Inside a Soviet Synth Collection – Rare Analog Sounds You’ve Never Heard
video upload by RetroSound
"In this video, I take you on a tour through my personal "Best Of" collection of rare Soviet Synths gathered over the past 30 years. These instruments are known for their distinctive sound character, shaped by unconventional engineering and vintage components.
Featured in this collection:
0:00 Rodina Alisa 1377
3:11 Formanta Polivoks
9:52 Elektronika EM-26
11:40 RMIF Opus
Each of these synthesizers offers a unique tonal palette – from raw and aggressive textures to warm analog pads and experimental sound design. Their unpredictable behavior and lo-fi charm make them especially inspiring for electronic music production.
If you're into analog synths, vintage gear, or experimental sounds, this collection showcases some of the most interesting and underrated instruments from the Soviet era.

Make Noise 0 Coast + Korg Phase8
video upload by Genshi Media Group
"::| TO HEAR THE FULL RANGE OF FREQUENCIES AND STEREO EFFECTS, A GOOD PAIR OF HEADPHONES IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED |::
The @MAKEN0ISEMUSIC 0-Coast and 0-Ctrl along with the @KORG_INC Phase8 Acoustic Synthesizer. I have the Clock Out of the 0-Ctrl syncing the Phase8, and an Attenuated Random Voltage of the 0-Coast modulating the Phase8's CV Input. I need to explore the Phase8's CV Modulation options more in-depth next time."

A Roland MKS-80 Super Jupiter soundscape with the Fractal Audio FM3
video upload by MIDERA
"So, I borrowed my friend's Roland MKS-80 because there was an issue with it (actually, there wasn't, we just didn't have something connected right). Well, I figured I'd try playing it. I knew I hated my Jupiter 6 and I was convinced this would sound just as bad.
I was VERY mistaken. The MKS-80 sounds nothing like the JP6. I don't know what anyone's talking about when they say they sound alike. The MKS-80 sounds way better, to my ears, I absolutely despised the JP6 filter. The MKS-80 sounds great. I'm honestly really impressed.
I could buy an MKS-80. I'm tempted - but I do have a Prophet 10 which sounds pretty similar... but... how often will I come across another Jupiter 7?

🎛️ GreyScale — Generative Instrument Playlist / Phase4
video uploads by
GreyScale presents “Phase4,” a curated playlist documenting the evolution of Generative Instruments.
This edition focuses on KOSMOS, a self‑contained generative instrument built on the Raspberry Pi Pico (RP2040).
Through a series of short videos, Phase4 traces how the instrument’s behavior, algorithms, UI, and sound design have taken shape over time.
Within the tight constraints of the RP2040, the playlist explores how phrase generation, timing variation, and timbral movement are implemented, and how a minimal hardware platform can still produce expressive, autonomous musical motion.
Phase4 serves as a compact archive of experiments, breakthroughs, and the small decisions that allow a machine to “begin to sing” on its own.
For those interested in DIY instruments, generative music, embedded sound design, or the aesthetics of algorithmic motion, this playlist captures the current state of GreyScale’s generative instrument research.
🎛️ GreyScale が届けるドキュメント・シリーズ「Phase4」。
Raspberry Pi Pico を中心とした Generative Instrument(生成楽器) の開発記録をまとめています。
メインとなるKOSMOS の動作ログ、アルゴリズムの変遷、UI・音響処理の改善など、“楽器が自律的に歌い始めるまで” のプロセスをショート動画で追える構成になっています。
RP2040 の限られたリソースの中で、どのようにフレーズ生成・タイミング揺らぎ・音色変化が実装されていくのか。
ハードウェア単体で成立するミニマルな生成楽器の思想と、その裏側にある試行錯誤をコンパクトにアーカイブしました。
DIY シンセ、ジェネレーティブ音楽、独自アルゴリズムによる“動きのある音”に興味がある方に向けた Phase4 です。
