"I went to pull out my Korg ESX-1... and well... it's dead. Took it to a tech who also said it's dead. I'm going to try one more thing to see if I can get it working... we'll see. For now, I've thrown my Korg EMX-1 into the foray for drums since it can do mostly the same things. However, I forgot that the drum parts can't go through the filters. That's so dumb. What was Korg thinking? Makes no sense. Oh well. That's what I've got. I'd have actually expanded this track but couldn't because the next pattern in the EMX was something I didn't want to lose, so I just stuck to this one.

A desktop spring reverb unit featuring a built-in miniature spring.

You can use its high-quality, authentic spring to achieve a beautiful, classic reverb—or you can dive headfirst into the lush, vibrant resonance of a wildly oscillating spring, letting yourself drift and drown in its saturated wetness. It gets absolutely drenched.

And while nobody explicitly told you to shake it, smack it around, or slam it against the table... well, naturally, you’re going to do it. After all, there’s a real spring inside that actually shakes! It’s the thrill of the authentic.

Mix the clean-boosted signal (GAIN) with the spring-reverb-processed signal (REVERB), then adjust the overall output volume using the LEVEL control.

When the switch is in the down position, the signal bypasses the effect, passing directly from IN to OUT. The LED illuminates when the effect is active.

*Powered by a DC 9V power adapter (center-negative / Tip = -); sold separately.

Granular synthesis redefined

Break your samples apart to build new and unique sounds

Play any audio file like a synthesizer-in tune with your song

Explore a new world of sound design with audio as your raw material

A firestorm of granular power

Grainferno is an advanced granular instrument built around a new way of synthesizing sound from existing audio. Its next-gen grain engine breaks your samples into microscopic fragments and rebuilds them into entirely new textures.

From pristine tonal clouds to experimental digital noise, Grainferno turns your sample library into an endless source of playable inspiration.

Make a synth from any sound

Grainferno can generate grains at speeds fast enough to cross into the audio range. At these rates, grains stop behaving like texture and start acting like oscillators-turning any audio file into a playable synth voice.

Even at audio rates, traces of the original sonic character remain, giving you unique synth building blocks with the spectral fingerprint of your source audio.

Add modulation and grain-level shaping to build ready-to-use granular synth tones that stay in tune with your song like a traditional synth.

Nightverb 1.02 update

video upload by Erica Synths

"This update adds a compressor and a noise gate, making it possible to create a true gated‑reverb effect. Famous from the 80s productions, gated reverb is an audio processing technique that combines reverb with a noise gate to create punchy sounds while keeping the mix clean.

SISTERS - Ambient session #29 // Mannequins Three Sisters, Arbhar, Panharmonium, Subharmonicon

video upload by David Falcon

"First sounds with the Mannequins Sisters, such an interesting little module. In its core is a triple filter (Hi, Low and Band Pass) but it works great as an spectral mixer. I am slowly modulating the frequency cutoff so that the different sounds come and go progressively. Very little resonance added, it can be very resonant!

// Patch Notes //
Voice 1- Arbhar recording of my voice and ambient sounds with the internal microphone. High input of Sisters.
Voice 2 - Maths Tom sound into Rings. Center of Sisters.
Voice 3 - Panharmonium with a Random sequence from Pams into the Low input of Sisters.
These 3 voices go into the Xaoc Praga mixer, with Mimeophon and FX Aid in the sends. I am modulating the volume and panof
Voice 2 from Øchd and Pams, and the panning of Arbhar from Pams too. The mix goes through Qubit Mojave for the occasional reversed granular bleep.
Voice 4 - Subharmonicon through Blooper as a delay and Mercury 7 as Reverb.
Voice 5 - Low kick from DFAM


Recorded in a single stereo mix and mastered in Ableton."

Introducing the Temecula DSP DEEP/4

video uploads by TemeculaDSP

via Temecula DSP

DEEP/4 is a painstaking recreation of one of the most powerful multi-effects processors ever built. Every algorithm has been rebuilt at the instruction level from the original 24-bit DSP hardware, preserving the exact digital character of the algorithms that made these units legendary in studios worldwide.

All 43 original algorithms, mathematically verified against the original DSP architecture. No guesswork.

Features

Four Independent Effects Engines

The DEEP/4 is a powerhouse multi-effects processor featuring 43 fully programmable, high-fidelity algorithms including reverbs, chorus, flanging, delays, distortion, and pitch shifting. Operate it as a single massive effects system, a pair of stereo processors, or four entirely independent units. Its advanced routing matrix supports true serial, parallel, and feedback configurations to sculpt complex effect topologies that conventional units simply can't touch.
Flexible Multi-Unit Routing

Run all four units in series for massive effect chains, split them into parallel paths for layered textures, or use feedback routing to create evolving, self-modulating soundscapes. DEEP/4 provides independent routing control for each pair (A/B and C/D) plus a main bus link — supporting serial, parallel, and two feedback configurations with adjustable feedback amount. Use it as a single 4-unit processor, two independent stereo pairs, or four standalone effects.
43 Algorithms Across 7 Categories

From lush reverbs and complex multi-tap delays to pitch shifters, dynamics processors, and guitar amp simulations — every algorithm from the original hardware is here, rebuilt at the instruction level and fully programmable.

FREE SYNTH: OB-Xf (Oberheim OB-X Emulation) - No talking demo

video upload by ADL-MusicLab

"Hi, everyone!

OB-Xf is a continuation and modernization of the last open source version of OB-Xd by 2DaT and later discoDSP, bringing together several efforts going on in the audio space and combining them inside the Surge Synth Team infrastructure.

It is an amazing freely downloadable virtual synthesizer inspired by the venerable Oberheim OB-X.

The original Oberheim OB-X is one of the best analog poly-synths ever, used by Rush, Van Halen, Queen, Japan, Eurythmics, Ultravox, Tangerine Dream and many others.

It is a classic synthesizer with a timeless sound that continues to captivate musicians and producers alike. With its rich, full-bodied tones and expansive sound design capabilities, the OB-Xf is the perfect choice for those looking to add a vintage touch to their music.

The OB-Xf is a synthesizer that has been designed to recreate the sound and behavior of the Oberheim OB-X, OB-Xa and OB-8. However, the architecture of the original instruments was limited in some ways, so the OB-Xf includes a number of additional or altered features. Overall, the OB-Xf has been designed to produce a sound that is as good and as rich as the original OB-X.

Also, like many synths of the OB-X's generation, the OB-Xf has no internal effects so its sounds and textures can be greatly enhanced by the use of additional processing like chorus, reverb, delay, etc.

In this demo I will just let you hear what some amazing sound designers have made for this stunning synth simply by scrolling and playing some beautiful presets.

No additional effects or outboard processing here. What you listen is what you get!

YOUR NOVATION CIRCUIT TRACKS — REBORN AS A MODERN ACID MACHINE. FROM TIMELESS ACID HOUSE TO RAVE TECHNO

ACID transforms your Novation Circuit Tracks into a modern Acid machine, designed for genres such as Classic Acid, Acid House, Techno, Detroit Techno, Acid Techno, Hard Techno and Rave genres.

Roland TB-303 behaviour emulated — with a more modern sound, yet fully capable of delivering the classic tone. Modernised and expanded.

The pack includes 128 patches in total:
96 authentic 303-style Acid sounds plus 32 additional sounds, including a strong selection of polyphonic material such as chords and classic genre sounds to expand your productions beyond classic monophonic Acid lines.

All patches respond to velocity where appropriate, allowing expressive control and dynamic performances directly from the Circuit Tracks pads.

The 303-style patches are programmed to recreate the behaviour and response of the original machine — from timeless Acid House to harder Acid Techno and underground rave territories — featuring velocity-based accent behaviour, glide response, LFO modulation for evolving movement, and powerful modern distortion algorithms with delay and reverb send effects.

Completed with 64 drum samples (House, Techno, Hard Techno, 707, 808, 909 and more), ACID becomes a complete production toolkit — effectively turning Circuit Tracks into a purpose-built Acid production machine."

Crazy Chicken Modular SHRIMPY filter musical demonstration

video upload by Fedir Tkachov Music

"Musical exploration of new eurorack filter by Crazy Chicken Modular - SHRIMPY."

Shrimpy is a fully analog multimode voltage-controlled filter with three simultaneous audio outputs: low-pass, band-pass, and high-pass. It was designed with a strong focus on character rather than neutrality.

The resonance is voiced to emphasize midrange frequencies, giving the filter a present, expressive tone that cuts through a mix. At higher settings, it becomes vivid and assertive without collapsing into thinness.

At the heart of Shrimpy lies an unusual distortion chain integrated directly into the filter core. This distortion adds a pleasant crunch, enriching the sound. When pushed further, it can turn glitchy and rustling, introducing rough textures and unstable edges that make the filter feel alive. It should be noted that the distortion sound characteristics will depend on the Shrimpy settings and the input signal, since distortion occurs in the filter core itself, rather than at its input or output.

All parameters are fully voltage-controllable:
Cutoff frequency (with and without attenuator)
Resonance
Distortion amount

This makes Shrimpy a flexible yet opinionated sound processing tool, well suited for experimental patches, aggressive basses, textured leads, drones, and evolving soundscapes."

Vivarium

video upload by MIDERA

"Here's a new track. I wanted to bring the Tempest back in and use it again... but almost everything about it is just difficult to use... I tried to sequence the beats, but the OS would freeze when doing it that way, so I had to opt to manually change beats. Using the external sequencer kind of ruins half the fun of the Tempest, so I chose to do it all in the box, and it's great for that... but it's extremely hard to put a track together using the Tempest.

Gear used:
Cirklon 2 sequencer
DSI Tempest (drums)
Moog Minimoog (bass)
Roland SH-101 (Bass)
Sequential OB-6 (arp)
Roland JD-990 (initial melodic pad)
Oberheim Matrix 1000 (later pad sound)
Prophet 10 (secondary melody halfway through track)
NI Raum (Reverb)
DAW: Reaper
