Yamaha SY35 FM/AWM Synthesizer - Part 3 - Programming
video upload by Runningonair
Yamaha SY35 FM/AWM Synthesizer Runningonair posts
"In this video I get into the programming and try to come with a few decent sounds.
I also created an accompanying track, which just uses sounds from the SY35 (plus a vocal sample). The majority of effects are from the SY35 too. I have added compression and EQ, as well as doing a basic mastering job.
Let me know what you think of the synth in comments. I've been pleasantly surprised by it!"

Melatonin Sine Machine Additive Synthesizer w/ Hundreds of Oscillators
video uploads by Melatonin
via Melatonin



"Sine Machine is a new kind of additive synth
Sine Machine’s engine delivers an order of magnitude more oscillators than is reasonable for any synthesizer to have.
Hundreds of dots light up as you play. Each dot is an active oscillator. But don’t worry, they’ll only sip CPU…
Want the odd harmonics to fade out faster? Want to delay the upper harmonics? You can sculpt your dream sound with the envelope editor and visualize each change you make to your sound.
Be a control freak
Want to set the release time for Harmonic 14 to exactly 2.9 seconds?
You can do that. Each harmonic has its own amplitude envelope (DADSHR).
Play it by ear
Sometimes you just want to play. Thousands of knobs can be daunting…. especially when half of them don’t seem to change the sound at all!
Sine Machine lets you see and hear every change. There’s no need to remember where the One Knob That Actually Does Something is hiding (currently, there are no knobs at all).
Rooted in psychoacoustics
From the default 1/f amplitude profile of the volume bars to morphing exponential curves of envelopes — each parameter is custom ranged and tuned to help you make beautiful sounds for other humans.
Built from first principles
This is not a kitchen sink collection of off-the-shelf dsp building blocks.
Effects aren’t the same-old audio effects slapped on top. They are an intimate part of the synthesis engine itself. This gives you access to brand new sonic frontiers and per-harmonic effects never before possible.
Just a Microsecond
Sine Machine’s performance tolerances are measured in μs.
The engine is backed by hundreds of automated tests running across dozens of sample rates on MacOS, Windows and Linux.
Cleanest oscillators in town
Digital wavetable and FM synths work hard to filter and hack around noisy aliasing. Sine Machine is in full control of each and every harmonic, so it’s trivial to never produce a frequency over Nyquist."

Open Source Critter & Guitari 201 Musical Synthesizer - Kickstarter!
video upload by Critter & Guitari
via Kickstarter



"We’re Critter & Guitari and we’re happy to announce our newest synthesizer: the 201! If you’re familiar with our other musical instruments such as the Pocket Piano, Organelle, Bolsa Bass, or Kaleidoloop, we hope you’ll see that the 201 fits right in with them: the 201 is fun, portable, and packed with a medley of musical magic!The 201 is nearly pocket size, but don't let its small size fool you! Under the hood is some powerful circuitry that will allow you to explore your musical ideas quickly and easily. Let's take a look...
Sounds
At the heart of the 201 are six sound engines providing a wide range of sonic texture. Use the shift key to select an engine.
There is a little bit of everything: chiptune style waveforms, analog style filters, drum samples, realistic physical instrument models, and even a human vocal synthesizer.
Use the three center control knobs to further explore the sounds. Dial in the right amount of sustain, or adjust the tone. Or turn the 'surprise' knob if you are brave:
Patterns
Play directly on the keyboard or turn on one of the pattern generators. From simple octave arpeggiation to randomizing polyphonic patterns you will be inspired by the notes coming out of the 201! Use the first control knob to set the pattern's tempo.
The pattern generators also work great for creating drum beats using the drum samples!
Sequencer
If you like the way something sounds, recording it is just a button press away!
There is a handy metronome that you can play/record along with. When the sequence is playing back you can endlessly change the pattern and synth engine. When you get it just right, hit the save button. You can save 'unlimited' sequences (well... not really unlimited, but many thousands).
Connectable
The 201 wants to be friends with all your other gear! It works great with guitar effects pedals and amps.
With MIDI in and out you can control other synthesizers with the 201, or the other way around.
A USB-C connector lets you easily move files on and off the instrument.
Open Source
Critter & Guitari is committed to making musical electronics that are open platforms. Like our Organelle and EYESY instruments, the 201 is built entirely with Open Source software.
Inside, the 201 uses a combination of Pure Data and Faust musical programming environments. Users are invited to modify or create new sound engines!"

Noise Sketch #285 Uranus (Papa Srapa, Knas Moisturizer, Blippoo Box, Death by Audio TSA2)
And a live recording by Eduard 'Papa Srapa' Srapionovvia https://radio.syg.ma:
"Live recording by Eduard 'Papa Srapa' Srapionov (b. 1961), an innovative and eccentric Russian experimental/noise sound artist from Rostov-on-Don, primarily known as a designer and creator of peculiar DIY synthesizers, electroacoustic instruments, and various music/non-music interactive objects and sculptures, often built from junk, cheap toys, household items, etc.
Srapionov began his career in the eighties as an audio/light engineer and stage technician for Valery Posidelov's band Day and Evening («День и Вечер»), as well as a bassist for several jazz ensembles and rock groups – most notably, Zazerkalje. Since the early 2000s, Papa Srapa began performing solo with an array of unique self-built electroacoustic instruments, synthesizers, drum machines, effects processors, heavily modified turntable with prepared records, and various unidentifiable sound objects.
Most of his recordings are self-released on CDr – often each copy has a unique handmade artwork and cover design. Papa Srapa also released a few limited edition albums on Ginjoha (Japan), Kotä and Nazlo Records (Russia)."

"What is the Tele blender. ?
It’s generating experimental loops of control voltage. .
Controlling the chaos by making a loop from it s like it sequencer
switch quickly between noise and different kind of values of CV
Ultimate bubble, bath generator,
making complex rhythms,
from every oscillator or filter there are two control voltage out ."
