"This is a rare 1977 cs30. Yamaha’s most complex mono synth. The closest thing Yamaha made to a modular system. This one was modded specifically for me. Individual cv inputs for the 2 oscillators and individual gate inputs for all 3 egs. I have this hooked up to 2 Kenton Pro-Solo midi/cv converts. One is set to low note, one to high note. Now this synth plays like a classic duophonic synth like the Odyssey, sh7, etc through any midi keyboard or sequencer. Both midi converters and cables are included. It also has custom wood end pieces. I will also include the original plastic ones. This is a crazy synth with 2 oscillators, sub osc, 3 egs, 1 lfo, ring mod, cross mod, 2 multi mode filters, 2 amps, 8 step sequencer that can trigger any of the egs so you can make complex lfo shapes and modulate anything. Tons of modulation options everywhere. Even the external input can be a mod source and the lfo can be different shapes at different destinations and be effected by an eg. Amazing synth. Everything works perfectly. It should be noted that when using the cv/midi, some functions like detuning and portamento do not work. But the Kentons can do both and even add tuning range and extra LFOs."

"It's not everyday you're in the presence of royalty but get yourself a Maestro Rhythm King (like this one here, of course) and you will be! The Maestro Rhythm King is a legend and this Mark I version is even harder to find these days. Sly from Sly and the Family Stone used a Rhythm King, so did Shuggie Otis as well as many others and now it's your chance.

Fat, musical, Analog goodness await you with this oft-recorded vintage beat machine. Use the manual keys to add unique flavor to the already flavorful preset rhythms and you can even combine any two or three preset rhythms for even more variations. This thing looks amazing, sounds even better, will inspire your creativity, add Analog sweetness to your tracks or live performances and if you ever get tired of having it around (you probably never will) just sample the sounds on to your DAW and sell it for what you paid for it or more. That's the beauty of great vintage gear!"

A Modern Classic Eurorack LPG New & Improved in STEREO!! // Stereo State Gate Stereo Field from SSF


video upload by DivKid

"Here we have the new 'stereo field' version of the Steady State Gate from SSF (Steady State Fate). It's a revamped circuit design with added features and new stereo functions that builds on what I think is a bit of a modern classic, the Steady State Gate from 2022. It's a re imagining and expanded LPG or low pass gate that has on board wave shaping, versatile filtering options and stereo field (stereo image, creation, control and modulation thereof) controls. It's beautifully musical and dynamic, check out the patches below."



"The Steady State Gate Stereo Field (SSGSF) is a stereo low-pass gate module combining dynamic filtering, timbre shaping, and stereo field control to produce rich, evolving textures with spatial effects. Suitable for both stereo and mono sources, it offers extensive modulation possibilities for expressive sound design.

Newly designed signal path with updated Timbre and Qaos response and control.

True stereo design utilizing a curated mid-side signal chain that provides processing features for stereo, as well as mono input signals.

Stereo and mono signal processing including psychoacoustic panning and stereo field enhancement with voltage control and two 'FIELD" modes.

New CV/GATE LPG control input. Can be used simultaneously with EXCITE for more dynamic and rhythmic effects."

Error Instruments Introduces Error Mixer Eurorack Module


video upload by errorinstruments paul tas



"Something New and Special — the Error Mixer

Meet the Feedback Mixer — a five-input mixer with a twist.
At first glance, it works like a regular compact mixer. But hidden inside is a wild feature: an extra output with extremely high gain.

Feed this output back into the mixer and things start to get beautifully chaotic — intense distortion, bit-crushed textures, and raw, unpredictable feedback tones.
When pushed, it can even self-oscillate with no input, creating wild, evolving soundscapes on its own.

The magic happens when you blend this feedback madness with other sounds — it can add grit, energy, and edge to anything, especially drums or Acid-style basslines.

• 6HP wide – small but powerful
• Extreme gain for raw feedback experiments
• Perfect for distortion, noise, and texture creation
• Available assembled or as a DIY workshop kit
• Affordable and seriously fun

Get ready for crunch, chaos, and creativity — the Error Mixer is not your average mixer."

video upload by embodme

"In this session, we dive deep into the expressive world of the Erae 2, exploring how its unique surface transforms sound design into a tactile experience. From organic hand drum rhythms to immersive space textures and evolving FX layers, this performance showcases how touch and movement can shape sound in real time.

🔹 Featuring: Custom patches, layered percussion, ambient effects, and gesture-based modulation.
🔹 Focus: Expressivity, sound sculpting, and spatial design on the Erae 2.
🔹 Gear: Erae 2 + synth & FX setup.

If you love experimental sound design, performance-based synthesis, or just want to hear what’s possible with the Erae 2 — this one’s for you."

Minimal electronic with norns shield & OP-1 field : Extreme Drop 2025-10-21 by atnr


video upload by atnr

"A piece created with norns shield and ‪@teenageengineering‬ OP-1 field.

A minimal ambient composition built from looping phrases and reverb-soaked synth pads that subtly shift in tone and rhythm.

On the norns shield, the script AWAKE is used to sequence the phrases. The trigger probability is set around 60–70%, creating a semi-random timing for each note. The phrase patterns are controlled via monome grid.

On the OP-1 field, harmonic synth pads are recorded live and looped on the spot, with additional hand-played layers performed over the loops.

Using ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ LOSSY, effects are applied to the norns shield’s sound. In the early section, a filter is manipulated to fade the sound in, while in the outro the tone shifts toward a more lo-fi texture.
