"Rithmatic turns the 64-slot Korg volca FM2 into a searchable, offline library of tens of thousands of classic DX7 patches, all credited to the public collections they came from, and pushes any voice straight to the synth, with full one-file backup and restore of the whole box, plus real-time control of its sequencer transport and live motion. And because it carries its own FM engine, Rithmatic is a playable DX7-style synth in its own right: plug in any MIDI keyboard and play those patches with no hardware synth at all. Korg never made a librarian for the FM2, and unlike the desktop options (Dexed, Patch Base) this one runs on the phone already in your bag. Free, local-first, no account.
Music tooling is a big part of what we do, and we also make Emojio Paint Composer, a browser music sequencer that speaks full MIDI."
"Fun jam starting out with a Pad from the Access Virus TI. The Roland Juno 60 was playing a nice backing lead melody through the Hologram Microcosm. The Korg Monopoly with a nice top lead through the GFI Specular Tempus analog delay. Bass was the Moog Mother 32 and the drums are the Dave Smith Tempest. Some additional reverb from the Strymon Bigsky MX.

"He knocked it out the park did Vivaldi, with Autumn Part 2. I had it programmed and up on the ARPs for a couple of weeks before I filmed it this afternoon. Was a one take wonder this time, but I had been fiddling with it for a fortnight. And it's very hard to mess up this one.
The Odyssey FS keyboard (on it's side) is taking place of Odyssey #3 (still at the repair place ...) and is handling the 'not needing to be filldled with' bass. Top left (#1) is playing the PWM'd arpeggio. #2, #4 & #5 are playing the 'string' parts and #6 is on sub bass and white noise duties. It's being modulated by it's LFO on the lowest rate.
There's no EQ or mixing going on but I did lean into Ableton's Delay on the Arpeggio and Sub Bass / Wind synths and everything was fed through Arturia's lovely LX-24 Reverb.
"In this Korg Kronos 3 comparison and patching video, I put the incredible AL-1 synthesis engine to the test by programming it as a virtual analogue synth and comparing it directly with my Korg Prologue analogue synthesizer. Can the Korg Kronos 3 really capture the warmth, character, and punch of a true analogue synth, or does the Korg Prologue still have the edge? Join me as I explore oscillators, filters, envelopes, and detailed sound design techniques to find out.
This video is perfect for anyone interested in the Korg Kronos 3, Korg Prologue, AL-1, Korg Nautilus, virtual analogue synthesis, analogue synth programming, synthesizer reviews, synth comparisons, sound design synth tutorials, keyboard workstations, music production, and synthesis. Whether you're deciding between a workstation and a dedicated analogue synth, or simply want to learn how to make a digital synth sound convincingly analogue, this comparison is packed with practical demonstrations and programming tips.
If you enjoy synth reviews, synth demos, Korg Kronos 3 content, AL-1 tutorials, sound design, and in-depth comparisons of modern synthesizers, be sure to like, subscribe, and share this video. Your support helps the channel grow and helps more synthesizer enthusiasts discover detailed, honest, and educational content."
"We look at the @KorgOfficial Korg NTS-4, a compact Nu:Tekt performance mixer kit with audio interface.
Assembly is simple, with clear instructions and no soldering.
It has two mono inputs, four stereo inputs, stereo send and return, cue monitoring, USB retrurn level, headphone output and a two-channel USB audio interface running at 24-bit/48kHz.
There are two FX engines, one on the send which includes delays, reverbs, chorus and a range of master effects such as filters, phaser, decimator, drive, distortion, compression and limiting.
These effects are fixed rather than expandable via the Logue SDK of others in the Nu:Tekt range , but they suit hands-on performance - albeit a little fiddly.
The cue system works pre-fader, giving a basic extra bus at a pinch.
USB ground loop noise is possible in some setups.
"My sound patches: https://espenkraft.com
Kawai K3 & K3m patch editor and librarian — it runs in your web browser.
A tool I built to edit and organise sounds on the Kawai K3 and K3m hybrid synthesizer.
Tweak every parameter on screen, pull single patches or whole banks off the synth, back them up as sysex files, or load sysex files from your computer and into the hardware.
I added a little on-screen keyboard too, handy if you're using the K3m.
It runs in a web browser (Chrome or Edge — not Firefox or Safari) with a MIDI interface connected to the synth. It works on PC and Mac, and under Linux.
It's my personal tool shared for anyone who wants it. Setup instructions come in a short readme with the file, but I offer no support on this. It's shared 'as is'.
"The EMW VPoly-6X from @emwsynthesizers is a Brazilian polyphonic VA synthesizer, in module format, inspired by the classic Korg Polysix.
I had the opportunity to follow part of the development, test different prototypes, and contribute some ideas to the project. In this video, I show in detail how the VPoly works, its construction, its voice modes, effects, timbre editing, and, most importantly, how it sounds.
The VPoly 6X has six voices of polyphony, an oscillator with sub-oscillator, a multimode filter, envelopes, LFO, different polyphonic and monophonic modes, and an effects processor with chorus, ensemble, phaser, delay, and Bloom.
I also show the Spread, an independent feature that distributes the voices in the stereo field and adds small variations in pitch, creating broad and immersive sounds.

Atmosphera for Korg Prologue - This is a new sound bank for Korg Prologue 16/8 synthesizers.Immerse yourself in the true atmosphere of pure analog sound with this library.
Inspired by Blade Runner, Boards Of Canada and my own life expirience, which I conveyed into these sounds
Here you will find deep textured Pads, mesmerizing Synth sounds with a Retro spirit, low punchy Basslines, Chords, atmospheric modulated Effects, Plucks inspired by DX, Cinematic sounds and other Ambient-inspired patches. The sound of the wind, rain and sea, the sound of the sun warming the earth and life on earth - this is approximately how this library can be characterized.
The soundset contains 50 Korg Prologue presets & patches
Made by Igor Leus aka NatLife.
Note: I used the approach of a dry signal and a signal processed by the Dark Sun pedal approach to give you an idea of what's in the library and how it might sound processed."
"My singing is poor at best and am actually a man so have used Ace Studio to generate some cool Female vocals. Still not had much time with the Opsix so it is just doing a simple bass. Hydrasynth doing house chords as usual and Sub37 doing what it does best."
"Rob works on one of the rarest vocoders in the world for a super special client. Zak and Benny jam on the 8-Voice and CS-80, Benny explains some of his favorite settings on the 8-Voice. Freddie works on a Korg Trident."
"The studios house a vast collection of vintage and state of the art electronic music instruments, equipment and facilities to suit to musicians, researchers, and artists with diverse creative practices and requirements.
In the studio’s 60 year history we have acquired a substantial assemblage of rare and unique electronic music-making, instruments, tools and technologies which have been at the centre of research projects across the department for many years.
