The music world is overloaded with people who talk about music – how it works, what has happened, what is happening. Few people can really delve articulately into questions of why. Susan Rogers is one of those few. Her talk at Ableton Loop this fall was, in all three years...
At the tail end of China’s Cultural Revolution, one inventor secretly created a futuristic take on traditional instruments – and it easily still inspires today. I don’t know much about this instrument, but given CDM’s readership, I expect our collective knowledge should say...
Neova is a MIDI ring controller that lets musicians control any musical effect with natural hand gestures. The ring comes with a hub that connects via USB to the computer or via MIDI with instruments that supports it. Neova synchronizes to any DAW and compatible with any...

Carl Mikael's Cabinet of Curiosities is one of my favorite YouTube channels; his videos often get me thinking, and this one from last week was no exception. One thing I have always found intensely irritating in my time in this business is religious zealots, who use their...
There’s a big push among software makers to deliver integrated solutions – and that’s great. But if you’re a big user of both, say, MASCHINE MK3 and Ableton Live, here’s some good news. NI made available two software updates yesterday, for their Maschine groove workstation so...
This update makes the AKAI MPC recording system available to anyone that uses any MIDI controllers such as those from M-Audio, Native Instruments, Alesis, Novation, and more...

A month or so ago, I got turned on to the concept of Dante, which is an audio-over-Ethernet protocol used primarily by big production houses and live sound reinforcement. (I imagine it was invented by someone that had to run a 48-channel snake from the stage to the...
The growing power of gaming architectures for visuals has a side benefit: it can produce elaborate visuals without touching the CPU, which is busy on musicians’ machines dealing with sound. But how do you go about exploring some of that power? The code language spoken...
Vulse is an interesting idea for an app, in fact a concept that I don’t think has been done elsewhere, and so far it’s getting some pretty good updates with new features updates and more. In version 1.5 the app has received a massive update with a new effects, control modes...
Chris Hein - Ensemble Strings is an incredibly detailed, flexible and musical string-ensemble-library. A special characteristic of this library is the fact that the ensemble-sounds have not been recorded in a group. Instead, the carefully selected and matched instruments...

Serendipitous collaboration can be magical. Combine an eccentric high-tech guitar company from Switzerland with some high-powered nerds from the USA, and you get some spectacular ways of adding sub octaves and picking apart and modulating sounds. From Memphis to Messe: on a...
Uli Behringer is apparently just getting started trolling the industry, promising US$49-99 Eurorack. But so far, that announcement involves renderings of Roland gear and a plea for user forums to tell them what to do. That’s right: even as people are buzzing about Behringer,...
With some 128 voices, the Valkyrie packs dense sound and effects that never let up. The all new UK-built synth was available to try in prototype form at Musikmesse – and it’s seriously impressive. When I say “play with your forearm,” I’m not kidding. I got my hands on the...
Moog’s Minimoog Model D 1.1 brings a big bunch of new features to this excellent synth app. Here’s all that’s new: Added Velocity and Aftertouch modulation options to Settings menu. Added ModWheel range control to settings. Added feature that always stores CC Maps in presets...

Propellerhead has announced that Reason Users SHOULD NOT UPGRADE to MacOS High Sierra 10.13.4 due to a negative impact on the application's performance...
Native Instruments recently released the latest KONTAKT instrument in the SESSION GUITARIST series. Created in association with award-winning sample instrument team Drumasonic, ELECTRIC SUNBURST provides producers and composers with a highly playable, contemporary electric...
Back in December Akai / Retronyms brought us the iMPC Pro 2. This was a big step from the previous app (iMPC Pro). The 2 app is really well on the way to being a full DAW, as it can handle audio tracks, audio units and lots more. In this update they’ve brought us new...
Roland hasn’t made any announcement about new modular – but it seems a handful of SYSTEM-500 analog modules have just made an appearance in the wild, rounding out an existing range. We’ve got some “spy” shots. Yes, it seems unannounced Eurorack products from the Japanese...
iVCS3 is a truly amazing recreation of the 1969 classic from Peter Zinovieff’s EMS company. It is one of a great collection of unusual apps for more experimental uses and has had a steady stream of updates to make it more useful to those of us who would like to experiment...
As if you hadn’t had enough of the retro 808 drum machine craze, Puma are creating a pair of runners in collaboration with Roland. And this time, you can actually buy them. So, who needs some new kicks? I got a chance to take a look at the new Roland TR-808-inspired Puma...
