Introducing Cre8audio Programm - MIDI and CV Sequencer

Check with dealers on the right for availability.

"As electronic musicians, we’ve used every sequencer under the sun. We loved the speed of some and the randomness of others, but we hated having to choose. So, we built PROGRAMM.

It’s a creative playground that bridges the gap between human performance and algorithmic generation. Whether you’re meticulously stepping in/playing a melody or using real-time randomization to find new textures, PROGRAMM keeps up with your brain. And for those moments where you accidentally forgot to hit record before playing the best sequence you’ve ever written? We built an always-ready recall function to save your soul (and your track)

Total Versatility: Step it in, play it in, or let the machine take the lead.

Controlled Chaos: Dive into deep generative tools and real-time randomization that stay musical.

Are you bilingual? Programm is: MIDI and/or CV Programm loves both!

Be hands-on (and quickly) - with its 6 orange knobs you can tweak the main parameters per step with speed and without menu diving.

PROGRAMM is built for the sketch and the deep dive. Fast enough for your first idea, deep enough to take you the whole way."

Introducing Drum Farm by Knobula

video upload by knobula

Drum Farm is a Eurorack module dedicated to the cultivation and un-ethical treatment of drum sounds. It combines real-time drum synthesis, effect processes and sampling into a hands-on, multi-engine instrument, delivering up to four simultaneous voices and three effects at once."

Press release follows:

Knobula cultivates new ground in drum voice design with Drum Farm performance-focused Eurorack module

LONDON, UK: advanced modular synthesiser developer Knobula is poised to cultivate new ground with its upcoming Drum Farm Eurorack module — merging synthesis, sampling, and real-time effects into a single, hands-on instrument built for fast, intuitive sound design, empowering users to relentlessly sculpt, process, sample, and re-sample sounds grown from its wide range of virtual analogue and physically modelled drum and effects algorithms — readily representing the latest addition to its growing lineup of control-centric instruments embodying a no-screen, no-preset philosophy, as of April 21…

As an appropriate appellation, Drum Farm was inspired by Knobula Technical Director Jason Mayo’s background in computer animation, where vast ‘render farms’ generated thousands of realistic images with minimal human input; as a performance-focused Eurorack drum module occupying 24HP of rack space, it is organised into three core sections: a Drum Synth with 16 virtual analogue and physically modelled drum algorithms, an Effects engine offering 16 different realtime processes, and a digital Sampler with up to three playback voices — capturing the combined output of everything a creative user could conceivably do with it. By bringing all the essential building blocks together, Drum Farm allows for the creation of original sounds quickly and intuitively — whether shaping punchy kicks, layered snares, tuned percussion loops, cymbals, CV/Gate-controlled samples, or physically modelled drum membranes.

Moreover, Drum Farm’s onboard sampler can run automatically in the background, sampling into one of 16 sequential audio buffers. Ultimately, users can capture the drum synthesiser on its own or record hybrid combinations of synthesis, effects, and samples, which can themselves be resampled into richly layered percussion structures or loops. Additionally, an EXT (external) input opens the gate to the world of field recording or sampling directly from elsewhere in a Eurorack system and a row of CV and trigger inputs allows further influence to any assignable control, including the ability to switch samples, drum algorithms, or effect types on the fly.

Duly designed for fast, intuitive sound creation, Drum Farm positively encourages an immediate, iterative workflow — simply select a drum model, sculpt it, process it live through the effects, sample the result, blend it with another model, and repeat. As a result, complex and evolving sounds quickly emerge.

Embodying Knobula’s philosophy of promoting experimentation and tactile control reminiscent of classic real-world instruments, Drum Farm features no screens and no sub-menus. Instead, it is a performance-focused module that rewards hands-on exploration, invites happy accidents, and provides a fertile environment for sounds to flourish and grow.

It is possible to create fully hands-free generative patches, self-building sample libraries, or access to round-robin multi-samples since all controls are CV- or trigger-assignable via five CV/Gate inputs. Sensibly, sounds can be saved to a microSD card alongside a complete snapshot of the module itself, whereby buffers, knob positions, samples, and settings are stored together as a session — with up to 32 sessions per card — allowing users to return to their work, exactly where they left off. It is fair to say, therefore, that Drum Farm is always ready for both studio experimentation and live recall.

Thanks to Knobula cultivating new ground with Drum Synth, the relentless creation of drum parts in Eurorack has never been more immediate or rewarding. Attendees at London Synth & Pedal Expo 2026 may recognise the farm-themed product tease, with ‘alien cow abduction’ subsequently forming the core of Drum Farm’s promotional campaign video.

Shipping scheduled for June 2026, Drum Farm will be available to purchase — priced at £449.00 GBP (including VAT), with a choice of two faceplate colourways on offer — directly through the Knobula shop (https://www.knobula.com/shop), as well as via Knobula’s growing global network of resellers.

EEH Banana Rare German Vintage Synth - First encounter

video upload by The Associate

"Just serviced the rare EEH Banana from 1981. It´s a six voice analog synth with two oscillators per voice. This was from the first owner who bought it at Synthesizer Studio Bonn in the early 80s. Looks like an Oberheim but sounds more Moog-like in my opinion. Just demonstrating some of the first sounds I created on this synth."

ARTURIA Introduces Augmented PERSIA | Acoustic Instruments Reinvented

video uploads by Arturia

"Introducing Augmented PERSIA, a software instrument that unites the expressive depth of Persian and Middle Eastern instruments with the power of modern synthesis. From the resonant pluck of the Oud, Tar, and Saz to the breathy Ney and bowed intensity of Alto Kamancheh and Shah Kaman, each sound is captured in exceptional detail and can be morphed into bold, expressive hybrid textures."

Arturia Augmented Persia | A detailed breakdown and tutorial

video upload by CatSynth TV

"We take a deep dive into the world of Augmented Persia from our friends at Arturia. This new edition of the Augmented series of software synthesizers features Middle Eastern instruments - Oud, Tar, Saz, Nay, Alto Kamanche, and Shah Kaman - alongside a full complement of synthesizer engines, effects, and modulation options. We explore the sound set, take a deep dive into its features, build our own preset, and look at a few of the factory presets." 00:00 Introduction
