Insta Chord Demo & Review
video upload by musictrackjp
This should brighten your morning. This appears to be the first post to feature the Insta Chord hardware instrument. I'm not finding any additional info on it online. If you know feel free to leave a comment or reach out. Note there is also an InstaChord MIDI Processing Plugin "that helps you play chords and chord progressions faster and easier." I don't believe they are related.

MicroAddict: Synths & Microbes
video upload by MicroAddict
This one is in via supporting member SynthAddict who had the following to say:
"I started a new microscope life channel that will feature original synth music, mostly from modular to add to the mood.
My launch video today features some ambient space music from a Korg Wavestation A/D for all parts, made on an RC-505 looper (DAWless). For now it’s interesting visuals with synth music.
One of my upcoming videos will feature microbes found on synths and drum machines: cables, keys, pads, buttons, and strips... and chairs/floors. Should be fun 😀 it might get folks to dust and clean the studio more often."
And: "The critters here came from a local park and a pond.
The tardigrade came from dry moss and I brought him out of stasis by oaking the moss.
The spider was on the moss before I soaked it (extra bonus).
Tardigrades can survive very harsh conditions and 'resurrect'.
NASA even took them into space and they survived!"
Sacred 🧙♀️ (Dreadbox Nymphes) - Jamuary2022
video upload by 2-Minute Warning
Update: Re-upload with better audio (the previous version had a lower volume -10 dB)
"The challenge with this one was to use the Dreadbox - Nymphes, 4-voice analog polyphonic synth, as only instrument for the whole track, without any external effects! (only some EQ/comp for mixing purposes).
I'm not a big fan of the Nymphes' internal reverb, but had to use it for this track.
As I also wanted to have a kind of delay effect on the SEQ track (heard on the left speaker), I had to do it manually by re-recording a 2nd SEQ track (heard on the right speaker) after having shifted the MIDI notes of the first SEQ track 😅
I initially composed this track with the Conductive Labs - NDLR sequencer. I recorded its MIDI output in my DAW and later did some editing, adding some pitch bends, notes for transitions, etc.
I was quite surprised of how this little synth can be so versatile and sound fat! (There's been a lot of talk about its user interface, and indeed, I would have preferred either a small screen or a larger surface too!)"

Sequential Prophet X - Ambient Soundscape Imrpovisation - "The Relaxing Prophet"
video upload by KeyRides
"I love the Prophet X. Really. I deeply enjoy it´s possibilities. It´s overall structure, it´s audio quality.
For me, it is the most inspiring instrument I own.
Sometimes I sit down and start programming just for the fun of it to relax and calm down.
Mostly I don´t record, what I do when I´m programming. But this time, I had the cam near me from the last videos.
So, this is, what it sounded like in the end.
Hope, you like it!
Enjoy?!
