Intellijel Sealegs

video upload by Intellijel

"Our design goal for Sealegs was to create the warmest, most musical and organic delay module possible — something that would sweeten and enhance any audio one chose to feed into it. As such, great care has gone into modeling the most distinctive and desirable sonic characteristics of three different types of delay circuits: Tape, Bucket Brigade, and Crossfading Digital.
A plethora of onboard controls enable you to dial in exactly the sound you want; synced or un-synced delays times (for both left and right channels); saturating input drive; a built-in modulator with 7 morphing waveshapes, Wow & Flutter emulation, and an envelope follower; plus dedicated low- and high-pass filters; built-in hiss & crackle noises; per-model color controls; a spacious reverb; and a re-configurable signal flow through the unit. In addition, attenuverted modulation inputs abound — ensuring the delay ebbs and flows with your musical needs.

Features:
- Three Unique delay models — Tape, Bucket Brigade, and Crossfading Digital
- Per-model Color, Modulation behavior, and Saturation/Limiting
- True Stereo delay with separate L/R buffers
- Three Stereo configurations (PONG, Time/Width, L/R)
- Three Range variations for short Chorus/Flanger style delays to Long ambient repeats.
- Up to 6(L) and 8(R) seconds of delay time (Width can add up to 33% to Time)
- Built-in modulator with Wow & Flutter, Envelope Follower, and 7 morphing wave shapes
- Lush 1970s-inspired reverb with 3 insert positions.
- Saturating input drive with level trim
- Stable external clock (or tap tempo) sync for Delay Times or Modulation
- Highpass and Lowpass filters for filtered repeats
- Freeze functionality for holding the buffer and looping
- Nine CV inputs with attenuverters
- 96 kHz 24-bit Stereo I/O and 32-bit floating point internal processing"

【自作シンセ】アナログライクなFMシンセサイザーをラズパイPicoとArduinoで作ってみた。OP-F Synthesizer

video upload by Harumio 1529

Harumio also brought us the DIY Prophet 4.

"趣味で作ったオリジナルのシンセを紹介する動画です。
OP-FのFは、4オペレータであること、ラズパイ1個当たり4polyである、福岡で作られたこと、僕の頭文字であることなどから名付けました。
いままでで一番編集が大変でした。最後まで見てね。"

"This video introduces an original synth that I made as a hobby.
The F in OP-F was named because it has 4 operators, 4poly per Raspberry Pi, was made in Fukuoka, and is my initial.
This was the hardest edit I've ever done. Watch till the end."

Moog Mother32 - "Cosmos" Soundset (32 Patches)

video upload by LFOstore

https://lfo.store/

"LFO Store presents a revolutionary soundset for Moog Mother-32 - a semi-modular monophonic analog synthesizer! A feature of this bank is the use of non-standard modulation techniques with the mixture of external audio noise effects (samples). Therefore, very interesting sounds are obtained, which are suitable for both classical electronic music and experimental styles.

In this soundbank you will find completely different settings - from long and atmospheric drone effects, short plucks, catchy leads and even pads that can be layered for a bright analog sound! Each patch is sketched in detail and accompanied by a description of the preferred modulation parameters and the external sounds used. These patches will be very handy for both live performances and studio work.

This year, our team has implemented the Analog 2023 Series project and has already created several hundred patches for analog synthesizers such as Wasp, Cat, Neutron and others. Thus, we have accumulated considerable experience in creating quality products for analog synthesizers. This soundset is suitable for both professionals who are interested in improving their skills, and beginners, who just started their first sound design steps.

The product pack contains:

♪ The booklet in .pdf format with high quality pictures of every of 32 hand-crafted patches created by the well-known sound designers, Otto K. Schwarz;
♪ Audio Examples of each patch in .mp3 format;
♪ External audio samples in .wav format."

Groove Synthesis 3rd Wave OS 1.5 Update Adds MPE Support, Poly Unison, Free Running OSCS & Long LFOs

via Groove Synthesis

3rd Wave OS version 1.5

new in this release:

- support for MIDI MPE controllers - enable MPE from the GLOBAL menu and explore the new modulation sources at the end of the list. Pitch bend range can be set in the MISC menu

- option for free running analog oscillators in the MISC menu which is settable per patch - In the analog waveform mode, which you are using when you select the Axx waveforms like Saw and Square, now has the option to make the waveforms not reset when you start a new note. In this mode, the oscillators will continue to drift from each other as they do on some fully analog synthesizers. There are two side effects if you are using free running for the analog waveforms:

1. When two or more oscillators are running at the same time, the phase of the waveforms will not be reset and could start at any position. As a result, there will be phase cancellation compared to having the oscillators always start at the same point. What you will hear is that the notes will change volume level slightly as the oscillators start and also drift in and out of phase with each other.

2. In the normal mode the oscillator always starts at zero. Now it could start at any point in its phase position. That means when you hit a note, a single oscillator could be at 0, +1.0, -1.0, or anywhere in between. If it starts at or close to +1.0 ot -1.0, you are going from no sound to fully on immediately. This can cause a click at the beginning of the note depending on the phase. It is noticeable mostly when using a sine wave, and not too noticeable with something like a saw or square. If you want to use this free running mode, turn the attack time up to +20 or higher to quickly fade in and avoid the potential click.

UNO Synth Pro X - Review - Sonic LAB

video upload by sonicstate

"We take a look at the new Uno Synth Pro X from IK Multimedia - rather than a fully new instrument, this is an update for their Uno Synth Pro Desktop which we really enjoyed when we took a look. The X is only available in this form and adds a whole lot of extra UI and physical controls to ultimately the same (or very similar) synth engine.

There are however some differences:-
New Hardware UI with metal top plate (no capacitive touch keyboard and strips)
Additional Envelope Generator ENV3
USB-C connection for MIDI (and included additional PSU with separate connection)
Vib and Chorus Ensemble in place of flange and phase
Shimmer Reverb Algorithm
Bassline Mode - modifies the behaviour of the synth engine, adds accenting controls to the sequencer.

Available now priced at £510(ish) and around $499 Street

Ekzil - "Stellar clouds": Circuit Track / Microfreak / Volca bass

video upload by Geoffroy AULAGNER

"This is my new song produced with my favorite setup !
I really enjoyed creating this new "pluck" sound on the Arturia Microfreak. The modulation matrice offers countless possibilities 🤩

My setup 🎹:
Microfreak : arpeggio, melody 1
Volca Bass: bass, melody 2
Novation Circuit Tracks: Chords, drums, bass
Korg NTS-1 / potarbox: reverb, ping pong delay, transition

This semi-improvised jam was performed and recorded live to a stereo output. As usual, I have edited the mix in Ableton to make sure I'm getting the best volume out of the track."

Exploring anomalies with the Boss RC505 MKII Looper!

"This is NOT a performance, but just a fun synth geek hang out.

I'll be talking about gear, exploring some presets on the Arturia MiniFreak and experimenting with some very basic live looping on the Roland SP505 MKII."

The Chapel - Outdoor Live Performance | Akai MPC Live 2 | Digitakt | Arturia Microfreak Stellar

video upload by KeyRides

"One day while working, I passed this beautiful ruined 15th century chapel.
I knew immediately that I wanted to come back here to make music.

So I got up on this beautiful summer morning and drove to the chapel.

This is one of my very first live performances using the MPC Live 2 paired with the Elektron Digitakt and the amazing Microfreak by Arturia.

I hope you like it.

Enjoy?!

Filmed with Panasonic Lumix G70, G9 and DJI Mini 3. Recorded directly to Zoom H5.
