Genki KATLA - THE VOLCANO SYNTH!! Now Available

video upload by Starsky Carr

"What happens when a synthesizer completely breaks the rules?
In this video, we explore the Genki KATLA — a truly unique polysynth inspired by Icelandic volcanoes, featuring a rotating voice architecture, hybrid signal path, and some of the most unpredictable sound design possibilities I’ve come across.

This isn’t your typical analog polysynth. Each of the five voices can run independently with different waveforms, octaves, and modulation — creating evolving textures, harmonic movement, and generative-style sounds that feel closer to modular synthesis than traditional keyboards.

🎛️ What makes the KATLA special?
• Rotating voice polyphony (round robin-style synthesis)
• Independent per-voice oscillators & tuning
• Digital oscillators + analog filter signal path
• Looping envelopes reaching audio-rate modulation
• Phase distortion, wavefolding & multiple distortion types
• Tape-style wow, flutter & pitch instability effects
• Stereo voice movement & evolving spatial modulation
• External inputs for processing other gear

From lush ambient pads to aggressive, evolving sequences — this synth can go places most instruments simply can’t. It’s not about recreating vintage sounds… it’s about discovering entirely new ones.

💸 At around €5000, this is definitely not a beginner synth — but for sound designers, and anyone looking for something truly different, it well worth a look."

"Hey guys! Very very excited to be presenting the Genki Katla to you all... I am truly in awe of the sound of this very unique and powerful instrument.

I thought the best way to get to know the synth is to start from scratch so in this video we'll go full hands-on with the Genki Katla, exploring (almost) every parameter and building sounds from an initialized patch.

From some raw drone layers and gritty textures to evolving pads, rhythmic sequences, and atmospheric beds, we will see just what this instrument can do, discover new sounds, and maybe make some friends along the way 🙏

If you're into sound design, unique synths, or just love discovering new instruments, this one is for you!

HUGE thanks to Genki for letting me a part of this with them and showing off this super cool synth.

No money was paid, no agreements were made... these are my real thoughts on this very premium synthesizer and I will be sharing lots more."

Press release follows:


Genki Instruments announces availability of Katla as Voice Rotating Polyphonic Synthesizer inspired by its natural namesake

REYKJAVIK, ICELAND: having twice blown European musical minds thanks to show-stealing showcases at SUPERBOOTH25, May 8-10, Berlin, Germany and Machina Bristronica 2025, September 27-28, Bristol, UK, before adventuring across the pond for a repeat performance at Buchla & Friends 2026, January 24-25, LA, CA, USA, Reykjavik-based instrument developer Genki Instruments is proud to announce availability of the eagerly-awaited Katla as a Voice Rotating Polyphonic Synthesizer inspired by Iceland’s largest subglacial volcano as its natural namesake — readily representing the company’s first foray into analogue synthesis, albeit one that uniquely utilises a set of wildcard parameters to infuse it with organic, unpredictable behaviour as an instrument that is worthy of that legacy, excelling at generating rich, evolving, multi-layered textures, where each note stirs, swells, and erupts in its own distinct way — as of March 31…

Clearly Katla’s inspiration runs through its ‘volcanic’ veins. After all, it is framed by side panels and knobs forged from authentic Icelandic lava, giving each instrument a tangible connection to the volcanic forces that inspired it. That this synth should surely roar is a given. Genki Instruments inevitably chose, therefore, to kit Katla out with four independent distortion destinations, the most unruly of which is a stereo CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) Drive effect — a characterful saturation stage, pushing tones from warm and rounded to fractured and snarling.

Press release follows:


Cherry Audio Launches Crumar DS-2 Synthesizer

Based on the original 1978 hardware, this value-packed emulation revives the digital control and analog soul of an often forgotten landmark in synth history.

(March 31) Cherry Audio is excited to announce the release of the Crumar DS-2 synthesizer, a virtual instrument that faithfully replicates and significantly enhances the original 1978 hardware synth that was ahead of its time. This release marks the latest collaboration with Crumar Instruments, following last year’s acclaimed Spirit synthesizer, revisiting a groundbreaking Italian synth and infusing it with Cherry Audio’s signature style.

Crumar DS-2 by Cherry Audio is available now for only $59 at cherryaudio.com and through authorized resellers, bringing its rare and legendary “vintage digital” sound to the modern production environment at an exceptionally low price.

The Crumar DS-2 was a unique synthesizer that combined a monophonic Synth engine alongside a fully paraphonic Poly section. The “DS” in its name stood for “Digital Synthesizer,” and it featured two Digitally Controlled Oscillators (DCOs) designed to prevent tuning drift. However, the resulting waveforms were completely stair-stepped, giving the instrument a gritty character and wild harmonics. Together, the two sections provided the DS-2 with a distinct sound that set it apart from both early digital synthesizers and classic analog models.

Building upon the foundation of the vintage hardware, Cherry Audio’s virtual Crumar DS-2 introduces several powerful modern enhancements to expand its creative potential. The monophonic Synth section now includes unison and multi-voice modes, providing panning and tuning options, as well as polyphonic functionality with 4, 8, or 16 voices. The Poly section supports full 32-note polyphony, and DS-2 now features a keyboard split mode in addition to the layered mode.

The Synth section now includes a stair-stepped sine waveform option, and oscillator sync has been added. A third LFO has been introduced, and LFO options now include discrete delays, sync, retrigger, reverse wave, and one-shot capabilities. The five-part LFO Mixer, previously hardwired to specific destinations, now offers six assignable destinations with 33 options each, providing unparalleled modulation flexibility.

The envelopes have been enhanced with an initial delay stage (DADSR) and velocity sensitivity, and now include looping functionality. Additionally, the Poly section now features VCA release control, making it better suited to powerful string-synth sonics. Touch control has been added with four slots and simple click-to-assign functionality, supporting both channel and polyphonic aftertouch with compatible MIDI controllers.

The VCF has been upgraded to include a 12dB 2-pole in addition to the original 24dB 4-pole option, along with polarity and key-follow adjustments. Other enhancements include an assignable bend range, a dedicated mod wheel, and a dynamic arpeggiator that can be applied to either or both sections. DS-2 also offers three customizable effects chains with 20 studio-quality effects, allowing users to arrange, save, and recall their settings. Over 300 professionally designed presets are organized into 14 categories to inspire instant creativity.

Cherry Audio is also offering the Deep Space Preset Pack for DS-2 for only $9.99. This pack includes an extra 100 presets that provide an in-depth exploration of DS-2's sophisticated modulation routing, expressive performance features, layers and splits, arpeggiator, and studio-quality effects.

Crumar DS-2 reflects Cherry Audio’s ongoing dedication to delivering high-quality sound at an unbeatable price, even in uncertain times. Priced at just $59, the DS-2 is an ideal choice for synth enthusiasts who value both exceptional tone and affordability. Furthermore, until April 13th, producers can purchase the Crumar DS-2 as part of Cherry Audio’s “Build Your Own Bundle” options. Customers can select a Pick 3 bundle for $99 (regularly $119) or a Pick 6 bundle for only $149 (regularly $169), allowing you to mix and match any of their award-winning instruments for as little as $25 per plugin.

Cherry Audio’s Crumar DS-2 synthesizer is available for macOS (10.13 or later) and Windows (7 or later) in AU, VST, VST3, AAX, and standalone formats. A free 30-day demo is available. Visit cherryaudio.com for additional product details, a deep-dive introductory video, system requirements, and an extensive collection of awe-inspiring sound demos.

A Tiny Techno Modular using Disting NT: Suggested Systems 9

video upload by mylarmelodies

"The good folks behind Expert Sleepers hired me to make a video showing the Disting NT doing something interesting - but what that was, was up to me. I figured the NT should be able to power an entire small live system, replacing a boatload of modules in one. And I thought about how James Holden blends computers & analogue filters in his work. And so I built a live system that does just that. Here's it working, how it works, the challenges I had, and the solutions. NOTE: YOU CAN DOWNLOAD THIS DISTING NT PATCH BELOW FOR FREE"

Roland SH-1 Monosynth & RS-202 String Synth

video upload by DreamsOfWires

"Simple melodic ditty. just dusting off some oldies. SH-1 sequenced by a Korg SQ-1 in random mode. Initial drone sound is SH-1 (overdubbed), then following drone is from a sustained note on the RS-202 using the Vintage Synth Automatic Key Sustainer (electricians tape). Some verb in the mix, and delay on the SH-1.

I love vintage analogue synths, they often have a lot of character, but they also have their practical drawbacks, such as maintenance! My SH-1's sliders need some love, but the keyboard tracking's gone haywire (or should that be J-wire?) and the unfortunately named 'Bender' has transformed itself into a 'random source of uncertainty''... or a garbled note generator.

The RS-202 is working well though... so far, but changes in circumstances mean it's probably destined for the great online auction in the sky... or 'cloud'... whatever. It's a lovely-sounding thing, but like most vintage string synths, it's huge and doesn't do a lot. But, what it does do, it does well, and that chorus... Roland have a great lineage there.

"We say...
A pre-owned Elektron Digitone MKII in excellent condition. It comes with all original packaging and accessories.

Manufacturer's description
Step into a new realm of sound with the Digitone II, an evolution of Elektron’s original FM synthesiser, now offering expanded polyphony and enhanced creative control. With 16 tracks (versus the original’s 8) and a flexible 16-voice polyphony, you can unleash complex soundscapes across synth or MIDI tracks. Digitone II introduces four selectable synth machines (Wavetone, Swarmer, FM Tone, and FM Drum) and six dynamic filter machines, providing far more sonic variety than its predecessor. The improved 128-step sequencer, along with Euclidean sequencing and advanced modulation options, invites you to explore limitless creative possibilities. Packed with powerful effects, deeper sound-shaping tools, and a modular workflow.

Expanded Polyphony and Synth Machines:
While the original Digitone offered 8 voices and 4 synth tracks, the Digitone II doubles the polyphony to 16 voices and expands the tracks to 16, allowing for far more layered compositions. In addition, the four new synthesis machines (Wavetone, Swarmer, FM Tone, FM Drum) go beyond standard FM synthesis, offering greater creative potential for crafting rich melodic, rhythmic, and percussive sounds.

Enhanced Sequencing and Performance Features:
Digitone II features a 128-step sequencer—twice the length of the original Digitone's—enabling more complex patterns and compositions. The addition of Euclidean mode per track offers a fresh approach to sequencing, making it easier to generate evolving rhythms. With individual pattern length, time scale multipliers, and enhanced trig conditions, the Digitone II’s sequencing features are a leap forward from the original, giving you deeper control over your compositions.

Advanced Modulation and Effects:
The Digitone II builds on its predecessor’s modulation and effects capabilities, with three assignable LFOs per voice (up from two in the original) and added effects like digital overdrive, bit reduction, and sample rate reduction per voice. The inclusion of master effects like the stereo compressor and overdrive means you can fine-tune your final mix, while send effects like Saturator Delay and Supervoid Reverb add depth and dimension to your sounds."

"Akai's MPC Sample is a portable chopping machine that is ready to go whenever a moment of inspiration strikes or as your lightweight companion through a day of slow-moving errands. Styled after their beloved MPC60, this beige beauty gives nostalgia and function in a battery-powered package. To ensure the size and ease-of-use remains paramount, the MPC Sample has a stripped down OS and micro pads but don't let the size fool you: this is an MPC through-and-through.

Whether using the built-in microphone, the stereo 1/4" jacks, or USB audio, you get quick access to the Sample Record section that is as easy as pressing a pad. A few quick trims using the multifunction knobs or using the shift and main encoder in combination will have you chopping and trimming in no time. Once you have your samples loaded, chopped, and assigned, recording a sequence is just as easy: just set the mode to Seq, adjust settings to taste, press the pad you want to record to, and you've got a loop. Resample that loop for further processing, use the step edit mode to make micro adjustments, and precompose a few sequences to switch between for full track performances.

The MPC Sample lets you engage effects in two different ways: the Knob FX and Pad FX. As their names portend, the Knob FX gives you access to a gang of effects including delays and reverbs, amp simulations, modulation effects, and vintage emulators. These effects are controlled with the three multifunction knobs for excellent playability. The Pad FX, on the other hand, are 16 always available effects that get triggered momentarily by the pads and are expressed via velocity. This is where you can get a stutter effect, several coloration effects, a half-speed effect, and other performable, musical delights. A fantastic choice for newcomers and veterans alike, the MPC Sample from Akai is a powerful tool for studio or stage that complements just about any other piece of equipment in your audio arsenal.

Alisa 1377 (1985) - Ambient Sound Demo

video upload by LFOstore

"#alisa #1377 #alisa1377 #synth #demo
Rare USSR synthesizer restored by Alex Taber!

It was made in USSR in 1985 at Luberetskiy Military Radioplant 'Rodina' near Moscow.

ALISA synthesizers were made especially for experimental electronic music, creating of sound effects in soviet cinema and scientific acoustic researches. This unique instrument has warm, aggressive and absolutely original analog sound!

The synthesizer has 1 OSC with 4 wave forms, ADSR , filter, various modulations, vibrato and portamento effects.

OSCILLATOR: tune; octave +1/+2; portamento; wave forms: triangle, saw, square, odd harmonics; frequency modulation (for all 4 waveforms); impulse-width modulation (for square wave form) with impulse width and depth controls; harmonics (for odd harmonics wave form). You can use individual OSC waveforms (triangle, saw, square, odd harmonics) or mix them together to get unique sounds!

LFO: on/off modulation switch, two waveforms (triangle, square), modulation rate, modulation rate coarse switch - 1Hz/10Hz.

FILTER: cutoff, resonance, vibrato (filter modulation), ADSR, switch between filter control- keyboard or contour OSC (ADSR). The synths filter due to it`s original architecture can be used as additional oscillator when filter`s resonance knob in self-oscillaltion position and it sounds really weird and interesting!

AMPLIFIER: ADSR, main volume, on/off synthesizer."

It's Only Noise - Random Percussion with Sample & Hold, No Sequencer...just for fun #eurorack

video upload by AJH Synth Official

"Messing about with noise and random voltages. This patch is just various noise sources through various filters, frequency-modulated by sample & hold, with envelopes controlling amplitude (VCA) or affecting filter frequency. No sequencer was harmed in the making of this video.

The ‪@solidstatelogic‬ BigSix is used to mix all 4 sounds, with the ‪@vermonagear‬ DSR-3 providing stereo spring reverb for the drone and occasional sound.

Video & performance by ‪@DreamsOfWires‬

Patch Breakdown:

Drone: This is just pink noise going into the FIXED FILTER BANK 914, but with an LFO from the DUAL RVG modulating the mix between the left and right bands of the Filter Bank, creating that slow, breathing effect. The AJH SYNTH 914 has built-in, voltage-controllable mixing/cross-fading functionality, which wasn't present in the original Moog 914 on which it is closely based.

Percussion 1: White noise going to the SONIC XV Diode Ladder Filter, using its band pass output. One channel of the DUAL RVG is sending random voltages to the Sonic's Filter Frequency/Cutoff, whilst a DH-ADSR envelope generator controls its audio level in the TRIPLE CROSS (being used as a triple VCA).

Percussion 2: This starts with noise generated by the LUNAR MODULE - this has 2 noise sources with different character and tone control, and built-in distortion. Its output goes to the MATRIX VCF, which has 16 different filter modes, which I cycle through manually during the video. See out User Guide video for more information: • NEW MODULE! MATRIX VCF User Guide - Vintag...

Occasional Sound: Here I'm using the SAMPLE & HOLD module to randomly trigger the MULTI BURST ENVELOPS module. The Colour control on the Sample & Hold determines the range of random voltages generated. It is a combination of Low Pass and High Pass filter over the onboard noise that is used to derive the voltages, so turning it anti-clockwise from the centre acts as a low pass filter, reducing voltages produced to be in the lower range, whereas turning it clockwise of the centre position acts as a high pass filter, meaning voltages in the higher range. Since it is generating lower voltages here, it is only occasionally producing enough of a voltage change to trigger the Multi Burst Envelopes. If I raise the Colour control it will trigger more often.
The Multi Burst Envelopes produces a chosen number of bursts of the selected envelope shape. The built-in LFO controls the speed of the bursts, as does the Clock input, but both can be used together or independently. I'm using it to control the frequency of the ENTROPIC DOOM's low pass filter, to generate an occasional burst of filtered noise."

A desktop spring reverb unit featuring a built-in miniature spring.

You can use its high-quality, authentic spring to achieve a beautiful, classic reverb—or you can dive headfirst into the lush, vibrant resonance of a wildly oscillating spring, letting yourself drift and drown in its saturated wetness. It gets absolutely drenched.

And while nobody explicitly told you to shake it, smack it around, or slam it against the table... well, naturally, you’re going to do it. After all, there’s a real spring inside that actually shakes! It’s the thrill of the authentic.

Mix the clean-boosted signal (GAIN) with the spring-reverb-processed signal (REVERB), then adjust the overall output volume using the LEVEL control.

When the switch is in the down position, the signal bypasses the effect, passing directly from IN to OUT. The LED illuminates when the effect is active.

Starsky Carr's Studio: Vintage & Modern Synth Setup Explained

video upload by Starsky Carr

"Welcome to a full synth studio tour — a look inside my hardware setup featuring vintage analog synths, modern wavetable instruments, modular gear and classic drum machines.

See how a mix of vintage synths, modern instruments, modular gear and drum machines all come together in one integrated setup. In this video I walk through the studio, explain how everything is connected, and show some of the instruments that regularly appear on the channel.

The studio is constantly evolving as new synths arrive, others get repaired, and different setups are tested for videos. In this walkthrough you'll see how classic gear like the Juno-60, Prophet series, Minimoog, TR-808, TR-909 and Jupiter synths sit alongside modern instruments such as the UDO Super 8, Groove Synthesis 3rd Wave, Waldorf M, Arturia PolyBrute and Roland System-8.

I also explain how everything is routed through the studio — from CV-controlled vintage synths integrated with MIDI, to the AudioFuse interface and Neve summing mixer that handle the audio side of things.

If you've ever wondered how to organise a hardware synth studio, integrate vintage CV instruments with modern DAWs, or just want to see a room full of iconic synths and drum machines, this video gives you a behind-the-scenes look at the setup behind the channel.

You’ll also hear a few stories along the way — including the slightly ridiculous “six degrees of separation” link from my studio gear to Charlize Theron and Kevin Bacon through the Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels soundtrack.

Whether you're into analog synthesis, wavetable synths, modular gear, or classic drum machines, this studio tour is packed with gear, ideas and inspiration.

SISTERS - Ambient session #29 // Mannequins Three Sisters, Arbhar, Panharmonium, Subharmonicon

video upload by David Falcon

"First sounds with the Mannequins Sisters, such an interesting little module. In its core is a triple filter (Hi, Low and Band Pass) but it works great as an spectral mixer. I am slowly modulating the frequency cutoff so that the different sounds come and go progressively. Very little resonance added, it can be very resonant!

// Patch Notes //
Voice 1- Arbhar recording of my voice and ambient sounds with the internal microphone. High input of Sisters.
Voice 2 - Maths Tom sound into Rings. Center of Sisters.
Voice 3 - Panharmonium with a Random sequence from Pams into the Low input of Sisters.
These 3 voices go into the Xaoc Praga mixer, with Mimeophon and FX Aid in the sends. I am modulating the volume and panof
Voice 2 from Øchd and Pams, and the panning of Arbhar from Pams too. The mix goes through Qubit Mojave for the occasional reversed granular bleep.
Voice 4 - Subharmonicon through Blooper as a delay and Mercury 7 as Reverb.
Voice 5 - Low kick from DFAM


Recorded in a single stereo mix and mastered in Ableton."
