"k.o. @ just got its first major os update! we’ve managed to pack a ton of new knockout features like resampling to remix and chop sounds, sidechain for groove control, song mode to arrange tracks of up to 9,801 bars, an optimized playback engine with increased polyphony, plus extended midi support.
Resampling
sample any sound source on or off the k.o. @, process it through effects and make a brand new sample from it."
Song mode
song mode adds the ability to chain scenes and create longer, more structured track arrangements.
Sidechaining
sidechain allows one sound to control the volume of another, perfect for kick and bass groove control.
More Polyphony
we’ve managed to increase k.o.@’s voice count, now supporting 16 mono or 12 stereo voice polyphony.
more midi
pass notes between units with midi thru, keep your gear in sync and pair up to 16 devices simultaneously."
"I was lucky enough to be sent this wonderful #eurorack modules by #Shakmat called Griffins Claws. I've been so busy, I only just got around to uploading the video. Anyway, here is some various uses for it which I think you will find useful. This has become a central part of my case due to the extreme versatility this thing provides. Sequencing, CV recording, CV and Audio Mixing and more."

"The best instruments I have made solved a problem for me, and my new filterbank Skulptur with Bram Bos is no different. It was designed for a very special performance with Ensemble Modern, and worked wonderfully there. Now, a much expanded final version is available on iOS and MacOS, this it what it can do."
"This is my walkthrough, demo and review of Skulptur, the new, very enjoyable performance-oriented filterbank app from Hainbach and Bram Bos. It works on Mac, iPad and iPhone, standalone and AUv3. Enjoy, and smash the like, comment and subscribe if you find the vid helpful. Cheers! Gav"
"A very basic noodle with Circa, our six-track looper plugin. In this instance, Circa is on the iPad, hosted in AUM. MIDI CC from the Quad Cortex's foot switches is being routed to Circa in order to control the layers."
"Equal parts workhorse and abstract creative tool, Circa is a six track multi-layer looping environment that can do most of the things your popular floor pedal looper can while also paying homage to the serendipitous world of ambient looping.
Each layer can sync to the host, a master loop, or free run, and can be triggered in sync, with an audio signal, or freely. Circa has seven stereo outputs (including a dedicated cue output for monitoring) and built-in reverb and delay. Add in a complete MIDI control system and Circa is a full looping workstation."
Imaginando Launches GRFX – Granular Effects: Turn One Sound Into a Universe
7th April 2025 – Braga, Portugal – Imaginando is proud to announce the release of GRFX – Granular Effects, a powerful new audio plugin designed to radically transform sound through the magic of granulation. GRFX takes granular processing to new creative heights—offering a flexible, expressive, and highly playable environment for sound design, experimentation, and exploration.
With GRFX, users can break down ordinary audio into micro-particles and rebuild it into evolving pads and drones, glitchy rhythms, ethereal textures, or alien soundscapes. Whether sparse or dense, shimmering or chaotic, GRFX is your sandbox for bending reality—layering, modulating, and shaping sound through time and space.
At the heart of GRFX is the Harmonic Triangle: an interactive, three-point control panel that morphs your sound into chords, arpeggios, and microtonal variations. This unique interface invites exploration and 'happy accidents,' especially when combined with the plugin’s four cross-modulatable LFOs.
Modulation is made effortless with drag-and-drop routing, instant amount control, and a global
Modulation Panel. A probability-based routing system lets users direct grains to the two
multi-effect engines, the Mixer, and dedicated Delay and Reverb sends—each with independent routing for rich, layered sonic results.
"New Time Machine experimental algorithmic synthesizer Complex noises full of happy accidents in a small run of only made 50 in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. Only. @errorinstruments #errorinstruments #eurorack #noisemusic #soundart #experimentalmusic #producer #eurorackmodular #euroracksynthesizer #korg #noiseartist"
"Time Machine: The Happy Accident Synthesis Introducing the Time Machine, a revolutionary data synthesis device designed to transport you through different times and dimensions. This isn’t just any ordinary machine; it's a 100% happy accident machine, crafted to produce an array of unique sounds inspired by data glitches. Experience the captivating sound of circuit bending, where hardware meets software in a delightful fusion. Check out our demonstration videos to immerse yourself in the extraordinary sounds the Time Machine has to offer. Please note that the output is mono, so it’s recommended to connect directly to a mixer rather than using headphones, as the sound can be quite loud! Designed for versatility, the Time Machine is fully compatible with the Eurorack system. Additionally, what sets it apart is the ability to use its output as a control voltage source for your Eurorack setup, expanding your creative possibilities even further. Dive into the world of sound with the Time Machine, where every glitch leads to a new auditory adventure!"
