Soundplane Controller

yxou do know, that I am a big fan of Aalto, the Software synth – this controller is not new to those, who have been following my posts on Madrona. A different approach to the Haken Audio thing or the Linnstrument – and other Controllers that simply try to add more pitch control or at least more or different touch/control in general.. they have a new software out – still in search for no-keyboard-keyboard? get your ass on the Madrona site..

Drum Machine Legends for iOs

Drum Machine Legends for iOs is a real time pad recoring drum machines that supports and shape shifts from Linn Drum to Emu SP1200, TR 808, Oberheim DX, MPC 60 or TR 707 – it features 8 bars lengths .. check this: the skins look like this so it is not a replica of the original but a simple pad layout that correspond to the originals design. thats why the Linn Drum looks like this you can add all drum machines to one single pattern, so you are not limited to one…

Madrona Labs Soundplane Controller

Madrona Labs Soundplane Demos at Decibel 2011 – YouTube. since Mr.Linn presented his Linnstrument and somewhere around NOW there’s a hand full of new controllers, that try to re-arrange the way to play melodies and scales – from the Linnstrument, to Buchla Thunder to Eigenharp and the Xylosynth, here’s the Madrona Labs which reminds a bit of an alternate Haken Continuum  – listen and watch. lots of fun, though. this one has sensor fields that are also pressure sensitive but not continously – nevertheless is seems to have position sensors per…

Dave Smith Instruments – Tempest new introduction video

Dave Smith Instruments – Tempest looks like still unreleased project for a time, but there is progress which is like this footage – which is almost like „they’re new release“?.. and one of the comments are correct- he sounds like Bob Ross. all new video btw. – and well explained.. looks like the design did not change much (darker?).. it DOES has chase light kind of TR-Style Programming, dynamic Pads and all those MPC-Style „16 Velocities“, Tunings etc. aboard, so this is basically a good thing to have – a drum…
