Organ Sound on Sequential OB-6 | Vintage Synth Tones


video upload by Mr. Card Synths

"Warm and expressive organ-style patch on the Sequential OB-6. Classic vibes with rich analog depth and a touch of vintage character.

Prophet-10, CP88 session | Receptor 2025-08-24 by atnr


video upload by atnr

"A piece created with Sequential Prophet-10, YAMAHA CP88, CLAVIA Nord Lead, and MOTIF-RACK ES. A session featuring delayed piano tones and synth sounds processed with spacious effects.

The Prophet-10 is connected to LOSSY, MOOD MKII, and blueSky — applying packet loss effects along with delay, pitch shifting, and reverb.

The CP88 is used to play electric piano sounds, with deep delay applied.

The backing track is provided by the Nord Lead and MOTIF-RACK ES, layering harmonies with synth pads. Reverb on the Nord Lead is processed through Specular Tempus."

Last Blue 💙 (Korg Electribe MX = EMX-1) #groovebox #onesynthonly


video upload by 2-Minute Warning

"So I recorded only one pattern here with all the tracks being uses. I.E. 9 drum tracks and 5 synth tracks.

Quite a lot of the EMX1's parameters were internally sequenced (MOTION SEQ), especially the routing to the 3 effects (which you can clearly hear in the intro on the rimshot sound) and the cutoff of some of the synth tracks 😉

Throughout the track I muted and unmuted the different tracks, including unmuting all tracks at once by using SHIFT+SOLO, and even made a risky improvisation on the ribbon arpeggiator 😅

At the end of the track, I finally bring a modulation to take the jam one step further ✈️"

The Electric Music Box: Exploring a Vintage Buchla 200 Modular System

In the spring of 2025, I spent a week at the Stony Brook University Electronic Music Studio, working closely with their original Buchla 200 Series modular synthesizer. Built in the early 1970s by pioneering instrument designer Donald Buchla & associates, this rare instrument is one of the few surviving and fully intact systems of its kind.

Due to its rarity, very few musicians have had the opportunity to interact with an original 200 system firsthand. I hope this video will help bridge that gap by sharing the instrument’s sound, design philosophy, and aesthetic intentions with a wider audience.

The video begins with a brief historical overview of the Buchla 200 Series and its role in the rapidly evolving landscape of 1970s electronic music. From there, I dive into a detailed walkthrough of the system, exploring each module with sound demonstrations and examples. We conclude with some reflections on the Buchla 200’s design philosophy, offering insights into the types of musical interaction the instrument was built to encourage (and why it continues to resonate with musicians and designers today).

The Beatles Abbey Road Moog synth timbres Demo by Ross.

"Demo I created back in 2011, where I attempt to recreate the legendary modular Moog Synthesizer timbres created by the Beatles for their final album, Abbey Road."

A soundscape using MIDISID and MIDIPan


video upload by MIDI IN

"Inspired by my trip to the Ambient Garden, I've made a soundscape from sounds including a bass drone made with the 'bowed glass' preset in MIDISID, 'strings' made using MIDISID's "synth voice" polyphonic sound, one of the audio MIDIPan's built-in tongue-drum sounds and my tube trumpet!"

Album with Make Noise only - Fracture #05 Live Performance


video upload by Anton Anru

"🎆 Fractures is the result of a series of experiments with the Make Noise modular trio: 0-Coast, Strega, and 0-Ctrl. This combination of instruments is perfectly suited for generative ambient music, where hypnotic repetition merges with expression and dynamic movement.
💽 I recorded a 10-track album using only three Make Noise devices and VST effects.
All tracks were recorded live in a single take, with no additional editing. Each piece is built around a sequenced pattern and a complex patch that evolves continuously, shaped manually in real time.

The album is available on all streaming platforms.
➕ SoundCloud: / fractures
➕ Bandcamp: https://anru.bandcamp.com/album/fract...

The album explores a wide emotional range — from brighter, more uplifting moments to darker, more noise-driven textures — offering a diverse sonic journey shaped by the raw, living nature of modular synthesis.

📒 I also have patches for Make Noise and other synthesizers: https://antonanru.sellfy.store/

🎛 Lately, I’ve been more interested in working with simpler forms rather than complex arrangements in DAW. Semi-modular synths are perfect for this approach. In this case, the arrangement is the patch itself. If it’s well thought out, you can easily play a full track in a specific genre—like ambient or techno—using just that one patch.

📝 I’m curious to hear your thoughts—does this kind of format immerse you in a certain mood or evoke a specific emotion? Or does the sound feel too experimental and harder to connect with?
I’d really appreciate any feedback. Enjoy listening!"
