"Was able to drop by and visit the new Dreadbox office and workshop on a recent trip down to Greece. Pay attention because Yiannis drops some subtle hints about products in the pipeline. And yes, some of them might not be monosynths.

Video timeline:
00:23 - Introduction (beer and band babble)
03:38 - Touring the new offices
13:19 - Touring the new workshop

Minus the drums, 96% of the sounds in the music in this video is the Dreadbox Nyx v2.

The last visit to Dreadbox was in 2018, and here's the link to that video:" [posted here]

Moog Matriarch: Here on Earth - an ambient demo


video upload by MIDERA

"My daughter turned 4 today. She's very much into Octonauts, so I have to be Captain Barnacles, Peso, or Shellington (and I think my impressions are pretty spot on). She got her wish - which was to have Shellington put her to bed tonight. There's nothing I enjoy more than being with her and reading books or pretending to be octonauts (which happens to take up probably 80% of our time together). When I ask her who her favorite person is, it's no longer Papa. It's 'Barnacles' or 'Shellington.'

I imagine, years in the future, she'll call me from college and I'll say, 'Kwazii, sound the octo-alert,' And she'll just say 'Daaaaad....'

Anyway, this track just sort of represents those lucid moments I have with her, with my family, just enjoying what really is the best part of being here on Earth.

"I absolutely adore the aggressive tone of oscillator sync and so would like to share a small patch with you guys . This incorporates the use of the random wave from the LFO to, bring forth some delicious analog aural pleasure."

1993 Quasimidi Quasar M.A.S.S. SN 801-13908

"The Quasar from Quasimidi is a rack-mounted digital synthesiser module which was released in 1993. A synth that was satisfying to the Techno crowds of the day and also General MIDI friendly.

The presets and drum sounds eschewed the typical General Midi specification, which was in vogue at the time, in favour of electronic and trance techno styles. The Quasar included an arpeggiator, which was an unusual feature in 1993.

The synthesizer also features a robust set of effects from Chorus, vibrator to delays, reverbs, and vocoder effects."

Sequential Adds Patch Morphing to Pro 3 Multi-filter Mono Synth


Pro 3: Patch Morphing With J3PO video upload by

Update: added video above.


In addtion to 32 New Wavetables and 128 New Sounds, Sequential adds patch morphing to the Pro 3.

via Sequential:

San Francisco, CA—July 9, 2021—Sequential today announced a major enhancement to their acclaimed Pro 3 multi-filter mono synth — patch morphing. Users can now morph between two different sounds using one of the synthesizer’s many real-time controllers such as its mod wheel, touch slider, or key pressure. This provides many new possibilities for real-time expression and dramatic timbral variation.

To use the new feature, users will need to upgrade to version 1.2 of the Pro 3 operating system, which is currently available in pre-release or “Beta” format on the Sequential User Forum. The OS upgrade is provided free of charge to Pro 3 owners.

“The Pro 3 is already the deepest, most versatile mono synth we’ve ever designed — and we keep making it even more awesome,” said Sequential founder Dave Smith: “Now patch morphing takes live performance to a whole other planet. The sonic territory that lives between two different patches is pretty vast, and with real time control of that, users will get to places they’ve never heard before.”

A hybrid instrument, the Pro 3 features three classic analog filters (Prophet-6, OB-6, and ladder) and three oscillators (two VCOs and one wavetable oscillator) along with a 16-track sequencer, and the ability to connect with modular synths through its four control voltage ins/outs. The feature set is rounded out with a multimode arpeggiator, three LFOs, four loopable ADSR+delay envelopes, dual digital effects (delays, reverbs, and various time-based effects), tuned feedback, analog distortion, and extensive modulation possibilities. The synth is also capable of 3-voice paraphonic operation.

Sequential is offering two versions of the Pro 3, the standard edition, and the Pro 3 SE, a special edition that puts the same synthesis power into a collector-worthy design with a tilt-up control panel and premium-grade walnut trim.

The Pro 3 standard edition has a US MAP of $1,599.

The Pro 3 SE has a US MAP of $2,099.
