video upload by WMDevices

As always, check with dealers on the right for pricing and availability.

"The long-awaited Clutch module is a dual sample player built specifically for creating dynamic, expressive hi-hat sounds through an immediately playable interface.

With two layers of samples, Clutch lets you blend dependable “bread-and-butter” built in hits with a massive library of sample pairs hosted on a memory card. The controls for the card based samples are always accessible and intuitively arranged, making it easy to dial in sounds quickly during performance or patching. And yes, you can load your own samples!

In this video, Alex goes through the module from top to bottom, demoing all of the controls and features Clutch has to offer. Starting with the connections, and ending with a jam using CV modulation, the built-in FX, and feel control to create a super unique groove in a matter of minutes. Clutch is a tool for creating the best quality and unique hihat and auxilliary percussion to your modular jams in a fun and intuitive way.

Performable, musical & “produced” sounding modular hi hats // CLUTCH from WMD

video upload by DivKid

"Here we have the eagerly anticipated CLUTCH from WMD. It's a dual layer, closed and open hi hat module based around the playback of samples. With 'samples' said ... you can swap them and turn this into a percussive sample player for non hi hats too - which we do in the video. There's built in FX, seriously impressive 'feel' and dynamics controls that are incredibly musical incredibly easily and a whole host of features to layer sounds, sit them in a mix and to perform with them."

video upload by atnr

"The ‪@YamahaSynthsOfficial‬ RX-17 is connected to the ‪@KORG_INC‬ NTS-3, where its beats are shaped and altered using the looper while they play.

On the ‪@teenageengineering‬ OP-1 field, sampled vocals of Kasane Teto are processed through the ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ MOOD MKII, adding glitch textures as the phrases loop.

The piano parts are performed on the MOTIF-RACK ES, then recorded and edited to create the final melodic layers."

EMS Synthi AKS


video upload by Soundgas

"EMS Synthi AKS - been asked to demo it for a potential buyer and realise it’s been a while since I spent any meaningful time with one🫣.

So maybe less a demonstration, more a case of finding your way through an AKS.

Really doesn’t matter as sometimes it’s more fun with an element of mystery - to paraphrase Quincy Jones: leaving space for God to stumble into the sequence?🤓"

microKORG2 vs GAIA 2: Which synth is best?


video upload by MR TUNA Music

"Its time for a synth 2 synth showdown... what is better: The Roland GAIA 2 or the new KORG MicroKORG2? They are both very similar virtual analog subtractive synthesizers designed around portability, so why pick one over the other??

Im not sure I can answer that question but I can share some experience on what I like best about each keyboard and what I feel really stands out feature-wise and what you might even consider against them.

As usual this is an extremely impromptu and casual chat in the studio-- no script, no plan, just some good old fashioned #synthtalk

Let me know what one you'd buy or what you think is the better value!"
