CREATURE - Prophet 10 (Brutal Dark Ambient synth music)

video upload by Kevin Rix

"One take performance on a Prophet 10. Pedals used include Chase Bliss Onward, Soma Cosmos, and Noise Engineering Batverb. Also used a Dark Star sequencer for the middle sections.

This world we live in is becoming increasingly more complicated and is about to see a huge shift with the arrival of AI. I want this channel to showcase raw performances and celebrate the human aspect of art and music.

This is an anti-AI channel. Everything is composed and performed by me with no editing. Just raw performances created in the moment."

Three Ambient Sketches (A, B & C) | Which One Resonates With You?

video upload by The Pedalboard Orchestra

"I recently spent an evening exploring the Chompi Club running the Tempo firmware together with a few of my favorite effects pedals and recorded these three ambient sketches.

Rather than choosing one myself, I thought it would be interesting to share all three and hear your impressions.
Which sketch resonates with you the most: A, B, or C?
I'd love to know not only your favorite, but also why it connects with you.

Sundown Synthesis (Chase Bliss Big Time, Kinotone Sparks, Koma Chromaplane)

video upload by Matt Lowery

"This was an instagram post that turned out to be a pretty darn good exploration of Chromaplane through Sparks and Big Time, so I'm tossing it on Youtube for those of you who are on the hunt for more Big Time audio examples. It’s admittedly busy sonically, but sometimes I just love making a big pot of sonic gumbo.

The modular stuff is a series of homegrown samples being processed by Multigrain, Arbhar, and Morphagene.

If you like these kinds of sounds, grab a copy of my sample pack Bokeh-- it's loaded with sounds from this universe that you can use in your music.

Chompi + Chase Bliss Onward | A Spontaneous Ambient Sketch

video upload by The Pedalboard Orchestra

"While testing my new KMA Audio Machines headphone amplifier, I stumbled upon this little musical moment.

Chompi Club runs a simple sequence into the Chase Bliss Onward, then through a parallel reverb setup with the EarthQuaker Devices Afterneath and Chase Bliss Dark World.

My wife heard it and suggested I record it before it disappeared, so this is a completely spontaneous one-take recording captured with a Zoom recorder while I was simultaneously holding a phone camera and playing the instruments.
Sometimes the unplanned moments are worth keeping."

UDO Super 6 & Chase Bliss Gen Loss Lofi Jam

video upload by the nightwater

"Fun jam using the Elektron Analog Keys to sequence the UDO Super 6. Some effects from the Chase Bliss Gen Loss and the Strymon Bigsky Mx. Drums are the Dave Smith Tempest and bass is the Moog Mother 32."

#Superbooth: Chase Bliss Big Time | stereo delay vintage sound

video upload by CatSynth TV

"We are treated to a demo of Big Time, a beautiful-sounding new stereo delay pedal from Chase Bliss. Big Time recreates the vintage sound of early 80s echoes and delays, including both the warm sounds and the crunchier flaws that make effects units of that era distinctive. Big Time also includes modern features like motorized, MIDI-controllable faders."

Chase Bliss Introduces Big Time – Analog/Digital Delay

video upload by chase bliss

"Big Time revisits the mixed-up circuitry of rackmount echoes from the early 80s, where advanced analog engineering was used to prop up crude digital systems. What would happen if that hybrid circuitry were pushed to its extremes? Big Time is our answer, stuffed with misbiased modulations, saturating loops, and sequenced echoes.

Time to live large."

Robo-Xylophone - Ambient (Norns Shield (BLOOM)/Chase Bliss MOOD MKII)

video upload by Kuro Kasetto

"A xylophone played using 5 solenoids that strike the bars mechanically. Each solenoid is controlled via MIDI with an Arduino.
The MIDI notes are generated by the Bloom script running on a Norns Shield, creating constantly changing patterns.
The audio is processed in real time through a Chase Bliss MOOD MKII pedal for added texture and atmosphere."

Melancholia — 6 BPM Ambient Meditation (Typhon + Parting)

video upload by The Pedalboard Orchestra

"Melancholia is a slow and meditative ambient journey built around an extremely reduced 6 BPM sequence. Subtle modulations, evolving textures and deep reverbs create a drifting, almost timeless atmosphere. Use headphones for full stereo immersion and take your time.

Created with the Dreadbox Typhon and a small chain of ambient effects.

Signal chain (stereo):
Typhon → Chase Bliss Lossy → OBNE Black Fountain Stereo → Chase Bliss Mood Mk II → OBNE Parting (Purr-Ting) → AC Noises Ricorda

Pluto's Moons (Album) by The Pedalboard Orchestra

Also see The Pedalboard Orchestra's demos of Modern Sounds Pluto Semimodular Synthesizer

"This album presents ten extended ambient soundscapes (approx. 150 minutes total), composed and recorded using the Modern Sounds Pluto semimodular synthesizer as the sole sound source. Pluto’s architecture—featuring five primary modulation engines named after Pluto’s moons (Charon, Styx, Nix, Kerberos and Hydra)—served as both a structural and conceptual framework during production.
Each track explores different interactions between these modulators, ranging from FM-based timbral shifts to complex CV-driven rhythmic deviations and slow-evolving modulation cycles.

Across the sessions, the wider effects chain underwent several iterations, incorporating various pedals for filtering, spatial processing, and granular-style textural shaping. However, two components remained consistent throughout:

Modern Sounds Pluto (core synthesis + modulation)

Eventide Space (primary reverb stage, used for long-tail ambient diffusion, shimmer variants, and modulated plate algorithms)

All material was captured as real-time, single-track, one-take recordings, with no overdubs or post-layering. Performance control relied heavily on Pluto’s internal modulation matrix, manual parameter riding, and dynamic interaction between the... more

released March 7, 2025

Many thanks to the brilliant creators of synthesizers and effects pedals -
especially the teams at Modern Sounds, Chase Bliss, Old Blood Noise Endeavors, and Eventide Audio.
Without their innovations, this album would not have been possible.

Modern Sounds Pluto - Ambient Soundscapes

video uploads by The Pedalboard Orchestra

"A collection of long ambient tracks based on the Modern Sounds Pluto Semimodular Synthesizer and various effets pedal setups."

Playlist:

1. Modern Sounds Pluto Synthesizer – Ambient Demo & Sound Exploration

These are my first "ten minutes" (okay, the video turned out a few minutes longer 😉) with the Modern Sounds Pluto semimodular synthesizer.
🎧Headphones recommended for the full sonic experience.

In this small setup Pluto is accompanied by three pedals, the Strymon El Capistan v1, the Chase Bliss/Goodhertz Lossy and the Eventide Space in ModEchoVerb algorithm, all in stereo.
Pluto, this tiny little box, is such a fascinating and inspiring instrument. You can get a million and more of sounds out of it.
I love how the filter of Lossy changes the overall mood of the sounds.

Waves of Evermore | A 3rd Wave 8M soundscape

video upload by MIDERA

"I picked up a 3rd wave 8M in a trade (my Jupiter 6 and Poly Evolver for their Xpander, 3rd Wave, Chase bliss Thermae, and cash) and honestly didn't think I'd like the 3rd wave very much, after having played the 24 voice desktop. Surprisingly, I am liking it more than I thought I would. Can't say I like the voice count at 8, especially if you can get the 24 voice for $2500 used... but it's not too bad. I just notice the voices dropping off on the 8M in a way I don't with other 8 voice synths like the Prophet VS. I wonder why that is, apart from maybe the 8M having a much longer release stage to the envelopes, but otherwise I have no idea.

Well, I do like it, sounds really nice actually."

Realm of Light — Berlin School Ambient Journey (Typhon Synth, 25 min)

video upload by The Pedalboard Orchestra

"A 25-minute Berlin School–inspired ambient journey built around a sequenced analog synthesizer and evolving modulation.

Driven by the Dreadbox Typhon, the sound slowly unfolds through filter movement, envelopes, and layered effects processing—creating a deep, immersive soundscape that rewards focused listening.

A key element in shaping the modulation is the Chase Bliss Lossy, especially its filter, while additional textures and time-stretched layers are introduced using the Chase Bliss Mood Mk II (Slip Mode & Stretch Mode).

Signal Path:
Dreadbox Typhon → Chase Bliss Lossy (modulated via Moog Expression Pedal) → Old Blood Noise Endeavors Black Fountain Stereo → Chase Bliss Mood Mk II → Eventide Space
