Playlist:
2. Axoloti basic synthesis tutorial

3. H2SO4 - "Step sequencer, oscillators, filter, distortion acid. Screencast and audio straight recorded from Axoloti, no post-production. The screaming sound and detuning are 100% intentional. It's not a track, just demo'ing some sonic power. No samples used."

4. The hoover sound - "3 PWM oscillators, notch filter, chorus FX. Played via MIDI from the LMMS sequencer."

5. Tybett - "Three 'Feedback Delay Network' resonators played by filtered pulses in a polyrhythmic pattern. No processing done outside Axoloti."

6. Amon is broke - "A beatslicer in Axoloti!"

"Axoloti is a platform that blends sketching of digital audio algorithms with the musical playability of standalone hardware.

The Axoloti Patcher offers a “patcher” environment similar to Max/MSP, Pure Data or Reaktor.

The patches run on a standalone powerful microcontroller board : Axoloti Core.

Look at some examples of what it is up to.

Optionally, it can connect to the Axoloti Control, which allows to navigate through patches and adjust parameters away from the computer.

It is still ongoing development, current source code is on GitHub.

Axoloti Control allows you to navigate through patches and adjust parameters away from the computer, without having to assign parameters to MIDI controllers.

It has a graphical monochrome LCD, navigation buttons, 4 endless encoders and 4-by-4 pushbuttons with LEDs.

It’s designed to enable interactions like controlling a 16-step sequencer, or as a 4-track arrangement controller, or adjusting 4 different values of one selected object like an ADSR envelope."

The Roland TR-8

Published on Jan 5, 2015 Dylan Nau

"Melodic type performance using only the Roland TR-8. I was inspired by a similar performance by someone else here on youtube on the TR8 and thought it was brilliant so I tried my own style of that. If you know the person please send along his info so I can properly pay tribute. Anyhow, cheers and thanks for checking it out."

"This one is exceptionally clean, and has had all the wood professionally upgraded with Bubinga by Analogics. The synth is 100 % functional, with no scratchiness on sliders, or otherwise..."

Yamaha TX816 SN 3493 with 8 TF1 Modules

"The TX816 is a monster of DX and FM digital synthesis. It is a unique system in that it is a rack unit that could take up to eight TF1 modules. A TF1 module is basically a DX7 condensed down to a single circuit board with almost no front panel controls. Definitely designed for use with external hardware and software controllers the TX816 allows you to easily carry around up to eight DX7s! Software such as MOTU Unisyn, Emagic SounDiver, or even another DX7 can be used to program the sounds in each module via MIDI.

Each TF1 module consists of a 16-voice, 6-operator digital FM synth engine. So a complete TX816 with all eight TF1 modules would offer up to 128 voices and 48 operators! Each TF1 also features an indepednent audio out (XLR) and MIDI I/O for a total of eight audio outputs and MIDI I/O's. It also has one global MIDI in/out port with 8-part multitimbrality, but no common stereo or mix output."
