Soma Pulsar 23 - A Night At Stonehenge - Sonic landscapes with the best drum machine ever made

video upload by Friendly Noise

"Sonic landscapes with the Soma Pulsar 23, arguably the most amazing if not the best drum machine ever made. The combination of sound quality, easy of use, open design, interconnectivity and interactivity makes the Soma a fantastic piece of musical gear, and which is more important, a real instrument to play with."

Verbos Electronics

video upload by Robin Rimbaud-Scanner

"It's arguably the hottest day of the year in the UK. I'm in the studio, a little exhausted from deadlines this week, so decided I deserved some playtime, so instead of lounging in the sunshine (which can be very dangerous), I set up this little patch on my small Verbos Electronics modular system. It's only a sketch that might appear within something else one day, but thought it worthy of sharing, if only to give my day meaning, after all 😀"

Yamaha PS-400 - Full Review

video upload by Keen On Keys

"The PS-400 is a small keyboard with 44 mid-sized keys, 8 note polyphony, 10 voices with sustain, 10 rhythms with variation, duet function, transposer and a chord sequencer. It was released in 1982. It sounds exactly the same as the PC-100 and MP-1 and was also released in a smaller and functions reduced version as the PS-300.

Roland Juno 60 Post Repair Demo

video upload by Randy Piscione

"I recently gave this Juno 60 a check-up, cleaning some misbehaving keys, replacing two transistors on the chorus board and replacing all of the slide potentiometers. This demo is all in manual mode, just noodling and turning knobs, with and without the chorus."

synthesizers.com Q106A LED Behavior Mod

via sublevel9 lab

"The LED on synthesizers.com's Q106A oscillator cycles as a triangle wave regardless of the shape selected with its waveform selector switch. In LFO mode, I've often wished the LED would follow the shape of the waveform. When the LFO is very slow, it can be hard to tell when the waveform changes direction. I've grown accustomed to how LEDs on Serge modules accurately track their "action", and it can be really helpful for certain things, especially when you're watching for that LED from across the room.

With the Q106A's LFO outputting square or pulse waves, for example, it'd be handy if the LED snapped on and off rather than slowly fading in and out. Or with a sawtooth wave selected, it'd be great if the LED snapped on with the saw's sharp rise and then slowly faded with the saw's descent. So I asked James at synthesizers.com if there's any circuitry on the Q106A that could be co-opted for this purpose.

James said he'd do some digging/experimentation and get back to me. I've not heard many anecdotes of synthesizers.com encouraging DIY work on their stuff, so I was surprised and delighted by his response:

'The PCB can be modified so that the selection on the Wave Range Switch drives the LED. So the LED will follow the [shape] of whatever waveform that switch is set to. Note that this is really only useful at low frequencies. Most of the time the LED will look the same.'"

You can find the mod on sublevel9 lab.
