“But this collection goes up to 11!”
Arturia has delivered a new path in their eleventh virtual instrument collection. If they cannot win the past, they will augment the future.
Being Easter it’s time for show bags – and here’s a fine bag full of small VST instruments from KORG. The KORG Gadget runs on iOS and VR – but you can also get the 40+ instruments as VSTs. Tiny they may be, but full featured in their creativity.

Getting ready for a hardware sale. Documenting things before selling them. Many pages on this site being rewritten, updated and improved.

The Montage M: Don’t be shy. Tell it like it is. Having synthesisers is like having that rocket ship that you really wanted to pilot when you were a kid. Your own Death Star pew pew.
Sistema2 is an “AI” synthesiser. Let’s not waste words – politely – it’s not very good.
The Dialects of FM – we’ve come a long way from the DX7 to the Montage! This nearly inscrutable way of making noises has enjoyed a long illustrious career for something that no one could figure out. So what is FM-X? And how does it work?
About the ManCave, a necessary and good thing.
