Introducing the Nebulophone
The Nebulophone is an Arduino based synth with a stylus keyboard. It has adjustable waveforms, a light controlled analog filter, LFO, and arpeggiator that can be clocked over IR.
This is a beginner kit and does not require an Arduino programmer board.

Macbeth for iPad
This iPad-free video captures Ken MacBeth of MacBeth Studio Systems testing out the new MacBeth Mk1 Oscillator in 5U format, surely soon to be part of an X-Series Modular Synthesizer monster synth.
via macbethsynthesizers:
More test/demo of the MacBeth Mk1 Oscillator in 5U format….shown here- working with the multiturn potentiometers- also ‘glide’ switches in and out. Both oscillator outputs are Sawtooths….! Towards the end of this video- watch as I use the ’stability’ control…
The Accelerator, looking pretty darn good to me
Subtractive synth with 3 OSCs and two External inputs, multimode filters, arpeggiator and much more.
The Accelerator features the first motion tilt controller in a full size keyboard.
The Accelerator is perfectly prepared for your Live performances. A lot of synthesizers nowadays do not offer direct patch selection anymore. Instead of using direct access push buttons you have to dial in the desired patch and press enter. The Accelerator makes sound selection instantly available at your fingertips with dedicated patch select buttons. Furthermore, the unique program chain feature allows for programming a chain of programs that selects the correct patch automatically for you.
Another stunning new feature is the the built in 3D sensor. Movements of the keyboard are converted into Modulation data. This brilliant addition allows for controlling parameters like pitch, the filter frequency or modulation depths by lifting up or shaking the keyboard.Do you love step sequencers and arpeggiators? The Accelerator would not be a Radikal synthesizer if we did not integrate some sequencing goodies. You can enter some notes into the step sequencer, transpose the sequences with the left hand while performing a solo at the upper end of the split keyboard.
The powerful warm and crispy sound of this new synthesizer flagship will become the center of your keyboard setup. If you would like expand the Accelerator‘s sonic power even more you can get additional voices with our DSP expansion module. The DSP expansion does not only add extra polyphony to the Accelerator – you will also be able to use up to eight independent synthesizer sounds at a time with the integrated multimode feature.
Introducing the new KORG Monotron

Analog synthesis returns, in the legendary KORG tradition
Korg is no newcomer to the joys of analog synthesis. Back in the 1970s, our astounding fully polyphonic PS-3000 Series and our affordable semi modular MS Series set the bar for creative musicians around the globe. Surely one of the most popular of Korg’s analog synthesizers was the coveted MS-20, famous for its dynamic sound creation capabilities and its fat, snarly, expressive filter. Kept popular by dance and electronic artists, this legendary MS-20 filter came back to life using the Component Modeling Technology in Korg’s Legacy software collections. Now you can experience the glorious, evocative MS-20 filter along with true analog synthesis in Korg’s new monotron Analogue Ribbon Synthesizer!!
Analog on the go!
Powered by two alkaline AAA batteries, the compact monotron can be held in one hand. Although small enough to easily carry with you, the amazing monotron is packed with KORG’s legendary analog technology, generating thick and powerful sounds. Concentrating on the most important sound parameters, the controls have been streamlined as much as possible. The panel contains only five knobs and one switch. With this level of simplicity, now anyone can easily enjoy the world of analog synthesizers.
Product Highlights:
- Full-fledged, true analog synthesizer: VCO, VCF, LFO
- Inspiring, easy-to-play ribbon keyboard
- Intuitive, fun-to-tweak controls
- Features the same classic analog filter found in the legendary Korg MS-10 & MS-20
- Filter any external source using the audio input jack
- LFO can modulate either pitch of filter cutoff
- LFO Rate knob features cool LED visual indicator.
- Battery operation and palmtop size equals true portability
- Internal speaker/headphone jack lets you enjoy the sound anywhere – alone or with friends!
New analog challenger to the microMOOG
This is a demo of the Helmtronic Challenger – a new retro-style analog synthesizer.
Only at the MusikMesse you have the opportunity to meet with a manufacturer of analog synthesizers all buttons and knobs. Challenger and equipment with four oscillators, two filters, dual audio path and panel-style recliner Minimoog. The price, once reached the marketing of the series, should be very interesting.
Finally Roland has picked up the charm of the 1950s
In this great promotional video you cannot but smile, who wouldn´t want to buy this, LOL

Let´s go retro:
MrRay SeventyThree – free VST piano synth
Although it may sound like a sampled instrument, MrRay SeventyThree is still synthesized, as the sound it produces is 100% calculated in real time. What characterizes this version of MrRay is a series of “imperfections” introduced in order to capture, with the highest possible fidelity, the sound of a Mark I. There are mallet noises, wooden noises, metallic artifacts and changes of volume for each single note.
Also, the lower notes have a particular “growl” when you hit them hard, and when you hit more keys really hard, you’ll hear them “vibrating”, originally due to the instability of the harp assembly inside the real instrument. You won’t hear twice the exact same sound when you play it. When keys are released you’ll hear the noises produced by the “dampers” which stop the vibration of the tines.
