Total K.O. II with Polivoks-m
video upload by Jarkko Tuohimaa
"Teenage Engineering K.O. II drum machine with Elta music Polivoks-mini synth module."
Characterless
video upload by Uncertain Music Corps
"Someone said to me they thought the DS-2 lacked character. So I thought I'd see what it made of that notion, without using external or internal patching. And recorded the result direct to camera.
Put this on decent speakers, accept that YouTube compression is lossy and decide for yourself."

NEW 2025 Optigan Disc - BIG BEAT & POLYRIMBA
video upload by optigandotcom
"https://www.quilterlabs.com/collectio...
BIG BEAT is the latest in our series of excavatons into the Optigan Archives in search of material that was left on the cutting room floor. The working title for this disc was “Motown 1 - Big Beat.” Previously only heard on the song “How Do You Feel?” by Optiganally Yours. The keyboard sound is also sourced from the Optigan Archives- we mixed several different solo trombone and trumpet scales to form a brass section. A version of this sound previously appeared on our Orchestron "Brass Ensemble" disc.
Special note: This groove was recorded at a slower tempo than usual, so turn your Optigan's Tempo knob down to achieve concert pitch."
NEW 2025 Panoptigon Disc - POLYRIMBA
video upload by optigandotcom
"Now available at https://www.quilterlabs.com/collectio...
POLYRIMBA is based on the 5-against-3 polyrhythm. The basic sound is the classic DX7 Marimba preset. Individual notes are steady pulses with accents in counts of 5 or 3. Holding down chords creates an ever-shifting series of syncopated rhythmic patterns. If you count these in 4/4, you'll perceive longer rhythmic cycles that won't repeat for 15 bars. Adding delay will create even more complex patterns. Also, try it with the Panoptigon’s hall reverb turned up, and the main volume knob turned all the way down, to get an interesting ambient pad sound.
POLYRIMBA can only be played on Panoptigon, and is not compatible with Optigan or Orchestron.
Conceived, arranged, and mastered by Pea Hicks

Life’s a Blip! // Biyiblip // Blippulator
video upload by NOISEBUG
"The Blippulator is now available at Nosiebug
https://www.noisebug.net/products/biy...
Meet blippulator, the quirky offspring of Rob Hordijk’s legendary designs, blending the heart of a Blippoo Box with the chaotic energy of a Benjolin.
Born from the mind of Hordijk's sonic explorations and further refined by Biyi, Blippulator takes everything we love about these classics and adds a fresh twist.
At its core, blippulator features extensive CV control, letting you dial in and modulate key parameters like the pitch of its two oscillators and the cutoff frequencies of its dual resonant filters. These aren’t just any filters—they’ve got that twin-peak magic that Hordijk fans will instantly recognise, adding a complex, organic edge to your sound.
One of blippulator’s coolest tricks? You can select any two arbitrary signals to create a custom PWM waveform, adding a layer of flexibility and unpredictability to your patches. Whether you’re controlling it from a Eurorack system or another external device, the 0-5V CV inputs and outputs make it a breeze to integrate into your setup. The panel is user-friendly, making it easy to get hands-on with your sound and improvise live.
And just when you think you’ve got it figured out, blippulator’s got a few secret weapons up its sleeve to keep things interesting in your performances. It’s a powerful tribute to Rob Hordijk’s genius, honouring his designs while pushing them in new directions, making it a must-have for anyone who loves modular synthesis and sonic exploration.
Blippulator is more than a synthesizer—it's a celebration of the past and the future of sound design, with a nod to one of the most innovative minds in the field. Plug in, experiment, and let it take your performances to the next level"
