I, in contrast post about Plinky all the time 😀 and I'll do it again! Here's a Toadstep overview!

I couldn't be less interested in the world cup this year. Somehow I just don't get sports 🤷‍♂️

I've got a new Plinky video up comparing the new Plinky12 with the Plinky+. Fun fact: @mmalex.bsky.social saw a preview of this, and then added a new feature to the P12 based on my commentary. I had to edit the video last minute to make sure its accurate! 💯% worth it 😄 youtu.be/srjmqfzBg3c

I saved the default Plinky wavetable for last when making these videos. It was a fun journey to explore the other ones first, then come back to the original and see how it compares. This is the last one in the video series, but the best one as well ☺️ #synthsky #modularsynth youtu.be/X4uJIQVJRKM

I just got my first royalties for performing my own music, which feels exciting. Its not a huge amount, but it was definitely worth it to register my music and performances. Even if the royalty system is broken, I'm grateful for every cent I earn with my music! #indiemusic #synthsky

Among the amazing things Plink12 can do, it also works as a Norns grid controller (with 256 pads!). Totally OP machine, shameless! @mmalex.bsky.social has worked some true magic here... #plinky #synthsky youtu.be/Aq22U0HI_bI

Please enjoy this ambient jam to send you off into the weekend... 😎 #synthsky #plinky youtube.com/shorts/Dy4A9...

I'm almost done with the wavetable videos, only one more left after this. Enjoy! #plinky #eurorack #synthsky youtu.be/arrG3msBp7Y

A bit of a different video this week - no Plinky! Well, ok I admit, I used Plinky for effects 🤪 Using 🔥 as a modulation source is neat! #synthsky youtu.be/2nk16VW43C8

Happy International #droneday to all who celebrate! I didn't get a chance to drone yet today, but please enjoy this drone tutorial from earlier this year :) youtu.be/YUe8d_Nik6w?...

Just a few jams on the new Plinky12 to keep you going until its finally released! #eurorack #synthsky youtu.be/6NfKmRL_hxc

New Plinky vid! @chiaroben.bsky.social might find this interesting. One of my Insta friends asked me about this, and I was surprised I hadn't covered it. I show what techniques I use to navigate the surface in regards to pitches. #synthsky #eurorack #modularsynth youtu.be/Ak5s3Cnr4HU

Same!

Yes!

I'm a member of @subvert.fm and today is the day the artist pages go live! You can find my music there (name your price) as well as many other fantastic indie artists. Check it out! www.subvert.fm/nathan-plante #eurorack #modularsynth #indiemusic

This week's video is all about Plinky's arp system, the last major system I have yet to cover. I go through all the parameters and also show some fun and interactive patch ideas. Enjoy! #synthsky #plinky #eurorack youtu.be/YmIe6vift24

Yes, you!

My newest video is less tutorial, and much more just jamming with some fun toys. Plinky and Norns pair so we'll together, lots of fun to be had with these two... #synthsky #eurorack #modularsynth youtu.be/aQZ81XCParI

Introducing the Plinky12 Chords, a brand new synth from Making Sound Machines and @mmalex.bsky.social . I had so much fun getting to know this one, take a look! #synthsky youtu.be/hvVSP4qf_M0

Showtime in one hour! I've never had to prepare this much music for one performance. Nearly 3 hours. I actually had to compose MORE music because I didn't even have that much in my repertoire. But now I do!

Alright, while I'm waiting to be able to post the Big Announcement™ , please enjoy a wavetable video! youtu.be/FztPo8gP-1o

Can't believe I managed to pack my whole setup! The suitcase weighs around 100kg. Backpack not shown 😬. Pray for me that there will be no shenanigans with the train...

Looking forward to some Easter weekend reading. Finally got my copy of YUCK by Barret Baumgart. As a native Californian, this speaks to me! #booksky

I don't know how the weather is where you are, but in Berlin its cold and dreary. A perfect evening for some dark and crunchy drones! There's a short jam at the end if you're not interested in the patch building. Enjoy! #synthsky #plinky #eurorack youtu.be/YUe8d_Nik6w

You asked, I answered. Thanks for all the questions, I had fun hearing from everyone! Now I need a plan for 1000 subs if it ever happens... youtu.be/G3UwoAeO-L4

I've got plenty of Plinky videos in the pipeline, but I'm curious about what my viewers want to learn about. Here are a few that are on my radar, or you can suggest one! #synthsky youtube.com/post/Ugkx7v9...

This sounds like my cats when they fight 🤣

Not sure how many #plinky fans I have in my feed, but I just released a video all about managing presets on this wonderful little synth. It's a strangely complicated subject, but I hope this video helps make it easier for Plinky users! #eurorack #synthsky #modularsynth youtu.be/9vXsFFTkcqw

....no not that kind of trill! I had a lot of fun with this one. Hope the other #plinky folks out there find it useful! #eurorack #modularsynth #synthsky #startrek youtu.be/eGPRaDbspaE

Hey folks! I'm collecting your questions for an AMA video to celebrate reaching 500 subscribers. Post any burning questions you might have (about me, Plinky, Synths...anything) in a comment below. Thanks for your support!! #synthsky #plinky #modularsynth youtu.be/InZkpztpx40

Trans rights are human rights. ICE should be abolished. The president is a sex offender and formalizing turning the US into a fascist state. Ukraine and Palestine both deserve our support and political will. The climate crisis and biodiversity crises are real. Musk = asshole. Did I forget anything?

It was such a pleasure being interviewed by @lillyschwartz.bsky.social ! She did the cover art for both my albums and also has a wonderful YT channel about synths and photography. We chat about synths, AI and science fiction. Enjoy! #synthsky #eurorack youtu.be/uspzdDIudZk

There is so much pseudoscience and woo in the world of audio gear, this doesn't surprise me at all. gizmodo.com/audiophiles-...

I've got a new Plinky tutorial up! In this one I build an easy ambient patch (drenched in reverb) and talk a bit about how to creatively tweak some of Plinky's parameters. You can patch along with me or just skip to the jam at the end 🤓 #synthsky #eurorack #modularsynth youtu.be/ch53eStkBe4

Art and music have historically survived because of subsidies, so I think this is a great move!

Please enjoy this dark drone to soothe your soul in these horrifying times. youtu.be/7T2fajYqqzg #synthsky #eurorack ##darkambient

Really enjoyed exploring Plinky's sampler in my latest tutorial. The ambient jam at the end was fun too! #synthsky #eurorack youtube.com/shorts/bYio8...

Pretty much sums it up... #eurorack #modular #synthsky #politics youtube.com/shorts/klyhS...

Wow, as if Spotify couldn't get even shittier.... So glad I left and removed my music. #synthsky #deletespotify www.youtube.com/watch?v=wdXE...

In this video I do a detailed run down of the differences between the original Plinky and the new Plinky+. If you're sick of my Plinky videos already then go ahead and unfollow now 🤣 more are coming! #synthsky #eurorack #plinky youtu.be/l9Hc8pxv-78

Great article on making a distinction between "AI" and generative. I use plenty of generative techniques in my music but no AI, it's important to make the difference clear! Kind of frustrating that the AI movement has taken control of that word. abductedandroid.vuilniszak.be/insights/gen...

I made another #plinky video! Can you tell I love this synth? 🤣 This one is inspired by a piece from Arvo Pärt. I recorded out in the forest next to an Grant cheese set. Enjoy! #eurorack #synthsky youtu.be/RWKpyxDdguQ

True Story! #deleteSpotify #indiemusic #synthsky

Streaming release today...but NOT on Spotify! Here are 4 reasons why I removed my music and deleted my profile. The best way to support your favorite artists is to buy their music directly and attend their live performances. Support human-made music! #deletespotify #synthsky #experimentalmusic

Super stoked about this review from @terminal313.bsky.social ! "Conceived with care and craftmanship, Electric Forest is the ideal way for detaching oneself from everyday fuss." Thank you Janno 😊 #synthsky #experimentalmusic terminal313.net/2025/09/nath...

A more personal view on releasing music publicly. I'm sure I'm not the only independent artist who struggles with imposter syndrome. Little positive comments, even from strangers, can make such a big difference! #synthsky #impostersyndrome #modularsynth

Not sure how many Plinky fans there are among you all, but the extra large Plinky Plus is out! Already having lots of fun with it and it was great putting together this build video! #synthsky #diy #eurorack youtu.be/pTlcdwfW1fU?...

This week's Other People's Music features contributions from @wordsshiftminds.bsky.social (a deep, varied and well produced genre-crossed electronic album) & @electricbirds.bsky.social (field-recording enhanced ambient) among its ample charms. Listen & boost! www.etherdiver.com/2025/08/22/o...

Super happy to be featured in this interview by Abducted Android! I talk a lot about my creative process, influences and challenges. An easy read for a sunday morning 🤓 #synthsky #eurorack #modular #experimentalmusic abductedandroid.vuilniszak.be/interviews/i...
