VoxModula TipTop Buchla Demos
video uploads by VoxModula Archives
Playlist:
1. Polyrhythmic Motion – TipTop Audio Buchla 245t / 281t
A 4-minute modular improvisation exploring the interaction between The Tiptop Audio Buchla 245t and the 281t — where sequential voltage triggers envelopes, generating evolving polyrhythms and shifting patterns.2. Tiptop Buchla + Strymon El Capistan Live Modular Loop Performance / VoxModula #02
Recorded live, no overdubs, no post-processing.
Modules used:
• TipTop Audio Buchla 245t Sequential Voltage Source
• TipTop Audio Buchla 281t Quad Function Generator
• TipTop Audio Buchla 258t Dul Oscillator
Part of VoxModula Archives — a growing collection of modular sound fragments and explorations.
🎧 Best experienced on headphones.
A live modular improvisation exploring the Strymon El Capistan as a looping delay.3. Exploring FM Synthesis on Tiptop Buchla 258t + 259t | Live Patch Talk
The sound slowly folds into itself — echoes become layers, layers become memory.
Recorded in one take.
No editing, no overdubs.
In this video I explore FM synthesis on the Tiptop Buchla 258t and 259t, using the 245t sequencer to modulate pitch and rhythm, and the 266t for random voltages. It’s a liAnd two featuring Moog for good measure:
ve patch talk — I build the sound and explain what happens in real time, fit's my first video like, hopefully you will like it.
Let me know if you would be interested in more videos like this.
If you want the audio files and detailed photos of the patch please reach out and I can send them to you.
🎛️ Modules used:
• Tiptop Buchla 258t Dual Oscillator
• Tiptop Buchla 259t Complex Oscillator
• Tiptop Buchla 245t Sequential Voltage Source
• Tiptop Buchla 266t Source of Uncertainty
🎧 Patch focus: FM synthesis, modulation routing, random CV and sequence interaction.
Playlist:
1. Short Ambient Moog Grandmother Performance (40s Demo)
A short ambient performance using the Moog Grandmother, exploring smooth analog tones, slow modulation, and spatial delay textures.2. VoxModula Archives – The Beginning of an Archive
Recorded live in one take — with external effects, Zoom Ms-70 CDR, Grandmother’s raw sound shaped into a soft, floating atmosphere.
🎛️ Gear used:
• Moog Grandmother (analog synth)
• Internal spring reverb & Zoom Ms70 CDR delay
Hi, this is the first video of VoxModula Archives. VoxModula is an ongoing collection of sonic fragments — recordings where synthesis meets the quiet presence of the surrounding world.
Each piece is an observation of sound as a living material: unstable, imperfect, shaped by voltage and time.
The project does not aim to perform or entertain, but to document the space between intention and accident — where tone becomes memory, and noise becomes evidence of existence.
These works are presented without manipulation or spectacle, as if retrieved from an open archive of moments.
Nothing here is fixed.
Everything breathes.
11/12/25 Roland (RYK) System 100m & RE-301 + Peavey 1300 + Alesis MIDIVERB II + Paia 6740 + CXM 1978
video upload by Cfpp0
"The left RYK Modular 185 sequencer is gating the right RYK 185. The right RYK 185 CV output controls the pitch of the left Roland 110 VCO and modulates the right 110 VCA. The 140 lower envelope controls the left 110 VCA. The upper 140 envelope controls the right 110 VCA. The left RYK 185 gate output is modulating the 140 LFO, and that LFO is modulating the left 110 filter and the right 110 VCO slightly. The 150 LFO is modulating the right 110 filter and the left 110 VCA. The left 110 audio output goes to the Roland RE-301 for tape echo, with the intensity set at the threshold of feeding back, and that signal is panned left on the Mackie Onyx 1640, with spring reverb from the Paia 6740, stereo reverb from the Alesis MIDIVERB II (preset 27), and a larger stereo reverb blended on the CXM 1978. The right 110 audio output goes to the Peavey 1300 delay and is panned center on the Mackie, with the same three reverbs."
Oberheim Matrix 12 Repair
video upload by Really Nice Audio
"I was lucky enough to be able to restore this amazing instrument.
Hampered at the end by a wrong logic chip installed. From factory? Or 'the last guy'?
Music from my new ATMOS album 'Height Supremacy' under my ATMOS artist name Galactic Horizon.

Oberheim OB-8
video upload by Vykaar Tones
"Quick demo of the over sized , great sounding Oberheim OB-8 with the cheap non velocity keyboard implementation that everyone used at the time compared to the sequential T8 that had a great keyboard but didn't sound as good as the prophet 5! I prefer my TEO-5 or the OB6 I had before but I still have the rev4 Prophet 5 desktop."
"Transient-only" LXR-02 kit with the Zen, Nightverb & Roger That
video upload by Richard DeHove
"This started as a little experiment: What would a transient-only drumkit sound like? Of course it's very clicky, like someone on "amateur talent night" playing a set of spoons. But the filters, LFOs, drive and sample-rate controls all still work so there's some wiggle room. First job is to disable the underlaying sound which, I finally discovered, is most simply achieved by switching everything into PWM mode and adjusting the PWM level.
When the thrill of slightly different flavors of click wears off the challenge becomes finding an effect to give it some deeper variation. The Zen, Nightverb and twin Roger That' all did wildly different things. The Nightverb was unexpectedly successfully especially using the pre-delay, feedback and shape controls to give a heavily gated feel. On the Roger That section I did use the morph parameter so strictly speaking it ceased being all-transient, but I thought the end result was worth a little rule-bending.

Make Noise Introduces New MultiWAVE Eurorack Module & Universal Synthesizer System Videos
video uploads by MAKEN0ISE
MSRP: $529 Availability: Shipping November/December 2025. Check with dealers on the right and Reverb linked below.
Playlist:
1. Introducing MultiWAVE! | Make Noise
2. The Make Noise Multiwave System (Part 1)
Meet the New Make Noise MultiWAVE with Tony Rolando
video upload by Reverb
"Meet MultiWAVE, an 8-channel dual wavetable oscillator and the core of Make Noise’s New Universal Synthesizer System. Designed by Tony Rolando, it brings true polyphony to modular.
Each channel hosts two oscillators with independent modulation, spread, and detune controls, creating evolving tones that feel alive. Pair it with PoliMATHS and QXG for a full 8-voice modular polysynth, or use it solo as a powerhouse paraphonic oscillator.
Ships with custom Make Noise wavetables, supports WaveEdit, and features a built-in MultiMod LFO and polyphonic quantizer. See more on Reverb."
New Universal Synthesizer System Video Manual

MultiWAVE Press release follows:
Make Noise is proud to announce: MultiWAVE!
MultiWAVE is an 8-channel dual wavetable oscillator for the New Universal Synthesizer System or any Eurorack modular synthesizer. It uses a single set of controls to generate audio waveforms at eight independent channel outputs.
Each of the eight MultiWAVE channels contains two independent wavetable oscillators, Osc A and Osc B, each loading its own wavetable with variable frequency, modulation and wavetable position.
MultiWAVE includes an output header for creating pre-patched connections to the audio signal inputs of two QXG modules. When grouped up with PoliMATHS it creates the 8-channel core of the New Universal Synthesizer System.
8-channel dual wavetable oscillator with a single set of controls
Sequence A and B oscillators (per channel) independently or together via 4 Follow modes
Generate polyphonic activations from monophonic sequences using Modulation Dissemination, Span modes, Spread, and Accumulate
Variable timbre per channel via Spread and Modulation Dissemination
