Clavia NordDrum analog 4 channel/instrument synth with trigger inputs – drum module

moogulator, , 3 Comments

update – and here it is – the Drum Synth „Nord Drums“, it’s not a sampler. it’s an analog modelling drum kit synth, a 4 channel „analog style“ drum module with trigger inputs, that’s what it is – have a look at the video reminds of the drum module in the G2 (still hope for a sampling G3 modular synth)- possibly it’s sort of turing the Nord Lead 2’s real cool drum mode into a drum synth with the synth simplified – let’s check how this will be edited and how…

iOS: iConnectivity (multiport) audio iConnectMUSE digital audio mixer

moogulator, , , ,

this magic little thing gives you more than 2 audio outputs. I don’t see more than 2 ins and outs here, but well – there is USB Host in there.but they say featuring six stereo in / outs, headphone out, two USB ports, a „hub-able“ USB host, Ethernet / network sharing and MIDI pass-thru. so if that’s true and it’s supportet by iOs Core Audio this is WOW! iConnectivity outs iConnectMUSE digital audio mixer for iOSers (video) — Engadget. a mixer or real multiport? hmm..

Über das alles, was wir gerade tun… (Software, Preise, Piraterie und mehr)

moogulator, ,

Also ich weiss es nicht, es ist schon sehr leicht, alles was mit Geld zu tun hat abzulehnen, dennoch machen wir alle irgendwas und sind ziemlich geknickt, wenn einer nicht zahlt, sei es für die eigene Musik, Gage oder so, also – was für einen selbst gilt, gilt das auch für andere? Wie kriegen wir das hin? So wie jetzt? Mit teils hochpreisigen Sachen? Oder gibt es Berechtigungen für etwas? Oder alles frei? Ganz anderes? Klar ist nur – was ändern muss sich schon, aber was genau? Ich sag’s mal…

New DAW: Bitwig Studio – the Ableton Killer?

moogulator, , 3 Comments

Bitwig  is a bit like ableton – that means – the synths and plugs are below the audio track and arrange window, it has most of the things known from ableton – but it has a modular „environment“ which is more like max or the logic environment. It’s ex Ableton Codes in here, right? See the comments (Kommentare) for some add. thoughts!! looks like this – and supports 2-monitors..: they are in beta now, you can register to check it out.. here is a comment from The Blog of Julien Bayle…
