Lisa Bella Donna - “Our Children Deserve a Warless World” (in-studio session).


video upload by Lisa Bella Donna

"Studio session, instant composition with the Moog Sound Studio and a few spices from the large modular system.

A simple piece and prayer of kinder days for our kids coming up in this world. Children are the true believers in the dreams of our future. Let’s leave something more for them…

In love & music,
Lisa Bella Donna"

Syntheast 2025 - Impressions, Interviews and Performances


video upload by sonicstate

"Syntheast was on a couple of weeks back, now in its third year, it's become a well established synth show with exhibitors, performances, and talks - and a friendly vibe.

Regular contributor Paulee Bow (‪@magicalsynthadventure3216‬ ) had a slot playing an improvised set with the organizer Robin Vincent (‪@MoltenMusicTech‬ ) so we sent them a phone trig to capture some of the people and performances from the 3 day event.

Thanks to those who spoke to Paulee and Robin Vincent for the additional footage.

Korg multi/poly native: First Look and Listen, Micro-review! (Live from Margaritaville)


video upload by Keith Crosley

"At long last, Korg multi/poly native has arrived! Now you can have the awesome virtual analog sound of multi/poly on your desktop (in standalone mode) or as a VST in your DAW. Of course, it sounds exactly like the hardware... Which is to say, it sounds wonderful. I run through some of my previous Korg multi/poly patches (featured in my previous three-part review and deep dive series), talk briefly about the 3 oscillators, give you a quick look at the interface, and show off a few new wavetable sounds based on the "timbral extraction" techniques from KRC Orchestral Impressions. Also, I'm wasting away in Margaritaville -- literally -- so grab your shaker of salt and join me for this yacht-rock-a-go-go episode of your favorite talky synthesizer content show.

"If you know what this is, you know the deal. If you don’t, i can just tell you that it is the best of the best modern boutique synthesizers. Ken Macbeth is a genius, and this is a masterpiece.

In excellent condition, but the spring reverb kind of comes and goes. My guess is a loose connection, but I haven’t opened it to check."

"A Cosmetically Gorgeous example of a vintage minimoog and in fully functional condition. This Minimoog has been fully serviced, restored and calibrated and built with the Rosen Sound rebuild kit. This Minimoog features the early oscillator board which has been attributed to a more raw and beefier sound. The Cabinet was professionally restored by Mosquito Fleet Design."

Jen Syntar Analog Monophonic MIDI Mod. 1978 SN 233

"This synth is in excellent condition and perfectly working.

The sound is big, gritty, fatty as you expect from an all analog synth and the filter really scream out loud!!!

Syntar is an analog monophonic synth born to be played with guitar via an hexaphonic pickup. The synth is now converted by Mad Rooster Lab to be played via standard MIDI!!!

It has 2 VCO both are capable of triangle, saw and pulse/square waves. VCO2 is tuned relatively to VCO1 in order to obtain some fat detuning or those classic 5ths and 7ths. Sound is fed though a lowpass VCF (24dB/oct) before reaching the VCA. VCA and VCF have independent envelopes of the atypical ADS variety (no release).

Voltage 220v."
