"A first VCO having four waveforms responds in frequency to 1V / OCT, the second VCO is absolutely identical, but it is possible to choose down to 7 octaves below the first and to vary its frequency to +/- 2 octave. You can turn it into a CV LFO. At – 7 octaves it oscillates so slowly that it becomes a controllable LFO in CV 1V/OCT and CV IN2 in exactly the same way.
With the “CF (CrossFade)” potentiometer it is possible to adjust the crossfade between the two VCOs in order to obtain very thick sounds.
You can choose between five wave formes for each VCO and if you select noise + noise you then have the punk mode (Fig.6) !
The Subway keep the chosen waveforms in memory after power off.
The CV2 input (0-5V) is successively assignable to each of the four potentiometers and the two waveform selectors."
A new suitcase synth from Pin Electronics, makers of the EMS SYNTHI inspired Hornet and Portabella synths. Note the components listed below are modular in nature as the internal modules are electronically separated. This is a self contained mini modular synth.

"Finally - the demo for the Stereoping Microwave Programmer - over 12 minutes full of short clips and subtitles - hopefully useful somehow. Up to 3:50 the sound only contains a non-related background music, the shown content did not have any valuable sound.
0:06 PREFS - Entering the Programmers PREFS mode, making changes to internal settings, automatic saving on exit
0:29 PATCH MODE - Entering PATCH mode, synchronisation of parameter data, stepping up/down through programs. Moving pots, display shows new and old value (in brackets), COMPARE and PEEK function
1:32 PARAMETER GROUPS - layout of Programmer's parameters in groups. Editing hidden parameters. WAVETABLE always available on encoder 4, solution for accessing the many WAVE ENV LEVELS/TIMES values with only 6 pots.
2:47 MODULATION MODE - how to edit the Microwave's modulation slots (normal and complex ones). Two dedicated pots for quickly setting VALUEs or ZEROing them out. Demoing the TEMP mode for direct change of modulation values through pots.
3:50 - EDITING SESSION, from here on the shown clips have sound. Starting with an INIT sound, the program is shaped into something nicer over 2 and 1/2 minute.
6:38 - RANDOMIZER - creating several sounds while changing the randomizers parameters. (Mind the volume, some aggressive sounds here)
8:12 - CHORD MEMO - playing with the 5 CHORD slots. Entering Chord SETUP to demo chord learning and STRUM.
9:30 - playing a pattern from a DAW, shaping a bass sound by Control Change messges making use of the Programmer's CC-to-SysEx translator
10:26 - MULTI MODE - finally a brief demo for the Programmer's MULTI mode. Please check the Programmer's PDF manual for details here.

"TiNRS Fenix beta - first patch! Our friends Stijn, Priscilla and Lauri at This is Not Rocket Science have been working day and night to get this awesome, full-fledged Eurorack compatible system-in-a-box modular synth polished for launch, and the first five beta instruments are finally in orbit! Little tweaks are still being made, but we couldn't wait to share our love for this instrument! ❤️ All sounds coming straight from this machine.
This patch shows off the flexibility of the Fenix' sequencer, with trigger outs for every step - syncing the wobbler complex LFO with the beat and adding the choppy stutter to the analog chord oscillator. There's both both per-step CV in - the lovely squeak on step 6 made with an LFO - and overall CV offset - allowing the 8 bar progression from the Arturia Beatstep Pro to pitch the whole sequence.
The beat is made using the Digital Oscillator in wavetable mode, with a bank of drum samples loaded on output 1 and just claps on output 2 - with the Fenix logic modules doing an incredibly funky job of mixing the drum triggers. We're super happy to be part of this test run, and are having tons of fun making music with it!"
"The Fairlight CMI was the worlds first commercial sampler, but in the context of how it changed music, probably the most important part was Page R. This is an awful piece of musical creation on my CMI IIx, but it hopefully shows you how Page R works and I also offer an overview of the other pages available on the CMI system. For nerds only!
My IIx used to belong to Kim Wilde and has been restored by Jean-Bernard Emond in France. An amazing machine and so much fun. The "musical" example here is just that, an example. Hopefully I will post some more musical adventures in the future."
