"Patched!" is a modular synthesizer podcast hosted by Tom Davis that captures the raw, improvisational process of real-time patching. Each episode is a live sonic exploration where Tom experiments with specific modules, techniques, or emulations—ranging from recreating classic effects units to deep-diving into niche synth modules like the Elta Music Solar 42f, or crafting abrasive, noise-driven analog patches. The show blends educational insight with experimental artistry, offering listeners an unscripted, behind-the-scenes look at sound design and patch-building logic. Its tone is relaxed yet technically engaged, appealing to electronic music producers, modular synth enthusiasts, and sound designers who enjoy watching creative problem-solving unfold in real time. Recurring themes include gear reviews, emulation challenges, noise and ambient textures, and the tactile satisfaction of hands-on synthesis. Ideal for listeners interested in experimental music production, DIY audio culture, and the ever-growing modular synth community, this podcast stands out for its unpolished authenticity and immersive, process-focused format rather than polished music commentary.
