Date of Manufacture 10/08/2022

"This rare and stunningly gorgeous instrument is a limited edition (#211 out of 222) Vermona '14 Analogsynthesizer, hand-made in Germany by the venerable boutique company Vermona.

The '14 is extremely fun to play and it sounds absolutely beautiful. The build quality is unparalleled. I have never owned something that was built so lovingly. The blue finish with wood cheeks looks incredible in person and the encoders are rock solid and smooth as velvet.

It will come with its original box, dust cover, sustain pedal, power supply, and excellent user guide. I will take extreme care in packing and shipping it safely to you."

Caught In Joy's Moog One Presets Pack Vol. 1


video upload by Caught In Joy

"The Moog One is often considered a "king of polysynths" due to several factors that make it highly regarded among synthesizer enthusiasts, it clearly stands out due to its unparalleled sound quality, achieved through the use of analog circuitry and high-quality components. Its three discrete analog VCOs per voice, along with powerful filters and modulation options, enable a vast sonic potential, allowing musicians to create rich, expressive sounds across a wide range of genres. Its versatility and depth make it a highly coveted instrument among professional musicians and sound designers.

Moog One to me is a real king of the unique sonic landscapes. Through my sound design choices and experimentation, I created presets that explore new sonic territories, revisit the old ones and push the boundaries of what the Moog One can do. By combining different synthesis techniques, modulation routings, and unconventional settings, you can uncover unique and captivating sounds that are not typically found in factory presets.

I hope these distinctive sonic landscapes will make your feel special and will inspire you to compose more music.

Here are 59 custom presets and patches for the Moog One (many of the patches consist of more than one layer/timbral, so there's actually way more than 59)."

Juno 106 Synthesizer Radiohead Kid A Electronic Harp Tone


video upload by Jerome Hogan

"Juno 106 Radiohead Kid A Electronic Harp Tone. The synth is in manual mode, you can approximate the fader settings seen in the video to replicate the tone.

A lot of people have asked me, how did you do it? The truth is, I got the Gelvini variant and it actually made me sick...

Broken beats w/ Pikocore, Dirtywave M8, Roland J-6, TE TX-6


video upload by Arman Bohn

"More experiments with the pikocore. Random chord triggering sent from the M8 to the J-6. The Pikocore is synced to the J-6 which is clocked to the M8.

I’m syncing key changes to the random chords as well. I think I’ll continue down this path towards actual pseudo random song creation … so possibly more M8 + J-6 combos in the near future. The modulation options on the J-6 are nonexistent sound design is incredibly limited. I could use another mini synth instead, maybe the great conjunction, or the kasser arcade. but that would take more cord wrangling in the m-8."

This is the first post to feature the pikocore.
