"Crystallize your sound with Bismuth, a new Lunacy effect designed in collaboration with one of EDM’s most respected and iconic producers, Virtual Riot.
Bismuth is an iridescent color resonator which can transform raw sound into something tonal, melodic, and alive. By introducing resonant filters to any incoming sound, Bismuth generates lush harmonic layers tuned to specific chords and scales. Like light passing through a prism, what goes in clean comes out fractured into hidden harmonics, shimmering tones, and vivid, colorful textures. Designed for BEAM, our multi-effects engine, Bismuth, is also offered as a standalone effect plugin."
"Meet BLEASS Peaks, a new generation audio filter that turns traditional filtering into a fully playable performance instrument.
➡️ In Internal mode, you can shape the sound using up to 32 resonant peaks/notches.
➡️ In MIDI mode, the plug-in becomes a playable polyphonic filter, where MIDI notes control the filter frequency. You can run up to 8 filter voices at the same time.
This lets you play filter movement using MIDI notes or chords, shaping drum loops and synths in real time. You can create evolving filter patterns, rhythmic effects, and perform filtering like a musical instrument.
🎨 Additional tools include 5 FX slots (distortion, delay, compression, bitcrush, and filters), plus LFOs, envelopes, and macros.
BLEASS Peaks unites classic audio filtering with the spontaneous spirit of performance to deliver an entirely new class of creative filtering effects.
The plugin is built around BLEASS’ advanced multi-peak polyphonic filter design. When set to Internal control mode, this creates a single bell-filter curve containing up to 32 resonant peaks/notches. Details of the filter curve, such as the quantity, root frequency, and spread of the peaks/notches, are set parametrically, making it easy to shape the filter’s response and bring it to life via the plugin’s synth-style modulation sources.
BLEASS Peaks truly comes into its own when operating in MIDI mode. In this configuration, the filter’s root frequency is controlled via MIDI coming from live-played notes or a recorded track. Better still, BLEASS Peaks can generate up to eight such filters simultaneously, making this a true polyphonic filter.
MIDI control makes the filter fully playable and performable, opening up a whole new constellation of original and compelling filtering effects. Drum loops can be tuned to follow chord progressions, rhythmic harmonic pulses can be added to pads, arpeggios can be brought to life with complex frequency-shifting chorus effects… the creative possibilities are endless.
Additional colour and detail can be added to Peaks’ filtering via a set of five assignable Effects slots. These allow you to enhance the filtered sound with distortions, dynamics processors, delay, and even conventional low- and high-pass filters.
As with the filter itself, Peaks’ effects can be brought to life by the plugin’s various modulation sources, with each modulator mappable to up to four destination parameters. There are three LFOs, three envelopes triggered by the incoming audio plus a fourth triggered via MIDI, and four Macro controls. Alongside these internal modulators, the plugin also recognises various realtime MIDI CC and MPE sources.
Used as a conventional single-voice filter, BLEASS Peaks is at the top of its game, allowing easy-yet-deep control over the spectrum of your audio, and offering many ways to inject life and movement into the effect. Enabling MIDI control makes that advanced filter behave as a playable instrument, unshackling you from the limitations of conventional filtering and giving you direct hands-on control over the effect.
However you choose to use it, BLEASS Peaks is a uniquely creative, intuitive and fun tool for shaping, colouring, and injecting originality into your music.

"The first thing I like to do on a new box is make a techno rumble. I learn a lot about a machine like this as I have a goal in mind and I can explore all the options. Here is one way to do it. I also live route the Pulsar 23 Bass channel through the TOnverk and apply a bunch of effects. And then sample the Pulsar and feed the Grainer. Finally add a Pulsar snare sample and make some weird hi hats. The video starts with the final result and then the making journey. And yeah yeah, OS 1.30 but in Australia I woke up to that so this is the final video that will ever be on OS 1.21.

IDM & AVANT-GARDE SOUND DESIGN — RAW ANALOG FORCE VS DIGITAL PRECISION
Analog vs Digital by A Force Truly Evil is a hybrid sound pack for Elektron Syntakt featuring 128 patches and 31 demo patterns.
Created as a tribute to IDM, this pack blends the spirit of classic artists with contemporary experimental electronic music.
Built around the contrast between classic IDM and forward-thinking electronic sound, it is designed for IDM, drone, experimental electronica and ambient music, with a strong focus on minimalist and modern electronic styles.
LONG DESCRIPTION
Analog vs Digital is built around the hybrid nature of the Elektron Syntakt, combining analog and digital synthesis while exploring the contrast between classic IDM and contemporary electronica.
This pack comes from a place of pure love for IDM. Its sound palette draws inspiration from different corners of the genre:
🌅 Dreamscape Clouds is a collection of 50 presets + clips for Ableton Live that includes 10 Arps, 10 Pads, 10 Plucks, 10 Strings and 10 Synths. 🎆 The bank is inspired by cosmic, dub and dreamlike moods, giving it a sweet, atmospheric and dreamy, lo-fi sound.
The timbres have a wide spectrum: from warm and cold, noisy and detuned, soft and punchy, dark and bright, clean and distorted, deep and airy. Perfect for genres such as ambient, ID, downtempo, pop, cinematic, trance, deep, progressive, techno, breaks, jungle, drum and bass, dub and others.
🪐 Clips include additional motion, adding expressiveness. You can use them as a starting point and change notes, or use presets separately. The presets are presented in the Instrument Rack format, which combines synths and effects in a single device. Each Instrument Rack has 8 Macros that make it easy to develop timbre and adjust key parameters.
🎛️ The macros are a significant part of the soundset. They can change tone, LFO, distortion, space, effects mix, envelope parameters, add extra OSCs and others. You may control them via MIDI controller like Push, use them for automation, or map the macros to Ableton modulators like LFO, Shaper, and others. Modwheel makes the timbre brighter. Velocity affects volume and brightness.

"Offered here is a truly unique and intriguing analog synthesizer, discovered at an estate sale in Los Angeles belonging to a longtime record collector. This piece appears to be a custom-built or prototype-style instrument inspired by classic ARP designs—featuring elements reminiscent of both the ARP 2600 and later Odyssey models.
The layout, switching, and signal flow strongly reflect deep knowledge of vintage ARP circuitry, while the construction suggests a highly skilled builder with access to professional-grade metalwork and components. The unit is housed in what appears to be an ARP pedal synthesizer case, though the internal assembly is not permanently mounted—indicating this may have been a custom project or experimental build. It has one etched circuit board on a module and the rest are on perfboard with point to point wiring.
Notable features:
ARP 2600-style panel layout with Odyssey-style switching influences
Point-to-point wiring with included schematic diagram
Separate keyboard connected via cabling
Vintage analog components throughout
Powers on (unit lights up), though full functionality has not been tested
Whether this is a one-off custom build, a studio project, or an experimental instrument from a knowledgeable enthusiast, it represents a fascinating piece of analog synthesis history. With some restoration or calibration, it has the potential to become a highly expressive and unique instrument."
