This TINY Setup Makes MASSIVE Jungle: PO-33 KO! + Monotron Delay


video upload by Pocket Trax

"Back with some more pocket-sized Jungle energy.

👉 Pocket Jungle Toolkit 2 available on Patreon: / pocket-jungle-2-168395255

Once again I’m pushing the PO-33 KO! + Monotron Delay. Such a ridiculously small setup for how BIG and dirty it can sound. I’m also using the breaks from my latest Pocket Jungle Toolkit 2 in this jam. I wanted to test in a performance and, well... I can confirm: they hit hardships as you can feel. The toolkit is available on my Patreon

There’s something about making Jungle on these little machines that just clicks, with a unmatched vibe and energy.

He wasn't expecting that... Jupiter 8 vs Magnolia


video upload by Starsky Carr

"*Vintage legend vs modern contender — two 8-voice all-analogue polysynths, 45 years apart. I fully expected the Jupiter-8 to win this one. It didn't.*

I set out to score the Frap Tools Magnolia against the Roland Jupiter-8 across price, features, reliability, repairability and — the hard part — sound. Spoiler: it wasn't close on most of those, and then the sound test threw me a curveball I wasn't expecting.

Watch to the end for the verdict, and let me know in the comments which one you'd actually want on your desk.

*⏱ TIMESTAMPS*

Making a lo-fi track with just one cheap synth


video upload by vekoni

"I limited myself using only Stylophone Beat with Loopy Pro to make a chill lo-fi track. This little drum machine can also do neat bass sounds, which I've used to create a melody over the recorded beat.

I was usually using the Beat exactly as intended: punching in notes with its built-in sequencer (which is quantized), then jam over it with a synth or a guitar (so basically it was a groovy metronome for me). This time I wanted to try something new and use it exclusively to create something "off the grid", so I've played the Beat freely and looped it. With the use of some great effects I managed to elevate the sounds of this unit."
