ARP Foundation Releases Starpath Vol. 1 for the KORG ARP2600 VST

Scott McAuley Sounds and James Dyson created 200 patches for the software synthesizer, with all proceeds supporting the Foundation’s archives and ARPs for All program.

Kingston, NY, November 10, 2026 —The Alan R. Pearlman Foundation announces Starpath Vol. 1, a collection of 200 original patches for the KORG ARP2600 VST. Created by Scott McAuley Sounds and James Dyson, the sound bank will be sold exclusively through the Foundation for $39.99. All proceeds benefit the Foundation’s work to preserve Alan R. Pearlman’s legacy and expand public access to his instruments.

Purchase STARPATH

The original ARP 2600 laid out its signal path on the front panel so players could see how its modules worked together and use patch cables to change those connections. Starpath Vol. 1 gives musicians 200 ways into that same architecture in KORG’s software instrument. Each preset can go straight into a session or serve as a starting point for tracing a signal path and reshaping the sound.

The collection spans basses, leads, pads, keys, arpeggios, sequences, and strings, with sounds for electronic dance music, film scoring, and other productions. Most patches are programmed for polyphonic aftertouch, so players using a compatible controller can shape individual notes by varying the pressure on each key. The bank takes advantage of KORG’s software recreation, which offers up to 16 voices of polyphony.

The Foundation will receive 100% of the proceeds to support its archiving work and ARPs for All, a program that gives musicians hands-on access to rare vintage ARP synthesizers.

Korg M1 and M1R Editors Now Available

via Coffeeshopped

"Happy November! Today marks the release of two new editors for Patch Base: the Korg M1 and its rack-mount sibling, the Korg M1R. Available now on Mac and iPad. Let's see what they've got going on:

Program Editor
The Korg M1/M1R calls its voice patches 'Programs', and Patch Base shows you all of their parameters in an immediate and compact format. The Main page shows you an Oscillator at a time: for the M1, an 'Oscillator' consists of a Multisound (sample), and Pitch, Filter, and Amp information. You can see, copy, and paste every envelope. Below the Oscillator you have the Effects units, and both LFOs. And on the right, all of the Controller modulation options. The whole patch is here on a page.

Roland Jupiter- 08

video upload by TheUftone

".My first experience with the Roland Jupiter-08.
Aside from the fact that it takes a while to boot up,
it’s a compact synthesizer that truly satisfies both the desire for ownership and the craving for great sound. The sound it produces far exceeds what you’d expect from its physical size—
it’s the Jupiter-8, after all. Connecting it to the Korg drumlogue requires just a single sync cable
(the green one in this video); no special configuration is needed
(provided you haven’t changed any of the default settings)."

Fractured Light: Eurorack and Synth Performance

video upload by MKustomAudio

"Another full performance video using a number of external pieces of equipment. The idea started with wanting to use my new Hikari Duos as a glitchy background sound effect that would start static but then have a pumping effect once further into the track.

While the Squarp Rample is providing some additional background samples, the Elektron Digitakt II is providing the main percussive and some melodic samples. For additional performance items, the Digitakt is running through the Noise Engineering Versio module with the 3rd party FRGMNTS firmware.

To fill in the additional melodic content, various eurorack and standalone synths were used including the Mutable Instrument Elements, Sequential OB-6 Desktop, Novation Bass Station II and Peak, Korg Arp 2600M and Moog Mother 32."

Melodic Techno House 🎹 | Relaxing Synth Live Jam | Korg Volca Setup

video upload by Underground Modulation

"A relaxing Melodic Techno House synth jam featuring beautiful melodies, warm analog basslines and atmospheric synthesizer textures. 🎹

This time, I'm going for something different: a calm, easy-listening melodic techno house jam without tension or aggressive elements. Just smooth electronic grooves, warm synthesizer sounds and evolving melodies.

Four Korg Volca synthesizers come together to create this melodic journey:

🎹 Korg Volca Keys – Main melodic line and beautiful analog sounds.

🌌 Korg Volca FM – Atmospheric melodic textures and evolving electronic sounds.

🔊 Korg Volca Bass – Deep and warm analog basslines.

🥁 Korg Volca Drum – Electronic drums and percussion.

My setup and workflow:

Everything is sequenced and recorded in Ableton Live. I'm using Ableton Live's delay and reverb effects to add depth, atmosphere and space to the synthesizer sounds.

Novation Launchpad Mini helps me switch between clips and control the arrangement during the performance.

Final mastering is also done in Ableton Live.

I love exploring different musical directions with hardware synthesizers, and this time I wanted to create something melodic, peaceful and enjoyable.

🎧 Put on your headphones, relax and enjoy the journey!"

NEW Waldorf Crema + GRP A2 | Live Improvisation in C Minor

"Exploring the brand new Waldorf Crema polyphonic synthesizer in a live hardware session. A bass sequence is running on the GRP A2 synth, while I freely improvise the pads on the Waldorf Crema using the classic Korg T1 as the master keyboard. The combination of the GRP's raw analog bass and the Crema's lush, modern polyphonic textures made me smile.

INARA Brings Modern Control and Expanded Capabilities to Classic Synthesizers

Press release follows:

Troy, Illinois — November 11, 2026 — Five Lined Engineering, LLC announces INARA, a line of purpose-built MIDI controllers that bring modern capabilities to classic synthesizers.

INARA combines hands-on controls, expanded patch storage, and modern MIDI connectivity for musicians who want to get more from their existing instruments.

Far more than a generalized surface controller, each INARA model is designed specifically for the synthesizer it supports. Features include a customized control surface, real-time MIDI Control Change (CC) control, generously expanded patch storage through virtual cartridges, and USB-MIDI connectivity. Custom firmware enhancements also improve the experience of using vintage instruments; for example, optimizing the Yamaha DX7’s keyboard velocity response.

INARA eliminates the need for drivers, control-surface templates, and manual MIDI message editing: connect it and start playing. For hands-on operation, it features ergonomically spaced, full-size tactile buttons, 45mm long-throw faders, and a large LCD display. Its compact, lightweight design combines solid construction with rubber feet for secure placement on a synthesizer or other equipment.

“Five Lined Engineering is excited to introduce INARA to musicians who are as passionate about their vintage synthesizers as we are, ” said Gary Sommer, Managing Director of Five Lined Engineering. “It is striking how inspiring, accessible, and fun these synthesizers are when partnered with INARA.”

INARA models are available for the Yamaha DX7, Korg DW-8000, and Roland Alpha Juno.

Additional models are planned. For USB-MIDI connectivity, INARA is class-compliant and compatible with operating systems that support class-compliant USB-MIDI devices.

INARA is available immediately in the United States with each model priced at $299 through www.fivelined.com/inara/. Visit www.fivelined.com for more information.
