We start with a short tribute to Sister Sledge vocalist Joni Sledge who sadly passed away recently aged 60. Then we talk of the new reduced cost, A9 processor equipped iPad, then we focus on the new Roland Cloud service, Analog Strings from OUTPUT, Steinberg release VST SDK on Linux, a discussion on Technostalgia and future classic synths, with a short interlude into the Pink Trombone mouth emulator.
