Akai LPK25 review - The DSP Project

YouTube via TheDSPproject — June 10, 2010 — "The LPK25 or "Laptop Performance Keyboard" is a very portable 25 key USB midi keyboard with built in arpeggiator. Even though the keys arnt full sized I still found it very usable for working out quick melodies and bass lines. Here I go into detail with the arp option to show you it actually gives you quite a few options and even better it can sync to you DAW's midi clock.

What say you?

Earthquaker Devices Hummingbird v1

via this Noisebug auction

"The Hummingbird is, at heart, a hard and choppy tremolo. What comes out is more akin to vintage synth style oscillations. It's core is based on the old Vox Repeat Percussion with several updates to reduce noise, enhance the "chop" and add more control. It can create ring mod-like octaves, slow pulses, ping pong delay-like stutters, light blipping through machine gun stutter tremolo and many more wacky sounds!"
