Patch Notes: output is one of the HSO outs (the other is just going to the oscilloscope), through the VCA. The V/O input is driven by a keyboard going through one Inertia which is giving it just a bit of portamento. That Inertia also has pitch cv negatively modulating the rate so that it slews less on lower frequencies. The keyboard trigger output is going to some manual switches (ADDAC 304) so I can control which envelope to trigger. Two Inertias are acting as envelopes, one for the more percussive sound and one for the melodic sound. They’re joined in Babel via the ANY (maximum) out and sent to the VCA. The Inertia doing the percussive envelope also has the second order out going to the harmonic stride CV; the Inertia doing the melodic envelope has the second order going to the harmonic level cv. Last, pitch cv is going to the percussive inertia fall time, such that higher notes fall faster than lower notes."

Jouranalogue Introduces Bias 2

Joranalogue Audio Design BIAS 2 / quick but extensive playthrough / offset, mix, average, scale, ...

video upload by BRiES

"In this video about BIAS 2 by Joranalogue Audio Design I showcase how the module operates and how you can use it for precision mixing, dividing or averaging, offsetting, amplification, scaling, etc. I added 2 pratical use cases to demonstrate BIAS 2s usefulness."

"Voltage control is the basic tenant of modular synthesis: parameters may be modulated by changing control voltages (CVs), simply by plugging in a patch cable. However, during patching it's common to encounter incompatible voltage ranges, with signal outputs and inputs having different amplitudes and sensitivities.

An indispensable utility module, Bias 2 provides a compact yet precise solution to quickly interface signals between modules within a Eurorack modular system, without interrupting your creativity.

Comprising of two independent sections, each with dual inputs and dual outputs, its carefully selected combination of normalised reference voltages and amplification/attenuation factors makes it a breeze to convert between the most common signal ranges: –5 to +5 V, 0 to +5 V and 0 to +10 V.

Precision comes standard on Bias 2, with meticulously engineered analogue signal paths providing absolutely transparent performance for any Eurorack signal: CV, audio or gates/triggers.

Beyond the voltage conversion application, Bias 2 is a true all-rounder, capable of functioning as a pair of dual input unity gain mixers, –6 and +6 dB audio gain stages or a multi-output fixed voltage source."

Quasimidi Sirius synth with VintageRack and GlitchScaper apps

video upload by Igor Vasiliev

"Quick demo of Quasimidi Sirius synth patterns processed by VintageRack app, with noisy background generated by GlitchScaper app. Apps works as audio units in AUM host.

More details about these apps: https://motion-soundscape.blogspot.com

These apps are universal for iOS and macOS. They can work on iPhone and iPad as well as Mac/MacBook with M1 chip (and newer).

GlitchScaper is a rhythm machine with six sound generators, each controlled by a two-layer cycle sequencer, designed to easily create glitchy patterns and scapes.

VintageRack is a minimalistic and convenient multi-effect application that contains modules realistically simulating notable retro gear from the early digital age with their natural lo-fi and warm aesthetics."

Which do you want for the ELZ_1 play? [Physical Modelling String Engine vs Shimmer Reverb?]

video upload by SONICWARE

"Physical Modelling String Engine vs Shimmer Reverb

Thanks to your support, the planned production run of 200 units of 'ELZ_1 play' sold out early. Thank you very much!

In response to requests from customers who are interested in purchasing 'ELZ_1 play'. We had negotiated with the factory to manufacture 50 more units.

The additional 50 units will be shipped in November and we have started pre-orders them today.

And also, as a token of our appreciation, we would like to set a stretch goal for when the total number of units sold reaches 250 units.

For the stretch goal, please poll for which feature you think is more appropriate for ELZ_1 play!

Sequential REV2 | Revelations Patch Bank

video upload by MIDERA

"I had access to the Sequential REV2 for 1 month and decided to make a patch bank with it. In 2019 I had a REV2 desktop and made some patches that I really liked, so I decided to finish the bank of patches and sell them. Please visit here for details on how to purchase these patches: https://www.midera-artist.com/synthes...

I chose to not use any external effects for these patches. Everything you hear can be achieved using the REV2 by itself. These patches will install on Bank 1 of your REV2. I do not think it is backwards compatible with the Prophet 08 unfortunately.

I wrote my review of the REV2 here as well:

Ursa Major Space Station SST-206 overview demo ((Worlds first??))

video upload by manmade madman

"This is a demo of the amazing Ursa Major Space Station SST-206, an exact replica of the 3 rack unit Space Station SST-282 from 1978. It was released in back in 2004 with the exact same algorithms, features, and functionality, but with an upgraded 140MHz Motorola DSP as a passion project from Chris Moore at his company named Seven Woods Audio. He also included modern versions of the algorithms, as well as a new Room algorithm that is incredibly realistic.
This demo includes a few sets of drums and then a random saxophone running thru the Ursa Major. I tried to show all the algorithms and 'audition delay patterns' along with knob movements and dialing in craziness.

To my ears, this is exactly what it says it is: a 1:1 Ursa Major Space Station in a modern convenient size with tons of hands-on control."

Vintage Roland Promars Synthesizer

via this auction

"It's in very nice condition for its age with only a few scrapes and marks here and there. It plays very nice but does have a little noise in audio...sounds like it is before the filter but its not terrible. everything does function as it should and has a great sound. This is basically a monophonic Jupiter 4 but has a extra VCO which really makes this thing powerful.

It's one of my favorite Roland synths and does use the same filter found in the Jupiter 8 so it has a very warm organic resonance unlike some of the other Roland models after this era.

This unit is corrosion free, caught this one before the memory backup battery leaked and I modified the circuit to use a Panasonic BR1/2AA instead of the original battery style."

KAWAI TEISCO S-100F | Analog Synthesizer 1979 | Sound Demo (no talking)

video upload by AnalogAudio1

"(c) 2023 by AnalogAudio1

The Kawai (Teisco) S-100F is a great little monophonic analog synth. It only has 1 VCO, but lowpass and highpass filters and some interesting modulation routings! Although it's limited, the basic sound is excellent. It reminds me a bit of the ARP 2600. The VCO has a huge range - very low and very high frequencies are possible. Built like a tank, best quality made in Japan, high quality hardware, easy to repair.

I played the Kawai S-100F with delay effects from Korg SDD-3000 (right channel only). On the left channel you can hear the synth dry."
