"Circuit Bent Yamaha QY70
I have explored the brains of this classic piece of gear and returned with a selection of circuit bends I deem worthy.
10 toggle switches can activate 10 data crushing ROM based hacks one knob acts as a "character" control, panning it left or right changes how the toggle switches behave.
Describing the sounds this thing makes in words is useless, so check out the demo video listed above!
Please note: the battery compartment has been removed to make space for the new switches, it can only be powered by its DC input"

Exploring the Synamodec - Levitate Expansion
video upload by NOISEBUG
"The Synamodec Levitate Expansion will take your noisy distorted synth drones to new heights. Equipped with a bunch of droning oscillators, filters, delay, echo, phaser, distortion, fuzz VCA + LFO and a nice set of ins/outs, this bad boy is ready to get nasty. As a standalone machine The #LevitateExpansion is fully capable of creating novel landscapes of noise and wobbly Karplus-Strong effects. However, as an effects processor for external drum machines/audio sources; the expansion really comes to life. Push the internal oscillators mixed with external sources to the point of saturation and beyond. Feedback is also a main factor here. Thanks to the semi-modular features, you can reroute the signal paths to your hearts content."

FREE! Synthesizer Expander Module | Cherry Audio
video upload by Cherry Audio
"In celebration of the 2023 holiday season and Cherry Audio's fifth year, we've released the FREE Synthesizer Expander Module, a virtual instrument plugin based on a classic 1974 analog synthesizer.
Get it today! https://cherryaudio.com/santa
Synthesizer Expander Module is Cherry Audio's free emulation of the classic self‑contained synthesizer module of the same name. Though it was a simple, barebones monosynth, the Synthesizer Expander Module possessed a unique tone quality, courtesy of its 12 dB/oct state-variable filter. With lowpass, bandpass, highpass, and notch modes, this flexible filter was the star of the show. We've precisely recreated it here with a filter section and Phasor effect programmed by award-winning synth designer Mark Barton (MRB).
