"Creating a, sort of, old defective piano sound, adds some more parts, and then morph the piano sound into a bell sound :)
All sounds, except for the noise sound, is made using the ladder filers.
Hope that you will enjoy. www.gotharman.dk"

"Isn't it obvious? The Digitone is the goated one. The god emperor synthesizer of 2024. 16 stereo tracks, multiple synth engines, 3 LFO's, new note entry mode, scales, editable arps, Looping pages, kits, macro control, master compressor, 16 part multitimbral. amd soon.. overbridge for individual outs via USB. Wtf.. name another synthesizer that can beat that. I'll wait."
"Join me as I dive into a bluesy rock ballad created entirely on the MPC X SE! Starting with the Soulful Rhodes patch on the Yamaha YC, I built out the track using the Stage E' for electric piano, added layers of the Organ plugin, and wrapped it all up with a punchy bass line on Fabric XL. Watch as this song idea comes to life, showcasing the power and versatility of the MPC X SE.

"Welcome to the soundset for the semi-modular synthesizer Behringer Model 15. "Explorer" is a collection of 50 experimental yet usable patches: 12 Leads, 10 Basses, 9 Plucks, 10 Arps, 6 Drones, and 3 Chords. 💾 This soundset offers aggressive, bright, detuned, freaky, noisy, atonal, metallic, generative, evolving, and rhythmic timbres. It stands in contrast to my previous release, "Analog Classics," where I focused on more regular, basic, and classical timbres. In the "Explorer" bank of presets, I aimed to dive deeper into the modular nature of the Model 15, pushing its boundaries to achieve the most interesting and exciting results.
🎨 Some timbres are designed to take the lead in a track or jam session, while others work perfectly as complementary elements. While the patches are ready to use as they are, I highly recommend tweaking the knobs during your performance to further develop the sound and enhance your creative experience.
🥁 These presets are versatile and suitable for a wide range of genres, including ambient, electronica, IDM, deep techno, house, progressive, trance, lounge, downtempo, pop, chill out, new age, cinematic, breaks, synthwave, retrowave, dub, and more.
📚 The soundset is provided as a PDF document, with each page containing detailed notes that explain how each patch works, which parameters are worth tweaking during playback, and how to evolve the timbre during a performance. By following these notes and making adjustments consciously, you’ll not only get the most out of the patches but also gain a deeper understanding of the synth itself, uncovering its full potential and creative depth.
🎧 Each patch comes with an audio example to help you understand how the timbre is intended to sound, making it easier to integrate into your productions. To recreate these patches, you will need up to 8 patch cables.
💡 I added pads and drum loops for the video demo to place the presets in a musical context. These drums and pads are not included in the soundset. I added third-party delay and reverb to the video demo."
