40 mins of Buchla Modular Synth Ambient Drone to help you relax
video upload by The Galaxy Electric
"This was a laid back stream. We were in a drone-y mood. But we couldn't resist throwing in a few bloops and bleeps. Equipment used her is our Buchla style 200 series case, featuring the LEM218 V3. We've got a vocal chain featuring two Boss RE-20 Space Echo pedals feeding a Pigtronix Infinity Looper."
Make Noise 0-CTRL + Eurorack Patching Tips w/ Omri Cohen
video uploads by Perfect Circuit
"Make Noise's 0-CTRL is one of our favorite standalone controllers—we use it all the time alongside semi-modular and other desktop gear. But it also makes an excellent pairing with Eurorack modular synthesizers, as well!
In this two-part video series, modular synth expert Omri Cohen talks us through some of his favorite tactics for using 0-CTRL along with a Eurorack modular synthesizer. Patch tips, module recommendations, and sage CV wisdom abound!
In this video, Omri walks us through his thoughts on using 0-CTRL with quantizers, probability, and even some more advanced tricks using a sample & hold.

This is a very interesting instrument - I love these kinds of early digital systems!"

Introducing the Kodamo MASK1 Bitmask Synthesizer
video uploads by Kodamo
"The Kodamo MASK1 is a musical instrument focused on the sound interaction between the player and the keyboard. With its exclusive Bitmask™ engine combined with resonant filters, the MASK1 makes raw, gritty and ethereal sounds that respond in incredible ways to your playing style."
"What is Bitmask synthesis?
Bitmask synthesis is the method the MASK1 uses to generate its sound. Internally, oscillators do only have one waveform. Various tones are created by applying what is called a bitmask. This is a technique inherited from computing, which alters a number by masking some of its digits. Here we adapted this technique to make sound. Bit-masking creates complex wave shapes that are full of harmonics and give the MASK1 its sonic character."

Expressive & Characterful
The Kodamo MASK1 is a musical instrument focused on the interaction between the player and the keyboard. With its exclusive Bitmask engine combined with resonant filters, the MASK1 makes raw, gritty and ethereal sounds that respond in incredible ways to your playing style.
It's not just the notes
Most synths just play the notes you press. We went a bit further, by looking at how the notes interact with each other. Only by playing the keyboard, you can control when the attacks are triggered, how notes are tied or separated from each other, or if they should keep resonating or stop each other like if they were played on the same string on a stringed instrument. You will discover new ways of playing the keyboard.
Built with love
The MASK1 uses a high quality, 5-octave Fatar keyboard with velocity and aftertouch. It's fully made of painted metal, with two ALPS knobs and 23 KAILH mechanical switches. Everything is assembled in France with high attention to detail. We love creating musical instruments that have their own identity. We spent a lot of time selecting parts and suppliers to balance price and work ethics, while always aiming for the highest quality.
For live and studio players
With its compact size and light weight, the MASK1 will easily fit in your studio and is ideal for gigs. It remembers settings between sessions. With its unique sound, premium keyboard and MIDI connectivity, it can become the main keyboard of your setup.
