Ambient jam | NDLR, Artemis, Deckard's Dream, Peak, Prophet Rev2, Polymoon, Slöer

"Please support my work on Patreon: / jayhosking
A song performed live on the table with four great polysynths.

It felt like the right time of year to get a bunch of nice synths on the table and just explore. To that end, I connected the Dreadbox Artemis (bass), Sequential Prophet Rev2 (square arp motif), Novation Peak (pad), and Black Corporation Deckard's Dream (melodic motif) to the Conductive Labs NDLR and just had fun. The Artemis and Peak have pretty great built-in effects, but the Deckard's and Rev2 needed some help, so I added the Meris Polymoon to the Rev2 and the Walrus Slöer to the Deckard's.

This was my first time using the new hardware iteration of the NDLR — to be transparent, Conductive Labs sent it over for free — but it was a real step up in terms of the quality of the encoders. And it had been a couple of years since I had played with the Peak, but Novation had offered to send it over to explore, so I said yes to that as well. I previously had a Peak and had missed its effects (especially reverb) and filter.

Once the NDLR is connected and routed to the right MIDI channels, the musical exploration process is extremely fast. I will admit that I usually produce a certain kind of result with the NDLR, and I don't always want that kind of song. But as a palate cleanser, as a way to tap into very fast inspiration, I love putting it on the table and just getting musical results.

Overall, a nice way to end a good year. Thanks for listening.

Performed and recorded live, with EQ, compression, and limiting on the master.

Cinefreak 📽️ (Arturia Minifreak ; Conductive Labs NDLR Sequencer) #OneSynthOnly

video upload by 2-Minute Warning

"My first video with the Arturia Minifreak! What and amazing and versatile synth! Was really impressed of how it sounds and all the features it has in such a small form factor 🤩

As usual, I recorded this jam only a couple of hours after getting the Minifreak, it's really very easy to get started with!

However it did take me a lot of time to record all the parts in multitrack (though it is a OneSynthOnly jam), mix the audio and edit the video, really hope you'll enjoy it ☺️

Here's how I proceeded:
I first "played" the NDLR sequencer and recorded the MIDI notes on 4 different tracks for the BASS (= DRONE track on the NDLR), PADS, MOTIF-1 and MOTIF-2.

Then I sent the MIDI notes from each track to the Minifreak and tweaked the knobs etc. in real-time (except for the LEAD part which I played throughout in real-time).

** Hardware used **

// BASS, PADS, MOTIF-1, MOTIF-2, LEAD
Arturia Minifreak (polyphonic hybrid keyboard with dual digital sound engines and analog filters)

// SEQUENCER
Conductive Labs NDLR (MIDI Four-track, Sequenced Arpeggiator, Chord and Drone Player)"

"A pre-owned Conductive Labs NDLR in good condition. It comes with original packaging and accessories.

Manufacturer's description
A MIDI Four-track, Sequenced Arpeggiator, Chord and Drone Player

We’ve turned complex music theory into a killer synthesizer jamming MIDI controller. With four parts that can play up to 8 synths, you can make fantastic electronic music, such as soundscapes, electronica, ambient, electro, or techno to name a few. Whether noodling in your music space after work or jamming with friends, The NDLR can take your music to amazing places!

Press one of the seven chord buttons, and the two arpeggiators and drone follow the chord notes while your polyphonic synth sings with pads.

There are start and stop buttons for each of the four parts, and a button to start/stop all parts. And there’s a “panic” button to stop all MIDI notes.

Paradise 😇 (Moog Minitaur // Waldorf Streichfett // Roland S1 // Volca Beats // Mininova // NDLR)

video upload by 2-Minute Warning

"An unexpected impromptu performance with the same setup as my previous video, hope you'll enjoy it! ❤️

The NDLR is sequencing with:
Drone track: the Moog Minitaur (BASS)
Pad track: the Waldorf Streichfett (PADS)
Motif-1 track: the Roland S1 (ARP)
Motif-2 track: the Roland S1 (ARP)

The DRUMS are coming from the Korg Volca Beats and the LEAD is being played in real-time on the Novation Mininova.

00:00 Intro
01:07 Improvised Solo
02:40 Bridge
03:14 Outro

A couple of tricks I used here:

I used the STUTTER EFFECT of the Volca Beats as a delay here on only one voice (not the master bus). First it's on the Open Hi-Hat and then swapped to the Closed Hi-Hat (creating a sixteenth note rhythm without changing pattern)

I'm using one of the NDLR's LFO (Square wave) to modulate the octave of the PADS.

I've used the hidden CHORUS of the S-1 synth to create the wide ARP 😉"

Conductive Labs Announces Release 3 for The NDLR Rev2

via Conductive Labs

New Motif, Rhythm and Modulation Features for The NDLR Rev2 are here!

Conductive Labs is proud to announce Release 3 firmware for The NDLR Rev2. This significant feature update enables deeper rhythmic and melodic exploration for its flagship MIDI Groove Box. The Update is available now at ConductiveLabs.com along with an updated User Manual.

Release 3 unlocks advanced creative tools for live performance and studio production, including:

● Euclidean Rhythm Mode for the Motif Rhythm Editor – Users can now generate rhythms using the Euclidean Algorithm by setting the length (4-32), number of beats and rotation (offset), ideal for complex and world beat style rhythms and evolving patterns.
● Motif Pattern Step Modulation – Enables dynamic modulation of individual steps in a motif pattern, perfect for creating evolving basslines and more varied melodic sequences.
● Perlin Noise Pattern Generator – Creates organic, evolving note patterns for The NDLR’s two Motif parts.
● Motif Gate Length Control – Offers fine-tuned control over gate length for each motif part.
● Global Patch Save Slots Increased from 8 to 20 – More onboard storage devoted to global patches and settings.
● New Mod Matrix Destinations – Expanded modulation capabilities for Perlin Noise parameters, Motif Gate, PAD Strum, Spread and more.
● Save/Load Perlin Noise Pattern Generator Parameters – In addition to saving in global patches, users can now store and recall custom Perlin Noise settings separately.
● Drone part note velocity is now configurable.
● Additional MIDI CCs for new features.
● And various usability and MIDI synchronization enhancements. See the updated User Manual in the downloads section.

Released in September 2023, The NDLR Rev2 is easily identifiable by its signature red powder-coated base and continues to be a favorite among synth enthusiasts and modular synthesists for its deep integration of rhythm, harmony, and modulation.
The NDLR Rev2 is available now at ConductiveLabs.com and through select music equipment retailers worldwide. Release 3 firmware is a free update for all The NDLR Rev2 owners, and those who participated in the NDLR Rev1 upgrade kit crowdfunding. If you missed the crowdfunding, a limited number of upgrade kits will be made available at ConductiveLabs.com in September 2025.


What is The NDLR?
The NDLR (pronounced “The Noodler”) is a multi-part, polyphonic, sequenced arpeggiator. Or it could be described as an Interval Sequencer MIDI Groove Box, if you like. Programming a traditional sequencer gets you a melody, but when it comes to changing the Key or Chord it becomes a challenging production. The NDLR solves this problem by playing all of the parts out of a common note pool, so when you change the Chord all the parts change with it. Little effort, big results! Get your synths playing in time, in key and make great electronic music without being a master at the keyboard.

"This is one of my most personal jams, hope you'll enjoy it 🖤

The NDLR is sequencing with:
Track 1: the Moog Minitaur (BASS)
Track 2: the Waldorf Streichfett (STRINGS)
Track 3: the Waldorf Streichfett (PLUCKS)
Track 4: the Roland S1 (ARP)

The DRUMS are coming from the Korg Volca Beats and the LEAD is being played in real-time on the Novation Mininova.

A couple of tricks I used here:
The Waldorf Streichfett has 2 engines (STRINGS + SOLO), which can be played independently if needed. This is what I did here, where Track 3 of the NDLR is sequencing the SOLO engine, and Track 2 the STRINGS engine.

I'm using one of the NDLR's LFO (Random wave) to modulate (by sending CC) the TONE parameter of the Waldorf Streichfett SOLO engine.

I've used a second LFO on the NDLR to modulate of the parameter the octave parameter of Track 1 (called the DRONE track on the NDLR) which is sequencing the Minitaur, hence playing from time to time a note with an octave higher 😉"
