"🎹 Farewell to SuperBooth and a new focus for the future!

Andreas Schneider, known as HerrSchneider, is stepping down from the active organization of SuperBooth after more than 25 years. In our interview, he tells us what he wants to focus on in 2027 and why it's so important to him to inspire the next generation with synthesizers and music, especially in schools and for children.

An inspiring glimpse into the vision of a true music pioneer!"

Parasite Drone 1

"I'm sick today, so no voice track. Brain was dead so I figured I'd noodle around a bit, and ended up realizing that - after spending three years focusing on developing, building, and delivering the Facehugger with no time to play anything - I had completely forgotten how much I love the Parasite Antifilter. It's my favorite module, no contest, and combining it with the Facehugger is unbeatable, in my mind. The slightest setting change can take you in entirely new directions.

This one uses basically the same external inputs as the last video but, instead of hitting the Input with the Facehugger, the input is a buzzy drone from an Infernal Noise Machine and the main Facehugger is driving the Low Frequency CV input. The rest is swapping where a sine LFO goes (the second olive cable), the other Facehugger (purple cable) and the step 7 gate from the main Facehugger. This all adds up to some great drones with transient melodies and rhythms.

It gets a little blah in the middle, but it picks back up again when a new drone is discovered later. I'm particularly pleased to have caught one of the Parasite Antifilter's coolest (and most frustrating) features: the charge-up effect. It begins around 11:18. These are where some new sound just builds up out of nowhere. This one was unusually persistent though. Often, they disappear if you change a setting and are very difficult to find again. It's not a filter you can just dial through quickly, you have to give each change a moment to see if it wants to build something else.

It's fun that I could say that this video is just me running a buzzy sound into a filter and sweeping the filter parameters with a stepped CV sequence and some LFOs."

The Classic 80s Sound of a-ha - Train of Thought | Vintage Synth Recreation


video upload by RetroSound

"In this new video I recreate the sound of “Train of Thought” by a-ha from the album Hunting High and Low. Written by Pål Waaktaar, this track is one of the standout examples of 1980s synth-pop production, combining melodic hooks, layered textures, and distinctive Scandinavian pop atmosphere.

For this vintage synth recreation I focused on capturing the character, tone, and arrangement of the original recording using classic hardware synthesizers and samplers. My setup includes the Yamaha DX7 II FD and the Roland Juno-106 for the main synth parts and signature textures.

The bass, flute sound (Fairlight) and selected drum sounds were created with the E-mu Emulator II. I also used the PPG Wave 2.2 for additional digital bass layers, digital textures, and atmospheric effects.

My goal was to explore how the classic a-ha sound was built — from analog warmth and FM synthesis to early digital sampling and wavetable synthesis.

If you enjoy vintage synthesizers, 80s synth-pop, classic a-ha productions, and deep dives into iconic keyboard sounds, this recreation is for you."

Behringer Edge+Grind Combo Patches, Patterns, Samples. Demo


video upload by Anton Anru

"🟪🟫 Welcome to the soundset for the analog semi-modular synthesizers Behringer EDGE + GRIND.
It is a collection of 50 combo patches (+50 GRIND patterns) that include basses, drums/percussion, leads, plucks, textures, FXs.
There is a wide range of sound colors inside the pack: massive and gentle, aggressive and soft, bright and dull, melodic and inharmonic tones, straight and polymetric patterns.

📦 The link to the soundset: https://antonanru.sellfy.store/p/edge...

⚙️ The main point of the soundset is the high level of interconnection, not just syncing the two synths with independent timbres (individual patches for EDGE and CRAVE are also available on my website).
