4. GCS Spectral Synthesizer - Drawing Sound with the Harmonic Brush

"I'm very excited to release my new Spectral Synth, an additive synthesizer plugin that allows you to draw your own harmonics, clone sound timbres, play the harmonic content of images, and so much more.

In this rendered video, you can see an image being played in real time via a MIDI keyboard, hearing its unique harmonic content. At the end of the playback, while holding a chord, I draw some extra harmonics onto the spectrogram to show how you can evolve sounds on the fly.

Spectral Synth is designed to be both incredibly powerful and intuitive. Whether you want to meticulously craft a sound from scratch or generate complex textures with a single click, it has you covered.

Try it for free for ten days via our website!
Available on all plugin formats for both mac and windows.

www.gulfcoastsynthesis.com

KEY FEATURES:

Hybrid Sound Engine: A true hybrid synthesizer combining a powerful 32-partial additive engine with classic, band-limited analog waveforms (Saw, Square, Triangle) for ultimate flexibility.

Draw Your Sound: Use the brush tool to directly draw or erase harmonics and noise on the spectrogram. Adjust brush size and intensity for precise control.

Drag-and-Drop Synthesis: Simply drop any audio file (.wav, .aif, .flac) onto the screen to automatically clone its harmonic and noise profile, creating an instant starting point for new patches.

Image Synthesis: Drag and drop any image file (.png, .jpg) to translate its brightness into playable harmonics.

Generative Tools: Instantly create complex sonic textures with the "Generate Pattern function.

Partial Mixer: Take manual control over the volume of all 32 individual harmonics with a dedicated fader bank. Push faders above the midpoint to add baseline volume or pull them below to scale your drawn harmonics.

Harmonic Filtering: Isolate specific harmonics with "All," "Even," "Odd," and "Inharmonic" modes for unique timbral shaping.

MODULATION & PERFORMANCE:

Full-Featured Arpeggiator: A comprehensive arpeggiator with multiple patterns (Up, Down, Up/Down, Random, Chord), tempo sync, octave range, note length, and swing controls.

Flexible LFO: One extensive LFO with multiple waveforms that can be routed to modulate pitch, filter cutoff, animation speed, and even create unique "rippling" effects across the partials.

Advanced Analog Modeling: Dial in vintage character with dedicated "Analogness" controls for wow and flutter for incredibly rich, organic sounds.

EFFECTS & FILTERS:

State Variable Filter: A versatile filter with Low-Pass, Band-Pass, and High-Pass modes, complete with its own dedicated ADSR envelope, resonance, and velocity sensitivity.

Vintage Tape Echo: A rich delay section with tempo sync, feedback damping, and a "Tape Dropout" to simulate the beautiful imperfections of analog tape.

Expansive Reverb: A high-quality reverb module to add space, depth, and atmosphere to your sounds.

tech notes:
this is a one take live recording. with mixing and mastering done in post.

all audio recording are multi-tracked (4 stereo channel) via usb c from S-4 to my hackintosh (macos sequoia). recorded using ableton live 11.

i set the buffer size to 256, which seems to be a sweet spot. i was using buffer size 128, but i was getting a lot of noise crackles/cpu drop out.

ableton is sending midi clock to S-4 via usb, then from S-4 i send midi clock to Plinky via TRS 3.5mm. i was sending midi clock to Plinky from ableton via usb, but it was not stable/very wonky. then i tried the TRS from S-4 which was very tight and a lot better.
and also , i need the set the midi sync delay in ableton, i think its about -36ms.

audio out from Plinky goes to S-4 analog in, and i put it into track 4."

Subharmonicon SN 14722
4-Channel Summing Mixer SN 4245

"This bundle of three of Moog's semi-modular synths, DFAM (Drummer From Another Mother), MOTHER32, SUBHARMONICON was specially packaged by the company as a great starter for beginners and professional musicians wanting to get into the modular synth world. This set is beautifully boxed, and shows the love that Moog puts into its products. I have used the synths, but never used or pinned up the posters, sticker or cut outs. They are all untouched. I did play with the patch exploration cards that helped me to learn modular patching to a better extent (Still a full deck).

Moog has discontinued this package, much to the disappointment of many Moog fans. You can still buy the modules separately, but without all the extras that make this set so much fun.

CONTENTS: Moog Sound Studio’s full bundle comes with a three tiered rack with a cable rack that can be attached to store patch cables, custom dust cover, audio mixer, patch book and cables. Other items in the package contain a synth exploration card game and custom artwork by Moog, a Moog screwdriver and Moog pouch for the cables, MIDI patch cable to patch to outboard midi keyboards. I'm adding extra patch cables that weren't in the original purchase" + "'skins' or layovers mimicking the original Moog Matriarch colors which I'm including in the package."

Groove Is In The Heart/Deee-Lite (Circuit Tracks Version)


video upload by Guinan

"I watched ‪@smallplatesmusic‬ excellent video detailing the story behind the samples used in the very excellent 1990 track 'Groove Is In The Heart' by Deee-Lite and thought it warranted a Circuit Tracks version.

I cleared the decks this afternoon and got to work!

(Check out the highly recommended original video below)

James recreates many of his tracks using Koala software and I've taken some of his edits, sprinkled a few extra ones from the original sources and have shoehorned them into a Circuit Tracks arrangement.

Everything you hear was programmed into and played on a single Circuit Tracks with no additional effects or synths. Hopefully it shows what a great sample player/drum machine it can be! (probably not quite how Novation thought this machine would be used - but it kinda works!)

The only non-original sources are a couple of Linn drum samples to beef up the rhythm, some General MIDI 'scratching' samples and some finger clicking and verbal gymnastics from the man himself, ‪@smallplatesmusic‬

More details for synths nerds
BPM=122
No synths on this mate! Only samples!!
No 'butter' notes either..."

"Groove Is in the Heart": Sample Breakdown, stories, recreating Deee-Lite track in Koala Sampler

video upload by small plates music

"Built on Herbie Hancock’s "Bring Down the Birds" and Vernon Burch’s 'Get Up' but including some very unexpected, sound effects, sitcom snippets, and belly‑dancing records, Groove Is In The Heart has big hidden depths.

I'll dig into the samples and tell you the stories behind each one:

Miles Davis’s 'butter notes,'
How an innocent sounding sample is hiding one of the dirtiest of house divas
A tenuous link with Donald Trump
Is belly dancing Greek? And why do we care?

In the end I will drop the samples into Koala Sampler (on my iPhone) and try to recreate the track. Because yes, we have Deee Lite at home.

Perfect for fans of sample culture, music history, and anyone curious about how one of the most joyful dance tracks ever was crafted.

0:00 - Introduction Overview of 'Groove Is in the Heart'

0:42 - Herbie Hancock 'Bring Down The Birds'
Origins of the melodic bassline and guitar and the Blow-Up soundtrack. Why Miles Davis did (not) tell Herbie to lay off the butter

2:17 - Vernon Burch 'Get Up'.
Burch’s career and gospel recordings, with surprising Stevie Wonder cameo.

3:08 - Combining the Hancock and Burch samples using the Koala sampler.

3:39 - Imagine my surprise when this “Trumpet” is actually supposed to be a woman’s scream?

4:30 - Hateful Head Helen / Sweet Pssy Pauline, HIDDEN FILTH. This is the original sample btw- • Hateful head helen ACAPELLA

5:35 - Sitcom Sample (Green Acres) The “I-I-I-I” vocal clip comes from a 1960s sitcom theme tune. Watch Donald Trump at the 2005 Emmys performing the same theme tune.

7:33 – Belly Dance Record Sample Intro chant “We’re going to dance and have some fun” from Tomee and the Grecian Knights. Discussion of belly dancing trend and what the hell a Bosonk is meant to be.

9:22 – Latin Percussion by Ray Barretto, plus studio-made finger clicks.

9:49 – Rebuilding the Track in Koala- Live attempt.

11:07 – Closing Performance Final recreation of the track showing how the samples are layered together.'

"Welcome to the first published 'Instruōdio' session video.
My studio at Instruō HQ has gradually shifted to become more of a video room with occasional music project focus. But it is working really nicely as a space to record discussion sessions with artists and makers.

This is Tom Scholefield (aka Konx-om-Pax)
I've had the pleasure of gigging with Tom a number of times along side others on the Instruō crew.
Tom is an incredible visual artist and composer/sound designer.
We spoke about doing a session like this for ages and finally got together and recorded a few.
In this video Tom gives me a very detailed tour of the patch behind La Création Du Monde
https://konx-om-pax.bandcamp.com/
This has been toured and performed internationally. It is both visually and sonically spectacular. Tom has been very generous sharing his process and various Touch Designer secrets he's created and discovered. This session was a lot of fun to host and produce.

Tom also has a brand new album out that releases today!
Buy the album - Uaxuctum | Konx-om-Pax

Official Merch - Products | Display Copy
https://konxompax.bigcartel.com/products

Uaxactum marks the fifth studio album from Glasgow-based artist Tom Scholefield, better known as Konx-om-Pax.

Following 2020’s Astronomical Objects, this release transcends the boundaries of a traditional record—serving as the sonic counterpart to an ambitious audio-visual work of the same name, commissioned by Glasgow’s Cryptic.

Conceived during an artist residency at Arthouse Jersey, a former army barracks turned creative haven, the album emerged from a period of focused isolation. This environment afforded Scholefield the rare opportunity to develop both score and visuals in tandem, resulting in a deeply integrated multisensory experience. The piece premiered at Sonica 2024 in the Glasgow Science Centre IMAX Theatre, where hallucinatory visuals collided with immersive sound design. A second performance followed in May 2025 as part of the Glasgow 850 celebrations.

The Wire described the work as -

'a tentacular dreamscape where oil slick rainbow colours mutate across an IMAX cinema screen, in synesthetic flow with his tense Penderecki-inspired soundtrack.'"

Xfer Serum 2: Dark Rhythmic Presets. Arps, Pads, Basses Demo


video upload by Anton Anru

"❄️ Alchemy Of Glacial Rhythms is a bank of 50 rhythmic presets for Xfer Serum 2, inspired by the north and its cold winters, which are accompanied by a special dark magic. The core idea of the bank was to create rhythmic, atmospheric, and "cold" sounds that evoke a certain magic. The result was brutal yet ethereal arps, growling basslines, magic pads, cold noisy synths, and mystical textures.

📦 Get these patches: https://antonanru.sellfy.store/p/seru...
The bank includes 50 Presets: 10 arps, 10 basses, 10 pads, 10 synths, 10 textures.
👤 The author of the soundset is skendi (Arseniy Pushkov).

🔮 The soundset spans a wide range of tones, from warm, deep and atmospheric textures to clean, punchy, bright and airy timbres. The sounds include different combinations of oscillators in different modes, such as wavetable, FM, granular and spectral as well as different types of reverbs, delays, distortions, filters, and modulations.
Presets are suitable for genres such as ambient, cinematic, IDM, experimental, techno, breakbeat, jungle and many others.

🎛 Macros can change tone, stereo width, modulation depth and rate, noise level, distortion, detuning, space/echo/reverb, effects mix, envelope parameters, and others.
You may control them via MIDI controller, use them for automation, or map the macros to your DAW modulators like LFO, Shaper, and others.

ModWheel adds expressiveness to the timbre.

❗️Compatible only with Serum 2. Not compatible with Serum 1.
Installation: Open the Serum menu and click 'Show Serum Presets Folder.' You will see folders containing different Serum content. Open the 'Presets' folder and place the new bank (folder) of presets there."
