"The Digitakt now has double the LFO power at your fingertips. The second LFO gives you even more modulation possibilities, opening up a bonus parameter to modulate. It also includes the ability to control the first LFO with the second. Get ready to modulate the modulation."

Patch Notes: INIT
video by FACTmagazine
"INIT is the collaborative project of Berlin-based producers Nadia D’Alò and Benedikt Frey. The duo’s first album, Two Pole Resonance, was released back in October 2015 on John Talabot’s Hivern Discs label, showcasing the pair’s love of moody, krautrock-influenced synth compositions, which featured vocals from D’Alò.
INIT returned to the label in late 2020 with their second LP, Gravity. The album saw the duo adopting a more playful approach to songwriting, combining house, techno, post-punk and electro to create a lighter set of tracks than their debut. This eclectic style drives INIT’s Patch Notes session, which melds D’Alò’s lyrics with experimental sound design.
The session sees the duo make use of classic gear like Roland’s TR-808 drum machine and SH-101 synth, with contemporary hardware including a x0xb0x and SOMA’s Pulsar-23 semi-modular drum machine providing eerie textures.

You can find a couple of demos of one in previous posts here.
"This is one of the rarest synthesizers of the 1990s--especially for those of us in the US market. Its specialty is techno and dance music, but it does have a great range of samples including vintage stuff like Mellotrons. It is in fantastic condition and fully working. Its overall appearance is almost in time capsule condition. Any possible flaw (all minor) I found on the body has been photographed. The MAX version adds hundreds of additional sounds and is a rare addition to an already rare synth."

Techno on a Sequential Prophet 5 REV4? | CONFORCE
video by Conforce
"Here's a video to give you a sound impression of the Prophet 5 rev 4 desktop synthesizer There are 6 short jams that should give you a good idea about the overall possibilities.
#prophet5 #sequential #prophet6 #electro #synthesizer #techno
About: Sequential made a desktop version of their beloved classic Prophet 5 and it's an amazing compact analog workhorse polyphonic synthesizer that comes as close to the original as possible. It has an added vintage mode allowing you to determine a certain amount of oscillator, envelope and filter drift for a more organic sound. Besides that there are two filter options you can choose from, the rev1/2 and the rev3 filter, check the video to listen to some of the nuance differences. I struggled with the intention to get the P6 over the P5.. I think it's with a reason that they released the 5 again and priced it higher, the features are less but then again... I don't need an internal sequencer and effects, I just wanted the solid pure tone of the classic Prophet. I'm impressed by it and will be exploring it in the coming weeks. The envelopes and filter are great however they don't beat the incredible speed of my Korg Mono/Poly.."
