A new series on tackling the challenge of building Eurorack modules is available now on YouTube. Molten Modular DIY will take you through the first steps and beyond into building a whole rack.
Another day another mystery synthesizer PCB from Behringer inviting us to "guess the product". A certain amount of cynicism appears to be creeping into the comments - are we getting bored with this game?
The strangely named Gilbert is a homage to the best era of Roland synths. Featuring technology from the SH-101, SH-09 and MC-202. It will be available in two weeks as a kit so you can build yourself a classic.
DinSync's Paul Barker has been sharing images and video of a new prototype synthesizer called Gilbert inspired by the classic Roland MC-202, SH-101 and SH-09. It's shaping up nicely.
