Behringer's Polyeight is an eight-voice analog synthesizer that re-creates the era-defining sound of the Polysix. The 2044 low pass filter gave that sound its character and sits at the center of the Polyeight's pure analog signal path. Positive or negative envelope control shapes the filter to create sounds from tight plucks to long blooms. Eight discrete VCOs can be played in dense polyphony for rich harmonies or locked in unison for powerful leads and basslines. Chorus, phaser, and ensemble effects are integrated into the signal path to provide rich textures for strings and pads. Program complex voicings into chord memory and trigger them from a single note. For players chasing the classic Polysix sound, the Behringer Polyeight delivers with more voices and powerful performance features.

Whispers From The Dark | Dark Ambient Soundscape

video upload by The Pedalboard Orchestra

"Whispers From The Dark

A dark ambient soundscape built around the Synthux Academy Touch 2 (Bass Firmware).

A latched arpeggio from Touch 2 is looped in Pattern Keeper and slowed down and pitched down, creating a dark, mysterious drone underneath. The same arpeggio continues at regular speed, shaped in real time with the filter and modulators of Touch 2, creating an undulating melody of ever-changing rhythmic synth sounds.

The stereo signal then passes through Kinotone Ribbons, Chase Bliss Lossy, Alexander Pedals Forget Me Not and Eventide Space.

Curves & Membranes 1.5 - New filters, expanded orbital modulators + more for the Beizer-wave synth

video upload by Unusable Engineering

"Curves & Membranes 1.5.0 adds two new filter modes, new orbital modulation patterns and polyphonic glide to the 'everything is visual' bezier waveform synthesizer for macOS and Windows.

In the first part of this video, I run a simple sequence from the Arturia Keystep and play around with some of the new features, mainly the new filter modes on a patch with some twisted and eased orbital modulators.In the middle part I play it in 4 voice paraphonic mode to show off internal overdrive.

In the end I run the first sequence again.

Regarding the two new filter modes:
The new Filter Bank mode has 32 bands spaced in minor thirds, with per-band feedback and drive. All three filter points shape the bank, so you can move several resonant regions around at once. The new Pressure mode takes a different approach: each band opens in response to the signal going into it, with controls for sensitivity, recovery and drive. The original Membrane filter is still there too.

A bit on the orbs:
Every orbital modulator now has Easing and Twist. Easing speeds up and slows down different parts of the movement while keeping the overall cycle time. Twist turns the circular path into a horizontal or vertical figure-eight. Both work with ellipse, rotation and the envelope-style half-turns.

Beijing Modular 10/26/26 Videos

video uploads by sonicstate

Latest videos for the day. See the Modular Commune label for more.

Playlist:

1. Heisenberg Zynthian Workstation- Beijing Modular 26

Jarrod from Heisenberg told us about the OFAI Music Workstation and a handmade wooden MIDI controller.

The workstation is a custom small Linux-based unit with audio outputs and MIDI. It runs open-source software from the Zynthian platform, with additional presets made by Jarrod. The hardware is a a custom development by the team, and it supports MIDI synths, plug-ins and multi-timbral sequencing.

The wooden controller works as a generic control surface and is not for sale, more just as a DIY project by Jarrod. Parameters are assigned with MIDI Learn, so knobs and buttons can control selected synth or effect parameters. In the demo, a USB MIDI cable connects the controller to the workstation. The system can run drums, hi-hats and riffs on separate tracks, and selecting a track gives access to further parameters. A MIDI latch function holds notes while parameters are adjusted.

The OFAI Workstation is sold in China for 3,700 RMB. The wooden controller is handmade and is not for sale. More Info: https://zynthian.org

2. 30k - Nyoka - Magnetic Field Noise Generator - Beijing Modular 26

Yang from 30K told us about their NYOKA Magnetic Field Noise Generator, a small experimental sound device that turns electromagnetic interference into audio control signals.

The unit senses magnetic field signals and uses them to modulate an internal oscillator. It can also be played by touch, with fingers routing signals to different points in the circuit. The device includes multiple switches for changing operating modes, selecting oscillator or inductor output, choosing where the magnetic field signal routes, and altering routing inside the oscillator.

The unit runs from USB-C power and outputs audio via a 3.5mm TRS jack. It responds strongly to nearby power sources, with different electrical equipment producing different responses. Yang also mentioned that it works well with external reverb and delay.

The device is available for 229 RMB.
He also showed a magnetic field amplifier with 1000x gain and a small Meow Box synthesizer that produces cat sounds - I mean, why not?

3. 203 Systems - Mystrix 2 MPE Grid, Cardenza - tiny hackable music computer- Beijing Modular 26

Nengzhuo Cai from 203 Systems had some pretty cool units to show, first up is about Mystrix 2, a wireless MPE grid controller, and two compact music devices. Mystrix 2 is the latest generation and runs its own OS, so applications can be installed directly on the hardware without a computer.

Mystrix 2 acts as a MIDI and control-data source. It includes MPE keyboard apps, chord, arpeggiator, scale and custom scale tools, split-screen operation, an eight-track sequencer, clip mode and a mixer. The sequencer supports 16 patterns with 16 steps. It has three full-feature USB-C ports for charging, computer connection or accessory boxes, plus CV and MIDI adapters. A hidden side touch slider supports functions such as strumming.

Next up is *Cardenza, *a $20 open-source ESP32 S3 music computer with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5, microphone, SD card, app installation and web coding support. You can run your own programs on it, and even browse the web (assuming you can code your own browser!)

Then the NULLperator is a tiny eight-track tracker with audio I/O, TRS MIDI I/O, microphone, speaker and battery. Mystrix 2 is expected for Kickstarter at around $500, while NULLperator is expected around $300, with free iOS and Android apps available.

4. SPI1: Mini Multi-function Game-style Modules - Beijing Modular 26

We spoke to Lei and the team behind *SPI1*, a compact modular music workstation built around a “micro universe” concept. They explained that the project uses a game-like interface for creating music, with visual design, touch controls and interchangeable hardware modules forming part of the workflow. SPI1 features a square-format touch bar with 12 control keys. Projects can start from blank templates or preset styles, and the system supports user-made templates. The team plans to release an SDK for third-party development, covering modules and internal software. The instrument includes a DSP synth system where timbres are organised as “plants”, with scale selection, generative music modes and four-channel pattern recording. A map-style interface contains sound machines, including chord and wave-based devices. External interaction comes through probes for wind, magnetic signals, audio signals and other inputs. The modular hardware includes interfaces such as joystick, DJ turntable, drum pad, fader and marble-based controllers. An audio sequencer module can trigger external devices and lights. SPI1 is currently a prototype, with a Kickstarter planned for spring next year. Pricing has not yet been confirmed.

5. Erica Synths: Graphic Sequencer - Beijing Modular 26

Ģirts from Erica Synths gave us a look at the Graphic Sequencer a new Eurorack module currently in production.

The Graphic Sequencer is a compact hub for sequencing and modulation. It has 10 steps (with a planned 16-step expander) plus CV and gate outputs and three modulation outputs. Those outputs support envelopes, delay-based envelope types, user-drawn multistage envelopes, LFOs, random walk, Euclidean sequencing and chord CV duties across multiple oscillators.

Magic mode changes an existing sequence in real time, with controls for note variation, octaves, density, gates and slides. Returning from that mode clears the edit buffer. The Euclidean section works with an 8-channel expander, and hits can be added manually with the encoder.

The module is expected in about a month, priced around €300.

6. Theresyn - Beijing Modular 26

We spoke to Nori about Theresyn, a handmade fully analogue theremin synthesizer. He explained that it uses the familiar theremin approach, with the left hand controlling amplitude and the right hand controlling pitch, but adds extra control and acoustic elements.

Xin then demo'd the pressure-sensitive touch pad, which controls oscillator amplitude and can also trigger an ADSR envelope. Theresyn has two oscillators, with mixing between the theremin voice and an internal oscillator. Antenna tracking can be set to none, partial or full, allowing one oscillator to act as a drone or follow the pitch hand.

The synth also includes selectable waveforms, filter modes including low-pass, resonance, pitch-to-filter tracking and amplitude modulation of the cutoff. Its speaker system includes a front loudspeaker and rear resonating strings, with a pickup for the string output. There is no pitch quantizer, and pitch remains continuous. The pitch range can be tuned to the player's body capacitance.

Theresyn is handmade, available to order from the website, and the full version with bag costs €3,000.

More Info: https://theresyn.com/

7. PUFF Eurorack Breath Controller - Beijing Modular 26

We spoke to the team behind Puff V3 about the Puff breath controller project, which began in 2024. They explained that the current wired V2 has the same core functions as the planned V3, while the V3 moves to wireless operation.

Puff converts breath into control voltage for modular systems and synthesizers. It can control pitch, cutoff, resonance and other modulation destinations, depending on the patch. The system supports up to four CV outputs and one MIDI output. USB-C connects to a computer or laptop for MIDI, so it can control software and hardware at the same time.

The controller is held in the mouth, leaving both hands free for instruments such as guitar or piano. The team also discussed a future mouth ring or bite control for sustain-style input. The prototype is built, with release planned for June next year, and the project launches on Kickstarter.

The Crow Hill Company Introduces FOREST HARPS Incantatory Invention

Baikonur 4: a virtual instrument sampled from a SOMA Lyra-8

video upload by Fangtooth Instruments

"Baikonur 4 is a cinematic virtual instrument built from deep-sampled recordings of the Soma Lyra-8 — an analog synthesizer known for its unpredictable, organic character. Available now as VST3/AU.

🔗 Get it here: https://fangtoothinstruments.com

Baikonur 4 features multiple mic positions, a built-in arpeggiator, and a full effects chain — covering everything from dark atmospheric drones to percussive textures and alien tonalities. Designed for film, game, and horror scoring"

Baikonur 4 is a sample-based synthesizer built from the sound of the SOMA Lyra-8™, a celebrated analog drone instrument. Rather than model it, Baikonur 4 captures its character through multi-channel recording and lets you reshape it with modulation, filtering and effects.

What makes the instrument distinctive is how each sound was recorded: every source was captured through four separate “mic” channels, each with its own tone, which you blend to taste on the main page.

Main — The direct signal, run through analog EQ, analog saturation and transformers for weight and color.
Room — The signal sent through a Fender Princeton Reverb amplifier and then a Universal Audio OX amp top box with the “Room” control fully raised — the source of the channel’s name.
Cab L / Cab R — Two different speaker-cabinet impulse responses, each captured in a different room and without the amplifier used on the Room channel — adding width and a sense of space.

This is the weirdest pedal he owns … and He loves it! // The Square from NWS [PEDALS & PATCHES]

video upload by DivKid

"Whether its turning simple mono synths into sounding like music easels, taking a basic polysynth and making it sound like a complex oscillator or just generally continuing to be a weird and wonderful effect for synths ... I'm pretty fascinating with this one. I'd love to hear your thoughts on it.

The Square // https://nicksworldofsynthesizers.co.u...
Check out Nick’s inventions // https://nicksworldofsynthesizers.co.uk"

THE SQUARE

The Square ring modulator pedal, Boutique, Hand Made & Designed By Me.

Intro

The Square pedal is simply a ring modulator that takes the input signal and sends it to both inputs of the ring modulator at the same time.

Despite it's simplicity, The Square is capable of producing a wide variety of sounds depending on what you put into it.

Each pedal is unique and made by hand, from the hand bent metal enclosure to the component choices and tolerances. Imperfections are considered part of the aesthetic appeal both sonically and physically.

To understand what the pedal is and all the magical things it can do for your musical productions, we strongly recommend watching the video from DivKid below.

"Pattern Keeper Looping with Lo-Fi Modulation

A guitar melody is sent through the JHS Notaklön and Walrus Audio ACS1 (Fullerton Amp) and loop-recorded with the Native Audio Pattern Keeper.

From there, the loop runs in stereo through the lo-fi modulation of the Kinotone Ribbons and Chase Bliss Lossy, with the Alexander Pedals Forget Me Not adding delay before the signal reaches the Eventide Space (ModEchoVerb algorithm).

I'm playing with the filter on the Pattern Keeper, reversing the loop and slowing down the speed/pitch to create darker vibes, real time modulated with the Chase Bliss Lossy.

Synthesizers.com Announces the Q215 DIGITAL REVERB

via Synthesizers.com

Note: Synthesizers.com is happy to announce they are showing off their new design this weekend at the Brooklyn Synth EXPO, October 17-18, 2026.

COMING SOON -- NOW AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ORDER ONLY

The Q215 DIGITAL REVERB from Synthesizers.com.

We are proud to announce that we have added a multi-mode STEREO reverb to our lineup. Featuring detailed reverbs created to work well within a modular setup, this module is sure to add new sounds and textures to your case that are sure to inspire you.

With multiple reverb algorithms, the Q215 can easily fill the role of everything from a subtle spatial enhancer to an intense sonic shaper -- especially if you add modulation to any of the four CV inputs. You may find yourself in some decidedly abstract territory, creating dream-like soundscapes or ambient dub workouts with just a twist of a knob.

We have chosen ease of use over pages of menus. Simply use the Mode button to select the next algorithm. Some are more natural while others are decidedly synthetic.

The Q215 features a wide range of reverb styles, some of which even include period accurate sample rate adjustments to capture the proper tone. (The two Abstract Large Hall algorithms are decidedly dark and gritty -- part of that darkness comes from the 32Khz sample rate for those modes.)

The module puts out a STEREO SIGNAL (though it still sounds great in mono) from a mono input or a stereo input. The module will process all the usual +/-5V signals but can also work with line level signals as well, such as drum machines and synthesizers. The built in GAIN control allows the user to adjust the headroom and can be pushed into slight clipping if so desired.

Learn to creatively use dynamics processing in Eurorack // DYN by Timo Rozendal & Surreal Machines

video upload by DivKid

"In this video we'll be exploring dynamics processing, learning about functions that are typically a music production and studio tool and applying them to Eurorack sound shaping and getting creative within a modular environment.

Dyn is a new module from Timo Rozendal made in collaboration with Surreal Machines with DSP based on their plug in 'Crack'. It's a 14HP stereo noise gate, transient designer, maximizer, limiter and clipper. There's lots of hands on control and easy to assign CV control too."

via Perfect Circuit

Timo Rozendal Dyn
Dyn from Timo Rozendal is a stereo transient shaper that's exceptional at creating hard hitting percussion or dialing back overly aggressive transients in your mix. It includes a suite of dynamics processing tools based on Surreal Machine's Crack plugin and optimized for drum sounds. A transient shaper is a specialized kind of limiter with an ultra fast attack stage envelope that works primarily on hard spikes in volume such as the initial impact of a stick hitting a drum.The large attack and sustain knobs provide the core parameter adjustments on Dyn. Lower the attack time to create sharp hits that cut through the mix, or increase it to smooth out harsh transitions. Adjust sustain to control the body of the hit post-transient, either making it fuller or tighter. Use the noise gate to reduce the level of quieter sounds between hits, crank the maximizer to push the overall level, and adjust the limiter to set the peak. Blend in your dry signal with the processed sound for parallel processing of your sounds. At the end of the chain, a clipper controls the final output level. Route an external CV source to any of the main parameters to add additional automation. Dyn from Timo Rozendal perfectly pairs with your drum voices or samples, particularly when you need them to stand out in the mix.

Liminal Space 2 RC7: Tape, Fuzz & Beautiful New Reverb Spaces

video upload by Keith Crosley

"Liminal Space 2 RC7 now has tape saturation, tape shimmer, fuzz, robot speech, and new Authentic Soundware-inspired spaces. Your old pal Keith went in to update his haunted digital reverb synth and apparently forgot where the brakes were. So grab your headphones: we're going from beautiful studio strings to a cassette deck that probably shouldn't be allowed to drive!

First, Space Age Strings from Authentic Soundware meets four new reverb banks evolved from Jared Hunter's impulse responses, used with his permission. We explore Color EQ and Decay Color, compare Eastside Church with its source IR, and squeeze into the tiny Relic Room. These are algorithmic reverbs inspired by measured spaces; the IRs aren't playing inside the plugin.

Then things get gloriously unreasonable. The new GRIT module brings warmth, crunch, wavefolding, bitcrushing, shoegaze fuzz, varispeed tape, and Speak & Spell-style speech processing. We build tape shimmer, stereo wow and flutter, and a weird reverse-tape bloom. How many ways can you bend pitch in a reverb? Apparently, ALL OF THEM.

We also cover the new "Clean" tank filtering, Vulture 224 vintage flavor, spring/plate Material, Follow-driven reverb ducking, Lexitone Split Decay, and a quick return to True Shimmer. Plus a "Skippy Save" shortcut for your own wonderfully questionable patches. Woot!

rare birds: MXR Model 113 Digital Delay

video upload by ohm-studi-ohm

"When I first heard of this 1976 digital delay I excepted a lo-fi, harsh and dark delay. I was so wrong... This unit sounds surprisingly warm and clean for a digital fx of that era. Of course if you select the 2.5 Khz preset (which gives you up to 1280 ms of delay if the unit has 4 memory modules like this one) it's very lo-fi. But up to the 10khz preset its really clean.
And I didn't expected it to be such a great modulation fx. You can get anything from chorus, phaser, flanger to ring modulation.
Delay signal can be phase reversed by pulling the mix knob, which is what you want for modulation fx, and the sweep frequency also has 2 modes you select by pullling the knob.
The delay time can be externally adjusted, by mean of CV signal or a simple expression pedal. The later works great with guitar when the unit is in phasing/flanging settings, as the pedal acts like a kind of wah pedal. Here are some examples of what you can achieve with this unit. Though I didn't demo it, this delay sounds also great on keyboards.
