168bpm

video upload by 3Echoflow

"168 BPM.

A hardware jam built around fast drums, broken rhythms and shifting electronic textures.

The Digitakt II drives the drums and sequencing, while the TEO-5 handles the synth parts. The Hologram Microcosm especially the Blocks algorithms keeps cutting, stretching and reshaping the beat, pushing it somewhere between drum & bass, breakbeat and glitchy electronic music.

Not really straight DnB, not really classic breaks either just 168 BPM and the sounds getting slightly out of control.

Recorded live in Ableton Live.

ElectroComp EML-101 VST from DenverSynthLabs

video upload by manmade madman

"Heres a short demo showing how analog this thing sounds.

Now available at store.denversynth.com"

ELECTROCOMP 101

A faithful emulation of a machine older than your dad's synth collection.
Four oscillators, a full patch bay, and a state-variable filter with an INPUT DRIVE stage that distorts inside its own resonant loop — the original's signature scream, modeled all the way down to the resonance itself breaking up under drive. Duophonic voice architecture, a MODULATOR that goes OFF → AM → RING, a sample & hold SAMPLER clocked off OSC 1, and enough patch points to make questionable routing decisions like it's still the Nixon administration. Patch it by hand for hours, or hit EZ to find something you wouldn't have thought of in a million years.

- Four oscillators — OSC 1 steps through triangle/saw/square/pulse/sine across HI/LO range, OSC 2–4 morph continuously via COLOR — feeding a duophonic voice architecture (KB1/KB2)

I didn't focus on simply switching algorithm - there are plenty of other reviews covering that - but instead delved into the finer details. I also demonstrated M-Wave’s new stereo effects, showing how they work with the FM-1 and sequences using my own custom presets for the synth.

Prophecy Emulator Profligacy by Joe Landers - The Prodigy's Synth as a Plugin? - Ableton VST3 Test

video upload by WAVEWORX-SOUNDS

Prophetic Steps at 3:06.

"This distorted acid lead is not a sample: Profligacy emulates the Korg Prophecy, the synth behind that Prodigy sound.I tested the plugin by Joe Landers in Ableton Live. CPU usage stays at just 5–8%.In this video: The Prodigy-style sounds, the automation behind them, and more presets.

🎹 What you'll get in this video:

• Profligacy: a free, open-source Korg Prophecy emulator
• CPU test in Ableton Live: 5–8% usage
• Prodigy-style acid leads and their automation
• More presets demos
• Honest limits: ROM required, alpha status, monophonic

⚠️ What you need to know:

• You need your own ROM of the original firmware. It is not included, and I don't provide or link it.
• The plugin is an early alpha version, so bugs are possible.

Roland D-50 vs D-110: Can You Hear the Difference?

video upload by Ian Dixon

"The Roland D-50 and Roland D-110 both come from Roland's late-80s Linear Arithmetic synthesis era, but do they actually sound the same? In this blind comparison I play similar D-50 and D-110 sounds side by side, including warm pads, Soundtrack, synth bells, electric pianos, synth brass, Fantasia/Fantasy style patches, and dual-layer sounds, then reveal which synth was which.

The D-50 is the classic performance synth behind so many iconic digital sounds, while the D-110 is the rackmount, multi-timbral workhorse built for MIDI studios. This test is about the real character of each instrument: the modulation, the shimmer, the effects, the PCM attack, and how close the D-110 can get to the D-50 in practice.

Free Roland D-50 Editor & Librarian – Edit Patches in Your Browser

video upload by Ian Dixon

"My free Roland D-50 Editor Librarian is a browser-based Web MIDI tool for backing up, browsing, importing and editing D-50 sounds without sending your patch data to the cloud.

In this video I show the full workflow from the YouTube transcript: connecting the D-50 over MIDI, enabling SysEx, reading the current edit buffer, opening a patch library, sending sounds to the synth, receiving a full bulk dump from the D-50, saving a library backup, importing SysEx banks, and editing classic D-50 patches such as Fantasia. The editor also makes it easier to work with the D-50's upper and lower tones, partials, PCM and synthesis structures, ring modulation, filter and amp envelopes, reverb, tuning and patch management.

The aim is to give the Roland D-50 a modern librarian/editor workflow: build a large library of card sounds and custom patches, search for sounds quickly, send patches to the edit buffer when recording, and avoid constantly swapping cards or managing small internal banks by hand.

Making a lo-fi track with just one cheap synth

video upload by vekoni

"I limited myself using only Stylophone Beat with Loopy Pro to make a chill lo-fi track. This little drum machine can also do neat bass sounds, which I've used to create a melody over the recorded beat.

I was usually using the Beat exactly as intended: punching in notes with its built-in sequencer (which is quantized), then jam over it with a synth or a guitar (so basically it was a groovy metronome for me). This time I wanted to try something new and use it exclusively to create something "off the grid", so I've played the Beat freely and looped it. With the use of some great effects I managed to elevate the sounds of this unit."

GODWIN CD2 - 1980s - The First Ever Demo Of Rare Apparatus

Note this appears to be the first post to feature the GODWIN CD2.

01:28 UPPER MANUAL : organ tabs and polyphonic presets
04:13 Solo Synth
05:07 Debunking the Mystery
06:19 Drum Machine
08:26 Three Quick Improvisations
09:47 Lower Manual : organ tabs, solo synth routing and arpeggiator
11:18 Musical Interlude
12:42 Bonus Musical Interlude

"A fresh video entry in the category 'Rare as a unicorn on stilts' - this mystifying auto-accompaniment machine organ and synth from Italys' Godwin is the only one we've ever encountered.

These type of sound generators were controlled by foot pedals and electronic accordions, generally in the hands of one-man-bands providing light entertainment in places where people congregated, imbibed alcoholic liquids and sometimes even got up and danced.
Remember those?
Ski resorts, beach clubs, dance halls, restaurants and hotels, for drinks or dinner.

The CD2 (we're not sure what the abbreviation actually stands for but we're guessing Computer Drums) is actually more than sequenced bass lines and chords though.
It's equipped with 2 separate preset- and organ sections and even a monophonic preset synth and the whole Shebang, unlike on many keyboards at the time, can be engaged simultaneously for massively wide and deep soundscapes.
All those sounds need lots of circuitry safely housed in a military grade flight case.
The GODWIN CD2 is well chunky, clocking in at a whopping 24 kilos.

The video explains most its specifications and includes a bit of history too but a summarisation would go something like this :

1. Sample Based Drum Machine with 16 Rhythms and 16 Drum Fills
2. Auto-Comp section with bass, chords and arpeggiator with 2 sounds
3. 2 x Organ Sections with 15 tabs total
4. 7 Polyphonic Preset Sounds
5. 7 Monophonic Synth Sounds
6. Various Chorus and Reverb Effects

Dreadbox Typhon - monophonic analog synthesizer with effects

video upload by Alfonse

"Music: "Python" (C) Copyright 2026 Alfonse Download the track here:



All sounds were generated by the Dreadbox Typhon, a monophonic analogue synth with 2 oscillators and stereo digital effects. There are conveniently sized knobs for a bunch of the key analogue parameters, including filter cutoff and resonance, and a central knob that allows you to morph between different waveform variations. Other parameters, including the effects, are adjustable using sliders on the right of the box.

NINE INCH NAILS - Closer (Sequential PRO 3 & Elektron Digitakt)

video upload by nicola neeco

"After listening the Nine Inch Noize version of Closer, I wanted to recreate one of my favorite sounds from the original track.
On the Sequential Pro 3, I designed a synth stab patch inspired by the iconic riff of this track from The Downward Spiral.
For the drums, I used the Elektron Digitakt, building a similar industrial groove using samples from my own drum library."

"legendary Roland JD-800! 🎹✨

In this sound demo, I’m playing several of my favorite sounds on this beautiful early-90s synthesizer, showcasing the unmistakable character and atmosphere of the Roland JD-800.

Released in 1991, the Roland JD-800 quickly became one of the most iconic digital synthesizers of its era. With its hands-on controls, powerful PCM sounds and unmistakable 90s character, it remains a favorite among synth enthusiasts, musicians and producers today.

In this video, you’ll hear the JD-800 in action through a selection of classic sounds that I personally love. No complicated technical breakdown — just the beautiful sound of this legendary synthesizer.
