Make Noise Spectraphon Firmware Update: Linear Arrays and Spectral Adventures

Make Noise, the Asheville-based modular mavericks, are back with a firmware update for their Spectraphon resynthesizer, and it’s not just a bug fix. This release introduces linear array modulation to the Spectral Array Oscillation (SAO) mode, giving patchers a new way to traverse and manipulate spectral arrays. Alongside this, Make Noise has added a ramp LFO shape for sub-CV outputs and extended the minimum clock rate for LFOs, opening up slower, evolving modulations. The focus control also gets a new lease on life, now shaping spectral compression and expansion for even more nuanced timbral sculpting. True to Make Noise’s exploratory

Make Noise ReSynthesizer: A Modular Blackboard for Sonic Reinvention

Make Noise, the Asheville-based champions of modular experimentation, unveil the ReSynthesizer—a 7U system that’s less a fixed instrument and more a sonic blackboard for the adventurous. Drawing from eight years of module design, this system pairs the spectral wizardry of Spectraphon with the granular prowess of Morphagene, all underpinned by a robust CV generation suite. In typical Make Noise fashion, the video walks through the instrument’s conceptual roots, its patching philosophy, and a series of encounters with traditional instruments at Drop of Sun Studios. The ReSynthesizer isn’t just a collection of modules—it’s a platform for reimagining sound, inviting users to

Make Noise Bruxa: A Patchable Pathogen in the Modular Ecosystem

Make Noise returns to its roots of sonic experimentation with the Bruxa, a module that channels the heart of the Strega into Eurorack form. In this video, James Cigler demonstrates how Bruxa is far more than a lo-fi delay: it’s a shapeshifting sound manipulator that thrives on creative patching and modulation. From smeared arpeggios to howling feedback and rhythmic destabilisation, Bruxa’s filtering and feedback architecture invite the adventurous to sculpt textures that mutate and evolve. If you’re after a module that rewards hands-on exploration and patching outside the box, this Make Noise walkthrough is a must-watch.

MAKEN0ISE: Oscillators as Modulators – Phase Shaving for the Adventurous Patchhead

What if, instead of simply layering slightly detuned oscillators, you turned them loose as modulators for one another? In this latest video from MAKEN0ISE, the Asheville-based champions of experimental Eurorack, we’re treated to a deep dive into phase relationships, detuning, and the peculiar magic that happens when oscillators interact in less-than-obvious ways. The patch on show doesn’t just sum signals—it explores how phase drift and subtle tuning shifts can carve out new sonic terrain, with a healthy dose of frequency modulation and feedback thrown in for good measure. If you’re after inspiration for wrangling more from your VCOs than just

MAKEN0ISE Revisits the Dream Machine: Allen Strange’s Patch Reimagined

Make Noise, the Asheville-based Eurorack mavericks, return to their exploratory roots by revisiting Allen Strange’s iconic ‘Dream Machine’ patch. In this video, the Make Noise team takes us on a journey through a heavily modified version of Strange’s original concept, blending random voltages with sequenced structure to create a self-generating soundscape. The patch is a testament to the brand’s penchant for experimental synthesis, showing off how their modules can be pushed into unpredictable yet musically coherent territory. For those who thrive on the edge of chaos and control, this is a deep dive into the art of modular patching as

Microsound Alchemy: Make Noise Explores QMMG and XPO in Sonic Detail

Make Noise, the Asheville-based modular mavericks, return with a deep-dive into the world of microsound synthesis, putting the QMMG and XPO modules through their paces. This workshop-style video is a patcher’s delight, dissecting pulsar, glisson, and trainlet synthesis techniques with a focus on hands-on signal flow and creative modulation. Expect a heady mix of envelope sculpting, randomisation, and stereo wizardry, all delivered in Make Noise’s signature exploratory style. If you’re curious about how these modules can be wrangled into complex, evolving textures, this is a must-watch.

Make Noise QMMG Returns: Black & Gold Edition Reimagines a Classic

The Make Noise QMMG is back, this time in a striking Black and Gold Edition, and the Asheville innovators have chosen to revisit one of their most revered modules. In this official video, Make Noise walks us through the QMMG’s multifaceted design—four vactrol-based channels, flexible routing, and a feedback circuit that’s anything but vanilla. As always, the presentation is exploratory and patch-centric, showing how the QMMG can morph from a Buchla-inspired low-pass gate to a full synth voice or filter network. For modular enthusiasts, this is a deep dive into a module that’s as much about character as it is

Stereo Sorcery: Make Noise Explores Mimeophon’s Spatial Prowess

Make Noise, the Asheville-based champions of modular mischief, take us on a deep-dive into the stereo capabilities of their Mimeophon module. In this official walkthrough, the team methodically unpacks how the Mimeophon handles mono and stereo inputs, applies its ever-present Halo effect, and manipulates echoes across the stereo field with a suite of clever features. From skewed delays to ping-pong repeats and the enigmatic Swap mode, the video is a patcher’s guide to wringing spatial complexity from a single module. For anyone obsessed with stereo imaging and creative feedback paths, this is a revealing look at how Mimeophon can transform

Spectral Microsonics: Make Noise Dives into Modular Microsound

Make Noise, the Asheville-based champions of experimental Eurorack, return with a deep-dive into the world of Spectral Microsonics. In this video, the team explores complex sound design and microsound techniques using a patch built around the Morphagene, DXG, and a supporting cast of Make Noise modules. Expect a hands-on demonstration of pulsar, lysone, and framelit synthesis, plus a healthy dose of creative modulation and transient shaping. As always with Make Noise, the focus is on open-ended exploration and patching strategies that invite you to get lost in the details—and maybe discover a few feedback sanctuaries along the way.

Make Noise Bruxa: A Sonic Dialogue Between Tony Rolando and Alessandro Cortini

In this latest Make Noise conversation, Tony Rolando and Alessandro Cortini take us deep into the genesis and evolution of Bruxa, their new Eurorack module born from years of sonic experimentation. The video is a rare, candid look at how two minds—steeped in the worlds of Strega and modular improvisation—refined a prototype circuit into a tool for creative sound mutation. With Make Noise’s signature exploratory spirit, the discussion moves from hands-on patching anecdotes to the philosophical core of instrument design, all while situating Bruxa as both a product of lineage and a vessel for personal expression.
