Playlist:

1. Behringer 2600 Gray Meanie meets Moog Sound Studio (DFAM, Subharmonicon, Labyrinth) | First Jam

Lately I picked up another synth... yeah, GAS hits hard 😅 My first jam with the Gray Meanie! I still remember loading up Arturia's ARP 2600 emulation years ago and thinking, "what is this shit?" I didn't understand anything back then. I gave up on it pretty quickly and forgot all about it. Later, I found out through deadmau5's MasterClass that it was the synth behind R2-D2's voice, which got me interested again... but only for a while.

Fast forward to now, I finally bought one and decided it's time to actually learn it. I think it'll be a great addition to my semi-modular setup. I'm really enjoying it so far! Behringer did a solid job with this one: the leds looks great, feels really well built, and works really well with my korg sequencer.

Anyway... hope you find this little noodling session interesting! 🤘🏻

2. Trying to make the Behringer 2600 work with my Moog Sound Studio | Jam

Just a quick jam exploring this Behringer/Moog setup and seeing if they actually complement each other.

A lot of people say Behringer synths just don't belong next to Moogs... so yeah, I'm doing my best to make it work. :D

Hope you enjoy! 🤘🏻

3. Behringer 2600, KORG SQ-64, Moog Sound Studio (DFAM, Subharmonicon, Labyrinth) | Synth Jam

Another quick jam using the Grey Meanie alongside the Moog Sound Studio. Hope you find it interesting! :D

btw, I’ve been struggling with free time lately, so you might’ve noticed I'm behind on comments.. But I'll catch up step by step! And of course, I’ll be checking out your jams too! Cheers, friends! 🤘🏻

4. Behringer 2600 Gray Meanie | Noodling Session

Gray Meanie stuff... I really need to learn this synth, feeling quite lost while jamming, so yeah... This isn't even a jam, it's just a noodling session, trying things out with the Korg SQ-64...

Hope you find it interesting!

5. Paraphonic mode on Behringer 2600 | Noodling Session

First time using the 2600 in duo mode. I used the Arturia MicroBrute strictly as a keyboard controller, there's no sound coming from it here. The whole thing is just a raw jam with a many mistakes, but I was having a blast. I really love how the 2600 sounds as a paraphonic synth and I was completely lost in the zone while noodling...

Hope you find it interesting!

OP-XY: A year on. It's 100% my favourite box ever by far. Trip-Hop Live Jam

video upload by Dan Chippendale

"So I looked at the calendar and low and behold, I got my OP-XY exactly a year ago (my first video was posted a few days later on the 28th Aug 25. This thing gets me. I get it. I don't know which way round but I'm now making music that matches my vision. I seem to be able to squeeze sounds out of it that I love and I grow to love it more and more each time. Thank you ‪@teenageengineering‬ for making such an incredible device and I look forward to the future of the OP-XY platform!

Hope you enjoy

This one was spotted and sent in via
M Me.

"Ultra rare Sequential Prophet 3000 sampler, serial number 0016 of only 252 units ever made, maybe a prototype.

In very good aesthetic shape.

Includes detachable screen, original Wine Country spare cable phone like connector
Original box with original blue foams with vintage stamps
Original 15 Sequential sample diskettes (maybe valued in 300 euros or more)
Extra diagnose diskette
The detachable screen works and shows the logo and the options, it loads but nothing sounds, my tech recapped, used the Wine Country survival kit we bought (bill included) but he lacked of the skills to fix it, and I do not know any with enough expertise, so I am selling as it for any who wants to have this rare piece of Sequential history.

Totally complete, any chip, board, piece is missed but the easy to get rack ears.
No returns, no warranty, sold as is."

Alesis Andromeda A6 - He didn´t see this coming ...

video upload by The Synth King

"I honestly didn't see this coming. The Alesis Andromeda A6 is famous for being a massive analog monster, but I was completely shocked by the sheer variety of sounds it can pull off.

In this video, I’m exploring the sonic palette of this legendary synthesizer—and it absolutely blew my mind. It doesn't just do classic analog warmth; it even nailed convincing PPG-style wavetable textures!

🎹 What's your favorite patch from the video? Let me know in the comments!

Echon6 Samples and a FREE Auto Sample Tool for Decent Sampler

video upload by Starsky Carr

"Point a MIDI cable at your synth, walk away, and come back to a finished Decent Sampler instrument. I've built a tool that does exactly that — and it's completely free.

The Morphor Echon6 has been on my bench for weeks now and it still sounds fabulous — that lovely organic feel I keep going on about. The whole point of this channel is to give you the experience of playing the synth yourself, so I wanted to go one better: give you the actual presets to play.

So I started auto-sampling the Echon6 on the 1010music Bento… and then remembered why sampling is such a pain. It's not the recording. It's everything after: trimming, levelling, converting, hand-building the mapping. So I spent a weekend making a tool that does the whole lot, start to finish, and now it's yours.

Runs in your browser, works on Mac and PC, comes with a full manual. You might need to install Python if your machine hasn't got it (most have). It's not a polished app with a pretty icon — you click a command file — but it works, believe me.

Honest warning: I'm not a programmer. My digital assistant did the heavy lifting. I can't offer any support on this whatsoever, because the answer will be "I haven't got a clue." It should work. Have fun with it — and do tell me what you end up sampling with it, I'd love to know.

🎹 ECHON6 SAMPLES

There's a FREE 2-preset Echon6 Decent Sampler pack to get you started, and a full 20-preset library for anyone who wants the lot — 800MB of detailed multisamples, no effects, just the raw beauty of the thing.

🎵 And stay to the end — two finished tracks from the Echon6 sessions, because the music is why we're all doing this in the first place."

This Analog Synth Is Cheating - Redshift 6 + Digitakt 2 Jam

video upload by Sineway

"This is the first proper track I've made with the Redshift 6 and Digitakt II combo.

The 3-note chord stab you hear at the start is using a single analog voice. The Redshift 6 can distribute the up to 16 oscillators inside a voice across several notes, so one voice plays the whole chord. The arp is another single voice. Then the lead takes the remaining four with unison stacking, around 16 oscillators in total, and I'm performing it with both the built-in macros and the Launch Control XL 3.

The Redshift 6 is six-part multitimbral, with three separate outputs. The main outs play the lead, run through the synth's internal delay, but Aux 1 and Aux 2 are always bypassing the digital FX section - which felt like an invitation to put both Hologram pedals to real work. The arp goes into the Chroma Console, and it completely transforms what was a fairly plain pluck sound I dialed in seconds. The chords go into the Microcosm to make them bigger.

Everything else melodic was sampled from the Redshift 6 into the Digitakt II, which is doing all the sequencing and drums.

No Overbridge this time. Just four stems into my Zoom LiveTrak L6max: the DT2, plus the Redshift's main outs, Aux 1 and Aux 2. Some sidechain ducking, glue compression and EQ in Ableton, and that's about it. Mostly raw hardware.

I originally sketched this in the camper van with just the DT2, and went through three or four lead melodies I wasn't happy with before landing on this one. All those attempts are still in the project file if you want to see the messy version.

There's no official patch export on the Redshift 6 yet, but Supercritical tells me it's coming and I'll upload the patch as soon as it does. The Digitakt II project is on my Patreon in the meantime."

Generative #ambient #synth patch: Juno 6 and DX 7 sounds mangled and driven by Shoal on DistingNT

video upload by voltryx

"A walkthrough of a slow-evolving generative ambient patch built around the Expert Sleepers Disting NT and the Shoal plug-in (https://github.com/ormermodular/shoal).

Shoal generates eight channels of notes and gates, which I route internally through CV-to-MIDI and send to an AMYboard running a mixture of Juno-6 and DX7-inspired synth voices. The audio then returns to the Disting NT for bitcrushing and Kirbinator-based mangling before passing through the Delay Magneto algorithm on the FX Aid.

This is only my first exploration of Shoal or perhaps just dipping my toes in. I look at its global scale and tempo settings, per-channel sequence lengths and evolution controls, plus the mute, density and note-range controls available from the main page.

I’m also using a small Python app I vibe-coded to assign built-in and custom AMYboard presets to different MIDI channels. Let me know in the comments if you’d like me to put it on GitHub.

Patch:
Disting NT → Shoal → CV-to-MIDI → AMYboard
AMYboard → Disting NT Bitcrusher/Kirbinator → FX Aid Delay Magneto → Mixer

M-Vave FM-1 | Guide for Patch Initialization and the Envelopes

video upload by MiyafujiP

"I've never owned a DX7, so for me, the envelopes on the FM-1 (based on the DX7 engine) were a little confusing at first. I researched about them and experimented a bit, and am sharing my findings in this video.

Also, sharing how to initialize a patch since that's also a function that's a little hidden.

Hope this helps somebody! =)"

Saul Stokes: Saltar's Point Album Preview (Live Video Sculpture Performance)

video upload by Saul Stokes

"First, a very special thank you to Justin and the team at Resident Electronic Monthly (San Francisco) for capturing this performance. I truly appreciate this team of amazing musicians and artists. This video is an excerpt from my next solo album, which, unfortunately, I don't have a title for yet. I have been writing the music to a video I made up in Steilacoom, Washington, so I have opted to title this Saltar's Point for now. I'm hoping to wrap it up this year. I feel like this album will be quite a jump for me. I don't quite know what I could reference it to. Perhaps a minuscule nod to Enya, or Ray Lynch's Celestial Soda Pop. I am in contact with a local musician/engineer about possibly doing a Dolby Atmos release for this as well as a possible physical release. If you'd like to stay close and hear more about this as I work on completing this album, connect with me on Instagram.

I have been doing more and more video work using the program Touchdesigner. I'm still a novice, but it's incredibly fun to create 'digital things' that in some way feel organic and alive. Thanks again to Resident Monthly. If you're into electronic music and live in the Bay Area, come down to a future performance. They happen on the last Thursday of each Month.

Special thanks to:

Beetlecrab Tempera meets Novation Mininova sounds - sonic chaos!

video upload by hirundo1984

"Alright, there are nearly endless possibilities of exploring various sounds and creating something new. This might be a very interesting combo."

Beetlecrab Tempera - after 3 days of using it

video upload by hirundo1984

"I recently received my unit from Beetlecrab and was super excited about it! At this moment I'm still learning the very basics, trying to figure out what is what, how do things work etc.

There are things that I find pretty straightforward, others are still confusing. Overall, the menu diving isn't bad at all, most of the things are pretty intuitive.

What is new to me (that's my first granular device) is how exactly do these emitters work, I will need to spend some time with the manual. They all behave differently.

Anyway, so that's one of my first attempts to create something on this wonderful device. Hopefully within next week or two I can learn a thing or two and come up with something different."

"I recorded this video really haphazardly so excuse the chaos. I'm sure if you're curious about this magnificent workhorse of a drummachine that you'll find plenty of interesting information in this video.

Thanks to Marcel for lending me this unit!"

The Crow Hill Company Introduces ARCANE STRINGS

video upload by CROW HILL

Press release follows:



EDINBURGH, UK: readily representing its first ‘big’ release in over a year (when the temporarily out-of-circulation GLASS STRINGS was effectively re-released with a totally redesigned GUI and added features as the Edinburgh-based enterprise’s workhorse string library for a new era in more human-sounding music and scores, coinciding with rebranding itself with an aesthetic that truly realised company co-founder and composer Christian Henson’s heartfelt dream of encouraging people to make music and help them on their journey, regardless of whatever point they were at and wherever their journey began), The Crow Hill Company is proud to announce availability of ARCANE STRINGS — taking the sampling rule book and ripping it up, ultimately resulting in a string library featuring amateur players in order to achieve an arcane, primitive, dislocated, microtonal, loose, and sometimes savage sound duly designed for media composers wanting to leave a truly characterful imprint on their next drama score, or, indeed, composers who want to gain extra devilish bite out of their existing string collections — as of August 14…

Hypercube Quadriphonique

video upload by Valmont

"Hypercube Quadriphonique", October 2024. This installation was part of a larger practical exercise at the ENS Louis Lumière master's degree.
Two meters above ground, inclined at an ominous angle, the cube generated four sets of textures layered into a quadriphonic speaker setup. A master OSC patch controlled all the devices in the exposition room ; on my end for my cube I was running MIDI and CV.
I first built a 16-channels 12-bits controller to get everything in harmony, but ended up simplifying the equation to use 4-states inputs and 4 audio outputs, traveling back and forth through the cube in a massive cable liana. The room environment was cyclically controlled by the master patch, and my cube would reconfigure its instruments to play along with the other creations. All sounds were made on a dozen oscillators, a handful of sample players and some Live processing. There was some random breakbeat chops too lmao I loved it, but I lost the session, so I only got some raw cube recordings, which I edited/mixed into this video. Additional black tiles were made to close off the bottom of the cube (just blank PCBs actually!)
Thanks again to Mains d'Œuvres, Franck for the safety tips, my father who helped me cut & paint the wood, and Neurotypic who lent me half the modules. I don't know anyone else who would just say yes to putting laboratory-grade devices into this... thing, suspended with fishing wire!

My name is Valmont, I'm 24 from Paris! I compose/produce music, repair instruments and take sound on movie sets :) After a double bachelor in musicology and mechanics in Sorbonne, I ended up doing the Ecole Nationale Supérieure Louis-Lumière.
I wrote my thesis on Publison and Early Digital, which ultimately tied together my long-standing fascination in vintage machines, servicing and technical demystification with my personal attraction to these instruments.
I tend to hope for a unified low-level approach to music production guided by DIY values. This Youtube channel is a form of its realization!

Michael Whalen's Synth Jam. "SHREDDING! Unapologetically…"

video upload by Michael Whalen

"Here’s some shredness—which, apparently, works best at slower tempos.

I absolutely LOVE this factory sound on the Waldorf Quantum MK II. This :90 romp features some crazy pitch-wheel work, polyphonic aftertouch, and my (patented 😂) hand-over-hand technique.

As ever, the backing track was created entirely by me (no AI BS) and the solo was played LIVE, in one continuous take, for the cameras. No edits. No assembling the 'best bits.' Just playing... Enjoy. M"

GLX BALSAM #2 | Winterdagen

video upload by Winterdagen

"Here's another on on the amazing GLX BALSAM! This dark and moody patch and the note glides somehow remind me of Mica Levi's score for Under the Skin which is a very very good thing :-)

I love that BALSAM has a dedicated bipolar slider to route the mod envelope to the LFO time. In this case it makes the LFO - which is modulating the filter - start very fast and slow down over time. I'm using the 2-pole lowpass filter here, I absolutely love its character. It leaves in a little more high frequencies than a 4-pole filter, making the patch sound nice and buzzy. I've quite heavily detuned the oscillators from each other and I'm again using BALSAM's special power viscosity to make each oscillator glide to the next note at its own rate when using the pitch sliders. This makes the sound feel so alive!

I did use some external fx in this piece, Strymon El Capistan and Nightsky. BALSAM sounds gorgeous completely dry as well, but I love a little space in a piece like this one.

Find out more about BALSAM at: https://glx.ltd/"

Walrus Audio Lum Texture Engine

video upload by Duskmos

"Today I'm taking a look at the Lüm from Walrus Audio - a granular texture engine that is part grain engine, part reverb, part tripped out mega multi-headed dotted delay type situation. It's a wild pedal that fills the silence between notes with tons of flair. Hang out while I give it a look with the OP-1 Field. Let me know what you think in the comments!"

Vintage Vocoder w/ Bigfoot Music Sticker on Back

"Superb vintage Vocoder unit.

Unable to find out much information online about this to be honest - there's a 'Bigfoot Music' sticker on the back, but I'm pretty certain that was probably a shop rather than the maker.

I have tested the 'Speech' side and it was all working fine, sounds great!

I couldn't get a sound from the right side (ex.) but I'm no expert on these so maybe it's just a case of flipping the correct switch.

I also haven't tested the rear inputs/(outputs?) as I'm not sure what they're for.

Great chance to own a rare piece of vintage music gear!"

Supercritical Redshift 6 | Cinematic performance

video upload by Jay Hosking

"Please support my work on Patreon: / jayhosking
A live synthesizer jam performed with the Redshift 6 at the centre. Percussion added afterward in the box.

Fair warning: both Supercritical and MAS Distribution sent along their respective gear (the Redshift 6, and the Solarfaze/Polyphrase, respectively) for free. Take that as you will. Neither of them explicitly asked me to make a video with the gear, although I'm sure that was the point, right? But in both cases, the gear they sent along was a joy to play, which is why they're here.

I ended up really enjoying the Redshift 6. It's ostensibly analog where it counts—6 DCOs and VCFs—but it's also really clean and precise sounding, giving it a digital sheen. That's somewhat less my thing. However, it has a few things to really give it personality: multi-timbrality, up to a different timbre for each of the six voices; a Character parameter which vastly can change the sound of a voice, its filter and mixing and more; a great built-in effects suite (can only run one at a time); three pairs of stereo outputs to run your timbres separately (as here); easy-to-setup macro knobs for live performing using multiple timbres, all from one page; and a built-in sequencer for getting basic ideas onto the table without outside help. In many respects, it feels like an iteration on some of the ideas from the Elektron Analog Four, another synth I really love, only with enough voices to create a pad, arp, and drone at the same time.

Here, I run one timbre, a constant note, into the Vongon Solarfaze, which adds chorus and then drive/saturation. The second timbre, a single-note sequence, runs to the Vongon Polyphrase, adding delay. Both of these pedals impressed me way more than I had expected; there is something extremely performable about the Polyphrase that makes me want to get it on the table again straight away. And then for the third timbre, the pad, I run it direct out from the Redshift 6, using the synth's built-in reverb. I'm pretty picky on reverb these days and I think it sounds awesome.

With the macro knob opening all filters at once (to varying degrees), this live performance got huge. I had originally intended it to be only the synth, but once I heard the final performance, and how much it reminded me of a soundtrack cue, I knew I had to add orchestral percussion. I built the percussion out of modified samples from the Reason Studios loop library.

Altogether, it created an extremely cinematic performance and I'm very happy with the musical results. I was having such a good time with it that I'm excited to get back to the studio today and explore a little more. Thanks for listening.
