Ciat Lonbarde Sample Pack
https://akihikomatsumoto.sellfy.store...

116 Oneshots
30 Drones
Crafted from the Unpredictable
This evolving sample pack is a curated collection of sounds generated entirely with the eccentric modular instruments of Ciat Lonbarde. Featuring raw sessions recorded with Peterlin and Plumbutter 2, it offers a unique sonic palette ranging from fractured noise textures to rich ambient drones and abstract one-shots.

The Handcrafted World of Ciat Lonbarde
Ciat Lonbarde is the creation of instrument builder and sound thinker Peter Blasser. His designs reject conventional synthesis in favor of circuits that behave like living organisms. These instruments respond with tactile irregularity and voltage-driven nuance. This collection is not a digital imitation. It is the real analog, shaped in real time by touch and signal.

For the Forward-Thinking Producer
Whether you’re working in experimental ambient, leftfield techno, cinematic sound design, or simply seeking sonic material that resists the algorithmic polish of modern production, these samples offer tactile character and genuine unpredictability. No two loops are alike. No modulation repeats.

What’s Inside
Atmospheric drones
Textural noise beds
One-shot percussive blips and pulses
Select loopable material with musical intent
Files designed to inspire both immediate use and deep sampling exploration
Free Lifetime Updates
Your purchase is not a one-time transaction. This pack is a growing archive. New recordings are added continuously at no extra cost. Previous buyers already have access to the latest updates. If you haven’t joined yet, now is a perfect time.

Listen or Use
Several pieces included were composed with musical intent. They can be sampled, reshaped, or simply listened to as drone compositions in their own right. Sound as music. Music as sound."

MAGNOLIA, one of the HIGHLIGHTS of Superbooth

video upload by Hispasonic

Click CC for subtitles.

"We went inside the Frap Tools booth at the Berlin Superbooth to explore the Magnolia, a polyphonic synthesizer that has caught everyone's attention.

Magnolia stands out for its unique architecture, with two oscillators that break with convention: a through-zero oscillator that allows analog linear FM, evoking the classic timbres of Yamaha's FM synthesizers, but in a 100% analog format. It also features a more traditional oscillator with octave controls, variable waveform and a wave folder to add richness and timbral complexity. Want metallic sounds or subtractive textures? Magnolia dares to do both.

This synth also impresses with its polyphony and bithermality, allowing everything from dense sounds in dual mode to splits and morphing between presets. Each voice features two independent filters (low pass and high pass), extensive modulations with synchronizable LFOs, dedicated envelopes and an effects stage that includes analog distortion and digital slots for delays and modulations (still under development), as well as a built-in sequencer and expressive controls such as aftertouch, expression pedals and modulatable panning.

In this video you will hear sound demos that show the versatility of the Magnolia, from expansive stereo leads to vibrant textures with delayed vibrato. We also tell you details about its release, scheduled for late 2025 at an estimated price of 3995 €.

PPG's Superbooth Teaser Is for a New PPG 1002 Desktop Synthesizer

video upload by Cornel Hecht

"The PPG 1002, one of the rarest and most sought-after synthesizers in music history, is back as a original PPG hardware synthesizer. The PPG 1002 was, alongside the modular synthesizers, one of the last fully analog PPG synthesizer. It laid the foundation for later digital milestones such as the PPG 360, the Wave 2, and the Wave 2.2."

Follow-up to this post.

"Born for a new era"

"THE LEGEND LIVES ON

The PPG 1002, one of the rarest and most sought-after synthesizers in music history, is back as a original PPG hardware synthesizer.

The PPG 1002 was, alongside the modular synthesizers, one of the last fully analog PPG synthesizer. It laid the foundation for later digital milestones such as the PPG 360, the Wave 2, and the Wave 2.2.

The PPG 1002 reissue is now available for preorder and is strictly limited to only 102 units. The PPG 1002 is more than just a synthesizer – it represents a symbiosis of technology and ecological responsibility.

Based on Wolfgang Palm's original handwritten drawings, the PPG 1002 returns as an exclusive reissue – meticulously reconstructed and crafted with the highest precision.

This limited edition preserves the authentic analog circuitry of the original, bringing the legendary PPG sound to a new generation of musicians and collectors.

Unlike the original keyboard version, the reissue appears in the classic console-style housing, staying true to the design of the original 1002.

The PPG 1002 is an exclusive reissue of the legendary analog synthesizer designed by Wolfgang Palm in 1975. The total price is 9,999 Euros excluding shipping costs.

Production begins after your pre-order and a deposit of €4999.

The remaining €5000 is due before delivery."

"THE PPG STORY
In 1975, Wolfgang Palm made synthesizer history with the PPG 1002. An early prototype featured retractable patch cables, but in the final production model, these were replaced with rotary switches for more versatile modulation. A key advantage of the 1002 over its competitors was its temperature-compensated VCO circuit, now further refined in this reissue, preserving its iconic sound.

The PPG 1020 (1977) introduced digital oscillators, paving the way for the 360 Wavecomputer in 1979, which marked the beginning of wavetable synthesis. This was followed by milestones such as the PPG Wave 2.3 (1984) with MIDI and the PPG Waveterm B (1985).

After PPG was dissolved in 1987, Wolfgang Palm collaborated with Steinberg and later co-developed the Waldorf Microwave (1989). In the 2000s, he released software synthesizers under his own name, including the PPG Wavegenerator, Wavemapper, Infinite Pro, and Phonem. In 2020, Palm transferred the PPG technologies to Brainworx, which became part of Native Instruments in 2023.

At the same time, Cornel Hecht, part of the PPG team since 2012, reviewed Wolfgang Palm’s original handwritten schematics of the PPG 1002. His mission: to faithfully bring the analog circuitry of 1975 into the present. The first prototype impressed Native Instruments, laying the foundation for this exclusive reissue.
Wolfgang Palm: "What's labeled PPG should also be PPG inside! That was and still is my motto. The new edition of the PPG 1002 is based on the original PPG circuitry."

But this reissue is more than just a synthesizer, it’s a fusion of technology and ecological responsibility. The PPG 1002 is produced CO₂-neutral, and every purchase supports sustainable environmental projects, such as Liquid Sky’s reforestation initiative in Portugal. This way, the future of sound remains not only authentic, but also green."

And the Moog Sonic Six via this listing

"Beautiful 50 year old Moog that can do things no other Moog can do. It's the only Duophonic Moog! You can set one osc as low note and one to high note for duophonic playing, set it as a mono synth, or even change the scaling of the high osc for microtonal playing. This Moog has the same oscillators and filter as the Minimoog Model D but instead of the Mini's third osc that doubles as it's only lfo, the S6 has TWO dedicated LFOs that can have separate wave shapes and rates and can be modulated by the eg! Modulation craziness. This Moog also has TWO amps! One signal goes through the filter, as usual, but there is a second amp that bipasses the filter. This means you can have a high resonance sweeping filter sound going (which kills all low end on every Moog) but you can beef it back up with the dry out amp. I've had most Moogs and think this is by far the best and most powerful Moog. I passed on a Minimoog for only 3k years ago and sold my Multimoog when I got my first S6. Everything works. Tuning and scaling was just adjusted and it's working great. I barely play it and have some studio changes in mind so it's on the chopping block. Sold as-is. No returns and I am not responsible for any guts getting shaken during shipping. It's 50 years old and it's in excellent shape for that age. Tuning and calibration info can be found online if you need it after shipping. Also considering selling the Polymoog 203a seen in the photos which is also fully functional and includes the rare Polypedals. A little demo video of the two can be seen in the link. The S6 tune drift in the video is actually a slow LFO and not just drifting. Also the video was done before I tweaked the scaling pots inside."

Live eurorack improvisation with Constellation - RYK Algo - Westlich Performer - Ericasynth LXR Drum

video upload by Flat Round Modular Music

'A Modular improvisation , maybe Electronic Music, with :

Acid Rain Constellation - A powerful drum sequencer based on Euclidean algorithms, eight voices, for infinite rhythm sequences. Very live oriented.

RYK Algo: a digital four operators FM module, eight algorithms , for harsh to smooth melodies. And you can easily use it as a simple four voice module, ideal for chords. Wave folding and shaping inside. Very versatile.

Westlich Performer: Eight tracks CV/ gates with interesting CV modulation sequences, euclidean mode. My choice if I would have only one sequencer. And midi capacities too.

LXR Drum : Digital, yes, but a good way to learn the basics of drum sound synthesis with subtractive and FM synthesis. It can to everything if you need percussion acoustic of digital drums. Seven voices too.

This setup can do almost every style of music.

Have a look."

Pic of the inside below.

"I offer from my collection a very nice example of rare Yamaha GS2. The first commercially available FM synthesizer of the brand, a bit differently built synthesis than its successors (for example, separate parameter settings for each 4 adjacent keys, so splits are possible, etc.). Very analogue, distinctive sound, a joy to play. This is also helped by the perfect wooden keyboard with relatively fast response. The instrument is fully functional with all accessories - pedals, cover/legs, original sound bank on magnetic labels (22 labels). GS2 is fitted with Synthark's sound ROM, it has 128 sounds from Yamaha Library 1 and 2, the individual banks are switched by a rotary switch instead of the Store button next to the label reader (which is internally disconnected, either the ROM or the reader can work, not at the same time) so access to the sounds is instantaneous. But can be switched back to the reader at any time. The instrument is really heavy (~80kg), it is located in Prague, but I can personally deliver upon agreement within DE, NL, BE, A, or we can work out some shipping."

video upload by SchneidersLaden

"On July 25th, Marcel Belmans from Modor visited SchneidersLaden for an in-depth workshop exploring the NF-1 and DR-2 synthesizers. Known for their unique approach to digital synthesis, Modor's instruments are hands-on, innovative, and intuitive.

Marcel demonstrated the versatility of the NF-1's polyphonic synthesis and the DR-2's powerful drum synthesis, showing off recent firmware updates and new features. We got an inside look at how these machines interpret digital sound design, blending the familiar with the experimental. Nice!"
