"The SL-1 Synthlab is a 100% true analog circuitry synthesizer with subtractive synthesis. The type of design started in the early 1970s with voltage-controlled modular systems. The use of the low pass filter on the transistor cascade means the SL-1 Synthlab sounds very similar to well-known early Moog synthesizers."

Vintage Synth Lab demo Eurorack modular analog synth VCO-81 VCF-74 D-ENV

video by Vintage Synthlab

"Analog modular eurorack synthesizer demonstrating the fast envelope action of the D-ENV (Delayed Envelope Generator), with the VCF-74 Mk2 (analog diode-ring filter module based on the 1970s mini-Korg 700 700s), and our VCO-81 (CEM3340 precision, high-quality analog VCO - unreleased). Our N-STH (Noise + Sample/Track & Hold) is used to provide white noise for extra snare sound, S&H routed to the HP filter of the VCF-74, and Track & Hold from another N-STH is used to slew the pitch of the CV controlling the VCO-81 (pitch) 1v/octave.

The result is a warm, analog, singing mono-synth voice, full of endless possibilities of character to dial in whether live, recording, or used as a tool for deep sound design in the pro and commercial audio industries."

VSL AWM-3 Analog Wavefolder - waveshaper mixer compressor sound design tool

video by Vintage Synthlab

"Eurorack modular synth wave-folding, mixer AWM-3 by Vintage Synth Lab. The AWM-3 is a mixer, matrix mixer, compressor, wave-folder, and excellent module to accept multiple independent LFO sources for incredibly rich and warm analog chorus-like sounds. 16hp Made in Portland, Oregon, USA"

VSL Eurorack analog modular synth demo JAWS theme wavefolder AWM-3, env gen D-ENV, filter VCF-74

Vintage Synthlab

"JAWS theme on Eurorack modular synth.

Here we have an AWM-3 wavefolding, while a D-ENV drives the front end (input) of the AWM-3 first stage to created dynamic wave folding (as opposed to static wavefold). Each stage has modulation injected to it's bias / threshold / offset CV input, allowing for a big, chorus-like sound.
The VCF-74 mk2 is our LP filter also being driven by independent D-ENV for both filter cutoff and VCA. The VCO-81 is our synth voice--being driven by the Beatstep Pro Sequencer #2 (yellow)."

Vintage Synth Lab Eurorack Demo - Depeche Mode - To Have and To Hold

Vintage Synthlab

"Short demo of VSL Eurorack modules playing To Have and To Hold by Depeche Mode. Wavefolding is dynamic, driven by the D-ENV (delayed env gen module) VCA feeding the AWM-3 (wave folding mixer module), in triple-wave fold configuration.

Next we see three modulation sources, all injected into the three independent wave-fold stage bias or threshold (CV input). This creates a HUGE chorus sound. Think of it as the PWM for non-rectangular waveforms (sine, tri, ramp, saw).

And the use of our VCF-74 (analog filter) with additional D-ENV modules, creates the widest array possible for analog synthesis texture, dynamics, and overall character."

Vintage Synth Lab Eurorack AWM-3 Halloween 2020

Vintage Synthlab

"Wishing everyone a safe, healthy, happy, and creative Halloween!

The AWM-3 is a 3 channel mixer, with additional features such as wave folding/shaping (for both independent positive and negative folding), per channel.

Channels can be chained together to create multi-folding, up to triple wave folding. A compressor allows for dynamic signals (VCA driven) to fine tune a wide array of new sonic character.

Bias is adjustable (threshold for wavefold action), as well as a level trim (6 total) for each channel's positive and negative bias modulation via the additional CV inputs.

Each channel also has a buffered output.

And last, master mix, and three matrix mix combo outputs are always accessible."

Fenestra: Pico System III workshop for visually impaired

Erica Synths

"FENESTRA is a global initiative to support visually impaired musicians
Learn more & join the cause!
https://fenestra.lv/

On 5th of September first Fenestra workshop took place in the main hub of the initiative - Synthlab in Riga, Latvia. The workshop was organized by Erica Synths and gathered 4 visually impaired musicians from Latvia to learn the possibilities of the Pico System III. It was led by Mario who despite his visual impairment has been mastering modular synthesis for several years in addition to playing trumpet and being a DJ. All the participants were gifted Pico Systems to endorse their continuation of electronic music explorations.

VCO-81 percussion / tom drum synthesis demo 20160625

Published on Jun 26, 2019 Vintage Synthlab

"Two VCO-81s, utilized as the main body voicing of the percussion sound (tom drums in this case). A modulation and equal tracking of exp FM is applied via a D-ENV env gen. One of the VCO-81s is also receiving a slight Lin FM of ~2 Hz..

AWM-3 used as attenuators / gain for CV routing to VCF-74's LP filter cutoff (of white noise portion of drum sound) to allow for custom spread, aka 'keyboard tracking' mixed with a D-ENV env gen.

A huge percussive sound can be synthesized and shaped in a very wide variety of drum sounds, metallic, organic, wood, small to large."

VCO-81 prototypes with brief SYNC modes and FM explored.

2. VSL VCO-81 Eurorack 12hp precision analog VCO CEM3340 4-voice unison tracking demo

Here we have 4 of our VCO-81 prototypes sharing the same CV (1v/oct) source, acting as one quad VCO voice in unison. Tracking for our design is the most accurate and linear response of any CEM3340 on the synthesizer marketplace as of today. Pricing and availability TBA soon.
