End (Dirtywave M8 Tracker + TEO-5)

video upload by The Way Up

"Managed to snag a TEO-5 just in the nick of time before tariffs hit and it jumped in price. I've been eyeing it for a while - I love that lush Oberheim sound, and it's amazing for synthwave, ambient, and dark wave sounds. All synths here were from the TEO-5, sampled and edited a bit on the M8. Threw a bit of ozone on at the end."

"I'm still wrapping my head around sound design on this synth, but I love it! It's capable of such lush, organic sounds, and it sounds absolutely huge. This is straight out of the TEO-5 through onboard effects - no external processing whatsoever."

Bootsy Collins’ Home Studio is a Funk Wonderland

video upload by Reverb

"Bootsy Collins has one of the most distinct bass sounds in all of recorded music and his home studio, the Boot Cave, is where Bootsy workshops his tones and records his records. Whether its the piles of effects pedals, Bernie Worrell's legendary synth setup, or the hordes of priceless memorabilia; Bootsy's Boot Cave is a treasure trove of unbelievably cool gear.

"In this video from Superbooth 2025, Chris Calcutt from Novation presents the latest news from the brand. He highlights the launch of the new Launch Control XL MK3, a MIDI controller with 24 encoders, 8 faders and 16 programmable buttons. This new version includes a display that allows easy visualization of what is being controlled, as well as MIDI output for use with external hardware.

Launch Control XL v3 offers advanced integration with DAWs such as Ableton Live, Logic and Cubase, allowing script-level control. The ability to save up to 15 different configurations makes it extremely versatile. It can be connected to devices such as Circuit Tracks for full access to deep synth parameters directly from the hardware.

Novation Components software allows full customization of all Launch Control XL controls, including high-resolution (14-bit) configurability and hotkey assignment.
The Launch Control XL v3 is expected to hit stores during the summer of 2025.

Also shown is the Launch Key 37, now available in white, unchanged in features but with new aesthetics. In addition, they present the special Swifty edition of the Bass Station 2, with artwork designed by the artist Swifty, who appears in the video making a work for the booth.

From Moog to Teenage Engineering OP-XY: A Messenger-Inspired Jam

video upload by Lo-fi Pask

"Inspired by the announcement of the new Moog Messenger, I set out to craft a track using my Teenage Engineering OP-XY, built entirely from Moog synthesizer samples.
Analog soul meets digital precision — warm, vintage tones reimagined through a cutting-edge portable synth.

This entire piece was composed on a moving train, using the Obscura 76 sound pack — a collection packed with dark textures, retro character, and the unmistakable vibe of classic Moog gears.
The result is a cinematic, introspective soundscape that blends ambient music, experimental electronica, and the freedom of mobile music production.
