Stung To Death.

Pretty happy with the result! Was worried 3mm plexiglas might not be sturdy enough 🥲

Love the dichotomy of the two synths. My favorite creative corner.

Back at it again with another session! Making more bass focused music but not necessarily bass heavy if that makes sense.
Getting some cool atmospheric elements out of the Microwave like that warping pad at the beginning and end of this clip. I made some slight changes in the daw but this vid is a really close foundation. The link to the full vid is in the comments if you wanna check it! Lmk if u have any questions about the set up or what you think of the track! Thanks for listening.

How do I get the volca to be the master clock? I know they’re connected the right way I just don’t know how to sync the east beast/ change it to external clock

A few people asked to see more of how Tolhuin Chord actually works, so I finally found a little time to record a longer demo.

This is almost 3 minutes of just using the instrument — no talking. I start from boot and go through some of the controls: different timbres, inversions, arpeggiator, drums, tempo-synced tremolo, octave changes, and finally the looper, where I record a chord progression and play a melody over it.

The flute voice near the end is still one of my favorites.

One disclaimer about the audio: this was recorded directly with my phone's microphone. Tolhuin is already stereo — the PCM5102 DAC provides separate left and right channels, and it works fine with headphones and speakers. I just don't have the right cable/setup at the moment to record both channels properly into my audio interface.

For the next hardware revision I'm considering making this more convenient, possibly with separate L/R output jacks. The final output configuration isn't decided yet. I'd be interested to hear what you'd prefer for a DIY synth: a single stereo jack or separate L/R outputs.

I know some people are still waiting for the component list/BOM. I haven't forgotten about it — I just haven't had much time to work on Tolhuin over the last few days, and I wanted to use the little time I had today to show a bit more of how the instrument works.

The BOM itself already exists. I just want to clean it up and make sure what I publish actually corresponds to a reproducible DIY build rather than simply dumping my prototype notes online.

There's already quite a bit of technical information in the GitHub repository for anyone interested in following the development.

Right now I'm also working on the harmony side of the instrument, particularly voicings and voice leading. That's becoming a pretty interesting part of the project, and I'm trying to improve it without losing the immediacy of just pressing a chord button and playing.

I'm also still figuring out how to approach crowdfunding and a first small batch of DIY kits. I have a lot to learn about that side of things, so I'm taking it one step at a time.

Thanks again for all the interest in the first post. I really wasn't expecting that response.

This thing actually looks pretty interesting

OP-Z and synth apps fun and craziness like techno

lol

Have fun!

P.S. this might contain some drum loops by Axel Karakasis ,

many thanks!

Bests,

SYNTH JAM 2

This Jam includes the Prophet 5, Prophet 6 and the OB-X8.

Hope you guys enjoy it!

The arpeggiator is for sure my favourite function on the Replay!

I really liked the new intellijel performance case having a vesa mount as part of it. I do think although it was be super easy to enable that on any case.
Happy that I’ll have easier reach from the case to the matriarch

Just a warning to anyone in the market. There are some good deals to be found on Vinted but also now a lot of fake posts cropping up recently. Be wary of a price in the 70s and users with no reviews or other items.

So as the title goes, I recently acquired a Yamaha qx7 sequencer and have the midi out from the Yamaha going into the midi in on my behringer monopoly, the thing is I get the qx7 going but it isn’t recording anything

I attached a url to a YouTube vid of the sequencer I have but when I try to do as the guy says it simply doesn’t work for my setup

A print I made for the Oberheim OB-8! Love the sound of an Oberheim. Enjoy!!

Hi, I'm a gigging keyboardist in the Toronto area and I've been looking to buy my first synth/stage keyboard I can use for gigs and music production. I've had my eyes on the Yamaha Ck61 as an affordable pick and I think it checks a lot of the boxes for me however I just can't get behind the pitch bend wheel and I much more enjoy the pitch joystick on the Juno-D6.

I'm looking for a keyboard with as much flexibility as possible and something in a similar price range as the Yamaha CK61

Please let me know if you have any suggestions!

Looking for a good reverb pedal to use for ambient music. Something that’s good for soundscapes. My plan is to use it as a send effect on a hardware mixer mostly. Ideally something in the 200-400 dollar range give or take. I’ve had a bit of an eye on Slöer and Cloudburst but having a bit of decision paralysis at how many other options there are aside from those. Thank you!

Hello!

I need some of you synth gurus to help me out with picking up my next synth.

I've narrowed it down to:

Teo 5 Desktop

Moog Matriarch

Take 5 desktop

Rev2 desktop

my interest is in that same order. I already own a Subsequent 37, mother 32 and subharmonicon. I've always loved the Matriarch sound but I think given what I already have, I would get more use out of a poly with a bit more diverse sound capability.

I mainly make house music, deep house, electronic. id like something that can cover pads, chord stabs, keys etc. I use my Sub37 for anything low end.

I keep flip flopping between Teo and Take 5 but I'm more towards Teo at the moment.

its so hard to understand the pros and cons of those two synth so if you own any and can give me a few pros and cons between the two, I would really appreciate it.

Mmmm delay 🤤

Hey i really need help trying to make a veridis quo synth using vital, i am new to the hobby
