"What does Korg's microKORG 2 sound like? It sounds like this!

Well, at least it sounds like this at the moment, but as they clearly stated at their booth, the demo units were prototypes and the production version is not finished yet. Therefore, it only had 6 presets - all of which were named NAMM 'sonething'.

But still, here is a quick taste of the microKORG 2 sound engine as it stands today."

Yamaha SEQTRAK | Individual Synth Sounds

video upload by Sounds Like This

"What does Yamaha's SEQTRAK sound like? It sounds like this!

Well, a fraction of it anyway. It should come with more than 2000 preset sounds - and no keyboard...

So given the setting and time, I just browsed through the first couple of hundreds at the Yamaha booth at NAMM 2024.

Not really possible to make a lot of musical sense with just 7 small plastic pads, but hopefully you can get an idea of (some of) the included sounds."

Pam PRO Sync Guide

video upload by ALM TV

"Here we take a look at numerous ways to sync Pamela's PRO Workout with other hardware and software including syncing two Pams, external Din Sync, MIDI clock, LFO BPM modulation, the Pam Sync DAW plugin, and finally syncing the virtual Pam PRO in VCV Rack.

In general most forms of sync expect a standard 24PPQN clock and Run 'Din Sync' type signal set for the Clk and Run inputs. These settings can be changed from Pam's BPM menu to accomodate other common clock PPQN speeds and Run or Reset signals to align with the sync signals produced by other hardware devices."

We apologise for some audio distortion during parts of this report."

How To Make a Test Equipment Drum Machine

video upload by HAINBACH

"Test Equipment was for me always an experiment: using unmusical science, medical and engineering tools for music is Dark Souls level of synthesis difficulty. Coaxing tones out of them requires dedication and patience, but is very rewarding, both in developing new skills and musical results. I tried to stay to true to the tiny test equipment music world, shunning easy solutions to make it music, like using it with regular sequencers, sampling the wall or excessive editing in post. But after a few crucial pieces died off and repair costs sky-rocketed and I decided to combine it with Eurorack modular. I was very surprised by the result.
