Tonverk 1.2.0 OS Upgrade


video upload by Elektron

"Tonverk 1.2.0 is here! With some lovely little festive additions to put under the Tonverk tree. We’ve got two new FX to play with, even more options with the existing FX, random mode for the arpeggiator, and further fixes and improvements.

"OS Upgrade: Tonverk OS 1.2.0
We know Grainer, and the 1.1.0 OS that fixed the sync issues, are still fresh on the block, but we had some pretty neat dishes in the oven that didn’t quite make that release. So here is OS 1.2.0, a chance to put a few more little festive additions under the Tonverk tree. We’ve got new effects, even more options with the existing effects, a random mode for the arpeggiator, and some other little additions alongside further fixes and improvements.

New effect: Steel Box Reverb

A third reverb comes to Tonverk, and it’s a whole other flavor. Steel Box Reverb draws on early digital and ’90s plate reverbs, with deliberately wide parameter ranges that let you push sounds from tight metallic rooms to sprawling, resonant spaces. It can clang, bloom, or decay endlessly, making it equally suited to metal can tails or big, characterful ambience.

New effect: Filter Folder

Filter Folder combines wavefolding with filtering and distortion to reshape sound at a more fundamental level. By folding the waveform before it passes through a multimode filter and drive stage, it adds harmonics, grit, and movement that go far beyond traditional filtering. From subtle edge and density to aggressive, overtone-rich transformations, Filter Folder excels at turning simple signals into something far more complex.

More FX availability

If those two additions weren’t enough (for now) we’ve also extended Tonverk’s FX powers in other ways too. Daisy Delay can now be used on all tracks - and Frequency Warper can now be wielded on all audio tracks, bus tracks and mix. Use these two awesome options wherever your echoing, warped heart desires.

Random Arp

Random Arp introduces controlled unpredictability to arpeggiated patterns, reshuffling note order on the fly to generate evolving melodies and unexpected variations.

And more

There’s a few other stocking fillers too. Pattern mute, improved gain reduction and new sidechain sources for the compressor, shorter samples available to use on Grainer, and improved tempo stability when simultaneously receiving clock and large amounts of MIDI data from an external source, such as Octatrack. Plus various other fixes and improvements."

BOSS SDE-3 Dual Delay Demo with Synths (no talking)


video upload by Bonedo Synthesizers

"In this video we check out the BOSS SDE-3 Dual Delay — a classic digital delay pedal that’s equally useful for synth rigs as it is for guitars. With two independent delay lines and intuitive controls, it lets you craft everything from tight slapbacks and dotted rhythms to lush, ambient repeats that enhance your synth textures.

We take a look at how its routing options and flexible timing settings can add depth and movement to pads, leads and sequences, making it a great creative tool for sound designers and live performers alike."

Nopia Update 3


video upload by Martin Grieco

"The pieces start coming together.

After 2+ years of development. Meet Nopia MK1

We’re super grateful for living the dream of engineering this instrument to the highest level possible. Fascinated by the thought of each of you playing it.

Nopia is a semi-modular harmony generator. It features an onboard multitimbral sound engine, a hybrid of sampled instruments and onboard virtual analog synths. A 5 step effects chain, dedicated per module MIDI outs, multitouch strum plate, the list goes on! You’re welcome to visit our refreshed website nopia.io and check out the final spec sheet if this is something you’re curious about.

Muchas gracias amigues!"

New Open Source Virtual Pipe Organ Project: Rusty Pipes



This one is in via DS:

"Hey Matrixitians!

I'm writing in to announce a new MIDI-controlled Virtual Pipe Organ software called "Rusty Pipes".

It's a sample-based organ synth with support for GrandOrgue and (unencrypted) Hauptwerk sample sets. It features 32 bit internal audio mixing, full MIDI support with extremely flexible channel routing, integrated audio and MIDI recording of performances, convolution reverb, and an innovative sample streaming mode that makes it possible to play very large sample sets with a minimal amount of RAM, yet without increasing latency!

Other unique features include a REST API for things like pulling stops - great for people who like to build physical consoles - and optional text mode support (via Ratatui) which makes this ideal for running on headless setups or on a RaspberryPi.

Rusty Pipes is a clean-room implementation written 100% in Rust, available free and open source under the GPL v2. Version 1.3.0 supports over 20 languages including Latin and Klingon, and is available for Linux, Mac and Windows. Debian and Arch (AUR) packages are provided as well.
