1. CITADEL ALCHEMIST & Kastle 2+Citadel DIY Kits & more NEWS from Bastl!

We built a fantasy world of magical music machines with the FX Wizard multi-effect, the Wave Bard sample player and the Alchemist synth that live in battery powered Kastle 2 format and the Citadel eurorack version. We are excited to not only announce the late arrival of the Citadel Alchemist Eurorack module to the party, but to let everyone know that all the instruments are now available as DIY kits and that we are partially open-sourcing it so the world we started could be expanded by many others."

3. Hello Alchemist ! Bastl Citadel synth engine rave to experimental - Stazma and Bastl Instruments

Alchemist is now EURORACK... into the CITADEL!!!!!
So here we go checking out how this synth engine will play out with his other citadel friend the Wave Bard in breakbeat torture mode.
Also a cool oportunity to play around the Diktaat from Mzourack to trigger both units in a performative way.

Citadel Alchemist is a patchable hybrid-synthesis based eurorack module that empowers you in discovering melodies and even harmonies despite being monophonic.
Patch programmable sequencing via the control signals into the two PITCH MOD inputs opens up a world of melodic inspiration beyond classic arpeggios while staying in your preferred SCALE.

5 synthesis modes
The Alchemist has a carefully tuned wide timbral range spanning across 5 synthesis modes (FILTER, FM, HYPERSINE, SUPERSAW and GLITCHNOISE) accessed by main TIMBRE sweep that is refined by the RATIO control.

The ENV macro knob affects different parts of the synth and sequencing engine to maximize musicality and it even lets you continually morph between the synthesis modes and access truly unique sounds.
The timbral palette is further extended by the dual FX section which offers either a wide delay that will smear the arpeggios into echoed harmonies or a chorus-flanger-distortion-combfilter macro custom tuned for each synth mode.
You can also access gliding rubber textures with the PITCH SLIDE macro that applies pitch envelope and portamento.
You can customize its rhythms and scales with the web-based editor.
Modulate anything
All main parameters can be modulated and tightly sequenced by the surprisingly powerful CV and GATE pattern generator. Create groovy off-grid beats using the built-in LFO, which can be synced, reset, or left to run freely.

"Parting is a box of pleasant surprises. Moments of chance will give bursts of a glitch delay that can smear into a reverb, modulated by tremolo or vibrato, filtered, and, most importantly, dissolved into lofi aliasing or stretched out reverse. All of this may jump around in halves and octaves of itself - it’s up to you and Parting, together.
Controls

Dissolve has two functions. Below noon, it reduces sample rate, creating an increasingly degraded version of the signal. Above noon, it reverses the signal, and repeatedly cuts the reverse clock in half as the knob is turned, creating an increasingly long and degraded reverse.

Rate sets the rate of the modulation LFO, which is also the frequency of triggers for moments of chance.

Depth sets the depth of the LFO.

Shape sets the LFO shape: Sine, Square, Reverse Saw, Saw, Random Sine, Random Square, Envelope

Chance allows random bits of signal to enter the delay/reverb buffer during an LFO cycle.

Smear adds diffusion and feedback to the delay lines, turning them into a lush reverb as the knob is turned up.

Glitch creates various clock subdivisions.

Time sets the timing of the delay/reverb, as well as the reverse.

Filter sets the cutoff point of the post-dissolve filter.

Mix sets the blend of dry and wet signal.

Aux switch for tap tempo, half speed, or preset switching.

Soft-touch On/Off footswitch with relay switching for minimal switch noise"

Leviasynth Synthesis tips Wave transforming

video upload by Ken Flux Pierce Fluxwithit

"Fluxwithit is back finally and starting with the release of Leviasynth! a new 16 voice 8 oscillator digital / analog hybrid synth from ASM. Ashun Sound Machines has been hard at work for years on this synth and I am so proud to have been a part of this project. To give back to the community I am doing my part in creating a bunch of quirky tips and deep dives into what makes this synth so unique.

So join me while I share some tips and be sure to check out Fluxwithit.com as I intend to be uploading a lot of new content very soon! also if you would like to support my channel, be sure to visit Shop.Fluxwithit.com where I have both free and paid sound packs , presets, samples, and all sorts of goodies.

Testing de nieuw Indian resonator 4 Bansuri eurorack

video upload by



Indian Resonator 4

is a special Eurorack module designed to generate the warm, deep sound of an Indian bamboo flute — the Bansuri. Rather than being a simple oscillator, it behaves like a resonant physical model that responds very organically to control and performance gestures. The sound can be shaped in two main ways: 1. Control Voltage (CV) All core parameters can be controlled with CV, allowing the module to integrate fully into a Eurorack system. This makes it possible to modulate pitch, tone, and expression dynamically using sequencers, envelopes, LFOs, or other modules. 2. Light-Sensitive Sensors What makes the Indian Resonator 4 truly unique is the inclusion of three light-sensitive sensors. These sensors react to changes in light and shadow and directly influence the flute sound. By moving your hands over the sensors, you can subtly or dramatically alter the tone, airflow character, and resonance — much like the finger and breath control of a real flute player. A dedicated switch allows you to turn the sensors on or off, so you can choose between: •

Pure CV control • Sensor-based performance control •

Or a combination of both Playing Experience The module rewards exploration. You typically start by finding a sweet spot in the sound — a resonant, expressive tone that feels alive. From there, you bring the sound to life using CV modulation or by performing with your hands over the sensors. There are many beautiful and unexpected sounds inside the Indian Resonator 4, but they don’t all reveal themselves immediately. It’s an instrument that invites patience and experimentation — the more time you spend with it, the more expressive it becomes. sice 15 HP

Tembra Modular PH LFO - Phase Shifting Wavetable LFO

video upload by Braintree56

"The Tembra Modular PH LFO is a powerful Eurorack modulation source that focuses on phase shifting and uses wavetable LFOs. I love using Phase Shift for wide stereo images and complex movement.

In this video, I demonstrate the PH LFO’s core functions and build a practical Eurorack patch that uses phase-shifted LFOs to create a wide, animated stereo field—without relying on chorus, delay, or other stereo effects.

Tembra Modular:

/ tembra.modular

https://www.tembra-modular.com/phlfo/"

LFO module provides 4 outputs, 3 with phase shift.
The PH S knob controls phase:
center = no shift,
up = maximum shift (45° / 90° / 180° depending on output),
down = the same amount but in the opposite direction.
RATE controls LFO speed.
WAVE smoothly morphs between waveforms inside the selected bank.
BANK button:
Short press: switch between waveform banks (5 banks + 1 bonus).
Hold: enter rate range selection mode.
In this mode, short press cycles rate ranges:
0.05–10 Hz, 0.05–5 Hz, 0.05–3 Hz.
Hold again to exit back to bank mode.
There are CV inputs with attenuators for WAVE, RATE, and PHASE.
Range switch selects output voltage range:
0 to +10 V or –5 to +5 V.

Serendipity L-Thing vs D-Thing+: Upgrades for Moog DFAM & Labyrinth

video upload by Noisegate and Sam Stosuur

"We patch both modules together, sync them via Mother-32, and explore how they interact with DFAM, Labyrinth, and Teenage Engineering Rhythm for a wild semi-modular jam.

The D-Thing+ transforms the Moog DFAM, adding reset, swing, step control, micro-timing, shuffle, reverse, random modes, and MIDI/CV clocking — turning a brilliant but limited sequencer into a powerful performance instrument.

The L-Thing is built to pair with Moog’s Labyrinth, providing dual clocks, polymeter and polyrhythm modes, Euclidean rhythm options, and generative sequencing that pushes Labyrinth far beyond its stock behavior — while still working with any CV-capable synth.

The D-Thing is a device that adds significant capabilities to the DFAM (or Edge) sequencer, such as:

MIDI integration — clocking and individual step play,
Reset — manual, via CV or via MIDI,
Variations in the step order — Forward, Reverse, Bounce, Odds & Evens, Shuffle, Random and Custom,
Changing the sequence length — 1 to 8 steps (up to 16 steps for a custom step order),
Step repeat — assign a play count of up to 8 times to any step,
Off-grid timing — swing beat as well as arbitrary shifts away from the beat.
