Experimental Electronic Piece on Eurorack + Blue Marvin 2600, and Moog Subharmonicon
video upload by Paolo Cattaneo
"Thanks for watching! I am starting to explore more techno and do more upbeat pieces for y'all as well as starting to plan some tutorials and more other ideas I have. Ambient Explorations will return soon as well, as I am planning with what new gear I can do those episodes with. Patch notes for this performance as usual are available on my Patreon, which is linked below. Cheers!

PMF ER 808 Patterns & Tracks
video upload by Randy Piscione
"This is an introduction to creating patterns on the PM Foundations ER-808, available here: http://www.tindie.com/stores/pmfounda.... This is PMF’s tribute to the Roland TR-808, as a Eurorack-compatible module composed of a panel and a set of build-it-yourself PCBs. The first video, showing behind-the-scenes views, can be found here:" [posted here]

Error Instruments Korsakov
video upload by Cinematic Laboratory
"Korsakov is a cool little noisemaker with seven sound algorithms, a built in low pass gate and a joystick you can use to make crazy sounds and movements - and then forget about it. You always need to find 'purpose' to an Error module, but this one can easily find its way to your industrial- and techno style patches. Please note I also spell Korzakov with a Z because the video needs to have a few errors."

"If you’re looking at this you likely know what this is. Two double knots with a neat little mixer section in the middle. I believe there were only a dozen or so made. I’ve also got a case for it from Analog cases that I’ll include. It’s not an official case but it fits good enough (I think the case is made for a keystep)."

Akai MINIAK

via this auction
What Akai has done with the MINIAK is basically take the Alesis Micron, update the design a bit and then attach a microphone to it.
The MINIAK is a bit larger than the Micron, which means that Akai was able to fit in full-sized keys for the three-octave keyboard. Although the 37-key semi-weighted keyboard does not feature aftertouch, it is velocity sensitive. One of the nice features of this keyboard is that it not only has a transpose range of eight octaves, but the brightness of the transpose buttons also increase to indicate that shifts have been made. Akai has incorporated three wheels, situated just above the keyboard, in contrast to the sliders of the Micron. Two of these are modulation wheels while the third is for pitch bending. Of course, the trade off for having a larger size is that the MINIAK also weighs a bit more than the Micron, but it is still a relatively portable synth.
The MINIAK offers eight notes of polyphony, with three oscillators per voice. Each voice also has two multi-mode filters and there are twenty different ones to choice from. In addition, the MINIAK has two LFOs along with three envelopes. The one-board storage is certainly not lacking either as it allows users to store up to 1000 patches. Thanks to a generous selection of patches, sequences and rhythms available from the start, it is easy to get started with the MINIAK right out of the box. The inclusion of a comprehensive sequencer, drum machine/rhythm sequencer and arpeggiator are also welcome.
Overall, the MINIAK offers a ton of features for synth enthusiasts and managed to do so at a much lower cost than most of the competition. The inclusion of the three wheels on this synth also made a nice change from other modern synths that were covered in knobs instead. Akai also included a nice on-board gooseneck microphone with the MINIAK for vocoder fans to play around with. At the end of the day, the Akai MINIAK is a very fun synth."
