Learn how to use feedback loops and filter layerings to enhance your composition | Studio no. 6
video upload by Frap Tools
"Francesco Gennari shows us a fresh new way of using wave folders and filters! Instead of being 'usual' blocks of a synth voice, here they become structural part of the whole composition. Take your time and watch the full video, because the patching style isn't obvious at all!

‘Studi’ takes its cue from the tradition of the Étude, treating each track as a focused investigation into sound, structure, and technique.

WMD's William Mathewson Chats Skorpion – Exclusive Interview
video upload by Metamyther
"In this in-depth interview, we sit down with William Mathewson of WMD to discuss the Skorpion Eurorack module—likely the most extreme wavefolder ever made and a groundbreaking sound design tool for modular synthesizer enthusiasts. William shares the story of WMD’s evolution, the challenges of designing complex Eurorack modules, and how the Skorpion took 5 years to get completed. This conversation gives you insights into one of the year's most anticipated modules."
Velocity Bound | The Schlappy Minute

"This is the Schlappy Minute.
Today I quickly show you how to use the bound input on Boundary Layer (also work with Boundary) as a velocity control for your keyboard or sequencer."
Hrt & Sol - Cinematic Programma Performance
video upload by Saß
"Today, I have my first recorded Programma 900 ambient performance for you! I recorded this by setting my MPCkey37 tempo in the 80-90 BPM range, playing a blank 4 bar loop and getting a feel for the metronome, and then turning the metronome off and starting to record the midi notes. I turned the recording on/off a few times so it didn't become overloaded. I also used some of the Programma's CV buffers to record some automation of the harmonics and FX modulation. Along with the experimental regenerative delay DSP FX, I think this track came out pretty nice! Please let me know what you think! The Programma is such a unique synth, it's like if an alien turned a WiFi router into a musical instrument, lol.

Sound as Circuit: The Material Signature of Elektron Analog Rytm
https://akihikomatsumoto.sellfy.store...
In the world of modern drum synthesis, few machines have achieved the level of circuit-specific identity that the Elektron Analog Rytm embodies. It is not a sampler. It is not just an analog drum synth. It is a dynamic system where non-linear saturation, voltage interaction, and microcontroller precision combine to produce results that feel tactile.
This sample pack was created to capture those behaviors directly at the source.
Every sound has been recorded without digital post-processing, in order to preserve the natural transients, filtering irregularities, and dynamic headroom behavior unique to the machine.
What’s Inside
Factory Kit
576 carefully recorded one-shot samples, preserving full-range dynamics and analog irregularities.
Jungle Kit
12 punchy and layered hits ideal for complex rhythmic programming.
Dope Analog Kit
12 Analog synthesized drum kit for modern bass music.
Industrial Kit
24 Analog synthesized Industrial Techno / Noise drum kit. (New!!2025/9/1)
MD Kit
12 Digital synthesized drum kit from Machinedrum. (New!!2025/9/15)
Max Analog Kit
12 Analog synthesized drum kit. (New!!2025/9/15)"
Tonverk Tutorial: How to Sample
video upload by Elektron
"Risa T explores the different sampling methods on Tonverk, demonstrating both the Recorder and the Auto Sampler. With the Auto Sampler, you can multisample instruments via MIDI, choosing how many notes and velocity layers to record. Then simply sit back - grab a cuppa or a kaffe - and let Tonverk do the work."
NOH Modular Pianist and friends - four chord jam
video upload by Molten Music Technology
"My simple beginnings with the Pianist chord sequencer. It's running chords from Brains (Plaits mode), and sending out a note to the Qu-Bit Surface and Pony VCO and turned into a nice little jam. Full review of Pianist to come soon.
