Location: Northern Germany
Contact: xu.sounddesign@gmx.net

I´m playing my soundpack 'RALAXATION'.

No external effects were used. All effects are internal effects of the Wavestate. No other hardware was used. No compressor, no limiter, no equalizer, nothing, but the pure Wavestate.

No DAW, no post-editing, everything was played live.

No additional samples are used, but purely the factory samples of the Wavestate.

If you´re interested in my soundpacks, please send me an email (xu.sounddesign@gmx.net). Please check your spam-folder."

Best Ambient Synth Shootout #137: SammichFM - Song 2


video upload by Christian's Sonic Spaces

"This is the second recording with the SammichFM. It is a streamlined, compact version of the MIDIbox FM synthesizer DIY kit. Designed around the OPL3 chip YMF262 (4-Operators with 4 different waves), which was a famous sound chip from the 8 bit computer era (e.g. Sound Blaster 16 soundcard), it can play 4-sounds with 6-voice polyphony each.

I used for the recording the following FX pedals:
Line 6 DL4 MkII, GFI System Specular Reverb 2, OTO Boum.

The signal went through a Presonus StudioLive 16.0.2 into the PC via USB for recording. To create the complete song I recorded consecutively several stereo tracks. On some tracks Compressor and EQ where added in Cubase 13. The final song was then mastered using iZotope Ozone.

Well, I decided to go back to the basics, but at the same time make something useful for the synth community and do a kind of competition (I like competitions;-). What's my best synth for ambient music :-)"

FFS - For Fuzz Sake (Super Fuzz Face!) || By After Later Audio


video upload by Robots Are Red

"FFS is based on the famed Fuzz Face guitar pedal, but with extremely broken out controls for both the Germanium and Silicon sections of the Fuzz.

Jump to any section here:
00:00 - Opening
00:43 - Overview
02:24 - Deep Demo
08:25 - Self Oscillation
10:50 - Rings through FFS
17:57 - Drums through FFS
24:15 - Moog Style Patch through FFS
26:41 - Guitar through FFS
32:41 - Some Music"



"Two fuzz channels based on the fuzz face circuit with a built-in pickup simulator.

Gnarly is a 7 knob beast that will destroy whatever you throw at it. It has many dead zones in the pots that will adjust based on the position of other pots. It's all about finding the sweet spots and living on those fine edges. The transistor pairs on this section are replaceable.

Oomph is a 5 knob bass friendly take on the fuzz face and compliments the upper harmonics of the Gnarly section. Pickup simulator - Fuzz circuits offer unique sound when paired with the inductance of the pickup coils in a guitar. This why it is often suggested to have fuzz pedals as your first in a pedal chain. So we've built-in a coil to simulate your eurorack signal being emitted by a guitar pickup. We've also included a pickup simulator output so you can use it to interface with other fuzz instruments (pedals, modules, etc.). As an added oddness - you can also input your guitar into the pickup sim output (just don't plug anything into the normal input). This will still get you Eurorack level output. Please don't input Eurorack levels into the pickup sim output.

Tips - Experiment with the pickup simulator and buffered signal. Use the PS.Level to keep the signal low, borderline on cutting out. You find lots of joy in the gnarly section by keeping this level at the edge."
