"DAVOLI SINTACCORD 44 - 1972

In the early 1970s a young engineer in Parma, Italy tried to crack the code of the polyphonic synthesizer.

With a tight production budget, at the dawn of the 1970s Davoli made a small batch of the DAVOLI SINTACCORD 44 of which a handful still exist today.
At the time it simply wasn't possible to go beyond the one voice, monophonic synthesizer except by adding multiple oscillators triggered by one and the same key.

This was something else completely.

They did not manage to produce the first polyphonic synthesizer but they did however develop the most complex filter modulation controls on a paraphonic preset keyboard - it's a rather different beast - but it does things we've never heard any other synthesizer, or organ for that matter, do.

Most of the specifications are in the video as text already so please watch the video and read the text - but a quick roundup would look like this :

The instrument consists of mainly two separate sections that are actually the same tone generating circuits doubled - one part is the organ and the other part is the filter.

All the sounds are analog and are generated by the very first generation of divide down technology - no eproms or other intruders of vulgar modernity is on hand.

Ambient Music w/ CS01 mono synth, TIMELINE and NIGHTSKY | Brief Moment 2026-06-21 by atnr

video upload by atnr

"An ambient piece performed with a monosynth, delay, and reverb.

This work features the ‪@yamahaglobal‬ CS01, ‪@strymon‬ TIMELINE, and NIGHTSKY.

A repeating phrase is performed while continuously changing the timbre of the sound. The signal is processed through the TIMELINE with delay and then routed through the NIGHTSKY, where filtering and reverb are applied to create spacious and evolving textures.

Groovebox MIDI Reactive VJ - HTML Video Synth Test

video upload by space fever

via Space Fever:

"I would like to submit a small independent synth-related visual tool I made.

It is a MIDI-reactive VJ / HTML video synth designed for grooveboxes and hardware setups. It runs in a browser and reacts to incoming MIDI CC / clock data, making it useful for live electronic music, acid techno, groovebox jams, and hardware-only performances.

Product page: https://spacefever.booth.pm/items/8528673

The concept is to keep the setup simple: a groovebox or MIDI controller sends MIDI data, and the browser-based visual synth generates reactive glitch/noise-style visuals without needing a full VJ software environment.

It may be of interest to readers who use grooveboxes, MIDI hardware, DIY performance tools, or browser-based visual instruments."

M5Stack Acid Generator in there as well.

YouTube video description:

"自作のMIDIリアクティブVJ HTMLツール「Groovebox MIDI Reactive VJ」のテスト動画です。
https://spacefever.booth.pm/items/8528673

グルーヴボックスやMIDI機材から送られるMIDI Note / CC / MIDI Clock / Program Changeに反応して、ブラウザ上で低解像度ビデオシンセ風の映像を生成します。

音声入力ではなく、MIDI信号で映像が変化します。
Fullscreen表示にすると、UIなしで映像だけを出力できます。

対応プリセット：
Novation Circuit Tracks
KORG SQ-1
Roland AIRA MC-101
Roland AIRA MC-707
Roland AIRA T-8
Ableton Move
Artiphon Orba 2

Chrome / Edgeなど、Web MIDI対応ブラウザで動作します。

This is a test video of my DIY MIDI reactive VJ HTML tool, “Groovebox MIDI Reactive VJ”.

It runs in a browser and generates low-resolution video-synth style visuals reacting to MIDI Note, CC, MIDI Clock, and Program Change from grooveboxes and MIDI devices.

No audio input is used.
The visuals are driven directly by MIDI signals.
In fullscreen mode, it outputs only the visuals with no UI.

Supported presets:
Novation Circuit Tracks
KORG SQ-1
Roland AIRA MC-101
Roland AIRA MC-707
Roland AIRA T-8
Ableton Move

Wheel Within the Wheel EP by Michael William Gilbert

A new release via supporting member Michael William Gilbert via Tall Dog Electronics (tindie)

Hello friends,

I am very happy to share this new project with you: an EP of original electronic/electroacoustic fusion music. There are six tracks, including the single "The Prayer Is The Road"(a)/"The Road Is The Prayer"(b). To be clear - prayer in my context is secular: "a practice focusing on gratitude, mindfulness, and reflection to foster positive change, connection, or resilience without appealing to a supernatural being".

"Wheel Within the Wheel", the title track, is influenced by a visit to Tibetan Buddhist monks while they werein the process of creating a sand painting and then destroying it. "Fractal Loup" is about a state of active and curious meditation, a metaphorical wolf mind interpreted with looping. "The Float" is a dream through the worlds of techno and Berlin school. All music recorded & mixed at Alibi’s Little Corner Studio by MWGilbert and mastered by Sean Magee.

Upcoming: thanks to my partners at ElasticStage, "Wheel Within the Wheel" will soon be available as both an LP and a CD! You can check out my previous album "Electronic Music": https://elasticstage.com/mwgilbert

Hope you enjoy "Wheel Within the Wheel". I'm always pleased and grateful to hear what you think, so please let me know!


Thanks for listening!

GS-e7 analog poly synth + BlueARP, EDM demo, no talking

video upload by graywolf2004ru

"A few months ago I got GS-e7 synth (7-voice analog poly) and finally managed to give it some good demo with BlueARP.
Playing various BlueARP-driven patterns, starting from barebone mono pattern to rich polyphonic pattern.
All sounds recorded directly from GS-e7, no other FX except its onboard delay (chorus was not used)."
