"This little combo is really cool!!
Since Benjamin Poilvé sent me the minichord (a smaller version of the omnichord) to test, I've been trying to find a place for it alongside the tiny rack, and the whole thing works well. The Gliss from @BelaPlatform through the Plinky, Buzzrito (+ Bib for effects) from @bluespoonery adds its variations.
Other modules used are the farbfolder from @MakingSoundMachines the disting mk4 from @ExpertSleepersLtd for reverb and mixer xoh from @MAKEN0ISEMUSIC
All candycords cables come from @myvolts1903"
"A piece created using the @teenageengineering OP-1 field, YAMAHA TENORI-ON, and a tape loop. Gritty, tape-processed piano sounds blend with granular electronic tones.
The OP-1 field records and loops a synth harmony, with its output deeply reverberated using the MOTHER effect.
The TENORI-ON creates sequences in real time with its BOUNCE layer, processed through @ChaseBlissAudio LOSSY to add reverb, lo-fi effects, and filtering.
For the tape loop, a piano performance is pre-recorded and then processed with delay using @gfisys SPECULAR TEMPUS, with volume adjustments to bring sounds in and out."
"Integer is a digital-analog buffer delay effect designed and developed by Sinevibes. Available as a plugin for KORG prologue, minilogue xd, NTS-1, NTS-1 mkII and NTS-3. Product page: https://www.sinevibes.com/korginteger/"
"This is my cover of the hypnotic and beautifully crafted track ‘Fantas’ by Caterina Barbieri. It was introduced to me by my brother (who helped design the PCBs for my synth!) and I’ve always been perplexed by the rhythms and sounds that she creates. It took me a while to transcribe this one, but I think it really brings this instrument to life.
[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.]

"Ken ‘Flux' Pierce from Ashun Sound Machines gives us a deep dive on the Hydrasynth Explorer, a synth designed with simplicity in mind. Despite its size and the fact it can even run on batteries, the Hydrasynth Explorer is not light on for features, or in-depth sound design features.
Almost everything can be modulated, controlled, or otherwise sculpted by touching the relevant parameter buttons. Assigning LFO control, creating a sequence, and modulating any parameter with almost anything else is remarkably easy."
The Doppler is a polyphonic, 2-operator FM synthesizer with a unique approach to sculpting, tweakability, and has 8-note polyphony. It's designed for sonic exploration, where every knob twist reveals a new sound that's uniquely your own.
Ultra-tweakability is at the core of the Doppler. It features a single, powerful algorithm, but the magic happens when you start adjusting its parameters. Even the subtlest tweaks lead to big shifts in the overall sound, making every turn feel like a discovery.
At the heart of the Doppler areThe Doppler is controlled via MIDI through a USB-C port, making it easy to integrate into your setup. Most modern, class-compliant MIDI controllers with USB functionality will plug in and work instantly with no setup required. Plus, the Doppler powers your controller, simplifying your cord management. For older controllers with only DIN connections, a USB-to-DIN converter works wonderfully.
two sine waves that form the foundation of its sound. The modulator wave is quantized and can modulate both the carrier's phase and frequency—or both at once for even more complexity. The carrier wave can even be sent through a feedback loop to modulate itself. Plus, there's a 9-octave pink noise source to modulate the carrier, adding texture and a lo-fi grit.
The modulator sine wave features two rotary switches that control its frequency through a quantized octave and semitone shift. The Octave rotary switch offers a 5 octave range, allowing you to go two octaves above and two octaves below the carrier’s frequency. The Semitone rotary switch gives you a 12-semitone range, from the base note up to 11 semitones above. Both switches click into place and are perfectly quantized in relation to the carrier's frequency.
The Doppler features a standard ADSR envelope, but there are a couple of cool nuances that really enhance its functionality. By default, the ADSR envelope only affects the carrier wave. However, when you flip the Env Mod toggle on, the envelope also influences the amount of frequency modulation applied to the carrier. On top of that, the Mod Trail knob lengthens the attack value, but only on the modulator wave. This gives you the ability to make the modulation swell in, adding an extra layer of depth.
