Improvised Session on the Arturia Polybrute, Moog DFAM, and Lakland 55-01 w/ Vongon, JHS, and POG2
video by Joel Negus
"I wanted to explore the clock out of the Polybrute with some different instruments. The DFAM was a no brainer, but I actually used the Subharmonicon as a trigger for the DFAM. I loved the results taking the same trigger and sending it to the CV in of the Vongon Paragraphs, resulting in some wild patterned tremolo. I hope you enjoy!
Instruments Used:
Arturia Polybrute
Moog DFAM
Lakland Fretless 55-01
Vongon Paragraphs
JHS Colour Box V2
Electro Harmonix POG2"
Elektron Announces Transfer 1.4 Upgrade
video by Elektron
"Transfer 1.4 is a major advancement in its capability to get even more out of your Elektron gear. With this latest version, you can keep your compositions safe and sound by backing up projects and sounds/presets or samples on all current Elektron products (except Octatrack). You want to then send your project - complete with sounds - to a friend to open up and use on their device? This is now an awesome possibility. In addition, performance improvements and bug fixes have been implemented to ensure Transfer runs super smooth, whether it is updating the firmware on your unit or backing up its files. Download Transfer 1.4: https://bit.ly/34yjyn1
Please make sure you have the latest OS installed on your device to ensure full compatibility with Transfer. Digitakt and Analog Rytm both have new OSs released today to support sample transfer. Head to our Support page to check and update if needed."
Elektron Machinedrum SPS-1 UW+ MK II - X04 Dub
video by TheTrackdriver
"All sounds are from the Elektron Machinedrum SPS-1 UW+ MK II. I am only using the new features that came with the X.04 unofficial OS, mainly in the GND machines (melodic). I used a CT-scan of my Machinedrum for the visualisations. The clips are rendered with Inside Explorer Pro from Interspectral AB."

New Corsynth C113 West Coast Timbre 5U/MU Format Module
via Corsynth
"A wavefolder is a non-linear waveshaping circuit that allows to create rich harmonic waveforms. Its a distortion circuit that folds back the signal when it reaches a cerTain level. Wavefolding can be seen as the opposite of filtering. Instead removing harmonic content to the incoming signal, a wavefolder adds harmonics to the original signal creating a more complex waveform. For this reason wavefolders work best with waveforms with low harmonic content like sine waves or triangle waves.
Wavefolders together with Lopassgates are one of the main building blocks of the West Coast Synthesis.
The C113 West Coast Timbre features two different wavefolder circuits based on two classic west coast modular synths Buchla and Serge.
The C113 West Coast Timbre main characteristics are :
Two selectable wavefolder circuits.
Manually and CV controlled folding amount
Manually and CV controlled symmetry for non symmetrical folding.
Two audio inputs, one of them attenuated.
Two audio outputs, one of them controlled by a VCA
Thanks to the included VCA, a full featured voice can be created with a minimal amount of modules like a VCO, an envelope and the C113."
Sequential Prophet 5 Moog Grandmother Dark Analog Layers Synthesizer Rik Marston
video by Rik Marston Official
"The Sequential Prophet-5 & Moog Grandmother Dark layered via MIDI.
I am playing the Korg Kronos as MIDI master keyboard.
I am tweaking both synths (one at a time) as I play.
Space FX used because my camera angle was bad & I haven't made
a space video in a while so...
If you have not done so already, follow me on INSTAGRAM! (rikmarston)
There I share a TON more stuff than on FB or YT.
See the synths arrive FIRST! Find out more about me and my universe!
And it's a great way to connect with me, too! :)"

Troubleshooting & Repairing Electronic Music Synthesizers by Delton T. Horn
1980 Moog Liberation Keytar Vintage Analog Synthesizer SN 2052

"For Parts or Repair
This is the keyboard controller of a Moog Liberation Analog Monophonic synthesizer. It does not have a case or power supply. Without the power supply the unit cannot be tested so we are selling it as is for parts or repair. The cap for the decay/release slider is missing but the rest of the instrument seems to be intact. There is a lot of body wear and scrapes but no cracks and the switches all move and feel solid and all of the knobs and controls feel solid and move easily. The keys all feel like they are working properly. None of them are stuck or broken. We've removed the bottom panel and included pictures of the board under the keys. This is a rare instrument from the early days of synthesizers. It may just need the power supply to return to the stage or it can be used to repair or refurbish another unit. It weighs in at around 13 pounds."

"Cosmetic Condition: Some wear on the wooden side panels, some light scuffs around the faceplate - in particular on the filter traveler - one key repaired (pictured). Working great and has for years, stable tuning and tracking along the keyboard. One slider cap is missing. The power indicator light is an old neon bulb and doesn’t light up anymore but the power switch works just fine."

"This synthesizer is in excellent shape and super clean cosmetic condition. Some scratches on the keys but all knobs etc are present and work as they should and I just installed a new battery. Yesh, Boards of Canada were known to use this one. 👍
If you are looking for one of these, this is the one to get. Arguably the best analog modeling synth ever made. 🎹 Includes Yamaha PSU."
