New Keyboard Manufacturer Medeli Enters US Market
Press release follows:
Medeli makes musical moves to Medeli makes musical moves to enter US market, challenging competitors within arranger keyboard and digital piano segments
LOS ANGELES, CA, USA/HONG KONG, CHINA: Medeli — one of the world’s largest electronic musical instrument manufacturers, mostly known as a contract manufacturer for many well-known brands in the industry, as well as being the owner of music hardware brand Ashun Sound Machines (ASM), itself acknowledged as the creator of the critically-acclaimed Hydrasynth digital wave morphing synthesizer series — is proud to announce that it is entering the US market in a big way, perfectly positioned to challenge competitors within the arranger keyboard and digital piano segments, mainly, as of January 10…
It is fair to say that high-quality products at competitive pricing, a dedicated sales and support team, and the combined experience of industry veterans benefitting from serious stints at Arturia, Elektron, and Yamaha will constitute key driving forces to promptly propel the Medeli brand’s stateside success, with the following new models becoming available there throughout 2025.

CP203 (MAP: $779.99 USD) delivers a beautiful sound and modern look in a compact design, making it an ideal choice for pianists of all abilities who are concerned about saving space.
A Visit to Synthesizers.com
video upload by George B.
"I had the privilege to visit the folks at DotCom. I brought my camera just to get some video of the large 110 space modular in their showroom and I'm trying to learn this new camera. Mike suggested I video behind the scenes and encouraged me to post it so the public can have a peek. This is in no way an advertisement and I'm not compensated in any way other than to get to see my favorite synthesizer company making modules!
I have an 88 space system that I bought and love what they do."
Tobinski Sequencer - Complex Pattern Generation
video upload by Tobinski
"A quick example patch to show how the Tobinski Sequencer can be internally routed to create longer more complex patterns.
This is just an example of some of the flexibility of this sequencer. Much more complex patterns can be created using the direction inputs and summed CV outs etc. but hopefully this gives an idea of the kinds of techniques that can be used."

via Raw Analog Sound
"The bonkers module is a dual, versatile, fully analogue sound processor and signal generator. It features two channels, each with two drive stages. Drive1 offers six clipping modes, and Drive2 provides two, delivering a wide range of distortion flavors from subtle saturation to extreme fuzz.
This module generates aggressive, punchy, and wild variations of the original unprocessed sound, transforming any clean sound into a distorted monster.
It allows kick drums and bass lines to coexist effectively with envelope follower and sidechain. Shapes any sound with a 3-band EQ. Functions as a signal generator capable of self-oscillation at any frequency even without input. Adds sub-octave tones to melodies and bass lines. Preserves dynamic range and clarity through parallel processing. Adds character, flexibility and madness to any source.
One of the must things to do with bonkers is to connect the same (or 2 different) dry kick drum(s) or drum loop(s) to both channels. Process them with different settings, and use the crossfader to create balanced and smooth or raw and rough transitions between them.
*It designed for live performances.
**It can be used in stereo applications."
