"Meet DVNA, a compact chord & texture synthesizer from Doboz."

Prologue to DVNAvideo upload by Doboz



DVNA walkthrough

video upload by Doboz

"DVNA is a compact synthesizer built for creating rich harmonic textures with minimal effort. Play a single key and get a chord, or intervals of your choice across its four oscillators... monophonic input, polyphonic results.

A built-in note quantizer locks your pitch to any of 25 scales, while the tuning modes let you dial in everything from fixed chord voicings to free microtonal tuning. Oscillator mixing and stereo panning are controlled through morphing systems, so a single knob sweep transforms your entire mix at once. The signal then flows through a stereo multi-mode filter, overdrive, and a choice of reverb or delays.

The 12-key capacitive keyboard responds to finger contact area, generating a continuous pressure signal that can be routed throughout the instrument. DVNA also accepts MIDI over TRS, syncs to MIDI clock, and responds to MIDI CC for external control. 128 presets capture all parameters, keeping your favorite patches ready to recall instantly."

One Synth, One Track - Waldorf Protein

video upload by GEOSynths

"As there are quite a lot of Reviews for the Waldorf Protein out there, I decided to make a complete Track, only using the Protein. I'd made a few Patches when I first got it and while it is very well thought out, I decided to make an Editor using Google Gemini to help with my workflow. It doesn't cover all Parameters, as it uses CC's which are limited to 128, some of which are reserved.

First thing I did was to make the Drum Sounds and then Sample them into Native Instruments Maschine and made a Kit (Which will be available on my Patreon for download) and then I put them through Logic Pro, I use Maschine as a Sound Module in Logic, so I can still change MIDI notes and route each sound to a dedicated fader.

Next, I tracked each Sound, all of which are Custom made and use the internal FX of the Protein. In the mix I added a touch of Room Reverb for the Drums and the Lead has some extra Delay, everything else is from the Protein."

Voltage Starved Compression Goodness with Hungry Thumb

video upload by Robots Are Red and Hive Mind Synthesis

"Hungry Thumb, by Modular 4 the Masses.

This is an 8-10hp Voltage Starved Compressor module with additional side chain and EQ.

Thank you to Modular 4 the Masses for providing the module for this video."

00:00 - Intro
00:45 - Demo with Kick only
06:58 - Full Drums
09:14 - Plucky Voice
12:00 - Full Mix

HungryThumb is a Eurorack adaptation of a compressor named Engineer's Thumb, typically built as a guitar effect pedal. Juanito built an Engineer's Thumb early in the tin can synth journey, naively replicating the 9V core of the circuit, and then didn't really know what to do with it.

Until they put an 808 kick drum through it. As a kick drum processor, this compressor shines brightly, especially when the Starve settings reduces the core circuitry voltage to 9V and lower. You can get even the purest 808-style kick drum signal, which will be mostly a sine wave, to crunch, clip, gate, fizz and fold. Do you need hardstyle kicks in your modular? This can get you there.

The Engineer's Thumb this circuit is based on uses an LM13700 OTA chip as the adjustable gain portion. These chips are a bit noisy, so an innovation of Engineer's Thumb was to put the gain section in an op amp inverting feedback loop, meaning while the compressor is set to its highest gain, the OTA is set to its lowest gain, and will theoretically be creating less noise. The theory checks out, but I'm not sure how much we Eurorack people care about noise floor.

Bitweaver demo: fully analog per-bit modulation

video upload by Finegear

"Bitweaver is an 8-bit fully analog bit-crusher that sounds warm, squelchy, fuzzy, and rich. One reason is in the circuit: its ADC and DAC are built from discrete op-amps, transistors, resistors and capacitors, and the inherent imperfections of converting and reconstructing the audio signal add a squelchy character to the sound. Another source of this machine's distinctive sound texture is that Bitweaver computes bits continuously, with no sampling clock, flipping whenever the signal crosses a threshold.

Each of the 8 bits is then yours to play with, from the Most to the Least important: turn it on or off, invert it, replace it with a CV signal, or override it with the value of another bit. All bit manipulations stay harmonically related to the incoming signal, expressing the unit’s wave-shaping abilities.

From sub-audio tremolo to classic bit-crusher grit, three distinct sonic territories open up depending on where you place the sample-and-hold stage (an analog take on sample rate reduction): before the bit engine, after it, or bypassed entirely.

Bitweaver invites producers, performers, artists and musicians to a new kind of analog destruction: harmonically rich, voltage-controllable down to the single bit, and ready to meet you from the desktop or the eurorack.

For this first video-demo, we are showing Bitweaver in a playground of noisy beats. A drum-machine is sent to the Bitweaver, which comes to “crush” the mix into a warm sauce on one of the sends, sometimes joined by an extra fuzz pedal before it. (For those of you who heard it at Superbooth first, please enjoy the …clean sound!)"

Eternal Research Demon Box
Summon the sounds of electromagnetic oddities with Demon Box from Eternal Research, an innovative instrument that condenses the practice of using EMF for audio and control signals in a unified device. At the top surface of the Demon Box's triangular enclosure, a literal platform for audio experimentation awaits. Here, three channels of EMF inductor pickups are arranged in a nested spiral formation, which can be used to create unique tones and control signals by interacting with any object that produces EMF near the inductors. Power tools, FM radios, eBows, tuning forks, and other personal electronics become diverse sources for synthesizing tones, controlling modular synths, and even producing MIDI signals. Turning the inaudible waves of ambient and ubiquitous electro-ephemera into creative signal sources, the Demon Box offers a deep well of musical meaning-making waiting to be discovered.

Bionic Lester MK1.5 : the Black Patchings

video upload by Robotopsy Robotopsy

"Short Audio Demo of the Bionic Lester MK1.5

Slightly Inspired by the Black Paintings of GOYA (nothing to do with this level)

Except for the first patch that contains sounds of Kicks
made with the Slew section of the King Slender
Every sound and samples involve the Bionic Lester MK1.5
Samples are all from feedback sessions
the Bionic Lester MK1.5 is such a playground!!!
Hope this short audio demo will please you"

Side note: I beleive the first mention of the Bionic Lester 1.5 was back in November.

Some additional details:

"This module is a special rerelease of the 'Mark 1' Bionic Lester circuit with the unreleased 'Mark 2' control layout. The Bionic Lester Mark 1 was first released in 2012, and only had one production run. It uses a rare switched-capacitor filter IC with multiple outputs and four operating modes. The character of the overdrive changes with each mode selection and all are distinctive.

DIFFERENCES FROM THE ORIGINAL MODULE:

Reverse power protection
Metal shaft pots, long life
this time ALL of the knobs are MK2 style
Resistor network and opamp package substitutions for compact PCB layout and greater manufacturability
Output mixer and A/B crossfader. A feature from the planned but never designed “Aggro Eddie” expander. Enables more elaborate feedback and overdrive patches.
Features:

Dual 12dB multimode filter
Based around rare and vintage switched capacitor filter IC
Rerelease of Bionic Lester MK1 circuit with MK2 interface and integrated Aggro Eddie mixer expander
Dual CV inputs for filter cutoff of each filter

Additive Drawbar - A Wavetable for Plinky

video upload by Nathan Plante Synths

"This is the Additive Drawbar wavetable for Plinky. I give you a quick tour of the wavetable plus a few sound design ideas.

@MakingSoundMachines writes: This set was generated with an additive generator. Think of it working like a drawbar organ, in that it lets you set an individual volume for each overtone / harmonic. In this set, the waves resemble organ tones, each with an individual mix of overtones. In higher registers, this bank has an organ sound to it.

Sounds from Superbooth 2026: Mordax Siren⁠

video upload by Perfect Circuit

Mordax at Perfect Circuit


"Siren from Mordax and Anonymous Developer is a multi-oscillator drone generator module that delivers complex and compelling tones in a compact package. Outfitted with finger-friendly faders and optimized for performance, Siren offers macro controls which simplify the task of wrangling its massive set of sound generators. Twenty-one oscillators and twenty-three LFOs provide a rich landscape of waves to mix and mangle. Adjust pitch, waveform shape, and amplitude via manual control or CV, and enjoy the evolving textures Siren creates.

Siren is built on a digital core which prioritizes responsiveness and immediacy in addressing its deep sound processing capabilities. Digital artifacts can be welcomed in with open arms at the far ends of Siren's parametric range, inviting sizzling timbral interventions from aliasing and quantization. CV modulation has similarly embraced its digital soul, with no filtering applied for immediate connection and response to incoming signals. Tonalities are organized in whole-number, just intonation ratios, with every voice tightly harmonized with its fundamental pitch, producing a lovely and resonant tonal structure which often diverges from the typical and equal-tempered. Whether you're adding texture and movement in the background of a patch or diving deep into a well of uncanny drone, Siren from Mordax is sure to call you nearer with every patching session.

Siren Features

Digital drone oscillator tuned in just intonation

21 VCOs and 23 LFOs provide an ultra-rich sound engine to manipulate

Streamlined macro controls optimized for intuitive performance

Waveforms not anti-aliased to embrace digital artifacts

CV inputs unfiltered for unique responsiveness and immediacy

Sequential Prophet 5 - Synth Plugins still can’t do this?

video upload by Tenalock Audio

"There's something about the Sequential Prophet-5 that feels alive. The slight movement in the oscillators, the warmth in the chords, the way even simple patches seem to carry emotion without needing much processing.

Plugins have come so far and modern analog synthesizers have gone backwards without so much of their own character as they used to have.

I spent some time exploring softer pads, worn-out bass tones, drifting analog textures and a few more cinematic sounds in this session. Some patches lean into that classic late-70s / early-80s character, while others feel surprisingly modern.

It's easy to understand why the Prophet-5 became such an important synthesizer. A lot of newer synths can sound bigger or cleaner, but this has a character that sits differently in a mix.

Headphones recommended for this one."

New Polyend Drums Analog / Digital Drum Machine Incoming

video upload by Polyend

"Drums is an analog and digital drum machine built for immediacy, depth, and performance."

Features.

Analog voices.
Four analog voices built on modern SSI chips create a dense, classic tone with modern flexibility. Each stacks dual analog VCOs, a dedicated noise source, and additional digital oscillator for hybrid layering or precise FM modulation. Each shaped through a multimode analog filter and VCA, giving you everything from tight percussion to evolving synth textures.

Instruments.
Multiple analog and digital synthesis methods, sample-based instruments, and eight independent LFOs give you the core tools for creating and modulating drum sounds. With over forty instruments, each containing its own sub-mode mutations, you get hundreds of options to choose from.

Live performance.
Drums is designed for real-time control. Use the X0Y fader to morph kits, trigger fills instantly, and switch between patterns or sound kits without stopping playback. Key parameters stay close, so changes can be made while the pattern is running.

Effects.
Drums includes three dedicated effects groups. Send effects for shared processing. Insert effects for individual tracks. A master chain for the final mix. Inserts can be sequenced per track, so effects become part of the rhythm rather than something added at the end.

Power
The device runs on a dual-core main CPU, with auxiliary processors handling peripherals and analog control. Internal audio processing is done in 32-bit floating point at 96kHz, with 24-bit/96 kHz DAC and ADC conversion for audio input and output.

Ins & Outs.
2 × 1/4” audio out jacks
8 × 1/4” individual track output jacks
1 × 1/4” stereo headphone jack
2 × 1/4” audio in jacks

1 x 1/8” MIDI In jack
