On tape loops, clocks, and sequences | patching Studio No.4 with Francesco Gennari
video upload by Frap Tools
"In his fourth étude, @francescogennarimusic crafts a meditative track by integrating a tape multitracker and a modular synth. The key feature of this patch is the synchronization of the two machines, achieved by using a tape track as a clock for the Usta sequencer, which in turn clocks everything else, from Sapèl to the @empresseffects Zoia."

Roland Juno 106 Famous Songs and Sounds

"Disclaimer:
This video is for educational and demonstration purposes only. All music is recreated from scratch using a Roland Juno-106 synthesizer. No original recordings, samples, or backing tracks were used. I do not monetize this video and do not claim ownership of any of the original compositions.
In the last Daft Punk clip, the Juno-106 pitch bend spring wasn’t working properly—it didn’t return to the center, so I had to return it manually. So it was a bit challenging 😁"

Pam's Plus Ornament and Crime are Melodic Gold
video upload by Metamyther
"In this video, we dive deep into two of the most powerful and versatile Eurorack modules for any modular synth setup: Pam's New Workout and Ornament & Crime. Whether you're building generative patches, syncing complex rhythms, or creating experimental textures for industrial techno or ambient electronica, these modules are essential tools for advanced modulation, quantization, and control. Recently I used both modules to create melodic variation for a given pitch sequence as a way to explore a new creative workflow."

Moog's LAST GREAT SYNTH: The Moog Matriarch
video upload by Noir Et Blanc Vie
"Subjective opinions within, those who do not understand subjective opinion may be excused lol
BUY THE NEW ALBUM HERE
https://noiretblancvie.bandcamp.com/a...
.....it's great! OK so, I really don't know what to say. As someone who makes music a lot, not all instruments inspire the creative process. I believe the Moog Matriarch does. I haven't bought a synth in a very long time, but this is a gorgeous piece, I'm not a hype man for gear, but sometimes you look back and see that you may have missed out on something...for me, the Matriarch was that one, and I'm grateful they had the dark version still available so I didn't have to show you the crayola colored version lol

Forces of Nature - Geysers (Buchla Music Easel Retro)
video upload by PanicGirlVids
"I’m especially fascinated by volcanoes at the moment - and in this case, by geysers in particular. Slow movements, forceful, steady, unstoppable.
A geyser is a rare type of hot spring that intermittently shoots hot water and steam into the air. Geysers form in volcanic areas where specific conditions exist: a heat source (usually magma beneath the surface), a steady water supply (from rain or snowmelt), and a plumbing system of underground channels and chambers. Water seeps deep into the ground and is heated by the magma. As it gets hotter, pressure builds up in the underground chambers until it suddenly forces the water and steam to erupt at the surface. There are about 1,000 active geysers worldwide, making them rare and spectacular natural features.
It’s worth remembering that we live in symbiosis with the Earth and all its creatures - and that we’re not here to rule over anything.

Oberheim is the 21st century return of the legendary company that helped fuel the original electronic music revolution in the 1970s. Now, just as then, Oberheim is guided by the vision of engineer and inventor, Tom Oberheim. Tom’s genius for innovation introduced the world to the first commercially available poly synth and other groundbreaking electronic instruments that literally changed the sound of music.
Today, Oberheim reawakens this extraordinary legacy by bringing the famed Oberheim sound to a new generation of instruments and artists. The company’s passion remains unchanged by time or technology — to once again provide the world with the finest-sounding analog synthesizers ever made.

"DISCLAMER : i have no affiliation with gotharman's instrument , just a third party builder
Here a quick demo of the actual prototype filterboard compatible with gotharman's instrument , inspired by the korg PS3100 resonator circuit, THIS IS NOT A CLONE.
still have some fine tune and modification to do, feel free to leave comment
Thank you for watching.

Djupviks Spektrum // What is a 'Switch Capacitor Filter'?
video upload by Lesjamusic
"🎛️ Djupviks Spektrum: The Filter That Clocks Itself 🎛️
Spektrum isn’t just another Eurorack filter. It’s a switched capacitor stereo filter that uses your input signal as its clock, turning audio into rhythmic glitches, stutters, and pulsing textures you won’t find anywhere else.
In this video, we break down:
✅ What a switched capacitor filter actually is (in plain English)
✅ How Spektrum turns your audio into patterns and sequences
✅ The unique stereo behavior and control layout
✅ Patch examples to unleash Spektrum’s chaotic beauty
Spektrum reacts to everything you feed it — arpeggios become glitchy basslines, noise turns into crunchy percussion, and waveforms transform into evolving rhythmic patterns.
If you’re looking to add a truly unique, reactive, and chaotic filter to your rack, Spektrum might just be the perfect machine.
Spektrum is available to buy as a kit from Thonk in the UK and Europe, SynthCube and Modular Addict in the US. SynthCube will be stocking some pre-built versions soon too.

Making Nuclear Music with Hainbach
video upload by Anthony Marinelli Music
"Join me for a rare opportunity to step into the incredible world of Hainbach at his studio in Berlin—filled with vintage nuclear test equipment he’s brilliantly turned into musical instruments… and plenty of other wild synthesizers!
Hainbach is known for making haunting, immersive soundscapes using everything from lab gear to tape loops to modular synths. His music feels like it's from another dimension—organic, rich, hypnotic and totally captivating. In this video, I explore his unique setup and we dive into a completely new palette of sounds together. It was inspiring to see how he breathes life into machines that were never meant to make music… and to try my hand at making "nuclear music" myself.
If you're into experimental sound design, synths, or just curious how scientific gear from the Cold War can become part of modern composition—this is something you’ve got to see (and hear)."
