Chaotic Pressure Array Synthesizer
video upload by Peter Corbett
"This was my team's submission to our 4th year EE Capstone project. The synth features chaotically phase-modulated oscillators (Lorenz Attractor), and a dynamic and expressive 2 dimensional pressure input device:
X-axis = pitch
Y-axis = filter cutoff + chaotic mod index
Z-axis (pressure) = amplitude + filter cutoff
The pressure pad is comprised of a sheet of Velostat sandwiched between vertical and horizontal strips of conductive tape. Shift registers apply voltage to each column sequentially, and analog multiplexers scan each row to build an array of pressure readings for all the cells. This is driven by an ESP32, which in turn transmits UART data to a Raspberry Pi 4B.
A python script receives pressure data and parses it into note events. Higher order interpolation methods are employed to capture inter-cell peaks and improve positional resolution. The DSP synth engine is built in PureData with a TouchOSC front end."

OP-1 Field's Dimension Synth Presets
video upload by EZBOT
"In this video I share a clip of the new OP-1 Fields Dimension synth presets. This video clip was sent to me by a friend who is a beta tester for Teenage Engineering. He plugged his OP-1 directly into his iPhone and filmed these presets for me to share with you. I always thought the OP-1 needed an easy to read subtractive synthesizer, this engine appears to be just that."

Mamotreco OP-1 Mixtape Diary #2 | Teenage Engineering Synth
video upload by Mamotreco
"Welcome to another entry in my synth music diary with the Teenage Engineering OP-1. This time is eschew the radio samples from the last mixtape ([posted here]) and focus on the internal TE OP 1 synth sounds. No external sounds were added. Everything you hear is 100% Teenage Engineering OP-1. #op1 #teenageengineering #synth
I then played live over the top of the tape in one take, using further OP-1 synth sounds on top of what I had done before. There's also a couple of times where I use the Memory 1 momentary button to change the overall sound. Apologies if the final product is a bit rough, but that's how it goes with the OP-1, it's immediate and not everything is perfect but that's why I love it, great to break through writers block and get making music.

Acids RAVE - Realtime Audio Variational autoEncoder
video upload by Realtime Neural Audio Synthesis - embedded RAVE #2 Acids Team - Ircam
From the makers of Neurorack.
"Official implementation of RAVE: A variational autoencoder for fast and high-quality neural audio synthesis (article link) by Antoine Caillon and Philippe Esling.
RAVE comes with two command line utilities, resample and duration. resample allows to pre-process (silence removal, loudness normalization) and augment (compression) an entire directory of audio files (.mp3, .aiff, .opus, .wav, .aac). duration prints out the total duration of a .wav folder.
Once trained, you can reconstruct an entire folder containing wav files"
"Demonstration of realtime embedded RAVE models on different platforms:
- Raspberry Pi 4 8GB
- Nvidia Jetson Nano 4GB
With RAVE + nn~ you can embed realtime neural audio synthesis inside single board computers !

Special thanks to Victor Paredes for his help with the motion sensor"

Patch Diary 001: Korg MS2000
video upload by Bloom Music
"Let's make this patch.
This is a new video series where I create a patch from scratch and explain it (with subtitles) along the way.
The synth for today was the Korg MS2000.
The effects used were:
Hungry Robot Wardenclyffe Deluxe
Mid-Fi Electronics For Parts or Repair
Ibanez Echo Shifter ES-2
This time, I made a lo-fi, Juno style patch."
