This video made us laugh way more than expected. Experience Knobcon in all its self-proclaimed synth nerd glory with 5 second soundbites from ~70 different manufacturers, performers, and one asleep person.
Knobcon was a blast and there are certain people who do excellent work capturing the event atmosphere, all the hardware, and the performances. Props to Jeremy for knocking out this nice ~20 minute recap while suffering from the old C to-the-Vid and covering a serious amount of module news.
In celebration of the upcoming Patch-On // REVERB patch-challenge video we talk about the show, the scene, and the mind behind one of the most important creative outlets in our global modular community.
Sample management isn't fun. Especially, sample management on complex Eurorack modules with minimal screen real estate. Chris Roberts felt that pain and coded an open source, cross-platform app to handle samples and preset files on the Rossum Electro-Music Assimil8or. Let's get to know A8Manager v2.0 and talk to Chris about the software!
There are synth events and then there are Synth Events. If you're in the UK, you get the chance to enjoy the latter this weekend at Machina Bristronica 2023: a one-day festival brimming with activities. You can experience manufacturer booths, live sets, expert discussions, DIY workshops, educational sessions, and even a dedicated stage for DivKid interviews.
