwards. . We're all about simplifying your process, with solutions that just work. . Setup info 1: 3 X USB Power ports used 1- Digitakt with 12V Step Up. 2-Korg Volca Drum 9V+ Step Up Our Crazychain CC47N1 converts polarity and tip size to power the Chase Bliss Onward pedal. 3-Standard USB-C cable takes 5V and Powers the Zoom L6.
Audio setup: Digitakt connected to Zoom L6 Volca Drum output sent through CB onward into Zoom L6.
Note: we would normally give a mixer/recorded it's own independent power source, this is probably the origin of the noise in the mix. However, with the Silent Alchemist, it's not a concern, isolation means no noise, even when sharing a power source.
Setup info 2: As above, regarding Audio. The power setup is slightly different, each device gets it's own USB-C power source, so four in total. . If you would like to examine these setups, the screenshots in the video are taken from PowerMyGear, our free web tool for planning your power setup. www.myvolts.com/powermygear
The silent Alchemist is on pre-sale now through our website
