  • 146: Looking to NAMM 2025 / Roland Galaxias Super Instrument / Native Instruments teams up with AKAI

    NAMM 2025 is HERE and with it all the GAS temptations, tribulations and abstentions. Sunwarper is there picking around and looking whats up. Kh3rtis and Eonlake are here with the bits that caught their eyes ahead of the grand opening. Roland has announced their 'Super Instrument' and Native Instruments allies themselves with AKAI. Lots to talk about and mull over - even the degree to which we need to temper ourselves and invest our time into the gear we have already.

  • 141: Do we need AI in our Delays? // Behringer Clones Mutable Instruments with New Swords

    AI continues its spread into every facet of our live, including that of music production. Izotope have just released a new delay plugin that supposedly uses AI to remove muddiness. Did we ask for it? No, Did they give it to us? Yes. Is there a point to it? Lets find out.

    Our favourite morally questionable company has released 'swords' a mutable instruments clone modular device. We're checking it out.
    In the final Round Robin of the year, we are expressing our gratitude for our community and the line of work we do. all in the festive spirit.

    Sonic Bending Extraordinaire Frequency Control Centre joins us for this week's musings as we're checking out the specs of the new Polyend synth and pondering on whether it's up to the mark when it comes to synthesis.

  • 139: FREE Dawsome Zyklop is Pretty Awesome // Teenage Engineering OP-XY... Is It Worth The Price?!

    Teenage Engineering recently came out with their new lil' Black Box - The OP-XY. Resident TE expert Eonlake returns so this is as good a time as any to peek at the specs and see whether we're vibing with it's eye watering $2300 price tag...

    We also found another FREE plugin for you. This time from DAWSOME and the Zyklop synth. It's a mystical box full of non traditional sound design techniques. We're demoing it on the show and look at how it can be used in your arrangements.

  • 138 | Are we witnessing the slow demise of Spotify? | Intentionally Broken: Full Bucket’s ‘Broken Mini'

    Our favourite music exploitation platform come out with another milestone! In the same year that they cut Artists' royalties, they announce a profit for the first time ever. Great news for the international corporation, though the people are less than joyous. We break it down.

    We're also looking at a VST that is broken... on purpose. What's the point of it we hear you cry? Well, stick around to find out.
