"A little fun patch without a sequencer, just the 226t Source of Uncertainty with tuned intervals from both the Quantized Random Voltage and the Sample & Hold. Enjoy!

Serge Random*Source Resonant EQ - SMD vs Thru hole

video upload by John Schussler

"I've had an SMD version of the Random*Source Serge Resonant EQ for some time, and have been curious to know whether the older thru-hole version had a significantly different sound. I recently ran across one for sale, so here we are.

This is basically me trying to figure out how they're different, and whether I have a preference. Ideally I'd only keep one, but....

Source oscillator is an Acid Rain Chainsaw in single saw mode.
Sequence from Stochastic IG. Envelope from Zadar.

00:00 Intro
00:20 SMD Self-oscillation
04:03 TH self-oscillation
07:27 Sequence
13:55 Faster sequence"

Arturia MiniFreak Demo

video upload by Pure Ambient Drone

"Arturia's MiniFreak is a polyphonic hybrid keyboard that unites dual digital sound engines with analog filters, playful modulation, instinctive sequencing, and rich stereo effects for sounds that are immediately curious, beautiful, and chaotic in equal measure.

Explore The Unconventional
In the rift where digital meets analog, engine meets engine, hardware meets software, expression meets impulse, and reality meets boundless imagination, dwells MiniFreak.

Discover endless sweet spots between sonic universes and tear up the rulebook with an addictive hybrid synthesizer that invites you to play without consequences.

Double The Engines, Double The Fun
From Virtual Analog to FM, Additive to Ring Mod, collide contrasting modes for compound polyphonic timbres, feed Engine 1's sound into Engine 2 for stacked sonic interplay, and process external audio through its architecture to unleash any sound's wild side. Whether it's mix-filling bass, textural percussion, or center-stage synth lead, you can mold MiniFreak's many voices into whatever shape you desire."

The Touring Musician's Dream Synth? +GIVEAWAY (USA)

video upload by HAINBACH

"Thanks to @PerfectCircuit for sponsoring this video and giving away an OP-1 Field to one of my treasured viewers (US residents only). Follow the instructions in this link (live at 10 AM Pacific) to enter the contest: https://bit.ly/3gL5AI5

I did not like the OP-1 Field at first glance. I travelled around the world with my ten year old battered original OP-1 and played it in countless shows, songs, and soundtracks. I used it like a Swiss Army knife - at home I have instruments that do each individual job better, but on the road the OP-1 is a wonderful combination of tools. It became one of my most important instruments. When the newest iteration came around it felt strange - I was very attached to my OP-1, so I did not want to give the Field a real chance. But when I took it with me on tour and travels over the past months, that changed."

London Synth and Pedal Expo Set for March 18

"The organizers of the Brooklyn and LA Synth Expo are excited to announce the first edition of the London, UK edition of this event.

The London Synth and Pedal Expo is an annual ‘all things with knobs’ event” that features:
A gear expo – where musicians can try pedals and interact with builders
A pop-up market – where exhibitors can sell their products to attendees
Workshops and clinics
Gear giveaways and other promotions (discounts, deals, etc)

Since 2014, the Brooklyn Synth Expo has been attracting large crowds of musicians to NYC's most musical borough; merging in 2018 with sister event the Stompbox Exhibit to become the Synth & Pedal Expo.

Unpretentious, free to the public, and pop-up in nature, this strictly in-the-headphones event was born from an NYC music blog covering local emerging bands called The Deli as a way to entertain the community of musicians it served.

After expanding to several other big North American music scenes like Los Angeles, Toronto, and Portland - the Synth & Pedal Expo will launch its first European edition in London, UK on March 18, 2023.

Organized centrally in the hip neighborhood of Hackney, the first London Synth & Pedal Expo will give gear lovers the opportunity to check out and try the latest devices by big and small builders belonging to two increasingly cross-pollinating niches.

It will also feature an educational component with workshops and clinics, and an assortment of media partners and influencers that will allow it to broaden its relevance beyond the physical constraints of a real-life event.

While vendor registrations are already open, visitors should look out for an RSVP link being promoted on the event's Facebook page around the end of January.

Event Details:
When: March 18, 2023.
Where: Motel Studios, 406-408 Long St, London E2 8HG
Tickets: Free to the public
