Cherry Audio | DS-2 Preset Design with Andrew Longhurst
video upload by Cherry Audio
"Musician, producer, and sound designer Andrew Longhurst details his track “Clouds Below, Hills Above,” created entirely with Cherry Audio’s Crumar DS-2 synthesizer. Andrew contributed his own collection of 100 presets which can be explored further in Crumar DS-2.
Check out 'Clouds Below, Hills Above' and 16 other demo tracks at https://cherryaudio.com/products/ds-2...
Andrew first worked on soft/hardware development, preset design and sample libraries in 1983, going on to work create for Sony, Amek, DAR, Steinberg, eMagic, Lexicon, Klark Technic, Akai PMI, Roland, E-Mu, Creative Labs, Novation, Red Sound, dS-Tec, Yamaha and others. After 25 years in AV/VR, he has recently returned to product and sound design.
Cherry Audio's Crumar DS-2 synthesizer faithfully replicates the unique digital/analog sound of the original hardware synth from 1978. This latest collaboration with Crumar Instruments not only captures the distinctive tone and multitimbral capabilities of the original but also enhances them, offering an impressive combination of innovation and authenticity."

"TRON NAILS": SynthR10 Goes (a little bit) to "Tron Ares" mood (demo) #analogsynth #electronicmusic
video upload by KurtzMindfields
"We're just two weeks away from Synthfest 2026, and the SynthR10 is ready with lots of improvements.
I love Nine Inch Nails, so I put together a quick demo of the SynthR10 connected to a Korg Electribe.
Everything is live:
SynthR10 sequencer with my left hand / pads with my right hand (with modweels actions)
Electribe 2 on the left.
With a little help from Rémy (phantom hand) .... lol"

Kurzweil K2061/K2088 Tutorial: Juno-60 Analog Expansion (part 1)
video upload by Kurzweil Music Systems
"In this video, we take a deep dive into the Kurzweil K2061/K2088 and explore creative V.A.S.T. programming inspired by the legendary Juno-60 sound.
This is Part 1 of a two-part series. We’ll build the patch you heard at the beginning completely from scratch, using only a single saw wave as our starting point.
Rather than recreating a vintage synth directly, this patch expands on the Juno’s classic single-oscillator architecture — demonstrating how Kurzweil’s powerful V.A.S.T. synthesis engine can transform a simple waveform into something far deeper and more expressive.
In this episode, you’ll see how to:
• Design a full synth patch from a single oscillator
• Shape tone using VAST DSP architecture
• Create movement and depth with Kurzweil FX
• Use physical controllers to add expression and performance dynamics
• Push beyond traditional analog limitations while preserving classic character
The goal is simple: show just how much is possible with one waveform, thoughtful programming, and the immense flexibility of VAST.
Featuring Kurzweil Artist Kash Iyengar.
