Daily Roundup 16 Dec 2025: WAEVE82, Discovery Pro 8.11, Korg Wavestate DX7 Collection, Chromatic Echoes, Low Poly Synth

Pands Daily Roundup

WAEVE82

The WAEVE82 is not only a polyphonic wavetable oscillator, but actually a complete 8-voice polysynth! It combines the unmistakable charm of early digital wavetable instruments with a modern, performance-oriented workflow and a clear, page-based interface that invites exploration.

Its conceptual DNA is inspired by the PPG Wave 2 synthesizers of the 1980s — iconic instruments known for glassy timbres, animated spectra, and futuristic character.

Yet, the WAEVE82 is far from being a clone.

It draws inspiration from that lineage but follows its own path, with a unique audio engine, expanded modulation options, modern randomization tools, and a streamlined interface tailored for the AE modular format.

At its core, WAEVE82 provides:

  • Two independent wavetable oscillators, with 64 internal wavetables plus support for external tables loaded from micro-SD card.
  • Three envelopes and four LFOs, each with defined primary and secondary roles; LFOs can be free-running or tempo-synced
  • An extensive modulation matrix, enabling both traditional and experimental routing.
  • Dual operating modes:
    • Edit Mode for deep sound design
    • Perform Mode for live playability with direct access to eight favorites
  • A powerful Randomize & Mutate system that generates entirely new sounds or gently transforms sounds while keeping them musical; always with restorable history. This absolutely hot; endless inspiration, endless fun!
  • Save/load presets from micro-SD card
  • Full IMDI/MIDI and CV/Gate integration, including an eight-voice MIDI engine and flexible chord generation from CV,, plus additional CV/Gate inputs for additional control. IMDI and CV control can run parallel.

Available January 2026

Korg Wavestate DX7 Collection

“Brand-new DX7 Collection for the Korg Wavestate — a sound pack built from meticulously multi-sampled patches taken directly from my Yamaha TX7, the rack-mount sibling of the classic DX7.

This pack brings the unmistakable FM character of the DX7 into the Wavestate world, combining authentic multi-samples, velocity switching, polyphonic aftertouch, and the Wavestate’s powerful motion-sequencing engine to create something both nostalgic and completely new.

Whether you’re using Wavestate hardware (MK1, MK2, SE, Rack) or Wavestate Native, this collection integrates seamlessly and unlocks a rich palette of expressive FM tones.”

Chromatic Echoes – Volume 01

Electronic Producer mxguinness delivers ‘Chromatic Echoes – Volume 01’, a bold two-track EP expanding the catalog of his label, Northscape; available now exclusively on Beatport, with a full release on all digital streaming platforms on December 24th. Built on a foundation of hard-hitting grooves, vivid synth lines, and genre-blending energy, the release captures the pulse of modern Electronic music with precision and intensity.

After years spent touring and performing across a wide range of artists, scenes, and cities, mxguinness brings that experience into the studio with a sharpened perspective. His music blends high-impact, hard-driving production with melodic detail, reflecting both his technical growth and his connection to the Dance music landscape.

Chromatic Echoes

Influenced early on by House, Electro House, Midtempo, and Trance, he continues to expand on those foundations, shaping a sound that feels true to his roots while pushing toward new creative territory. Each release offers a clear snapshot of his evolving identity; an intersection of the diverse inspirations, experiences, and ideas that define his artistic path.

‘Chromatic Echoes – Volume 01’ fuses the raw, hard-driving intensity of Electro House with the soaring, atmospheric power of Trance, blending their defining characteristics into a sound that feels both fresh and unmistakably distinct. Across its two tracks, “acid burn” and “1015 half,” the EP delivers punchy, tightly sculpted basslines that collide with luminous melodic layers and evolving synth textures. The result is a dynamic contrast that thrives equally well on a packed dancefloor as it does in a high-energy, immersive listening session.

The EP reflects mxguinness’ continued interest to crafting soundscapes that are both immersive and impactful, pushing his signature style forward while expanding the sonic identity of Northscape. ‘Chromatic Echoes – Volume 01’ builds on the momentum of mxguinness’ evolving release series, setting the stage for a dynamic sequence of future projects while showcasing the artist’s signature style.

Out now exclusively on Beatport and available to stream on all streaming platforms on December 24th, ‘Chromatic Echoes – Volume 01’ continues to sediment mxguinness’s journey, so listen today and stay connected by following him across social media for the latest updates.

Low Poly Synth

Low Poly Synth is a generator of melodic atmospheric sounds with billions of unique timbres (standalone app for all systems and AUv3 plugin for iOS)

The app is built on modified synthesis algorithms from Fractal Bits, Relic Waves, and Relic Flow, with the addition of pure tone generation code.

The sound space is divided into 4294967296 presets, each corresponding to a set of 8 sample textures. The volume of an individual sample can be adjusted in the top panel or via MIDI. The bottom panel is a classic musical keyboard that sets the note for the sounds in the set. Each note triggers all 8 samples at once – together they form a complex harmonic pattern that almost never repeats over time due to the different lengths of the looped fragments.

Features:

  • search for new sounds with three buttons: next random set, edit code, previous set; each set of 8 sounds corresponds to a code of 8 characters (you can save/copy/paste it as plain text);
  • three types of keyboards for live performing: on-screen, PC keyboard, MIDI input; for the on-screen keyboard, you can set the number of displayed octaves and scale;
  • 20+ parameters can be controlled via MIDI or directly through the app interface: Settings / MIDI Mapping;
  • real-time audio recording to WAV (32-bit);
  • export to: WAV (one file or a set), SunVox (samples + effects in one file), text clipboard;
  • the LCK button freezes individual samples – they will not change during the search for new sets;
  • Wi-Fi export/import;
  • iOS: Audio Unit Extension (AUv3).
