Instant Anger…
Eventide has finally released a native version of the Anthology suite of plugins. About half of them have been native for a while, but it's nice to have the whole set. They might seem a bit quirky to people that didn't…

Twitching...
This article on Engadget caught my eye this morning. The tl;dr version: Deadmau5 is streaming his studio work (and gaming, I guess) on Twitch. Now, everyone reading this is no doubt familiar with my love of process, and…

Stereo Effecting...
Yeah, long time no post. I know. I'm a terrible person. Email me if you need my lawyer's address. Extra super-duper busy around here this summer, as we prep for our fall releases. We have several hardware products…

The Origin Of The Species...
Steve Hamann asked an interesting pair of questions on Twitter this morning: "What is the origin of the floating hands and electronic gear music video?" And he followed that up with this: "For a lot of people it seems…

Robotron...
Just for fun, we did a run of shirts with the marquee art from a Robotron coin-op arcade machine reformated for our nefarious purposes. This is a strictly limited item, and when they're gone, they're gone. US$24.00…

10 Answers, Riparian Edition...
Better late than never, right? My optimism about doing this at NAMM was ill-advised, and then when I got home from NAMM, events conspired to keep me from having time. Today, I finally had the opportunity. So, blatantly…
