Waldorf M 1.11 Update Adds Varysaw VA Oscillator, CS80 Based Oscillator, Extensive FM & More

You can find the update here

Details form the release doc follows:

Disclaimer: This is an unofficial add-on to the M user manual, describing some of extra features added from firmware 1.05 up to firmware 1.11. This add-on also covers some complex aspects of the Multi Mode, which remains somewhat unusual.

Author: Vladi Salnikov aka VladiS.

Algorithms of FW version 1.11:

Varysaw: A VA oscillator ranging from SAW through PULSE to TRI.

Wave (red encoder): Mixes from 0 to 31 from SAW to PULSE; 32 is pure PULSE, and 33 to 63 mixesfrom PULSE to TRI.

Meta parameter: Pulse width for PULSE, adjustable from 5% to 95%.

CSAW: A famous Yamaha CS-80 saw oscillator with mutation towards a parabolic oscillator.

Wave : Controls the amplitude of the “step” component of the saw wave.

Meta parameter: Mixes between this saw wave and the parabolic saw wave.

Waveshpr: A SAW to TRI oscillator fed into a mild waveshaper.

Wave : 0 is pure SAW, 1-62 mixes between SAW and TRI, and 63 is pure TRI.

Meta parameter: Depth of the waveshaper.

TriplSaw: A stack of three SAW oscillators; two are detuned slightly higher and lower than the third.

Wave : Controls the amplitude of the “central” SAW oscillator relative to the two “side” SAWs.

Meta parameter: Detuning factor, from 0 to maximum detune.

S/T Fold: A SIN wave folding oscillator that folds the chosen crossmixed wave between SIN and TRI waves.

Wave : 0 is pure SIN, 1-62 mixes between SIN and TRI, and 63 is pure TRI.

Meta parameter: Folding depth.

FM 2 OP: Classic simple two-operator FM synthesis. OP1 (modulator) generates a sine wave that modulates the phase of OP2 (carrier). Both operators generate sinewaves; the algorithm's output is the carrier signal.

Wave: Maps values from 0 to 63 to harmonics ratios of 1 to 8 in stepped increments.

Meta parameter: Amount of phase modulation applied to the carrier.

Spectral Oscillators Toolkit Vol. 3 - Evolving Looping Oscillators for Cinematic Sound Design

"Available here now for €19.99 instead of €45 until January 20 2026: https://oceanswift.net/product/spectral-oscillators-toolkit-vol3/

Ocean Swift Synthesis has released Spectral Oscillators Toolkit Vol. 3, continuing its “loop-as-oscillator” approach with a newly curated batch of seamless, production-ready oscillator materials designed for modern sound design workflows. The collection includes sample oscillators, tuned tonal beds, drifting textures, and evolving drones intended to function as a playable synthesis foundation—reliable starting points that invite modulation, layering, and deep processing.

Like the previous volumes, every file is built to drop directly into samplers, sample-based synth engines, granular tools, and modular systems, making the toolkit a practical source of dependable oscillator material for both experimental and production contexts.

What’s New in Vol. 3
Vol. 3 distinguishes itself through both its source material and its sense of motion. The pack was assembled from a broad range of new recordings and sampling sessions drawn from Ocean Swift’s synth preset development, hardware sessions, and sound design workflows. These sources were then refined using updated looping, curation, and motion-focused techniques- aimed at delivering more micro-events, subtle tonal details, and evolving character, while staying clean and controlled.

Skull & Circuits METAL-O-TRON II / extensive playthrough / metallic percussion and beyond

video upload by BRiES

"METAL-O-TRON 2 by ‪@skullandcircuits‬ is a 16HP module built for creating stereotypical XOR logic (ringmod) metallic and noisy percussion (think 808 hihats), but in this deep dive video I try to demonstrate that you can do much more with it. There's a general introduction, a deeper dive and a pretty long section with a few (in my opinion) cool patches explained in much detail."
