Half-Time Techno w/ TR-808, TB-03, and OP-1 field | Lopho 2026-08-08 by atnr

video upload by atnr

"A half-time techno piece created with the TR-808 (MIDI modified), TB-03, and OP-1 field.

On the TR-808, the bass drum and snare are routed through separate outputs. The bass drum passes through the SANSAMP BASS DRIVER DI. The snare is processed through the NIGHTSKY with heavy reverb and filtering.

The master output is connected to the blueSky, allowing reverb to be applied to the overall drum mix.

On the OP-1 field, percussion sounds are glitched using a modulated delay created with the CWO effect.

On the TB-03, a bassline is looped while the filter is adjusted in real time.

The OP-1 field is used as the master clock. The TR-808 and TB-03 are synchronized via MIDI clock."

Moog Subsequent 37 | Synth Exploration & Raw Sequences [Synthesizer Demo]

video upload by Mr. Card Synths

"Moog Subsequent 37 | Synth Exploration & Raw Sequences [Synthesizer Demo] – a deep dive into the Moog Subsequent 37, exploring its raw analog character, driving sequences, and the massive low-end weight it’s known for. I’ve always loved taking this synth into rhythmic territory — gritty sequences, punchy basslines, evolving modulations, and aggressive tones that cut through a mix. The Subsequent 37 is perfect for this: hands-on sequencer, deep modulation routing, rich Moog filter, and a multidrive section that adds serious bite. In this exploration, you'll hear the pure, untamed power of the Subsequent 37 in action.

Doctor Mix C-64 Synth Series

video uploads by Doctor Mix

"👉 🔥 PLAY MY C64 SYNTHESIZER — FREE, IN YOUR BROWSER: https://doctormix.com/doctormix64 🔥 👈 This is the one. My Commodore 64 synthesizer is FINALLY finished — and it came out better than I imagined. 🎹"

"Sam from Look Mum No Computer built me the control panel, but I'd been keeping it in an ugly functional box that was destroying the look of the C64. So in this episode I build it a proper detachable enclosure from scratch — measuring, cutting, gluing, a LOT of sparks, and one or two moments where I call myself an idiot on camera. 🔥

Then the good part. SID chip number one was completely dead — so I repaired it. Which means there are now TWO vintage SID chips running at the same time, one hard left, one hard right. That's not a stereo effect. That's two synthesizers playing together. 🎚️

And somewhere along the way I fell down the electronics rabbit hole — learning the oscilloscope, building my own MIDI tester out of a £12 screen and a microcontroller, and using AI to modify the firmware so the C64 screen now says DOCTOR MIX instead of Cynthcart. Being able to dominate your own electronics is MASSIVE.

Oh — and I built a virtual version of the whole thing that you can play in your browser for free. It's very beta, almost alpha, but it's real and it's yours. Link at the top ⬆️"

Distinctive Blue – Original 80s Synth-Pop Instrumental

video upload by Ian Dixon

"Distinctive Blue is an original 80s-inspired synth-pop instrumental built around driving bass, bright digital textures, layered synths and the polished electronic sound of the mid-1980s.

The track was created using a mixture of vintage and new synthesizers, combining vintage-inspired sounds, rhythmic sequences, atmospheric pads and melodic synth lines.

For this video, I wanted to show the actual instruments behind the music coming alive as the arrangement develops — from the first synth parts through to the full final mix.

🎹 Written, performed and produced by Ian Dixon.

Let me know in the comments what Distinctive Blue reminds you of and which synth sound stands out most.

ECHOA STEREO DUAL DELAY AND REVERB PROCESSOR

Four delay lines total — two per stereo channel. Morph delay into reverb from first principles, from clean digital delay to smeared, textured reflections. Route the four lines in series, parallel, isolation, or spectrally. Presets, parameter lock on every pot, character engines, and more.

TIME
Delay time from 1 ms to 16 seconds, up to four taps per delay line, configurable for your sound design. Feedback up to and past unity, and a dry/wet mix per channel. Freeze delay buffers, set tempo with tap on the line buttons, or patch a clock and lock each line to a musical division. Linear or logarithmic time taper options: a full featured, clean delay line.

SPACE
Bend echoes into reverb. Diffusion sweeps a four-stage Schroeder all-pass network from discrete repeats to a wash. Bloom grows short, fixed loops into long modulated plate and hall tails. Damping is bipolar from noon — counter-clockwise darkens the tail, clockwise thins and brightens it.

ENGINE
Degrade each line's voice across with four engines — digital, BBD, tape, vinyl. Saturation, bandwidth limiting, compander, wow and flutter, hiss, crackle, digital glitches. Depth scales from bit-pristine bypass, to a gentle touch of character, to destruction.

CONFIGURABLE FOR PERFORMANCE ROUTING
Parallel, series, mono, or spectral delay-line topologies.

CV MAPPING
Per-CV destination, with attenuverters on every input.

via Synthesizers.com

"This is Synthesizers.com's first new module in two years, and we're excited to share it with you: the Q210 Complex Noise.

The Q210 Complex Noise is noisemaker's playground. Though capable of standard white noise fare, the Q210 can help provide you with decidedly boundary pushing timbres, not usually found in your typical 5U module.

Beyond noise, the Q210 is also comfortable generating random gates, which when routed to VCAS or drum sounds, can help launch your next ambient composition into science fiction territory.

Depending on how you approach the module, the Q210 can be a tame texture ready to mix in with a completed track. However if you push it, the Q210 can become the basis of an entire soundscape, especially when paired with filters, VCAS, and envelopes. Sounds both dramatic and explosive are quite easy to conjure."

Ethereal ambient calm | live looping with the Stylosette Keys

video upload by vekoni and Stylophone

"Relax with this soothing, calming ambient track. Live performed simple looping with the almighty Loopy Pro and a bunch of beautiful effects.

Disclaimer: Stylophone sent this product free of charge; I wasn’t paid, and they had no input on the content.

I loved the Stylosette immediately after trying it. It looks like a toy, but the sound is fantastic, and the octave shift and adjustable vibrato makes it more capable than I thought it would be (I didn't even try the built in delay this time, but it also sounds great and can do self-oscillating madness as well).

Most people use the Stylosette through fruits, and other food like sushi and cheese (genius haha), which I might try next time, but I only wanted something simple and conductive for the octave key to play the high-pitched melody after the base loops were layered... so I used a Japanese knife. Mostly because it looks great and sits stable on the table (cutting edge idea...).

Now the usual geeky stuff:

Signal chain:
→ Stylophone Stylosette Keys through a TRS to RCA cable and a stereo to mono adapter
→ IK Multimedia iRig USB
→ iPhone with Loopy Pro as host

Introducing Xaoc Devices Skopje 1988 Dual Quantizer

video upload by Xaoc Devices

You can find additional posts featuring Skopje here.

"Skopje is a compact (6HP) dual quantizer with two independent channels. Thanks to clever features coupled with high-precision A/D and D/A converters it can be a complex (though extremely easy to use) compositional tool suitable for all kinds of musical outcomes. The user interface is similar to Zadar with frontpanel labels clearly indicating the features available for adjustment. No menu diving as the small OLED display is only used for selecting banks and scales. Each channel is able to quantize its input to a different scale from a different bank (up to 100 banks each containing up to a 100 scales). Skopje stores its data on a regular microSD card. The module supports its own very simple scale format (a straghtforward TXT file), as well as the popular SCALA format. You can mix and match different scale format files in one bank. Various tuning systems and description formats supported, including many microtonal options. The Xaoc Devices scale programming system includes additional features, e.g., various voltage limiting settings.

Another notable feature is Skopje's ability to calibrate any of its channels to a particular VCO for perfect tracking. Other features include: glide, scale switching via triggers or CV, and transposition (including unquantized for vibrato).

Turismo - Electro

video upload by ALM TV

"「 Turismo Electro 」🐠 Jamming a full electro track using the Turismo, with beats, bass, a lead voice, chords, sequencing, modulation and FX all produced from directly within the system. 🌊

Starting with a beat from the Squid, the TAZM-O is mixed in followed with dynamic through-zero FM from a self oscillating filter of the MCFx2. Additional drum sounds are brought in via the mutes of the ASQ-1. A bass sequence is then added, also produced by the TAZM-O using one of its 2 sub oscillator outs filtered and triggered to alternate with the lead voice. The result is effectively 2 voices using only 1 oscillator. Finally, a vocal like chord sequence from the CIZZLE is mixed in, with both its pitch and inversion sequenced to create ‘arpeggiator’ style stepping from both oscillators. The reverb time of the MFX is increased as the elements are mixed out to conclude the track.

The Turismo is our fully modern Eurorack modular workstation, blending a curated mix of our flagship analog and digital modules for a versatile and creative patching experience. It offers a distinctive ALM character, designed for both precision and fun. 🚘"

LF-AMP introduction

video upload by Kanawha Music

Well, that's refreshing.

"A tongue in cheek introduction to what's otherwise a rather boring module."

via Kanawha Music

"The LF-AMP module combines two modules in one chassis:

First, on the left, is a precision triangle wave LFO, featuring:

Two pairs of outputs, each with its own amplitude control ('amount' as most would call it);
Direct and Inverted outputs in each pair;
A precision BIAS control for each output which determines the center of the voltage swing;
HI/LO range for rate, for a total range of about 20Hz down to about 1 cycle every minute.
Easy to see rate indicator LEDs showing the positive or negative swing of the output.

Second, on the right, is a high gain utility amplifier for headphones or line level sources, featuring:
Stereo inputs and outputs, with Normalled output for two individual outputs, or signals combined into one stereo jack ('2/MIX')

A bit more about the rationale...this module was designed for use with our Stereo Ensemble instruments. We needed a specialized LFO for our phaser modules, and an amp for final output, so they were combined into single unit. It's the peanut butter and anchovies of the modular world! The LFO output can be reduced down to a very tiny voltage swing, and then precisely located to work with devices needing those conditions...but it can also be used to give an exact range to a VCO, or an exact amount of depth to a VCA, etc. And since there's an inverted version of each output, two of something can work inthe exact opposite direction if desired. There isn't much to say about the amp; it's just a high quality amp for headphones which works to drive line level sources as well, using the LM4580 amplifier chip."

Backrooms - 'People in San Jose' (Synth Cover) [Prophet rev2 + Korg MS-20]

video upload by Ross Piano

"Another one of my favourite cues from the Backrooms score. As I recall, this piece accompanies a montage of establishing shots of San Jose, early in the first act. The piece is in G minor and is built around 2 different ostinatos. Both ostinatos have chromatic notes that create a sharper and more mysterious atmosphere. The first (0:00) features both the natural and raised third (Bb and B natural). The second (0:23) features the raised 6th (E natural), transforming G minor into G dorian. However, the minor 6th (E flat) appears in the melody (at 0:45) creating a contradiction between these two layers. This ‘contradiction’ creates interest and tension.

This arrangement had too many separate layers to feature them all on screen simultaneously. For this reason, the individual screens cut between various sounds/patches.

In addition to all the parts you see on screen, I recorded some ambient drones. I decided not to film these, as the screen would become crowded with shots of me holding down a single note haha.

All these sounds are designed from scratch on analog synthesizers (a Prophet rev2 and a Korg MS-20). I mix in Ableton, where I add additional effects (reverb, distortion, delays etc.). In this case, most of the effects were from Soundtoys.

AC NOISES CONTINUA: A New Band Member

video upload by keinseier

"Sometimes a device that gives back comes along. One that acts like a band member, with its own ideas and fresh input.
This is one of those. But you still get to tell this band member what to do, if you like.
There is a great potential for sound design and sparks for new ideas right beneath the surface. Awesome."



CONTINUA is a stereo dynamic sampler and multi-effect that doesn’t just play your sound back: it listens to how you play and reacts in real time, capturing, shaping and transforming your repeats through a wide range of controls including mix, tempo (TAP function included), pitch, sustain, freeze, glitch, dimension, lo-fi, downsampling, reverb, smear and filter.

In the meantime, your dry signal can remain completely untouched or be routed through the multi-effect section for further processing.

Born from the collaboration between AC noises and Andrea Degli Esposti from BunkerNoise, CONTINUA is designed for deep and hands-on interaction. It gives you access to both primary and secondary parameters, allowing you to sculpt your sound with precision. Shape its response by adjusting in-fx, sensibility, threshold, attack, release and stereo spread, or dive into effect-specific controls like lo-fi modulation, reverb decay and more.

Decide whether your repeats move forward or in reverse, and whether they emerge in full or dissolve into ghostly tails. Also, when things need to break apart, unleash pure chaos with the momentary tilt function.

CONTINUA offers two onboard presets, full MIDI implementation with input and output (mini-jack) and a USB-C connection for MIDI integration and firmware updates.

Routing options include:

Mono Input → Mono Output
Mono Input → Stereo Output
Stereo Input → Stereo Output
It also features selectable buffered (which can be set in tail or hard bypass mode) or true bypass.

Power: 9v center negative

Current draw: ~ 250mA"
