"Unsettled" Ambient jam with Dreadbox Artemis, Digitakt II, Arturia Keystep Pro
video upload by Aurélien Vieira Lino
"Working on a track with the beautiful @Dreadbox-synths Artemis and @WeAreElektron Digitakt 2."
Dreadbox Artemis - manipulating an arp with onboard effects only. No talking.
video upload by Christopher White
"Another experiment with the Artemis to ascertain it's usefulness in a live setting. I need to start pairing it with other instruments now.

OAM's Patience - A Eurorack LFO Module With a Cycle Rate That Can be Set for Decades
Folding & Unfolding Sine Waves w/ Patience and XPO video upload by Olivia Artz Modular
via Kickstarter
"Patience is an LFO that allows you to set the duration of a change in terms of seconds, minutes, hours, days, month, years, or decades.
Our thinking
Eurorack is widely considered to be an esoteric and expensive way to make music. That’s one framing. Another framing is that Eurorack is a mid-90s platform for modular electronic art that lasted. VRML came and went. RSS flourished and rescinded. Web pages don’t really use HTML anymore. But Eurorack is still. It is a time-tested and community-driven foundation for building conceptual art. For installation art. For slow art. In these contexts the modules that you already have can transform in meaning.
For instance, a clock divider may be used for tracking musical time and for building up musical rhythms. But if your clock divider has primes as an option and you trigger it once a day, the 7’s output will give you a pulse a week. Suddenly you’re patch-programming a calendar. You’re now keeping track of time on the scale of years. You’ve moved from the music of humans to the music of the seasons.
This is where Patience comes in. To help your patches operate at these time scales we made an LFO capable of making a single modulation over the course of hours, days, months, years, or even decades.
Why me
For more than twenty-five years I’ve been studying, designing, and programming systems for slow sound art. Under Pauline Oliveros I studied and practiced deep listening. I worked with Seth Cluett on glacial multi-channel performance systems. I’ve cared deeply about slow art my entire life. Patience is an expression of this and I will give it everything I have.
Why Kickstarter
If we know up front that we have guaranteed orders for Patience we can afford to dedicate the time that this idea deserves. Refining the design, circuitry, software, and assembly process. This is the only way we can foresee making the best possible version of Patience, so here we are.

Polysynthi Loops
video upload by Memetune Studio
"Here's a happy/sad tune on the ultra rare and quite exquisite EMS Polysynthi. Maybe only about 30 of these synthesisers were ever made, and probably just a handful are left in the wild. It came out in 1978 to rave reviews (https://www.muzines.co.uk/articles/em...) but then disappeared in spectacular fashion when other polysynths came to market around the same time (Prophet 5, Korg PS3100, Yamaha CS80, Polymoog, Roland Jupiter 4), most of which had huge corporate advertising budgets behind them. But the EMS had a number of unique things going for it, such as 49 note polyphony (albeit sharing one filter / VCA -- it is essentially paraphonic, like the Polymoog), 2 LFOs with a clever routing system, pressure sensitive keyboard, and a voltage controlled analogue delay section. But above all, it has a totally "of-its-time" sound like no other synth I know - it creates instant late-70s happy/sad tones like nothing else in my studio. And the other thing - JUST LOOK AT IT
This is a live performance using the Polysynthi and the Concrete Box (stereo loopers) to layer up multiple passes of melodies
As always, thanks for watching, and enjoy the tones"

Getting Started: What is Slew in modular synthesis?
video upload by Noise Engineering
https://noiseengineering.us/products/mimetic-digitwolis/
"A slew limiter smooths out changes in voltage. Instead of a signal jumping instantly from one value to the next, slew creates a gradual transition between them.
One place you'll find slew is built right into Mimetic Digitwolis.
This video is part of our Getting Started blog post:
https://noiseengineering.us/blogs/loq...
Let's start with a simple sequence going to Manis’ Pitch input. With slew turned off, every note changes instantly. Now we'll increase the slew amount. Instead of abrupt jumps, the notes glide smoothly into one another, creating classic portamento.
Slew isn't just limited to pitch .
Here, another lane on Mimetic Digitwolis is sending stepped modulation to the Low Pass Filter input on Manis. Without slew, each change is immediate. By adding slew to that lane, those abrupt steps become smooth transitions, creating a more fluid, evolving timbre.
Let’s hear them both together, with slew applied to the pitch and filter modulation.
While dedicated slew limiter modules offer additional features like independent rise and fall times or CV control, even a simple slew function—like the one built into Mimetic Digitwolis—can add a lot of expression to your melodies and patches.

URANO MERCURIO NETTUNO | Doctor Fungus #arpoloop
video upload by LepLoop
"🌌 Voyage 6: The Final Descent 🛰️
The journey concludes. In the grand finale of The ArpoLoop Space Sessions, Doctor Fungus takes us on a sonic voyage through the outer giants URANO and NETTUNO, with a final, searing pass by MERCURIO.
This session begins in the stillness of a deep VCO drone, gradually shifting as the ArpoLoop’s internal logic accelerates. Watch the transition from smooth, ethereal waves into a high-speed glitch landscape—a true testament to the machine’s chaotic beauty.
