With Charles Chicky Reeves and Yoad Nevo As we head toward the NAMM show (next week from 24th Jan), Arturia release a bunch of stuff, Moog announce the DFAM and we also look at the interesting Enchancia MIDI Ring, touchscreens in studios, and the generally talk about the upcoming NAMM show.

With Rich Hilton, Gaz Williams and Charles Chicky Reeves - We catch up with Charles - just back from OMD and Howard Jones tours, talk Behringer - UB-Xa, VC340, Roland's new R-07 portable recorder, Ableton artist video featuring Katie Gately - found sound composition, Intel (and other chips) security issues.

We start with new years resolutions, then the Facebook and Universal Music Group content deal and what it might mean, Caitlin's Modular lessons, (apologies for the break in transmission), the Razer Project Valerie laptop, cloud based sample library services - Splice, Loopcloud and Noiiz.

With Yoad Nevo, Rich Hilton, Dave Spiers and Chris McCleod First up happy holidays to you all - thanks for listening/watching - and also thanks to our panelists, who continue to give their time up to join us each week.

With Rich Hilton, Gaz Williams and Mark Tinley - We ask what if anything tempted the panel on Black Friday/Cyber Monday, the Eventide MangledVerb, Erica Synths chat with JMJ, the Soma Laboratory Pipe, why telephone hold music is so bad, and the Poly Expressive MIDI Foot Control.
