X1L3 - ALLEYKAT - DEV - GOATED - 8580sid - all parameters brought to the front
video upload by X1L3
"Quick control voltage+gate read / register write test before moving on. And a quick look at the module front panel...
Apart from ring/sync on voice A, which i have no room for on the module design, all parameters of the 3 voices of the chip are now broken out to the user interface.
Voice A juggles the tune and drum work. Voice B is hard synced to voice 1 for the gnarly 'pro1' sound. Noise is strobed over pwm on voice 1 for the 'snare' hits.
ALL SYSTEMS GO - As 80s Williams arcade games would have said π₯π₯π₯
There are likely a few minor bugs in the code that i'll spot as the module comes to life. But all that remains to be coded is the hooking up of some shift registers to get control of the 28 leds.
Given that this is technically a single voice demo. I'm fairly confident this machine will be capable of sounding quite authentic to the Commodore 64 and the world that moved on when it's complete and has some nice compositions made for it π
GOATED ! ! !

Showcasing the Roland SA-09 and the Roland SR-09
video upload by BellaBell
"It was really important for me to feature the Roland SA-09 and Roland SR-09 together in the same video, so you can hear and feel how they interact side by side.
Personally, I connect a bit more with the SR-09 — but honestly, I think both of them are absolutely amazing and insanely nostalgic instruments.

Scale Snap - Eurorack Random Note CV Sequencer
video upload by HOX808
"Scale Snap generates random but scale-accurate note patterns of up to 16 steps. You choose the key/scale, root note, number of steps, and how “jumpy” the pattern feels. It also includes a chord/'Strainer' mode that locks notes to triad tones (random-only, ascending, or descending).
Connections include clock in, 1V/Oct CV out (0–5V), reset to step 1, and a random trigger/button. Controls let you set root, select from multiple scales (chromatic, major, minor modes, pentatonics, etc.), and adjust a parameter that switches between probability of change, octave range, and step count. The display shows step progress, current parameter values, root/scale name, and a scale grid with the active note highlighted."

WCS-X - Just a Lab Test… Until It Wasn’t
video upload by EMW Synthesizers
"This was made using only the WCS-X, a simple mixer, and an old-school audio editor. From here on, the idea is to keep adding more tracks using the same setup, nothing else."

video upload by LESINDES
"DRUM LOOP CARE
The WLK-Audio Inductive Filterbank is a stunning SILICON TRANSISTOR based FILTERBANK with 14 fixed Q band pass filters. As you can hear in the demo the sound shaping shaping potential of this filter is enormus. Much potential for DRUM SHAPING. Example here is SONICWARE CYDRUMS.

Dawless Techno EDM Jam | Novation Circuit Tracks & Rhythm
video upload by Underground Modulation
"In this video I perform a groovebox jam, and this time it’s a techno EDM track created entirely with hardware. The groove is driven by a powerful Novation Circuit combo, blending rhythm, melody, and energy into a tight live performance.
Two grooveboxes are used in this setup:
Novation Circuit Tracks – rhythm and melodic elements
Novation Circuit Rhythm – rhythm, textures, and custom samples
Both Circuit grooveboxes perfectly complement each other, allowing me to build dynamic beats and evolving melodic patterns in a fully dawless workflow. Everything is sequenced live on the Circuit Tracks and Circuit Rhythm, without using a DAW during performance.
Final mastering was done in Ableton Live to polish the track.
Thanks for listening and enjoy the vibe πΆπ"

Launch Control XL 3 Got an Update – Still Missing One Thing
video upload by Sineway
"I’ve been refining my live performance setup with the Syntakt and the updated Launch Control XL 3, and this jam is the result.
The XL 3 recently received a firmware update, which got me thinking about how close this controller is to being perfect for Elektron gear - and the one feature I still wish it had.
In this performance, I’m using:
Elektron macros for more expressive changes across patterns
A second row of encoders for Syntakt track levels
Momentary Breath Control via the lower button row
What I’m still missing is aftertouch MIDI support - it would unlock a third row of Elektron macros, which are so much more powerful than direct CC mappings. This is one area where alternatives like Faderfox still have a massive edge. That said, I really like the XL 3.
Curious what you think - would aftertouch support change how you use the XL 3?
If you're interested in how I set the Launch Control XL 3 up, I've made a tutorial about it featuring the Digitone II. It works exactly the same on the Syntakt: • Digitone 2 + Launch Control XL 3: One Syst..." [posted here]
