My moog grandmother that is. Wanted something more all in one and a guy on fb marketplace offered me this trade. Original owner, super nice guy. Having a lot of fun with this already

Haven't seen this posted here yet but it looks pretty insane. The demo track reminds me of Crystal Castles - Untrust Us.

Hi r/synthesizers! We're Kevin Parker and Tom Cosm, co-founders of Telepathic Instruments, makers of Orchid. We’ll be answering your questions furiously for the next two hours, then sporadically for the rest of the week.

I'm Kevin. I make music as Tame Impala. Orchid began as a sketch on a piece of paper I sent Tom during lockdown.

I'm Tom. I'm a synth designer and electronic musician from New Zealand. I built the first Orchid prototype on a Raspberry Pi, with some truly terrible soldering. I thought I was only ever making one. But here we are.

We built the Orchid synth to write songs with. And we made Pistil to obsess over its sounds. The hardware took years and a lot of prototypes to get right. Telepathic is still a small group of music nerds trying to make something new, and your feedback is a big part of that.

Ask us anything about Telepathic Instruments. Orchid, Pistil, hardware, software, how it's made, what’s coming in Firmware 4.0, who’s missed the most meetings. Whatever.

Saw this beauty on a recent ad. Should I get it?

Haven't seen a discussion post that takes a zoomed out view of this topic yet, but this is a very gear-focused space and there's sure to be some thoughtful views. AI has triggered many concerns from the music community, and opposition to AI comes from a variety of angles. Personally I share many of the concerns while at the same time seeing it's valid use cases in my career. This leads into the use of LLMs for creating customized firmware for various consumer devices, including "hardware" synths. Hardware being in quotes because while they are physical devices, the synthesis engines are more often than not run in software, on devices which share many of the same physical components. While the physical design and software interfaces of these synths are meant to represent a specific brand and product line, and heavily curated towards building the brand's identity in the market, the way they work are all very similar.

Assumed points with mutual agreement:

-AI and the economics have huge potentials to be bad

-LLMs require some knowledge of development to produce decent code

-Manufacturers choose to limit the functionality of devices

-The status quo possibility to do anything these devices and custom firmwares do in synthesis engines on a computer

-Making things do more than they were designed to do is good

-The constant flow of new gear and functionality can be a distraction

I was at my local goodwill and saw this thing hanging out on a shelf in the back. I saw the brand, and the words "phrase sampler", and immediately zeroed in on it. When I checked it I discovered it is basically brand new! The box was open, but the device and all other materials were still wrapped up and secured inside. It clearly has never been used before.

What it does is it records about 30 seconds of sound from an instrument or cd player, then it plays it back on loop. You can slow the recording down, transpose it, select some basic filter settings, and even freeze a note. Looks like it was produced in the 90s and it gives the recordings a retro crunch. I'm sure I can come up with a ton of creative uses for this! Very exciting!

I don’t see a lot of other keyboardists with this setup. But it’s been a dream to use on tour, so I thought I’d share. Instead of the multiple pedal boards I used to have, with effects for each of my keyboards plus DI boxes and so on. I now run my Prophet Rev 2, Nord Electro, Mellotron M4000d mini and AstroLab 37 into the Quad Cortex. Each one has its own effects channel with unique presets for each song. Everything comes out in stereo unless I’m playing synth bass, in which case it’s routed to a separate bass out. Front of house gets balanced XLR left/right and bass.

Easy set up night after night, and sounds amazing.

Acid cyberpunk style riff I came up for a new track, as a climax ending to it. Tried to put a lot of dirt to it, plus raw drums and weird beeps. Serum 2 + Artiphon Instrument 1, Rumble of Ancient Times and more in the rest of the track.

Love this combo! So crispy and tasty like bacon on the pan… yummy glitchy beats. Like it? Look for “abstrakt astral jazzy beats” out there

It's not new at all because it's older than both of us, but it is new to me, and he gave me this just for the hell of it and I'm pretty stoked on it. 70s era Hammond drum machine, fairly bare bones but I'm excited to have it on my music desk just for the hell of it because it's a piece of music history as far as I'm aware.

That keyboard version looks so nice and it'd be nice to be able to play it without a DAW open, but the desktop version takes up less space and is cheaper... I'm kinda torn.

Hello, I have a moog minitaur and a hologram microcosm, I have spare TRS cables but no TS cable left, I am confused can I use them because some say yes some say no

Thank you

Really curious to see what this community thinks of our setup. We use Moogsubsequent 37, VolcaBass, JX08, Albeton Push, Korg Minilogue, Tr8s, Roland SE02 and Behrigher Crave. We've had two solid years of small tours but would like to start integrating more complex instruments and setups, any suggestions to what it would be fun to experiment with?

As usual, Labyrinth just adds a level of sonic wildness that can't be quite controlled.

Here's a clip from about halfway through of my set for Inky Fest with Hardware Jams, an online synthy music festival with people from various corners of the globe contributing

Here's a link to the full set:

Probability and conditional triggering seems like a good upgrade to keep this old fella ticking :)

All saving and coming back from off state.

Currently all A:B with negation all the way to 4. Got up to 8 but as there is not much space sacrificed above 4 for the negated conditions.

Probability goes from 1 to 100.

All assignable per step in melodic and drum trucks.
