  1. Doh.

    Well, as it happens, I'm not going to NAMM. We got about 200 miles from home, and ran in to Issues with the Highway. Apparently, some people feel that a light dusting of snow is a good reason to close I-5. After sitting…

  2. Gettin' Ready For NAMM...

    The Wife and I are leaving for NAMM tomorrow. We're going to San Francisco for a day, then L.A., then back to San Francisco for the weekend, as our 12th anniversary sort of coincides with this whole shebang, and like…

  3. New Moogerfooger announced...

    Yay. A new Moogerfooger to add to my collection! This is the FreqBox, which looks pretty slick. There's an internal VCO, which has FM modulation via the input signal. I'm sold. Just tell me when to enter my credit card…

  4. Accessorize...

    So I've been using these whack-ass HOSA MIDI cables for years and years. There are a couple reasons for this, and they are as follows: (a) on tour most of your gear attrition comes in the form of loss of accessories…

  5. Oh, please, no...

    Apparently, the Rhodes remake will actually be at NAMM this year, only like 5 years after that dude bought the name and started threatening to make one. There is actually a web site up and everything, and since it's on…

  6. Replicant Progress Update...

    Okay, everything is pretty much done and tested and working. We're putting the finishing touches on the manual today, and Elle is adding the reg code mechanism to the AD store. So you can expect to be able to purchase…

  7. Happy New Year...

    Here's my year-end round-up, in the event my opinions on such things have any creedence: BEST NEW PRODUCT: Moog Lil' Phatty. If nothing else, this product is the best of 2006 simply because it put the final nail in the…

  8. Mobile Fun...

    Elle made me this simplified blog entry page so I could do live blogging from my phone. I'm just testing it out.

  9. Blues Lyrics...

    Are there any blues-format lyrics that haven't been already written like 71,255 times? I've got this song that has been kicking my ass for like 6 months. It's fully produced and done, but it doesn't have any vocals…

  10. Total Kaoss...

    It was requested that I provide a review of the Korg Kaoss Pad 3 I just received. Since there are about 300 proper reviews on the Interwebs that go in to some detail about the various aspects of the machine, I'll limit…

  11. Question...

    What's a cheap-ass A/D - D/A converter with AES besides the M-Audio Flying Cow? Never mind my aversion to all things Digi, the Flying Cow has been discontinued. I could probably find one somewhere, but I'd rather just…

  12. Industry Kudos, Take Two...

    The issue with the announcements just showed up in the mail, so I guess we don't have to keep mum any more. We're pleased to announce that Discord 2 won a 2007 Editor's Choice award from Electronic Musician Magazine…

  13. Replicant Progress Update...

    Okay, Elle has made the Replicant page on the AD site live, so you can have a gander at the proper screenshot and feature list and such. I whipped out some quick demos, but I will probably replace these in the near…
