Is the Behringer 2600 Eurorack compatible? Let's find out...

video upload by EdEditz

"Doing some measurements with the scope to see how high in voltage the oscillator outputs and the filter outputs are to see if they will work with a eurorack setup. It's possible if well attenuated but watch the video to see how high the voltages can get.

MEASURING THE B-2600 AR/ADSR SPEED with an oscilloscope.


"I've always been curious at the speed of the ADSR and the AR on the Behringer 2600 so I connected my oscilloscope to it and took some measurements. I start with the Voltage Processors, then the S&H Clock Pulse and the Noise output and from there to the Envelope Generators. I made a video of it because I thought other people might be interested in this information. I hope you don't fall asleep by the sound of my voice but you have to take the rough with the smooth LOL. Enjoy!!"

SOMA Synths Terra - First Look at the Production Unit & Factory Tour

video upload by sonicstate

"We were invited to visit Soma Sound Machines at their Warsaw factory and while we were there were shown the pre production model of the Terra - the unique and very sensitive instrument . Terra features twelve extremely sensitive nodes (cant think of what else to call them!) for playing pitches, plus five for modifying the timbre, there are also 7 modifier knobs which globally effect the sound with two being dependent on the algorithm used.

Despite the wooden case, Terra is a digital sound source and has multiple models which are played rather like instruments, each model has 64 variations. As usual, its a rather off the wall concept, but thats what makes Soma the way it is. In practice, its incredibly sensitive and flexible - reminds us of the Eagan Matrix instruments found in the Haken Continuum or the Osmose.

The Terra will be in production very soon and making its way into the stores."

VISIT: SOMA Sound Machines Factory in Warsaw

video upload by

"A couple of weeks back we were invited to visit the Soma Sound Machines factory in Warsaw, Poland. As well as a look at the first production models of the expressive Terra instrument, we got a look around their place.
PCBs and components are delivered here, the Through Hole hand soldered components are put onto the boards, any SMD (surface mount design) parts are sent off to the machine, units are tested put into the cases and shipped to distributors and customers. Lyra 8 , Kosmos, Pulsar-23 and Ether are made here and pretty soon the new Terra will be too.

Its actually a pretty cottage style industry, surprisingly small but also very efficient."

Strange Moog Source Trick

"The Moog Source is a great sounding but very limited synth so here's a little trick to get some extra playability out of certain sounds. It's possible this is just an issue with my unit but I suspect most Sources work this way."

Scrotum Lab - Yamaha DD-8 Circuit bending

video uploads by batchas

"Voltage controlled Yamaha DD-8.
Percussions sounds & rhythm by DD-8.

DD-8 is clocking my Scrotum Lab's "Mini-System" where Grilles, Le Seq and Tresses are active.
Grilles is clocked by DD-8. Le Seq is synched to Grilles. Tresses is triggered by Grilles.
Le Seq sequence is sent to the CV input I added on the DD-8.
Tresses is playing the Bells algorithm.
Mini-System is sent to effects."
