Rob Papen WirePluck - A detailed review of all four engines

video upload by CatSynth TV

"We preset WirePluck, a hybrid synth from Rob Papen that combines four different sound engines: a unique metal-wire model (which gives the instrument its name), a Karplus-Strong plucked string, a 3-operator FM voice, and a virtual analog voice. We go over all the engines as well as other features and a few of the factory presets.

The Rise - Modular synth hypnotic house set

video upload by Perceptes

""The Rise" is a set of hypnotic house music performed live with my Eurorack modular synthesizer, OXI Instruments's One MKII, and the Polyend Press. I added captions to explain a bit about how it was made. Enjoy!

Torso Electronics S4 & T1 Workshop at SchneidersLaden

video upload by SchneidersLaden

"We welcomed Torso Electronics to SchneidersLaden for a hands-on workshop with their S4 Sampler and T1 Sequencer in early 2026 - here is a video documentation of the event. A great session for anyone interested in synthesis, sound design, sequencing and creative electronic music tools.

The Torso Electronics S4 is a unique instrument blending tape-style workflows with modern granular synthesis. The Torso T1 combines popular generative sequencers like Euclidean sequences, Turing machines with arpeggiators, chord generators and rounds everything off with extensive random functions. Both are highly innovative and very fun to play!"

SetonixSynth SKYWAVE & SCAFFOLD / feature rich 4-segment VCO and expander / playthrough

video upload by BRiES and SetonixSynth

"SkyWave is what happens when you combine a versatile oscillator core with 4 waveshapes, 4 ringmodulators and a sequential switch going at audio rates. The result is an ultra-capable module that delivers interesting complex tones that you simply can't get with just a regular VCO. The built-in normalisations are all accesible by patching up the module differently (resulting in even richer timbres). The expander Scaffold adds direct control over each segment and spits out a subdivided clock which can be used for whatever you want!

In this video I tried to showcase most of the functionality and features of SkyWave and Scaffold."

SynBe - Inspired by 1975 Japanese Synth Bass (demo)

video upload by Hügelton Instruments

"This series' first synthesizer simulation is of a rare Japanese-made bass synthesizer.
This synthesizer possesses features rarely seen in modern synthesizers, such as a unique traveler and simplified oscillator sources.
We has poured its passion for this hard-to-find synthesizer into this simulation software.

Features
・Monophonic synthesizer architecture
・Triangle, Square, Saw, Pulse and Phaser modes
・4’, 8’ and 16’ octave ranges
・Classic Traveler filter
・Twelve factory presets
・Full MIDI CC control
・Separate modern modification section

Available for macOS (AUv2 / VST3) and Windows (VST3).

SynBe is a monophonic bass synthesizer inspired by a 1975 Japanese Synth Bass.

I had wanted one for a long time, but finding one is difficult. Rather than wait for the right unit to appear, I started with what was still available: surviving technical documentation, published circuit information, material from related instruments, and other technical references.

Some sections are well documented. Others are incomplete. Where the original circuit cannot be fully determined, SynBe uses the available evidence, related designs, conventional modelling techniques, and listening tests.

Features

Monophonic synthesizer architecture
Triangle, Square, Saw, Pulse and Phaser modes
4’, 8’ and 16’ octave ranges
Classic Traveler filter
Twelve factory presets
Full MIDI CC control
Separate modern modification section
2x internal oversampling
Versioned DSP kernel
Special nice & great graphics by ME!
Archaeology

Most of my previous reconstruction projects started with an instrument sitting in front of me.

SynBe did not.

The reconstruction began with surviving technical documentation and circuit information. I also studied material from contemporary and related instruments where the available information was incomplete.

The signal path was reconstructed section by section, from the oscillator and waveform circuitry through the Traveler filter and VCA.
