SynTec — Synthwave Techno | Novation Peak + MinilogueXD + MicroMonsta2 + Blofeld | Dawless Live 17

video upload by STEHRÆON

"SynTec is a tech-driven synthwave track built around a constant, monotone noise bed — steady, hypnotic, and always in motion. Tight rhythmic patterns keep it danceable from start to finish, while a brighter melodic layer builds on top with a subtle melancholic edge.

Rig: Novation Peak, Korg Minilogue XD, MicroMonsta2, Waldorf Blofeld, Roland TR-6S, Novation Circuit Tracks (sequencing only), recorded raw to Tascam Model 12.

All performed live, no DAW, no edits."

KORG Berlin Phase 8 | Acoustic Synthesis from First Touch to Full Jam

video upload by Noisegate

"We head to the Melbourne Electronic Sound Studio for our first hands-on look at the KORG Berlin Phase 8, one of the most unusual instruments to land on the Noisegate desk in years.
Phase 8 is built around eight electromechanical voices, each physically striking a steel resonator or tine. Instead of traditional oscillators, sound is generated through real vibrating materials, then shaped with envelopes, modulation, sequencing, and analogue wavefolding. The result feels closer to playing a physical instrument than programming a synth.

In this video, we explore:
– How Phase 8 produces sound
– Sequencing, pluck, shift and performance controls
– Acoustic interaction using everyday objects
– Processing Phase 8 with external effects
– Integrating Phase 8 into a wider live jam setup

CHAPTERS:
0:39 – Why Phase 8 Is Different
1:04 – What Is Acoustic Synthesis?
1:40 – Touch, Feedback & Physical Interaction
2:13 – Tuning, Scales & Resonators Explained
2:32 – Playing Phase 8 Like a Synth
2:41 – Per-Voice Envelopes & Velocity
3:11 – Air Slider & Raw Pickup Sound
3:35 – Shift & Pluck Performance Controls
4:27 – Sequencer Overview & Storage
4:56 – Playing a Recorded Sequence
5:06 – Step Recording & Polyrhythms
6:21 – Interacting with the Tines Physically
6:30 – Using Objects to Change the Sound
7:50 – Light vs Heavy Materials on the Tines
8:26 – Percussive & Prepared-Style Sounds
9:47 – Modulation & Tonal Experimentation
9:56 – Processing Phase 8 with External Effects
10:14 – Finding Sweet Spots with FX
10:27 – Connectivity: MIDI, USB-C, CV & Sync
10:58 – Hybrid Setup with OP-XY
11:24 – Live Jam Begins
14:29 – Reflections on Exploration & Sweet Spots
15:31 – Why Phase 8 Rewards Time & Touch
15:36 – Trying Phase 8 at MESS
16:04 – Final Thoughts & Sign-Off

We also look at how Phase 8 plays with other gear, including Teenage Engineering OP-XY and outboard effects, and why finding the “sweet spot” is such a big part of the experience."

RetroSound Studio Tour: Classic Analog String Machines from the 70s and 80s

video upload by RetroSound

"Step inside RetroSound Studio for an in-depth studio tour focused on classic analog string machines from the golden era of the 70s and 80s.

In this video, I showcase my collection of vintage string synthesizers, legendary analog ensemble keyboards that shaped the sound of disco, prog rock, synth-pop, ambient, and early electronic music. These iconic instruments are known for their lush chorus effects, warm analog tone, and unmistakable vintage character.

From rare string machines to well-loved classics, this studio tour is a deep dive into the history, sound, and vibe of analog synth technology that continues to inspire modern music production today.

Whether you’re a synth enthusiast, producer, collector, or just love retro sounds, this tour of RetroSound Studio highlights why analog string machines remain timeless.

"***has some issues. Please read fully before purchasing.

I'll start by saying the ENSEMBLE section of this synth sounds incredible and works 100%. The ENSEMBLE section is where the Brass, Strings, Chorus (think synth choir, not a chorus effect), and organ sounds are found. These are the bread and butter of this synth. Huge, fat sounds found in this section, and they all work excellently.

The PERCUSSION section is where the more "transient" sounds are found and they all work on each of the 4 settings (Electric Piano, Clavi, Piano and Harmonics). However, the "B" key in each octave either doesn't sound at all, or just makes a faint sound that is not at all like the others. The "TREMOLO" effect in the PERCUSSION section does not work at all, and if you select it, it effectively mutes all the sounds in the percussion section.

The Chorus modulation on the stick is very very faint, and sometimes not really audible at all. The pitch bend however works flawlessly, and the spring to return it to center is in tact and working 100%. The "CHORUS/PHASE" effect buttons work but the effect sounds underwhelming, but it does work. I don't know enough about the architecture of this keyboard, but I'm assuming the CHORUS/PHASE effect buttons and the CHORUS PHASE control on the stick are related.

Everything else works like it should. And even with these "issues" named above, this is still a very functional synth with some killer sounds that just don't sound like anything else.

Fully polyphonic! ALL notes. Its wild.

Cosmetically it is in very nice condition. There is one light colored scratch down the left side of the wood case (pictured).

I have not made any attempt to service this keyboard. Therefore, this could be a simple contact cleaning for some of these issues to restore some, if not all of its original functionality."
