And one from Starsky Carr:

Analog Done Right // GS Music Bree 6 Keyboard

video upload by Starsky Carr

"In this in-depth demo and review, we explore the GS MUSIC Bree 6 keyboard — a 6-voice VCO-based analog synthesizer with a fully analog signal path, built-in chorus, delay, arpeggiator, and sequencer. If you love that vintage-meets-modern sound, this one might surprise you.

From raw oscillator tones to lush stereo pads and punchy basses, I break down what makes this synth special — including its unique double/triple arpeggiator modes, MPE compatibility, and rich, characterful sound that sits somewhere between classic Roland-style synths and something entirely new.

If you’re into synths like the Roland Jupiter-8 or Roland Juno-106, this is one you’ll want to hear.

🔍 What’s Covered
Sound demo (full track made entirely on the Bree 6)
Oscillator section: saw, pulse, sub oscillator
24dB analog low-pass filter with resonance & key tracking
Dual ADSR envelopes & fast modulation
Voice modes: poly, mono, unison & stereo spread
Built-in chorus & analog-style delay
Unique arpeggiator (double & triple note modes)
Sequencer workflow & performance features
MPE support & expressive control

🎛️ This isn’t just another vintage clone. The Bree 6 blends:

Raw VCO tone with modern reliability
Hands-on workflow (minimal menu diving)
A distinct character that feels alive and immediate
A surprising amount of depth for a single-oscillator synth
🎧 Who Is This For?
Analog synth lovers
Producers looking for fat, mix-ready tones
Fans of classic Roland-style sound with modern features
Anyone wanting a hands-on, inspiring instrument"


via GS Music

The day has arrived

We’re proud to present the Bree6 Keyboard, our first synthesizer with an integrated keyboard, designed and produced in Argentina for the world. 💙

Built on a six-voice analog architecture, it delivers a powerful and expressive sound engine capable of everything from solid basses and leads to rich, evolving pads. Now expanded with a built-in sequencer and advanced arpeggiator, it becomes a complete performance and composition tool.

With its one-knob-per-function interface, semi-weighted keybed with velocity and aftertouch, and fully analog signal path, the Bree6 Keyboard is designed for immediate, hands-on control—no menu diving.
Immediate Control. No Menu Diving.

The Bree6 Keyboard version is designed to deliver an immediate and intuitive hands-on experience, eliminating the need for deep menu navigation. Its interface follows a one-knob-per-function philosophy, providing direct access to all key parameters for fast and precise sound shaping.

Introducing Drum Farm by Knobula


video upload by knobula

Drum Farm is a Eurorack module dedicated to the cultivation and un-ethical treatment of drum sounds. It combines real-time drum synthesis, effect processes and sampling into a hands-on, multi-engine instrument, delivering up to four simultaneous voices and three effects at once."

Press release follows:


Knobula cultivates new ground in drum voice design with Drum Farm performance-focused Eurorack module

LONDON, UK: advanced modular synthesiser developer Knobula is poised to cultivate new ground with its upcoming Drum Farm Eurorack module — merging synthesis, sampling, and real-time effects into a single, hands-on instrument built for fast, intuitive sound design, empowering users to relentlessly sculpt, process, sample, and re-sample sounds grown from its wide range of virtual analogue and physically modelled drum and effects algorithms — readily representing the latest addition to its growing lineup of control-centric instruments embodying a no-screen, no-preset philosophy, as of April 21…

As an appropriate appellation, Drum Farm was inspired by Knobula Technical Director Jason Mayo’s background in computer animation, where vast ‘render farms’ generated thousands of realistic images with minimal human input; as a performance-focused Eurorack drum module occupying 24HP of rack space, it is organised into three core sections: a Drum Synth with 16 virtual analogue and physically modelled drum algorithms, an Effects engine offering 16 different realtime processes, and a digital Sampler with up to three playback voices — capturing the combined output of everything a creative user could conceivably do with it. By bringing all the essential building blocks together, Drum Farm allows for the creation of original sounds quickly and intuitively — whether shaping punchy kicks, layered snares, tuned percussion loops, cymbals, CV/Gate-controlled samples, or physically modelled drum membranes.

Moreover, Drum Farm’s onboard sampler can run automatically in the background, sampling into one of 16 sequential audio buffers. Ultimately, users can capture the drum synthesiser on its own or record hybrid combinations of synthesis, effects, and samples, which can themselves be resampled into richly layered percussion structures or loops. Additionally, an EXT (external) input opens the gate to the world of field recording or sampling directly from elsewhere in a Eurorack system and a row of CV and trigger inputs allows further influence to any assignable control, including the ability to switch samples, drum algorithms, or effect types on the fly.

Duly designed for fast, intuitive sound creation, Drum Farm positively encourages an immediate, iterative workflow — simply select a drum model, sculpt it, process it live through the effects, sample the result, blend it with another model, and repeat. As a result, complex and evolving sounds quickly emerge.

Embodying Knobula’s philosophy of promoting experimentation and tactile control reminiscent of classic real-world instruments, Drum Farm features no screens and no sub-menus. Instead, it is a performance-focused module that rewards hands-on exploration, invites happy accidents, and provides a fertile environment for sounds to flourish and grow.

It is possible to create fully hands-free generative patches, self-building sample libraries, or access to round-robin multi-samples since all controls are CV- or trigger-assignable via five CV/Gate inputs. Sensibly, sounds can be saved to a microSD card alongside a complete snapshot of the module itself, whereby buffers, knob positions, samples, and settings are stored together as a session — with up to 32 sessions per card — allowing users to return to their work, exactly where they left off. It is fair to say, therefore, that Drum Farm is always ready for both studio experimentation and live recall.

Thanks to Knobula cultivating new ground with Drum Synth, the relentless creation of drum parts in Eurorack has never been more immediate or rewarding. Attendees at London Synth & Pedal Expo 2026 may recognise the farm-themed product tease, with ‘alien cow abduction’ subsequently forming the core of Drum Farm’s promotional campaign video.

Shipping scheduled for June 2026, Drum Farm will be available to purchase — priced at £449.00 GBP (including VAT), with a choice of two faceplate colourways on offer — directly through the Knobula shop (https://www.knobula.com/shop), as well as via Knobula’s growing global network of resellers.

"Ambient Engine (macOS)
https://store.atnr.net/downloads/ambi...

A piece created with ‪@teenageengineering‬ OP-1 field, ‪@KOMAelektronik‬ Field Kit, norns shield, NTS-1, and Ambient Engine. It is minimal ambient built from dreamy synth tones, distortion, and fragmented chorus textures.

On the OP-1 field, a 44 step phrase runs in a loop using the ENDLESS sequencer. The output is connected to. ‪@strymon‬ blueSky with reverb applied.

On the norns shield, Graintopia is launched and an electric piano sound from the CP-88 is recorded with phaser applied and processed with granular synthesis. The output runs through ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ LOSSY with EQ and reverb. In the outro, packet loss effect is used to create a lo fi texture while the sound fades out.

In the Field Kit, radio tuner audio is sent to the ‪@KORG_INC‬ NTS-1 where delay, chorus, and reverb are applied. The return signal is sent again to an AUX channel to create feedback and distortion.

In Ambient Engine, two voice samples are loaded and played with randomized playback ranges. Filter, MicroLoop, delay, and reverb are adjusted during playback."

Audio Damage Introduces Descent Granulator



via Audio Damage

"Descent is a granular delay and reverb effect that transforms your audio into evolving, otherworldly textures. At its core, Descent captures incoming audio and breaks it into tiny grains—anywhere from a handful to dozens at once—then scatters them across time and pitch to create everything from subtle thickening and rhythmic delays to vast, frozen soundscapes and shimmering pitch-shifted clouds. With independent control over grain count, duration, overlap, and direction (forward, reverse, or random), combined with extensive randomization for pitch, pan, position, amplitude, and timing, Descent turns any sound source into a living, breathing texture. Whether you're adding shimmer to guitars, creating infinite sustain on synth pads, or designing abstract sonic environments, Descent delivers studio-quality granular processing with an intuitive interface and real-time FFT visualization.

Features

Granular engine with adjustable grain count (1–50 simultaneous grains), duration, overlap, and envelope shape for precise texture control.
Pitch shifting from -24 to +24 semitones with pitch quantization—lock transpositions to specific intervals for harmonically-correct shimmer, fifths, octaves, or any chromatic combination.
Six-axis randomization: independently randomize pitch, pan, position, amplitude, duration, and grain count for everything from subtle movement to complete chaos.
Direction control plays grains forward, reverse, or randomly mixed—perfect for tape-style effects, reverse swells, and glitchy textures.
High-feedback mode with diffusion control transforms delays into lush, reverb-like washes that never get harsh or out of control.
Tempo-sync or free-running modes let you lock grain timing to your session or let textures evolve organically.
Real-time FFT visualization shows your granular cloud evolving, making sound design intuitive and immediate.
35 factory presets covering shimmers, delays, reverbs, pitch effects, and experimental sound design to get you started instantly.
Cross-platform preset manager with XML-based presets compatible across all plugin formats and operating systems.


Sound Design Ideas

Add subtle depth with a few long grains and minimal randomization. Create rhythmic delays with short, quantized grains at high feedback. Build infinite sustain pads by freezing audio with high grain count and overlap. Design glitchy textures with extreme randomization and reverse grains. Craft shimmer effects by quantizing pitch shifts to octaves and fifths. Transform vocals into ethereal textures with diffusion and wide panning."

Inner City/Big Fun (Circuit Rhythm Instrumental)


video upload by Guinan

"Written in 1987 and released in 1988 Inner City’s ‘Big Fun’ was one of the first big crossover hits for House music internationally. Composed with minimal equipment and featuring Paris Grey’s iconic vocal, it set the template for many imitators and subsequent hits.

In the interview below Kevin Saunderson states that all he wanted to create was a track that could be played at the Paradise Garage, the birthplace of House. Nearly 40 years later it can still fill a dancefloor.

Much of the essence of the track comes down to the sampled sounds used. I’ve tried as far as possible to use the original sound sources for my samples and have recreated a version that fits the track into the Circuit Rhythm. What you hear (on both the instrumental and vocal versions) is recreated entirely on the Rhythm and recorded direct from the audio outs. See below for more details."

Rare Gear Demo: The Johnson Intonation Trainer (1966)

Note: links to listings are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
video upload by Instrument Attic

via this eBay listing

"The 1966 Johnson Intonation Trainer is a rare and intriguing instrument developed by the E.F. Johnson Company of Waseca, Minnesota. Originally designed to assess pitch-matching and pitch-discrimination abilities, this device has garnered attention for its unique features and potential applications in modern music production.  

One of the standout characteristics of the Johnson Intonation Trainer is its full polyphony, allowing all 37 keys to be played simultaneously. Each key is associated with its own oscillator, enabling microtonal adjustments and the exploration of unconventional scales and tunings. The instrument offers four distinct voicing options, ranging from basic sine waves to more complex, reedy tones. Additionally, the “Scale Selector” switch provides a choice between standard tempered tuning and a tunable mode, with individual “Tunable Scale Controls” corresponding to each note on the keyboard for precise pitch calibration.    

Housed in a robust fiberglass case, the Intonation Trainer features a built-in speaker, though it can also be connected to external amplifiers or mixers via standard 1/4” outputs. Some units include a vibrato effect, though functionality may vary between models. 

In contemporary settings, the Johnson Intonation Trainer has found a niche among experimental musicians and sound designers. Its ability to produce rich drones and facilitate microtonal exploration makes it a valuable tool for creating unique sonic textures. The instrument’s vintage analog circuitry imparts a distinctive warmth and character that is highly sought after in modern music production.

Due to limited production and the passage of time, functional units of the Johnson Intonation Trainer are exceedingly rare. Finding one in full working condition, complete with original documentation, is a remarkable discovery for collectors and enthusiasts alike. The scarcity of this instrument, combined with its unique capabilities, underscores its status as a treasured piece of audio history."


via this eBay listing

"Made in 1966 in Waseca, Minnesota by the E. F. Johnson Company. Originally designed as an ear training and intonation device, but in practice it is a unique fully polyphonic analog synthesizer with extensive tuning control. Very few were made, and surviving examples in this condition are vanishingly rare.

Thicken Kicks, Bass, and Synths with OCELOT Octaver


video upload by Fuse Audio Labs

Press release follows:



Fuse Audio Labs offers OCELOT Octaver as octave-down weight- and octave-up presence-delivering plugin with precision and ease

DUESSELDORF, GERMANY: truly analog-sounding plugins developer Fuse Audio Labs is proud to announce availability of OCELOT Octaver — offered up as an octave-down weight- and octave-up presence-delivering plugin with precision and ease, duly designed to add deep punch to kicks, extra growl to bass, or subtle enhancements to synth lines as a streamlined tool that reshapes source material in powerful, specific ways with zero latency and minimal CPU (Central Processing Unit) load — as of June 19…

OCELOT Octaver offers full control over the frequency focus of each octave via dedicated TUNE controls — unlike many traditional octave effects, enabling optimal low-end extension and top-end lift to be dialled in with precision as a result of this being so successfully implemented. Its Listen mode, meanwhile, aids in identifying the exact range being enhanced, enabling highly targeted and musical results.

Anchored around a state-of-the-art algorithm, OCELOT Octaver maintains signal integrity throughout. The plugin delivers consistent, phase-stable performances — even on fast transients or harmonically complex sources, contrasting wildly with the warbly, glitch-prone behaviour common to many octavers out there. The outcome is tight, clean octave content that blends naturally into the mix.

OCELOT Octaver’s detailed visual feedback supports confident decision-making at all times. There are separate level meters for each octave, the output signals providing clear level referencing, while the collapsable FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) view reveals the effect’s spectral footprint. Furthermore, octave solo options, smart key shortcuts, and global level control complete a workflow built for flexibility, precision, and speed.

“Octavers are often either too simplistic or too unpredictable to be truly useful in serious productions,” proffers Fuse Audio Labs CEO Reimund Dratwa. “We set out to change that, offering precision tuning, rock-solid tracking, and deep sound-shaping tools in a plugin that feels as creative as it is reliable,” he continues, concluding: “It’s all about inspiring results, without it getting in the way.”

OCELOT Octaver is available at a significantly discounted introductory promo price of only $29.00 USD until July 19, 2025 — rising thereafter to its regular price of $69.00 USD — directly from its dedicated webpage, which includes more in-depth information, here: https://fuseaudiolabs.com/ocelotoctaver_utmpr.html

Only 16 Samples?! This Minimal Eurorack Techno Slaps!


video upload by Electronisounds Audio

"I wanted to see what I could create using ONLY 16 samples.

This is a really basic setup with triggers and modulation only, no pitch sequencing.

This setup also does not allow for any velocity programming, every sound triggers at 100% max velocity - making it almost impossible to program build ups to help with the ebb and flow of the track.

I also did not have any room for riser or impact sounds which really help with keeping the intensity level a bit higher.

All things considered though, it's not a half bad track - just a little basic, perhaps... ;)

Stylophone CPM DS-2: Dark Atmospheric Sounds. No Talk Demo


video upload by Anton Anru

"Obsidian is a collection of 50 custom presets for the analog synthesizer Stylophone CPM DS-2. In this pack, you’ll find drones, textures, FXs, rhythmical patterns and sequences, and immersive soundscapes.
🔮 I was fascinated by exploring this drone machine, and in this collection, I share the results of that journey. My goal was to extract a broad variety of timbres— dark, noisy, vintage/retro, cold, dull, distorted, metallic, tense, as well as atonal, non-harmonic, FX-like, evolving, moving, and sweeping sounds.

📦 Get the soundset: https://antonanru.sellfy.store/p/cpm-...

📺 The soundset draws inspiration from sci-fi movies, soundtracks, dystopian narratives, urban landscapes, noise ambient albums, experimental modern art, and innovative sound design.

📻 Perfect for genres such as Dark, Noise, Ambient, Cinematic, IDM, Electronica, Dub, Deep, Techno, Industrial, Minimal, Garage, Experimental, and more. These timbres also work exceptionally well for movie soundtracks, games, apps, digital art, live sound art performances, and VR landscapes—anywhere a dark, atmospheric vibe is needed.

📓 The soundset is presented in a PDF document. Each page contains notes explaining how each patch works, which parameters to tweak during playback, and techniques to further develop the timbre during performance. By following these instructions and experimenting with the suggested settings, you’ll deepen your understanding of the synth and unlock its true potential.
🎧 Each patch also includes an audio example to help you grasp the intended sound.

💾 The collection additionally includes 24/41000 WAV samples. You can use these samples as they are, or feel free to resample, edit, and apply effects in your DAW, sampler, or granular synth. They provide versatile material for your sonic experimentation.

🖲 The Stylophone CPM DS-2 is an analog synthesizer highly sensitive to both settings and performance. I’ve done my best to document all parameters precisely; however, expect slight variations, as this is a truly alive, analog instrument. This is especially true for pitch, tuning, and FM settings—and in some cases, on the delay. The PITCH/RATE and LFO DEPTH knobs are extremely responsive— even a slight movement can shift the pitch significantly.
Many presets don’t adhere to a strict tonal center, so feel free to experiment with frequency settings. If you need to hit specific notes, I recommend using a tuner when adjusting pitch and FM."
