video upload by Supercritical Synthesizers
"In this episode, we'll give you an update on the development of the Redshift 6, and also share some memories from our recent trip to Buchla and Friends in Los Angeles. We have just released the first firmware update for the Redshift 6 and it's available at our website. The Firmware Update 1.1 brings USB MIDI, new modulation destinations such as: Character, Detune, envelope Attack, Decay, Sustain & Release and also new presets from Kebu.
You can check out our public roadmap to see what is coming. We also have a blog on our website, where we will share updates on the development of the Redshift 6 and occasionally dive deeper into various technical subjects. There is also a Discord server, if you want to discuss the roadmap or technical details with us directly, the link is also on our homepage."

Four voice RSF polyphonic Kobol rack
video upload by yusynthman
"This is a video of Olivier Grall testing it's very rare polyphonic (4 voices) kobol rack (RSF) he purchased in the beginning of the eighties. Les than 10 of these were built by Ruben Fernandes. I had the chance to overhaul it and this is a video of the testing."
Korg Monopoly Melodic Electronic Song

"Quick jam on the Korg Monopoly sequencing it from the Elektron Analog Keys and some reverb from the Strymon Bigsky Mx. Background pads are the Access Virus and a Korg Minilogue. Moog Mother 32 on the bass. Recorded into Ableton."

T-16 Semi-Modular Analog Synthesizer (based on ARP 2600) - DEMO #001
video upload by Nitecaller.
"The T-16 is a custom semi-modular synth largely based on the analog circuits of the original ARP 2600 and ARP Odyssey, with additional modifications and modules.
Here's an initial sound exploration I recorded shortly after completing the project (with no added effects or processing).
Special thanks to Stefan Hambleton for helping with the build of this instrument!
Check out my music: linktr.ee/nitecaller"
"After two years of designing, soldering, assembling and a looot of troubleshooting, this mighty thing is finally finished (aside from some minor tweaks). I can’t really believe it yet, but it’s extremely exciting nonetheless. I’m not entirely sure what to do now that it’s done, but I suppose it is time to start making some cool sounds and writing new music? Anyway, stay posted for more T-16 content!
And big thanks to @hot.chip5 @alyndyh and @xavier.joseph.dlmh for the help and support along the way."
#1: 4/4 A# Lydian GREAT CONJUNCTION, Phantasmal Force, M8, NTS-3
video upload by Arman Bohn
"If you happen to be west of Tokyo in Chofu, around 9ish on April 14th, 2025 … you might hear something similar to this bubbling up near Shibasaki Station.
I hope I can work out all the details in the next few weeks!"
Switchback Descent
video upload by davidryle
"The great Vector Sequencer from Five12. I am using it for a pair of simple 16 step sequences to the 5U modular by way of CV and Gate.
The clock is derived from the Moon Modular 553 Midi to Clock module. I used the 1/96th division and a start gate to tap the sync24 feature in the Vector. I do have an STG bus but the sync bus cable wouldn't reach out of the cabinet to the Vector. The other clock pulses are from the STG Time Divider.
The first patch is run to a pair of Q206 VCO's and the Q150 filter and then on to the Echo Fix tape delay. Stereo panning was from the Q158 VCA++ and a Mega Ohm LFO. The Ian Fritz Hypster by Synthetic Sound Labs is a modulation source for the decay stage of the STG Envelop Generator.
The bass line patch is a pair of STG Oscillators to a pair of Mega Ohm MA20's in low and high pass series. The SSL Tube VCA is used to add some drive. The Frequency Central Stasis Leak stereo chorus finishes the patch chain.
The third patch is a drone pad line from the Dove D900 sequencer to the WTF Oscillator and the Oakley SVF in Notch mode. The slow center frequency modulation from a second Mega Ohm LFO does a nice job of combing through the upper mids of the complex waveforms out of the WTF. The last part of the patch is through the Empress Reverb in green ghost mode.
The Vector is the first edition mk1 but still has quite the feature set. I was using a modulation lane for transpose to the pair of pitch sequences. This same transpose sequence was replicated on the Q960 with a second Q960 as a divider. The pitch voltages for the WTF were combined in the unity mixer of the STG Active Multiples module. I did use the Q171 Quantixer Bank for precision stepping from the Q960.
All sounds captured at once in a single take to Cubase 12. Video edited in Final Cut Pro.
Special thanks to Ron Sunsinger for the loan of the Vector and Adam Fritsche for the Stasis Leak module."
Synth Show - Ep216 - Exploring the Sequential Trigon 6
video upload by GEOSynths
"The Trigon 6 by Sequential is the 3rd in the series of 4 Octave Synthesizers released by them over the past 10 years, which started with the Prophet 6, a very well recieved and great Sounding Synth, then the OB6 which is my personal favorite Synth of all time, for those lovely Notch and Frothy Pads/Strings. The Trigon 6 was released in 2022 and I made a Review when I got it.
My Review of the trigon 6 - [posted here]
So having released 3 Banks each for the Prophet 6 and OB6, I released 1 Bank for the Trigon 6 a couple of years ago and loved the range of sounds I was getting and how different it can be compared to the other 2. So, it’s coming back on the Desk for a bit more exploration!
