Superbooth Home Edition

I should have been on a flight today to Berlin, to attend my number 1 highlight of the year: Superbooth. Sadly Superbooth couldn't happen this year due to the virus, but in its place is "Superbooth Home Edition" and Soulsby Synths have done a video for it!

In the words of the organisers: "To not let the start of the real Superbooth pass out, there is a virtual show happen tomorrow: The Superbooth20 Home Edition. Starting at 14:00 o´clock / 2 PM (MESZ/CEST/CEDT) simply on our website superbooth.com."

Edit: The video is now available here, in Part 3, near the bottom.

Couple of Updates

New Oscidrum banks

There are 5 new Oscidrum banks on the downloads page. 4 vintage drum kits and 1 set of Moog Mother-32 sounds courtesy of Steve Munslow.

Online chat with Richard Nicol

I had an informal online chat with Richard Nicol of Pittsburgh Modular yesterday. We chatted about getting into synths, development of the Atmegatron and progress of the ATX synths. I also demo a couple of the new Oscidrum banks.

ATX progress

I discuss quite a bit of this in the video above.

A lot of parts for the Atmegatron II have now arrived. There's still some software to write and parts to order, but it's getting close! There are plans for a virtual Superbooth, now that the real one can't take place. I will be doing an update video for this, so stay tuned for details.
