"Just got the enclosures for our new tube synth Apparatus Mini — and I couldn't resist. Quickly recorded how it sounds fully assembled."

You might remember the Apparatus Mini project starting back in December. This is the first look at it in it's case enclosure.

Overwhelmed with SUPERBOOTH Posts?

If so, here are a few tips:

1. The News label will get you to the first post on new gear.

2. Use the Search box on the top right of the site to search for specific gear. For example Ziggy.

3. The brand label at the bottom of posts will filter all posts in order by a given brand. For example Polyend.

As for filtering out SUPERBOOTH posts, unfortunately there is no such filter. "-SUPERBOOTH" doesn't filter them out. You'll have to scroll down the page, and click next until you are caught up. But don't worry, the SUPERBOOTH rush usually only lasts for a few days. And remember, every single post here goes up by hand.

Note: all SUPERBOOTH videos from supporting members and banner sponsors go up as a thank you for supporting the site.

I also try to post all manufacturer videos as a record of synth history in the making.

Sounds from Superbooth 2026: Ferry Island Modular

Ferry Island Modular at Perfect Circuit

"Undertow from Ferry Island Modular is a two-dimensional wavetable VCO/LFO matrix for complex, spatial modulation, providing a powerful central nervous system for any modular system. With a 5 x 3 CV matrix, instead of a single VCO/LFO waveform, you get fifteen simultaneous outputs, each a unique position between two wavetable oscillators. Morph waveform and frequency across the horizontal axis with the mod generator across the vertical axis, taking you from clean to chaotic. No longer do you need to patch together disparate modulation sources in the hopes they can work together, the Undertow makes that a reality with so little effort it feels like cheating. Only for a moment though, as you start to unpeel the sonic onion of your modular system's potential with the Ferry Island Undertow as your sharpened steel.

Undertow Features

Morphing modulation matrix
15 bipolar CV outputs with LEDs
Two wavetable LFOs with wave, frequency, and bank control morphing along the X axis
Mod generator with selectable type shapes the Y axis from clean to turbulent
Clock inputs control left and right LFO frequency
EOC outputs
CV control with attenuation on wave and frequency
5 wavetable banks, more via firmware updates"
