Korg Introduces GADGET-VR Music Production Software

KORG Gatdget gets the VR treatment. Note the video appears to start with an Oculus Quest 2 headset. The Quest 2 can actually host apps itself. A PC is optional. So, no idea if the GADGET-VR will run on the Quest 2 itself, PC or mobile. No additional details at this time aside from the video above and the image below. It's worth noting GADGET-VR isn't the first VR music production software. See the VR label for more.

Synthspace - Virtual Reality Modular Synthesizer

Published on May 7, 2020 Bright Light

"Support this project on Patreon and try this build today in VR or on Desktop! https://www.patreon.com/synthspace

Synthspace is my attempt to capture the physicality of a modular synthesizer in a virtual instrument!"

via the Patreon page:

"Hi, I'm Markus. I'm an XR programmer by day, but I'll always be a musician at heart.

Whenever a new technology arrives, my first thoughts are: how can I use this for making music? So you can imagine, when I first tried Virtual Reality - I knew at an instant that this was going to change the way we make music forever! The fantastic thing about VR is that it frees us from our screens and mice and keyboards. Suddenly we can use our hands again and we have the entire room to play in.

Synthspace is my attempt to capture the physicality of a modular synthesizer, while adding in all sorts of magical bits that are only possible in a virtual world. VR is the exciting part, but I want to create an instrument that is fun and flexible and ready whenever you need it, so I'd love to have it available on as many platforms as possible (VR, Desktop, Mobile). And I'm working towards supporting multiple users working together in the same virtual space.

I've spent countless evenings and weekends on this project, and now I'd love to take it to the next level and work on it full time! If you like the idea and see the potential, please see if you can support me in any way. Every little bit helps and I'd love to bring you along on this journey!"

Superbooth 2018: Coolest Booth? Build Sounds Like LEGO in VR

Published on May 9, 2018 sonicstate

"Edo really knows the VR space - he makes it look so easy when he builds really interesting sound machines from basic 'physics' building blocks in the virtual landscape. It's a powerful concept - you can make sound generating machines in VR which either comply with the normal rules of physics as we know them in the 'real' world... or totally ignore them!

Right now the sound generation is in the box, but soon it will communicate with external sound devices, so you can control your modular in VR - yes!"

VR synths. Se this post for another demo.

"Something different...
First encounter with the Soundscape Samsung Gear VR experience.
The app offers a virtual environment featuring two simple synths and a drum machine.

"For the last couple of weeks, I have been working on the CV1 + Orion integration in Soundscape.
I am pretty much blown away by the new tracking capabilities of the new Leap Motion Orion SDK."
