At the 2025 NAMM Show, Entropy & Sons was showing their Recursion Studio, described as “a standalone video art platform.”
Recursion Studio interfaces with a wide array of standard A/V equipment, and can work as a generative video synthesizer or you can dig deep to create custom visuals.
While it’s a video synthesizer, it supports LFOs, MIDI & CV control for integrating with live performance setups.
Internally, signals flow through a network of processing units, refered to as modules, which eventually terminate in the HDMI output of the synth. The end result is a stream of HD animation that can be interacted with and controlled in a wide variety of ways.
There are over 300 modules available for use on the device, and more are regularly being added, each performing a unique function and having a unique set of controls and inputs.
Here’s an overview from the Show floor, via Sonic State:
Here’s a playlist of the official demo videos:
