Sequential Prophet Rev2 16-Voice Sounds Demo
video upload by Chicago Synth Exchange
"Drew showcases the sonic polyphony of this vintage Sequential Prophet-5 rev2 16-voice poly-synth, now available at the Synth Exchange! The Prophet rev2 16-voice features twice the polyphony as the rev2 8-voice synths, plus twice the mod matrix, waveshape modulation on all waveforms, and digital effects per layer in stacked or split voice mode—all of which make this Prophet-5 an analog powerhouse!
Following in the footsteps of the original Sequential Prophet-5 released in 1978—the first electronic music synthesizer to employ microprocessors for storing sounds, making it possible to recall previous patches with ease—the Prophet-5 rev2 16-voice synth represents the second iteration of Sequential’s microprocessor-controlled polyphonic synth. Boasting the highly resonant, slightly more mid-rangy sonic characteristics of the Dave Rossum-designed SSM 2040 filter, this synth became so beloved by musicians and producers that Sequential incorporated its sounds into its latest rev4 update, both to appease Sequential enthusiasts who preferred these earlier versions and to let modern users access all the quirks of previous iterations!"

Floyd went to Superbooth 23 and all he got was this jute bag +info on Aodyo Anyma Omega, Motor Synth MkII
video upload by Floyd Steinberg
"Here's what I saw / wanted to see at #Superbooth 23, plus some impressions of the event itself. I talked with @AodyoInstruments about their line of hardware modeling synths, Anyma PHI, Sylphyo and #Anyma OMEGA (thanks again for taking so much time to walk through the features!). Also a presentation of the @GamechangerAudio #Motorsynth MKII, which I already filmed last year but never got around to turn into a video.
Please forgive me if I mispronounced names / got them wrong entirely. I lost some of the business cards on the way back. My bad.

Also (not in the video), https://www.manikin-electronic.com/ - they gave me an extensive demo of their Memotron Keyboard, which as a Mellotron clone with a great keyboard. It was super fun to play, but they talked so fast and enthusiastically that I had no time to restart and set up audio recorder and camera. ;-)

Superbooth 2023: Industrial Music Electronics - Stilson Hammer MK3 and More
video upload by sonicstate
"At Superbooth 2023, we spoke to the legend that is Scott Jaeger from Industrial Music Electronics (formerly Harvestman) about the new products he has on display. First up is the Stilson Hammer Mark III, a redesigned version of the Mark II sequencer with improved reliability and added features such as gate buttons for each track, extra gate or CV outputs per track, and an OLED display. The Mark III also boasts an improved quantizer, the ability to back up sequences to SD card, and an enhanced song mode and preset chaining. Jaeger explains that the OLED display provides immediate feedback of the internal memory states and helps with chaining patterns into a song, allowing for more powerful performance gestures and individualized style of playing.
Jaeger also demonstrated the Andre Jr., a VCA-based analog low-pass gate circuit with a dual digital envelope generator that can be modulated to develop the dynamics of a sequence through careful modulation of the envelope's velocity. However, the most significant module on display is the Volkmire's Inferno, a granular synthesizer that can load WAV files from an SD card or record from a live input. With independent pitch and playback speed control, the grain generation can be further modified with various parameters such as density and turbidity, providing a unique and customizable sound. The prototype also features a diffuser effect with a feedback loop, assignable CV inputs, trigger inputs for transport control, and a stereo spread control. Industrial Music Electronics is hoping to produce these prototypes by the end of the year.

What Does a Filter Do? (Modular Synth 101 | Part 4)

"For the next episode in this series, I take a closer look at voltage controlled filters or VCFs. Filters are one of the most important sound shaping components within a synthesizer."

https://lfo.store/
"The truth is born in the experiment! We took the most of the legendary Korg Opsix synthesizer, using sophisticated modulation techniques and FM synthesis circuits to produce outstanding, vibrant sounds that can take musical compositions to the next level! Now we can safely state that we succeeded!
This unique soundbank is full of flowing arpeggios, deeply immersive pads, non-trivial effects, piercing plucks, bright and memorable leads and much more! These 50 exclusive presets were created by the well-known sound designer, Otto K. Schwarz, and suitable for both hardware and software versions of the synthesizer.
