Nice keys sound with Sequential Trigon-6 (no talking)
video upload by Mr. Card
"I used the great Soundtower Sequential Trigon-6 editor when recording the material - https://bit.ly/trigon-6editor
No EQ. No compression. Only internal effects. Pure sound."
Sequential Pro 3 - Preciptation
video upload by Frank Neumann
"This track made the 4th place of the one-synth only challenge on the http://www.sequencer.de synth forum!
The aim of the game was to make a complete track with one mono synth using only 9 track in your DAW, every sound was made with the Pro3 from Sequential..."
Pittsburg Taiga Is A Colorful Analog Semi-Modular Synthesizer!
video upload by Patchwerks
"Music producers, get ready! Today we're checking out the all-new semi-modular Pittsburg Taiga synthesizer. It's a complete, modern, modular machine that can take you beyond the boundaries of a traditional analog synth. The Taiga comes equipped with three huge analog oscillators, the famous Pittsburg Filter, and the Dynamics Controller - giving you the power to create sounds that you'd expect from a regular monosynth, plus a whole range of new sonic textures and capabilities. Get ready to explore your sonic potential with the Pittsburg Taiga!

1 More Hour of Buchla Style Modular Synthesizer & Vocals from GSG Presents: SYNTHON: JAMURAMIUM II:
video upload by The Galaxy Electric
"For this performance we used our Buchla style Modular Synthesizer, Nord Modular G1, Tascam Porta02 mkii, tape loop, Elektron Octatrack mkii, Koma Elektronik Field Kit, Boss RE-20 Space Echo Pedal x2, Pigtronix Infinity Looper, Shure Beta 87C, and more.
This Jamuramium II festival was packed with talented streamers. We had a blast listening as well as participating. Watch and listen as we traverse through the cosmos, exploring different space conditions, planetary systems and beyond through cosmic tape music. The Golden Shrimp Guild is our streaming posse. Everyone involved is a class act. Check out the Golden Shrimp Guild and all of the associated streamers if you want to treat yourself.

The Spring 2023 Update for the Nonlinear Labs C15
video upload by Nonlinear Labs
"In this video Tim Sund shows the new features coming along with the Spring 2023 Update for the Nonlinear Labs C15. More information on: https://www.nonlinear-labs.de



About the Spring 2023 Update:
As another step in the evolution of the C15 we have just released our third major firmware update. It greatly expands the sound design capabilities of the instrument and improves its user interface.
You can now modulate almost all parameters using the Macro Controls (185 instead of 95 possible modulation targets), and we have extended the ranges of 17 parameters.
There is now the possibility to bypass the Feedback Mix Gate and to control the decay times of Envelope C by velocity.
With the new Loop function of Envelope C it can behave like a polyphonic LFO, that is synced to the key and can be influenced by velocity and key trackings.
Single sounds can now also use a second effect group (in total 10 effects) and both effect groups can now be operated in parallel as well as in serial mode.
It is possible to pan Parts and effects groups and route them separately to the left and right audio output.
For Split sounds, the feedback routing has been extended, so that the output signal from one Part can be an input signal for the other Part.
The Preset Search function in the graphical user interface has been completely redesigned to display all search results in a single list. Search and sorting criterias have been extended. Thus, the new search window combines many preset functions in a convenient way.
And as a usability improvement of the hardware, the two physical ribbons can now be switched between two pairs of virtual ribbons, giving fast access to up to four Macro Controls."

Taiga - Paraphonic Modular Synthesizer



January 31st, 2023 - Pittsburgh, PA - Pittsburgh Modular Synthesizers today announced Taiga, a 3-oscillator paraphonic synthesizer.
Taiga is a powerful, complete, modern, and modular instrument that's a tour de force of the Pennsylvania based analog synth R&D team's recent inventions. Taiga wraps these new tools into a surprisingly accessible package that provides a massive pallet of 100% analog sounds to its users.
Taiga’s sound can be attributed to three uniquely Pittsburgh innovations. A trio of huge analog oscillators, the unmistakably smooth sound of the Pittsburgh Filter, and the warmth + punch of the unique Dynamics Controller. These enable you to not only create sounds that would be traditionally expected from an analog synthesizer but also to explore new sonic textures and performance possibilities.
Taiga oscillators
Waveforms generated by the three Taiga oscillators stretch beyond the basic geometric shapes and sounds associated with analog synthesis. Taiga waveforms pass through up to three proprietary, cascading waveshapers designed to precisely manipulate their symmetry and harmonic content. In addition, each oscillator includes a robust six-stage wave folder to add even more complexity and depth to the diverse sonic palate of Taiga.
The 'Pittsburgh Filter'
The Pittsburgh filter has defined the sound of Pittsburgh Modular from the moment it was introduced. A signature gummy and relaxed sound with no dead spots that has been tweaked to perfection. It offers a warm, smooth sweep through the full frequency range and a sweet resonance that does not roll off the low end. This generation of the Pittsburgh filter is specifically designed to ensure a remarkable interplay with Taiga’s oscillators.
Pittsburgh Dynamics Controller
Pittsburgh's new Dynamics technology imparts Taiga with a uniquely organic depth and presence. By simultaneously managing both amplitude and harmonic content, the Pittsburgh Dynamics Controller expands beyond the one-dimensional VCA found in other synthesizers. It does this by utilizing new advancements from traditional low pass gates to add additional definition and dimension to the voice of Taiga.
When used in low pass gate mode, sounds shed harmonic content and become warmer as they decrease in volume. This mimics how sound waves react to their environment. Because of this connection, the Taiga sounds more natural or complex compared to other instruments.
Echos, Mixer, MIDI, and much more
Pulling no punches in rounding out Taiga’s capabilities, Pittsburgh has included MIDI to CV conversion, mixer, preamp with soft clipping overdrive limiter circuit, analog bucket brigade delay, dual envelope generators, digital multi-modulation tool, LFO, noise generator, clock-synced arpeggiator, and an internal clock with tap tempo (can be externally synced too). You can use Taiga without patching or dive into its 60 patch points to use its components as separate modules with external devices or reroute its internal patching. The creative possibilities abound!
