Zynthian V5 improvisation

... using the internal sequencer.
Using the #ZynAddSubFX plugin mostly, but also #Linuxsampler for the drums and piano.
Some TAL Reverb III for those big rooms.
#Zynthian V5 will be available later this year. Zynthian is an open source synthesizer powered by Linux and various free and commercial plugins, all wrapped up in a sleek-looking box with a unified UI and a number of sequencers. If you don't want to buy the kit, you can also download the system image and build one yourself using a #raspberrypi 4.

Here's what I have in my setup at the moment. Want to have that, too? Please use the followings links and support me:

MPC One, Novation PEAK, Reface DX, Strymon Nightsky, Strymon Volante, Strymon Iridium, Zoom MS 70 CDR, Korg NanoKontrol 2, Korg NanoKey, Akai EWI USB, Zoom R24, Zoom H5, Yamaha MT7:

Some bands / artists I've been following for a long time are (among others) Massive Attack, Pink Floyd, Pet Shop Boys, Archive, A-Ha, Yes, Porcupine Tree, John Mellencamp, Jean-Michel Jarre, Metallica, Peter Gabriel and Perturbator. So my music will kind of sound like those (without ever reaching the greatness of those artists, of course). :-)

like some wee mpc, very ingenious. Form-factor spot-on, functionality...well, beautiful...

[MrYattle]

<3 your videos, always so smooth and filled with positive vibes. Really grateful for all the efforts that you are making to bring open source/music/synth to the world

[brianhall]

I like this ... very cool - perfect travelling kit for when you really do have to take your "studio" (or a part of it) on holiday

[CodemanRhodes]

Hi Floyd! This is really nice! Thanks for showing us!!!
Will now go downstairs and create also some new stuff with my v5 😊

[CrusaderGeneral]

Very impressive and HQ production.. That box seems to be well worth the $$

[roncordell]

I'm embarrassed that I didn't see this until I saw it posted in the Zynthian Discord -- but this is amazing (not entirely unexpected ;) )! I'm so glad you had time to put something like this together to showcase the Zynthian v5. I also have one of the beta units and it's really well done - but there's nothing that prevents you from taking your own path on the hardware and using different displays, different audio output, etc. I'll point out that Zynthian v5 uses the ZynDAC which is based on a Burr-Brown DAC chip but it sounds really good, and now that RPi 4's are becoming available again at reasonable prices it's really awesome. There are many capabilities that I haven't yet had time to explore like SooperLooper and MOD UI as well as pd support.

Love that keyboard I think it's the best midi board on the market

[liudas]

Fantastic, you should be famous and have a music video and a tour.

[Nothingspeshalwaysfresh]

Floyd is out here flexing on us with the Zynthian!! 😂❤

[matszh]

Zynthian really starts to become tempting…Just waiting for the battery version :)

What is this LED array panel thing playing interesting images next to your keyboard?

[scoobysienna]

[GerenM]

That sounds awesome. Looks great, too.

Unrelated -- what's the neat LED cube light thing?

[FSK]

i would love a version with external LCD a cheap 15 inch touch screen is about $150
may be make the unit smaller or add more ccontrolls ..? just some ideas
this iis a amazing project ..

[kehindea]

Wow this is brilliant. Will be following this product's development. Can you record audio using it as well so it acts like an actual DAW?

[jmalmsten]

Well, Color me very much intrigued.I went to their website but I'm not sure I'm looking at the right places. What is the expected price for a full kit?

[danielgil]

Hi Floyd, does the Zynthian V still has the overload pop / errors noises you were hearing when on the older version?

[MrBenMcLean]

What is that little tiny midi controller you got for playing there?
