Kasser Synths Arcade YM2151 overview + Strymon NightSky

video by Floyd Steinberg

Kasser Synths also brought us the DAFM based on the YM2612 or YM3438 FM SEGA Genesis soundchip.

"Here's an overview of the Kasser Synths Arcade YM2151, the successor of the "Genesis YM3438" DIY synth with vastly superior sound quality and 8 voices of polyphony AND multitimbrality. This synth is based on the Yamaha 2151 integrated FM soundchip which was used in early 90s arcade cabinets (hence the name).
In this video, I take a brief look at the synth's features, create an evolving pad sound, pair it with a Strymon Nightsky pedal and last but not least create a short demo track making use of the machine's multitimbratility and polyphony.

The Moog Prodigy is my favorite Moog Synth.
Yes I love The Prodigy more as my Minimoog and the others.
The sync sounds are the best of the world in my opinion.

The demo shows the pure Prodigy sound without FX, EQ or compression.
Sequenced by the Pro-One sequencer"

Sequential Pro 3 vs. Moog Sub 37: Raw Sounds, Basic Sound Design, No Effects, *No Talking*

video by MR TUNA Music

"No effects, no talking-- Just the raw uncompressed sounds of these two powerful analog mono-synths. 🔥🔥🔥🔥

We'll flex some filters, burn some oscillators, and compare them side-by-side until my camera dies. (in classic tuna-style)"

Korg OPSIX More Bass Leads Pads FM DX7 Digital Synthesizer Rik Marston

video by Rik Marston Official

"More Bass Leads & Pads from the Korg OPSIX!
What a great purchase for any studio! Super fun to play!
I think if you love FM, the OPSIX goes waaay beyond clanky,
metallic, brash, clunky sounds! You can morph a bell into a pad
with a few knob twists! And the editing is EASY to do!
FM digital synthesizer that can do virtual analog no problem.
The original DX7 did that back in 1986! So now you can imagine.

I have 2 NWA 869 chondrite meteorite slices on the OPSIX.
They send you ***Positive Cosmic Vibes***!"

4ms - Ensemble Oscillator & Random*Source Haible Tau Phaser

video by SchneidersLaden

"The Ensemble Oscillator by 4ms is a unified polyphonic voice of sixteen complex oscillators that combines additive, FM, phase distortion and wavefolding synthesis techniques in new, unorthodox ways. Being polyphonic here doesn't mean you can play all 16 oscillators directly. They share a single CV input, but you can very easily and quickly create your own scales to shape the chord the way you want it.
What really makes the Ensemble Oscillator special, however, is the sheer endless sonic possibilities offered by the Twist, Warp and Cross FM parameters. From sharp and cutting to wobbly and warm sounds, it's just a few twists on these three parameters. Although they are very complex operations, you never feel lost and wish for a reset button - quite the opposite, the work with the Ensemble Oscillator always feels simple and encourages you to explore areas you never even thought of before.
The Eurorack version of Jürgen Haible's legendary interpretation of the ultra rare Tau "The Pipe" Flanger from the 70s is a great analog effects unit that really breathes life into any sound. Random*Source's 18-pole phaser produces a powerful and unique phaser sound. It likes complex signals, like pads or FM sounds, but can also be pinged very well, for special percussive sounds - some of them at the end of this video."

“Spherical Sound Society Arcane - First Contact” by Friendly Noise

video by Friendly Noise

"Arcane, by Spherical Sound Society, is a DIY generative chiptune FM drum synth module, which can also be purchased as kit or fully assembled: [see this post for additional details]

In this first contact video you’ll find only sound examples. In a forthcoming video there will be details about the controls and the interface. The sound is “as is”. No effects or processing were applied, but Arcane’s output went through the Xaoc Tallin VCA in order to raise the level a little.

However, if you are into lo-fi FM sounds and easy of use, my opinion is already here: Arcane could be a lot of fun. :-)

Arcane is not an eurorack module, but using the clock input and output, you can easily sync it and integrate it with eurorack modules."
