Roto-Control (Review): A Logic Pro Controller I Actually Want to Use

video upload by Why Logic Pro Rules

"I was skeptical when ‪@melbourneinstruments‬ sent me Roto-Control for Logic Pro. I've owned plenty of MIDI controllers that ended up collecting dust. But after using this for the past month, I actually reach for it.

What makes it different? Eight fully motorized control knobs with haptic feedback that adapt to whatever you're focused on in Logic Pro. You don't just see parameters change on screen - you FEEL them. End stops on a filter cutoff, notches on discrete values, center indents for faders, pans, and more.

In this review, I walk through the Logic Pro integration, the haptic feedback system, and what it's actually like to use day-to-day. I also cover the real limitations - manual plugin mapping and limited storage - that you need to know before buying."

Press release follows:

Melbourne Instruments announces advanced Logic Pro integration for ROTO-CONTROL motorised software and hardware MIDI controller

MELBOURNE, VIC, AUSTRALIA: Melbourne Instruments is proud to announce availability of advanced Logic Pro integration for its ROTO-CONTROL motorised software and hardware MIDI controller — creatively expanding upon its successful integration with Ableton Live and Bitwig Studio, demand for integration with Apple’s popular professional DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) for Mac having been strong since said controller launched to widespread critical acclaim a year ago — as of January 15, 2026…

ROTO-CONTROL readily packs eight touch-sensitive motorised knobs — brushless drone motors with Melbourne Instruments’ patented ultra-high-resolution contactless optical sensors offering a lifetime rating in excess of 50 million cycles that equates to 500 times more than conventional pots, precisely — alongside nine high-resolution IPS (In-Plane Switching) LCDs (Liquid Crystal Displays) and 16 backlit RGB (Red, Green, Blue) LED (Light-Emitting Diode) buttons into its classy, compact — 341mm/13.4” (W) x 112mm/4.4” (D) x 44mm/1.7” (H) — form factor to duly deliver haptic feedback and instant parameter recall, communicating with the outside world via MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) over USB (Universal Serial Bus) and 5-pin MIDI DIN (Deutsches Institut für Normung) IN/OUT/THRU connections. Constructed out of ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) and metal, it robustly weighs in at only 715g/1.58lb, making it the perfect portable production partner for encouraging artists to use sound and music in new and exciting ways — wherever their journey might end up taking them, both creatively and geographically. Get this, though: ROTO-CONTROL now introduces a fully-tactile, motorised workflow to Logic Pro, delivering fast, hands-on control of tracks, plug-ins, Smart Controls, and automation — all thanks to a new firmware update.

MIX mode mirrors Logic Pro’s session track names, colours, and order automatically, while providing high-resolution control of volume, pan, sends, and automation alongside instant access to track selection, paging, mute/solo/arm switching, and dedicated TRACK FOCUS.

Fast, powerful plug-in control comes courtesy of PLUGIN mode, allowing users to browse and select Logic Pro instrument and effect plug-ins instantly from ROTO-CONTROL using simple touch-and-learn mapping for any parameter, with up to eight pages of controls per plug-in stored directly on the device ready for any projects, plus bypass/select controls — all mappings being saved on ROTO-CONTROL and usable across all Logic Pro projects on any computer.

Cutting-edge control continues with Logic Pro’s Smart Controls being automatically mapped to ROTO-CONTROL, controlling up to 16 Smart Control parameters instantly — perfect for working with instruments, macros, and MIDI effects, available in both PLUGIN mode and the dedicated SMART mode itself.

And as if all that was not enough to be getting on with, ROTO-CONTROL can be used to customise labels, colours, haptics, and steps for each control, while integrated transport — play, stop, record, cycle, auto-punch, and playhead — controls are all accessible from any mode.

It is fair to say, then, that Logic Pro users owe it to themselves — and, ultimately, their sound and music — to consider making some space in their creative and physical world for ROTO-CONTROL. After all, motorised and morphing controls, instant recall, and intuitive hardware are only the beginning of their journeying.

ROTO-CONTROL is available to buy at its new North American price of $399.00 USD (excluding tax) in the USA and Canada, while its RRP (Recommended Retail Price) in Australia of $619.00 AU (including GST) and MSRP (Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price) in the EU of €372.35 EUR (excluding VAT), MSRP in Japan/Asia of $469.00 USD, and MSRP in the UK of £389.00 GBP remains unchanged — all via Melbourne Instruments’ growing global network of dealers here: https://www.melbourneinstruments.com/dealers [check with dealers on the right here on MATRIXSYNTH]

Small Town Boy/Bronski Beat (Circuit Tracks version)

video upload by Guinan

"Feeling a bit of 80’s nostalgia ('Stranger Things' anyone?) I thought the time had finally come to try and give this classic electro-pop anthem the Circuit Tracks treatment. Released in 1984 (40+ years!) it’s too easy to forget how ground-breaking the song (and it’s subject) was in the political climate of the Eighties.

The song itself is a simple but almost perfect pop song. It was programmed on an MC-202 Microcomposer and is reputed to have started life as an electronic disco version of the Sex Pistol’s 'Pretty Vacant'!

Yamaha DX7 is used heavily on the track (notably the presets ‘Harp1’ and ‘Bass1’), and additional Sequential Pro-One, Memorymoog and Linn drums. I managed to simplify the arrangement to program everything and the vocals into a single Novation Circuit Tracks. Everything you hear is being played and recorded live from the Tracks.

I'm pleased at how close to the spirit of the original I managed to get this time. I hope you enjoy the track and it brings back some memories for you too."

"More details for synth nerds
BPM 135
I don’t own a DX7 (sadly!) but the closest thing I have is emulation. The repeated ‘Harp1’ DX7 line (and the ‘Marimba’ break) was sequenced on the Tracks MIDI 1 and sampled as 4-bar loops from the internal MicroDEXED emulator in an M-Vave SMK-37 Pro keyboard. Each sample was then triggered (like a drum sound) at the required point in the song using the Drum 3 track.

G-Sonique Introduces REAL Analog Modular synths FX1 VST /AU Plug-in Instrument

video upload by G-Sonique

Press release follows:

G-Sonique Analog Modular FX – VST / AU plug-in instrument.

Analog modular synthesizers are relatively expensive, take up quite a lot of space and creating sounds is a very lengthy process (plus it is complex and not every producer can master it).

However, their sound is unique. Compared to digital synthesizers, their sound is much more organic, expressive and punchy in the mix, even though it is often mono (unless you use some stereo parts and effect modules), it sounds 3D. Simply put, their sound is not static and cold like digital synthesizers, but constantly evolving/alive/warm - thanks to the fact that electronic components behave non-linearly and under the influence of various factors (such as heat, current) their sound modulates itself every millisecond. With digital you will probably never create such lively, organic and constantly changing sounds - such sharp, cutting filters and resonances, textures, metallic analog sounds or twisted twisted effects. The sound of modular analog synthesizers will give your songs a completely different dimension, analog color, warmth and character of something real/organic. It’s the essential tool for professional sound design and adding that sought-after vintage character to your mix.

Modular synthesizers excel mainly in the field of FX, soundscapes and experimental sounds. Producers often use them for unique tension builders and complex cinematic sound effects.

So if you don't have the space and possibilities and especially the time to spend long hours programming a single sound, don't despair. We have prepared for you a multi-octave VST / AU plug-in instrument full of banks created using analog modular synthesizers. This is your shortcut to authentic analogue synthesis, instantly available as high-quality modular samples / multi-octave multi-layer banks.

The combination of digital and modular analog is very interesting and gives tracks a completely new dimension, sound and atmosphere. Get the best of both worlds: digital workflow convenience with true analogue character.

Analog Modular FX1 is perfect for many genres from different branches of psytrance such as: darkpsy / forest psytrance, also full-on psytrance, experimental zenon style progressive psytrance, night psytrance, modern goatrance, but also hitech / hightech, psycore. However, these FX sounds can also be used in other genres, for example modern techno, which is mixing more and more with other elements. Also suitable for rave music, bolder tech house, breakbeat. Also great for experimental genres, glitch, dark ambient. Modular sounds and FX are perfect for futuristic cinematic music / video game music, thriller and horror music. The sounds can also be pre-effected, making them suitable for other genres, such as dark drum and bass, neurofunk intros/stoptimes/outros, hardcore techno, gabber, industrial techno, EBM. Use them as powerful risers, drops, and complex transitions.

Includes: Analog monster modular voices, Modular laboratory experimental bubbling experiments, Alien analog FX, Spirals, Twisters, Risers, Multidimensional resonators, Distorted screamers, Alien pipes, Analog underground pipes and tubes, Organic sweeps, High pitched howling sounds, Funky twisters, Metal FX, Acid analog rave sound FXs, analog modular textures and pads, Electrostatic pulsations, Mysterious modular atmospheres, Alchemical bubbling sounds, UFO analog patches, Extraterrestrial atmospheres, Dark atmospheric sounds, Extraterrestrial analog modular samples, Metal sounds, Nonlinear modulated twisted sounds, Short spirals and spring reverb sounds, Electron and quark sounds, Electrostatic discharges, Alien animal howling sounds and much more.

Perfect for producers looking for cinematic sound design, modular synth VST, organic analog textures, experimental plugin instruments, soundscape creation tools, psytrance sound packs, modular synth FX, atmospheric VST plugins, glitch & IDM tools, techno sound design instruments, professional sound libraries for electronic music, best vst instruments for edm, modular vst plugins for mac and windows, vst synth for ambient and cinematic music, experimental analog vst download, modular synth vst free/paid alternative.


All sounds/banks are created in a wide range of octaves, ranging from C3-C4-C5-C6-C7. This ensures maximum flexibility for your sound design needs in any DAW (e.g., FL Studio, Ableton Live, Cubase, Logic Pro, Reaper, Studio One and others).

"Inspired by the legendary Buchla Music Easel. Built by a guy who lives in a wooden cabin in the mountains! Here's his website () It's not really modular or patchable but there are some switches which are based on some of this guy's favourite patches on the Music Easel.

Features

2 Oscillators: First the Mod-Osc is a triangle-wave just a bit sinefolded. Second the Complex-Osc is a sine-wave with a powerful Wavefolder. Mod-Osc can modulate the

Complex-Osc and switch between FM & AM with depth for both. Both Oscillators can be Hard sync for FM synthesis. The Mod-Osc Pitch is bipolar & can go really low to act like an LFO. The Complex Pitch is unipolar. Both have Finetune for AM and not-synced FM harmonic research or perfectly tuning them together.

• 1 LFO Can be sine-wave or random sample&hold. Can act to the pitch of each oscillators & as the clock master for the sequencer.

•2 Lowpass gate One for the Mod Osc & second one for the Complex osc.

2 Lowpass filter One for the mod Osc & second one for the Complex osc.

• 1 Attack Applied to both Osc.

4 Step sequencer Can be set to each Osc & to the Wavefolder. Can run up or up&down. All step can be switched off.

• 2 Channel mixer One channel per oscillators.

• 1 Reverb With mix & time.

•1 Touch sensitive keyboard 13 keys with octave switch up & down which can act on each oscillators.

• 3 Touch plates With their own adjustable pitch.

• 1 Arpeggiator In order mode. Can be sustained, even on several switched octaves. Can be sync to the sequencer or have his own clock"

CONCRETE [ EARLY DEMO ]

video upload by Sasha DZA

"PRE-ORDER OPEN FOR CONCRETE: https://www.lightreft.jp/product-page...
AVAILABLE AT A SPECIAL EARLY PRICE

In this video, we share the first real world tests of Concrete, without aiming for a polished or final demonstration.

We explore how the device works as the final stage in the signal chain, as a master effect, and within a mix on an individual instrument. Throughout the video, moments where bypass is engaged are clearly marked, so it’s easy to hear exactly when Concrete is affecting the signal.

Special attention is given to saturation. We’re exploring how different drive modes interact with dynamics, not as an obvious effect, but as an integral part of the signal path.

We also demonstrate sync mode and stereo operation. The filter reveals a particularly interesting character in stereo, where the interaction between channels adds depth, movement, and a sense of space that is difficult to achieve in mono.

Preorders for Concrete are now open on our website at a reduced price for the first drop. The price will increase for future batches.

https://www.lightreft.jp/"



"Concrete is a next generation compact effects processor that combines digital sound engines with a true analog filter. Each channel features its own analog high pass and low pass filters, designed for precise and musical sound shaping.

Several drive types come preloaded, while additional engines can be downloaded from our website and loaded into free slots, allowing users to build a truly personal sound.
Channels can be used independently or linked together for cohesive stereo processing.

Concrete supports full MIDI control and naturally pairs with Monolit as part of a unified studio and performance ecosystem.

During the preorder phase, Concrete is available at a reduced price for those who want to support the project from the start.
The price will increase at release.

The first Concrete drop is planned for the first half of 2026."

Spectral Oscillators Toolkit Vol. 3 - Evolving Looping Oscillators for Cinematic Sound Design

"Available here now for €19.99 instead of €45 until January 20 2026: https://oceanswift.net/product/spectral-oscillators-toolkit-vol3/

Ocean Swift Synthesis has released Spectral Oscillators Toolkit Vol. 3, continuing its “loop-as-oscillator” approach with a newly curated batch of seamless, production-ready oscillator materials designed for modern sound design workflows. The collection includes sample oscillators, tuned tonal beds, drifting textures, and evolving drones intended to function as a playable synthesis foundation—reliable starting points that invite modulation, layering, and deep processing.

Like the previous volumes, every file is built to drop directly into samplers, sample-based synth engines, granular tools, and modular systems, making the toolkit a practical source of dependable oscillator material for both experimental and production contexts.

What’s New in Vol. 3
Vol. 3 distinguishes itself through both its source material and its sense of motion. The pack was assembled from a broad range of new recordings and sampling sessions drawn from Ocean Swift’s synth preset development, hardware sessions, and sound design workflows. These sources were then refined using updated looping, curation, and motion-focused techniques- aimed at delivering more micro-events, subtle tonal details, and evolving character, while staying clean and controlled.

"The NS1nanosynth synthesizer is an handeld 220x85mm analog modular synthesizer coupled with an Arduino Leonardo platform.

Power Supply is 5v/160mA either from the USB micro connector or the classic 5.5mm barrel jack, central positive. If you use use both concurrently, power will be drawn from the barrel jack.

Feeding the NS1 with more than a regulated 5V will result in immediately destruction of most part of the product (i.e. holy smokes + swears).

On board the synth, +12 and -12 voltages, necessary for the oscillator and the filter, are generated through a DC/DC module.

All CV control signals are 0-5V unipolar. Oscillator waveforms outputs are equally 0-5V to be able to use the on board modules to mix cv and audio signals without problems (see the ‘waveshaping’ video for an example of this)."

"From the SOMA website:

MESSEIVER is an irrational device for exploring the world of primal, wild radio reception – the way it was first experienced by the pioneers of radiocommunication.

MESSEIVER – is a shortwave receiver that is capable of receiving different stations from all around the Earth. Its peculiarity is that it doesn’t have the classic input tuning circuit, which lets you select a single station. Instead, it captures a big part of radio ether as it is. This way you can listen to many radio stations at once from around the globe. The set of stations that you can hear, their loudness and sound are defined by numbers of constantly changing global natural parameters. Weather, solar activity, cosmic particles, clouds and dozens of other phenomena define radio waves propagation, turning the world into a global DJ that makes a unique mix of radio stations here and now, exclusively for you. More details you can find in the manual and demo video.

MESSEIVER has a luxury vintage handmade build with brass inlay, wide range old school speaker, custom coil, NOS germanium diodes, vintage neon bulb and other things which make the impression and vibes of it unique."
