The Unperson Unleashes the Maneco Labs Groan: Eurorack Mayhem for the Brave

Strap in, mates—The Unperson is back with a deep dive into the Maneco Labs Groan, a Eurorack module that’s as unpredictable as a possum at a backyard BBQ. This isn’t your average oscillator; it’s a dark drone beast that blurs the line between sound generator, texture machine, and straight-up sonic mischief. The Unperson’s hands-on, no-nonsense style takes us through the Groan’s wildest patches, showing off its ability to spit out everything from haunted ambience to full-blown noise storms. If you’re after a module that’ll keep you guessing (and maybe scare your neighbours), this one’s for you. Get ready for some

ALM TV’s Turismo: Iterative Drones and Tape Loops in a Modular Playground

ALM / Busy Circuits steps away from the groove box stereotype with their Turismo modular workstation, diving into the world of iterative drone composition. In this hands-on ALM TV video, the team demonstrates how Turismo’s stereo I/O and flexible module selection can be harnessed for evolving soundscapes, especially when paired with a trusty four-track cassette recorder. The patching is practical, the workflow is exploratory, and the results are anything but predictable—showcasing Turismo’s ability to morph from beat machine to ambient laboratory. If you’re curious about how a modern Eurorack system can blur the lines between structured sequencing and freeform sonic

ALM TV’s Turismo: Sculpting Storms in the Modular Domain

ALM TV takes us on a deep dive into the Turismo, their flagship Eurorack modular workstation, demonstrating just how far this system can stretch beyond beats and grooves. In this video, the team synthesizes an entire rainstorm—raindrops, thunder, and all—using only the modules and utilities within the Turismo. The focus is on patching techniques, clever use of noise and filtering, and layering to create convincing environmental soundscapes. For those who think modular is just for techno, this is a masterclass in using ALM’s toolkit for detailed sound design and cinematic textures.

ALM TV’s Turismo: A Modular Workstation with Character and Clout

ALM TV pulls back the curtain on the Turismo, their new all-in-one Eurorack workstation that fuses analog warmth with digital flexibility. This isn’t just a greatest-hits bundle—it’s a thoughtfully curated system designed for both modular newcomers and seasoned patch veterans. In their latest video, ALM walks us through building a full track from scratch, highlighting the Turismo’s blend of sampling, sequencing, DSP effects, and modulation. With its travel-friendly size and playful ALM design, the Turismo aims to be as comfortable in a rucksack as it is in a studio rack, promising a hands-on, exploratory patching experience.
